Everything You Need To Hold Your Own In A Sports Conversation Right Now

Athletes who won at politics + the unspoken tension between Team USA/Canada in hockey

Pro sports is having a week, and most of it happened off the field. Not to be outdone by Election Day, Amy and Scott get into the athletes who ran for office, what happened in the NHL after the US beat Canada at the Olympics (which is causing more tension than tariffs), the Knicks’ owner ring debacle that’ll make you thankful for your job, and the injury wave hitting the NFL and NBA at the same time.

Let’s discuss former wrestler Jesse Ventura winning a governor’s race after spending $250,000, Gerald Ford turning down the NFL, and Arnold barely being the starting point.

The Curses Haunting Sports

A Goat, A KFC Statue + A Video Game

It’s Halloween week, and sports fans are the most superstitious people alive. This week, Amy and Scott get into the curses behind some of the biggest droughts and collapses in sports history, including one playing out in the NFL right now.

There’s a Broadway play that cost the Red Sox 84 years, a billy goat kicked out of Wrigley Field, and a video game cover that has Eagles fans paying very close attention. This episode covers the curses worth knowing and the ones you can use in a conversation tonight.

Neither Team Has Ever Won It All. Here’s Your World Series Cheat Sheet.

Let’s talk Fall Classic.

This week Amy and Scott cover the Milwaukee Brewers, the Tampa Bay Rays, and everything you need to hold your own in any World Series conversation this week, from the wild backstories, the characters, and the things nobody else is going to tell you to look for.

The NBA Season Preview: A Scandal, A Helicopter, + A Doodle Dad Who Hosted SNL

The NBA’s biggest story this season has nothing to do with basketball

The NBA season hasn’t even started yet, and there’s already a helicopter, a Pulitzer Prize investigation, and a team that lost five draft picks because a podcast caught them cheating.

This week Amy and Scott break down what’s worth knowing before the first game tips off.

They get into:

LeBron James in year 24, joining the Philadelphia 76ers on a veteran’s minimum salary and commuting by Fanatics helicopter from New York City while his jersey breaks all-time sales records in 48 hours
How Michael Rubin, Fanatics, and the former 76ers owner all connect to get LeBron to Philly for less money
Giannis out of Milwaukee and into Miami, and why the Eastern Conference just got a lot more interesting
The Clippers losing five first-round draft picks after a journalist’s podcast revealed they paid Kawhi Leonard through fake jobs to get around the salary cap.
Steve Ballmer fined $30M and banned from team activities for a year, including the All-Star Game at his own arena, the Intuit Dome.
The New York Knicks as defending champions for the first time in 53 years, and why Jalen Brunson is genuinely easy to root for
New NBA draft lottery rules designed to stop teams from losing on purpose, and whether they’ll actually work

How NFL Wives Are Secretly Running The Offensive Playbook

Everything you’ll want to know about NFL play calling

Football is on every weekend, but play calling is what happens every 40 seconds that nobody around you can actually explain. Here's what's really going on.

Every NFL play starts with a code- a 30-word call the quarterback hears through a receiver built into his helmet, translates in real time, and repeats to the entire huddle before the mic cuts off at the 15-second mark. Amy and Scott break it all down: the green dot, the equity rule, what Kyle Shanahan's play calls actually sound like, why Netflix's Quarterback showed Case Keenum's wife calling out plays from the kitchen, and why Colts co-owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon (photo above) is on the sidelines with a headset every game.

You will never watch a snap the same way again.

October Is Like Christmas For Sports. Here's How To Sound Like You Knew That.

The month where everything is happening at once

October is the month when sports come up everywhere from work, happy hour, your family group chat- and it's all happening at once. Here's what you actually need to know.

Two leagues are starting. Four are in the playoffs. The NFL is playing in London and Paris. F1 is in Austin with Post Malone on Saturday night. Amy and Scott get into it all, from the Mets spending $344M and missing the playoffs to why they weld the manhole covers shut before the Singapore Grand Prix.

Your couch is going to be tired. This episode gets you ready for the conversations without even having to turn on a game.

The Game Day Fits Conversation Nobody Is Having (But Should Be)

The sideline is a runway if you know where to look

You've been watching the players. But have you been looking at the coaches?

Amy and Scott are diving into one of the most overlooked conversations in sports: game day fits on the sideline. What coaches are allowed to wear, what they're not, and why it's completely different depending on the sport. And as Scott puts it, if you don't even care about sports, this one involves fashion, and that's enough.

This week they cover:

Why baseball coaches are dressed like the players, and the late 1800s tradition behind it
The NFL's dress code, why suits have been banned since the nineties, and Kyle Shanahan's very real beef with this season's issued hats
Jim Harbaugh wearing cleats on the Chargers sideline and why his players started asking for them.
Kim Mulkey coaching LSU in feathers, rhinestones, and heels, because if you win enough, you can channel your inner Dolly Parton and wear whatever you want
Dawn Staley bringing Gucci and Jordans to the South Carolina sideline, and what her new Nike deal means for this season.
Rick Pitino's white suit, Danny Hurley's barely-surviving lucky suit, and what happens when you wear a white shirt and sweat through it on national television
Why the NHL is basically the last sport still in suits, and nobody is questioning it

There's always something to talk about in sports that has nothing to do with what's happening on the field. You just have to know where to look.

The Football Questions You've Been Too Afraid To Ask. We're Answering Them.

What most NFL players didn’t even know.

You still have questions. Honestly? Same.

After two episodes breaking down college and NFL football, Amy and Scott are back to fill in all the blanks on the stuff that goes over everyone's head, the things you don't know how to bring up, and the questions you've been afraid to ask out loud.

This week they get into:

Why the ball is physically different between college and the NFL, and how it messed up one of the best receivers in the league when he got to the pros
One foot vs. two feet, clock management, and why overtime in college and the NFL are completely different animals
The ref who just threw that flag probably has a real job on Monday, and what that job actually looks like (and how much they get paid)
How the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders changed everything
The 11 teams that now have male cheerleaders and the six that don't have any at all
Explaining the Bills Mafia with their tables, bowling ball shots and a 20-foot table in the brand-new stadium.
Auburn's toilet papering tradition, and why you do not mess with those trees.

The NFL Conversation Is Coming. Here's How You Walk Into It Confidently.

Here's what to know before everyone starts talking.

The NFL is back, and this season feels different before it's even started.

For the first time ever, the league is playing on four continents, in seven countries, and the first game of the season isn't even in the United States. This is not the league from five years ago, and that has nothing to do with Taylor Swift.

Amy and Scott are back to get you set up for success when it comes to talking about the world of football. Whether it comes up at the office, happy hour, or wherever sports are on in the background, this episode is your conversation starter.

This week they're getting into:

The NFL's full 180 on touchdown celebrations and what's still going to get you fined (RIP finger guns)
The LA Rams pulling out all the big guns with Myles Garrett and Aaron Donald on the same defensive line
Baker Mayfield in Tampa with his mosquito energy (in the best possible way)
The international schedule, including a first-ever game in Paris and a season opener at the Melbourne Cricket Ground
Rookie debut patches are the coolest new thing you'll spot on a jersey all season
And the full-time job of figuring out where to actually watch the games this year

You don't have to watch anything on TV. We've got you.

You can always catch us between podcasts at www.lastnightsgame.com or on social media. If you love us, leave us a review wherever you listen to your podcasts. And if you have feedback or questions, you can email us at theteam@lastnightsgame.com.
