2026 Was Unpredictable ... Or Was it?

So that happened. The brothers react to the season that was before looking back at their pre-season predictions. And get very very drunk. Can you blame them? We certainly don't blame you.

We will be dropping down to one episode a week for the month of October and plan on doing two episodes in November. We will determine the schedule beyond as the off-season picture becomes clearer.

On the cocktail side of things, today Matthew is drinking a Brandy Crusta while Ben is drinking ... a Negroni. Recipes below.
