The "Pack-A-Day" Podcast's Andy Herman

Czabe gives longtime co-host, mentor, and friend ANDY POLLIN his just desserts for a massive career in DC sports radio, as the two recount the many great guests and episodes they had doing "The Sports Reporters." The Jayden Daniels #5 thing has jumped contain and gone viral, but what is the ultimate lesson to be learned here? Pat McAfee puts out an album. Better than Shaq's rap albums, but not as good as Terry Bradshaw's country discs. MORE.....Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Czabe welcomes back MR. X to the pod, as it's been a while. It was a tough summer for him, as he lost his father. But I get the "Growing Up X" backstory, including how he was on a youth soccer team that ran the table on everybody in Northern Virginia. We talk about baseball, and the looking shutdown after the season. The Skubal trade and if it made sense. What lit a spark under the Red Sox, and are there similarities to the 2003 Marlins. Who knows who is good in college football with all of the NIL mayhem? Mike Trout's "Red Wedding" golf outing at the trade deadline. To Survive or Not to Survive, that is the question.

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN from Fantasy Football World to talk about the usual wide range of topics. Including Kyler Murray winning the QB1 job in Minnesota, Claude's decision to watermark all their AI-written output to deter cheaters, fantasy emasculation, Red Flag keepaway, Ross Tucker, the Stench of Russini, what happened to Chris Berman's ass, and much more.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Czabe interviews a guy who made it out of drab Human Resources and is now a fixture covering the Green Bay Packers, Andy Herman. How he did it, and what he learned along the way. The new Highmark Field is getting low marks for seat obstructions and tinytrons, not jumbotrons. Their "Nickel City" alt's aren't doin' great either. The Fall Guy calls it a career. New Fantasy Punishment. Kapernick show. Plus listener feedback and #elitetweets. MORE....Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

The Pro Football Hall of Fame weekend is in the books, but not before just the 3rd kicker inducted into the Hall, Adam Vinitieri, decided to dunk on his former coach in New England's face with several searing one-liners. The bigger problem with the HOF induction process. Sophie Cunningham gets clotheslined, and yet her own coach defended the player who did it! Now two ex-NBA players threaten to call the W's bluff on transgender players. You can't just flag down a 737 like it's an Uber. Phillies "superfan" pays big money just to call one inning of baseball on TV. Akron's viral play-calling promotion. #EliteTweets and listener feedback.

Czabe recounts his jam-packed day of adult man-fun with Josh Albrecht, Eric Gitter, and Bryan Wolf in Milwaukee. It was fun to see the roles reversed on who sucks, and who is good in the two different sports. Christian Yelich is hard to watch at the plate right now, but imagine how hard it is for guys who were former apex predator-caliber athletes to simply stink at their sport? We learn about the Wisconsin State Fair and what a " Sporkie " is as Josh admits his wife is more into the crazy foods than he is. Plus, LIV 2.0 is a "go" (we think) but it's more like a move into hospice care, for a bad idea, that was never ever going to make money.

Surely, CBS doesn't want "out" of the Romo business, do they? Well... maybe. Just maybe. Hard to believe, with all of the far worse stuff that broadcasters have been accused of, that Romo might lose his $18 million a year TV gig over a garden-variety DUI. But here we are. Also in the episode, Who Killed the Switchboard, Tank Commanders, Smack the Rookie Kicker, MARTY CONWAY from Georgetown talking sports business, FIFA, LIV, MLB lockouts and Goodell. BMW hijacks owners' NAV screens; the miracle of Neuralink could be on the doorstep. MORE...Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Czabe is in Green Bay, WI, home of the Packers, to observe a day of football practice up close. Mind you, it's not even a tackle practice, but it's still enough of a close encounter with athletic freaks that it makes you appreciate the NFL even more for the $25 billion annual spectacle that it is. Aaron Rodgers kept receipts, and he cashed 'em all in on McAfee. But was he "right?" Jerry shops for curtains. Bunt brawl in a rainstorm. Deshaun, please read the room. And these may just be the "good ol' days" so you better enjoy them while you are in them. MORE....Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Czabe gets behind the hibachi and just cooks today, solo. As the Dodgers really have broken baseball, and people's brains with a deal for ace pitcher Tarik Skubal, that does not pass the smell test. Is it collusion, or just giving up? Why baseball is different than football, for 500 million different reasons. The origin story of "Number 1 Bullshit" and also "Let Him Cook!" Plus thanks for getting me out of Russian prison, but I don't think this relationship is working out. Adult summer camp? Sign me up!

Czabe welcomes his Utah friend PAUL CHARCHIAN to the pod, as they discuss his decision to get internet from "Mike" in the neighborhood, instead of Starlink. Idiot. The Guinness count was off the charts in Ireland. Charch has thoughts on Fauci taking the 5th. The Kyle Shanahan crash story is entering "aurora borealis" levels of non-believability. Tony Romo bodycam footage doesn't look great. Is "strict" Monopoly actually a good board game? (Spoiler: no). Czabe has his "Hedy Lamarr" star turn a with a lengthy, but fascinating bit of facts about a bird, you may not have even been aware of.
