2ND CAMP PRACTICE RECAP: Washington's defense chews up the offense and JP interviews Carson Wentz Jul 28, 2022

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey have analysis of a defensively-oriented practice, but first, they react to Antonio Gandy-Golden's out-of-nowhere retirement. After processing that news, the guys then give their summary of the day's action, including which defenders were in particular feasting. They also touch on the lack of fans in attendance so far. The show concludes this time with JP interviewing Carson Wentz, as the quarterback describes his daily camp schedule, his bond with the receivers and who the most famous person in his phone is (you'll recognize the name he gives). If you like podcasts where the intro sounds just a little different and Mitch gives you the scoop on a sweet Curtis Samuel juke, then this is the episode for you.

1ST CAMP PRACTICE RECAP: Antonio Gibson's absence, Carson Wentz's debut day and JP's 1-on-1 with Terry McLaurin Jul 27, 2022

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey are coming at you after the Commanders' first on-field get-together of training camp — one that Antonio Gibson unfortunately missed. So, to start, the guys each give their concern levels of Gibson's hamstring issue. From there, they pass along their thoughts on Carson Wentz's performance and podium session and do their beloved One Thing segment, where JP identifies an early sleeper on the D-line and Pete compliments himself obnoxiously. To close, you'll hear JP's 1-on-1 with Terry McLaurin, where the receiver explains what he's making of his new quarterback as well as one area he badly wants to get better in on the outside. If you like podcasts where Mitch passes along an insightful Jamin Davis nugget and JP looks back on his high school graduation, then this is the episode for you.

TRAINING CAMP EVE: When can we expect Chase Young to return? Plus, Pete talks to three major skill players Jul 27, 2022

Show notes

A very, very enthusiastic JP Finlay joins Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey for this eve-of-training-camp Washington Football Talk. To start, the trio breaks down the main takeaways from Ron Rivera's opening press conference, which included his comments on Chase Young's status. Based on what Ron said, when can the Commanders expect to see him take the field? The hosts are various levels of rattled. After moving on from the coach's comments, the guys cover Washington's proposed lyrics for its revamped fight song. Lastly, you'll get three Pete 1-on-1s (which he got at an Easterns Automotive commercial shoot) where he catches up with Terry McLaurin, Curtis Samuel and Antonio Gibson. Each starter covers football and non-football topics during their interviews. If you like podcasts where Pete tries and fails to execute a car swap with Curtis Samuel and JP remixes 'Twas The Night Before Christmas quite poorly, then this is the episode for you.

Booger McFarland thinks Chase Young could approach 20 sacks?!?! Also, early-but-useful Bears and Packers previews Jul 21, 2022

Show notes

JP Finlay and Pete Hailey open this Washington Football Talk by reacting to some very eye-catching comments from Booger McFarland about Chase Young. After going back and forth on that, the pair toss to two more opponent previews, as Cam Ellis gives the scoop on the Bears and Pete Dougherty provides info on the Packers. The Commanders will see those squads in Weeks 6 and 7 this year, which means learning about them is necessary. If you like podcasts where you get to hear about Chicago's issues and end up potentially feeling better about where Washington's at and Pete makes a FedEx Field/Lambeau Field joke, then this is the episode for you.

Talking through fan attendance at training camp, plus our early-but-useful Cowboys and Titans previews Jul 18, 2022

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey open up this Washington Football Talk by talking through the Commanders' training camp in Ashburn and if the club is doing enough to engage with its fans during camp. They also briefly touch on Terry McLaurin's Madden rating, which leads to a randomly-heated exchange about video games as a whole. Once the trio is finished with their intro, they welcome on Bobby Belt and Jim Wyatt, who cover the Cowboys and Titans respectively. Both guests do a top-notch job previewing the Commanders' Week 4 and Week 5 opponents. If you like podcasts where Pete unwittingly insults JP and Mitch's age and they are not very fond of him for doing so, then this is the episode for you.

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey aren't joined by Charles Barkley in this Washington Football Talk, yet it's still a quality show. First, the guys give the latest on Dan Snyder's back-and-forth with the House Oversight Committee and then debate whether RG3 belongs in the Commanders' greatest 90 players ever. After those segments, the guys welcome on NBC Sports Philadelphia's Dave Zangaro, who was excellent on Carson Wentz, Jalen Hurts and the Eagles' chances to compete in 2022. If you like podcasts where JP gives a very unique intro and you get some seriously-good info on Washington's new starting QB, then this is the episode for you.

THE CHARLES BARKLEY POD: Chuck joins to talk Carson Wentz, the Commanders' 2022 win total and blackjack Jul 11, 2022

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey can't wait to present this Washington Football Talk to you because of their guest for the show: The legendary Charles Barkley. Thanks to a few emails and some good luck, the guys were able to chat with Chuck about the Commanders needing to bring Washington football back to relevancy, Carson Wentz's fall from grace, an ex-Cowboy who plays blackjack very poorly and a few other top-notch topics. It's up there for one of the better interviews ever on this show, so you'll enjoy it. After the high of that passes, though, the three also have to react to the Commanders' poor rollout of their 90th anniversary plans, most notably the player vote they're trying to pull off. If you like podcasts where Charles bleeping Barkley is a part of the proceedings, then this is the episode for you.
