he Bristol Boys—Don, Angry Jay, and Mac Daddy—are back for their October 16th, 2025 episode, with studio engineer Kevin "Ross Crocker" and a special in-studio appearance by their chief sponsor, Joe Moriello, SVP of Capital Securities.

Sponsors:

• Capital Securities ("A Life Well Planned")
• Skygazer Brewing

The episode kicks off with the hosts' World Series picks before diving straight into frustrating "Yankee off-season business." Don, fresh from attending the Yankees' final playoff game, delivers a passionate rant about the "lame" and "embarrassing" stadium atmosphere, criticizing fans for sitting quietly with two strikes. This leads to a larger critique of the Yankee organization under Hal Steinbrenner and Brian Cashman, with the crew frustrated that no changes are expected despite fan outrage. The hosts then run a rapid-fire "In or Out" segment on potential Yankee free agents, emphatically rejecting players like Cody Bellinger, Paul Goldschmidt, and Jonathan Loáisiga.

After a "Say What" segment quizzing the hosts on famous baseball quotes from players like Manny Ramirez and Kevin Millar, the conversation shifts to the NFL mid-season. The crew declares the 5-1 Indianapolis Colts the league's biggest surprise and the Baltimore Ravens the biggest disappointment. They also debate the elite status of Jalen Hurts, with most hosts ranking several other quarterbacks ahead of him.

Don Father then takes over for his "Fantasy 101" segment. He provides crucial advice on navigating upcoming trade rumors and a heavy Week 8 bye schedule. Key start/sit advice includes starting Jordan Love and Breece Hall while sitting the Seattle running backs. In a bold move, he advises a listener to start Daniel Jones over Jalen Hurts.

The main event of the show is Angry Jay's Bracket Challenge to crown the Best UConn Point Guard of All Time. The hosts debate a 16-player bracket, which ultimately leads to a star-studded Final Four: (1) Kemba Walker vs. (4) Doron Sheffer and (3) Shabazz Napier vs. (2) Khalid El-Amin. After a final debate, Kemba Walker is crowned the winner, defeating Shabazz Napier in the championship.

The episode wraps up with the "President's Cup" name association game and a bonus segment on NBA season over/unders, where the hosts give their predictions for the Celtics, Knicks, Lakers, and more.

It's Gonna Be May! Talking NBA Playoffs, NFL Draft Drama, and Ranting on Rants!

Welcome back! It's May 1st, and the sports world is buzzing. This episode kicks off with a look back at a "special night" and a nod to Justin Timberlake before diving headfirst into the action. We're down to two major sponsors, including Skygazer with their new raspberry lemonade shandy, perfect for the coming spring-summer season. Plus, our main sponsor, Joe Morello, Senior Vice President of Capital Security, is in the house to remind us that "a life well planned" is key.

Then, hold onto your hats as the rants begin! From the increasing level of disrespect and "rub it in" culture in sports, exemplified by the Bucks-Pacers series fallout and over-the-top bat flips, to the excessive celebrations around high school signing days and senior nights (and don't even get us started on all the baseball padding!), no topic is safe. We question the value of celebrating every little thing and ponder if it's more about the parents than the athletes.

We shift gears to the NFL Draft, discussing the surprising slide of Shador Sanders and the potential headaches he might bring to an NFL locker room. Is talent enough, or does character and "team culture" matter more? The Giants, Steelers, Falcons, and Jets' draft decisions are dissected, with strong opinions on who won and who "shit the bed."

The NBA Playoffs are in full swing, and we break down the matchups, debating whether experience trumps young talent and if the Celtics are the clear favorites. Plus, an emergency press conference with our youngest guest ever provides some bold predictions and unexpected takes on NBA greats.

Baseball is underway, and the Yankees are in first place thanks to Aaron Judge, who's putting up incredible numbers. But questions linger about injured veterans and whether the young guys should take the reins. We also touch on the Red Sox and their promising farm system.

Finally, we play a lively round of "Who Would You Rather Manage Your Kid?" featuring a bracket of iconic baseball skippers, leading to some passionate debates and a surprising champion. We wrap up with a quick Mount Rushmore of jersey numbers and some random sports trivia.

Tune in for hot takes, spirited arguments, and a deep dive into the current state of sports!
