Gojo and Golic dive into the unfortunate news that not only did 2009’s “The Blind Side’ paint retired NFL star Michael Oher negatively but according to Oher, the story was built on a lie.
(01:08) - Former Ole Miss star and first-round pick, Michael Oher revealed in court documents that unlike the narrative pushed in the movie and real life, Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy did not adopt him. Instead, they tricked the then-18-year-old Oher into signing a conservatorship that allowed the Tuohys to negotiate deals on his behalf. (03:33) Golic says there should be receipts to validate everything Michael Oher claims, especially his receiving zero dollars for the success of “The Blind Side” while ‘his family’ saw a cut from the film.
(05:30) - Gojo compares this situation with Michael Oher and the Tuohys to the NCAA and their entire exploitative model for success before discussing how former Ole Miss Head Football coach, Hugh Freeze stands as one of the major beneficiaries of the lies that sold to sell ‘Michael Oher’s story.’
(10:50) - Gojo breaks down just how damning “The Blind Side” was to Michael Oher’s image and how he handled the narratives pushed throughout the film before we hear sound from Michael Oher himself on what bothered him most about how he was portrayed in the movie. (14:17) Golic sheds light on the shady moves made by the Tuohy family, proving just how exploitative they were being with Michael Oher as his co-conservators. 
(18:10) - ZACK MARTIN GOT PAID! The Golics update Zack Martin’s reworked contract with the Dallas Cowboys, Zeke Elliott's deal with the New England Patriots, and Dalvin Cook signing with the New York Jets.
(23:20) - Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja’Marr Chase joins the show on behalf of Sleep Number! Ja’Marr talks with Gojo and Golic about partnering with his former teammate Justin Jefferson for a commercial, following his NFL career from afar, and borrowing from each other’s game. (26:30) Gojo asks Chase how Joe Burrow’s calf has been recovering and the evolution of Burrow’s game from college to the NFL. Ja’Marr Chase talks about what this team has done for Bengals fans in Cincinnati, what goals he’s set out for himself this season, and his ongoing war of worlds with Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce. (33:00) Ja’Marr ends his time with Gojo and Golic talking about the woes of training camp, the Bengals’ newest DBs, and a fun fact about Cincinnati Head Coach Zac Taylor.
(38:45) - This, That, and the Third: Anthony Richardson named QB1 for the Indianapolis Colts, Jason Kelce documentary hitting the streaming streets to kick off the NFL season, and the first college football Top 25 AP was released!
