Description

The sports world is rounding into full dramatic nonsense shape, and Drew and Roth are on it! They’re covering the miraculous comeback of Josh Dobbs (and how much Drew screamed during it) alongside the wealth of garbage QBs starting in the National Football League. Then, they break down what’s going on in college football with forums weirdo Connor Stallions, and wrap up with Josh McDaniels and the sour apples who fall from Bill Belichick’s coaching tree. And as always, we dive into the Funbag! Do you want to hear your question answered on the pod? Well, give us a call at 909-726-3720.

Every week, Drew and Roth tackle subjects, both serious and impossibly stupid, with a parade of guests from around the world of sports and media joining in the fun! Roth and Drew also field Funbag questions from Defector readers, answer listener voicemails, and get upset about the number of people who use speakerphone while in a public bathroom stall. This is a show where everything matters, because everyone could use a Distraction. Head to defector.com for more info.

From Defector. Former Deadspin writers Drew Magary and David Roth should really stick to sports. Sure, their new indie sports podcast will break down the week in sports: the Mets grounding into quadruple plays, NBA players getting testy on the court and horny on Instagram, Bill Belichick cutting 80% of his roster just to keep himself interested, horrifying takes from sports talk radio that need to be broken down, etc. But these two men and their guests will have their fair share of off-the-field issues they’ll also have to address: stupid Funbag questions, bad tweets from bad people, pointless food arguments, and even less. Every week is a VERY long week these days. We could all use a little Distraction. Head to defector.com for more info.
