TMA (9-26-25) Hour 3 - Can't Teach These Scars Sep 26, 2025

Show notes

(00:00-16:05) Well boys, you gave it a hell of a try. Fan angst meter. Miles Mikolas most likely won't be back. We got a close out at the Ryder Cup. DeChambeau and Thomas go down. Don't say pegged. Home teams tend to be the favorite. Bummer this Cards Cubs series at Wrigley means nothing. Can't teach these scars, man. How many Ivy League listeners do we have right now?

(16:13-29:15) Ain't no sunshine. Jackson's lost the plot. Jackson could only play one song on the saxophone. Doug thought he may go to jail yesterday. Kids on leashes. What colors are Brown University? Is spinning our wheels different from clearing the deck? You need a 4.0 GPA and a 33-35 ACT to get into Yale.

(29:25-37:19) Mt. Rushmore of people that go by "Bob." Martin called Bob Costas "Bobby." Costas's career advice to Martin. Funny mascot names. We're not just spinning our wheels here.

TMA (9-26-25) Hour 2 - Nothing You Want Is In There Sep 26, 2025

Show notes

(00:00-15:38) Songs for Doug went unappreciated. Music for Martin? Has Jackson ever clapped at the end of a movie? Ryder Cup update. Not an ideal start for the Americans. Audio of Keegan Bradley getting the crowd fired up early this morning. The Bryson and Rory "beef." The golf talk is polarizing. Who blazed the trail of indoor plumbing?

(15:46-23:09) Martin's a big Doors guy. Drops of the Week. Who has the most distinct voice in St. Louis sports? Martin likes to text people at inopportune times.

(23:19-42:30) Gabe DeArmond of Power Mizzou joins us. Gabe is super concerned about Illinois claiming Homecoming. What does Gabe wanna see out of the UMass game. How much should Pribula and Hardy play tomorrow? The kicking game. What's the deal with the drop kicking? Transfers other than Hardy that have stood out. Gabe still won't be filtering voicemails.

(57:31-1:22:06) Blues broadcaster Joey Vitale checks in with us. Joey's not pumped about the JV squad. Sounds like Joey took some shots at us on BK & Ferrario. Blackhawks in town for the preseason opener on Saturday. Will we see a more traditional Blues roster on the ice? Pius Suter as the number two center. Brayden Schenn. Young guys who have stood out. International players and the language barrier. That loss to Desmet still haunts Joey. Ok, see ya Joey.

The Spread Zone | 2025 NCAA Football Week 5 & NFL Week 4 Best Bets & Picks Sep 24, 2025

Show notes

Scott Rizzuto, Anthony Stalter, and Tim McKernan return for Week 5 of college football and Week 4 of the NFL, looking to bounce back after brutal beats and close calls. Rizz tries to recover from an 0-7 meltdown, while Stalter stays scorching hot at 68% ATS. The trio dives into key college matchups like Washington–Ohio State, Ole Miss–LSU, Oregon–Penn State, and a sneaky Air Force pick, before turning to NFL value on the Seahawks, Bucs, Texans, and Ravens. With FanDuel Locks locked in and bad blood over opposite picks, this one’s full of sharp leans, bad luck therapy, and high-stakes banter.

The Spread Zone is presented by FanDuel Sportsbook.
