CzabeCast

Czabe recaps another chock-full weekend of pro and college storylines. ANDY POLLIN joins him to go through the most important. Including Brian Kelly's petulant reporter outburst after their win against Florida. Also, the Chiefs are 0-2, but is it "Oh-and-Tombstone" for the season? The Bears fans are beyond despondent. Deshaun Foster leads an early college football bloodletting. Nico drops the bag, big time. Arch Manning must just be ASS. Paul Finebaum abandons ship! Brandon Aubrey is the NFL's ultimate weapon. The Tush Push continues to be un-officiatable. MORE....

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to discuss the latest Niners woes, and a reminder that all kickers have an expiration date - like milk! Also, Charch tells the time he sweet-talked his way out of a ticket in Wisconsin. Czabe says don't bother asking him for "things to do, and places to eat" recommendations. Forget Usain Bolt, how about "Insane Bolt." MORE....

The MNF Season opener saw Chicago pick up where we last left off: awful, losing, football. A promising start by Caleb Williams devolved into the usual Chicago farce, capped off by one of the dumbest coaching decisions we've seen in a long time. Mr. X joins me to break it down and look ahead to Week #2, starting Thursday. Also, somebody should maybe get Coach Callahan a freakin' rule book! MORE . . .

The reason a barrel-chested, born-on-the-1-yard line idiot like Roger Goodell can be made the commissioner of the NFL, and the league still thrives, is because its product is more powerful and pure than Walter White's sky blue crystal meth. And the Bills' comeback against the Ravens proved it, once again. CZABE flies solo today, and has a lot of NFL mop-up, plus a reminder that selling your tickets, or leaving early, remains a purely "business decision" you, as a fan, are entitled to! Plus, listener feedback, and another reminder why Czabe is almost never on Facebook! MORE....

Czabe recaps a story-filled Week 1 of the NFL Season, with Rodgers win vs. the Jets as a headline. For a guy who protests how much he doesn't "care" he sure does remember a lot of shit. Move over Andre Kristacovitchlalinski Jr. Andre Szymt says "hold my beer." ANDY POLLIN on the Commanders win, and our showdown coming Thursday night at Lambeau. The Packers defense looks absolutely sick with Micah Parsons. The Final Karen Boss showed her face in Miami. Why Andy would have never backed down, and why I think he's missing the bigger picture. MORE.....

Czabe delivers a MONSTER double-episode today (for FREE! no less!) with both PAUL CHARCHIAN and MR X. Charch talks about the time he got Randy Moss and Robert Smith to sit down for a promotion with his fantasy football magazine - for free! Also, why was Moss insulted? He was only ranked the 40th best WR before he ever caught a pass. Is there too much info out there today, to have somebody like this really flip the league on it's head right away? Also, why the Commanders RB depth chart has a lot of fantasy players freaked out...

Granted, it's only one game..... but... what a turd in "Chapel Bill" on Monday night. And of course, his perky girlfriend is gonna catch a lot of heat as this thing circles the drain this year, but something tells me she might actually relish it. Manage your own hype, people! The Giant #43 has been retired! Mike Gundy re-makes a classic. Coaches taking pot shots at each other. Dude Wipes meets the perfect sponsor opportunity. Apple Pay is real money, you guys! Rules for thee, but not for me. Free buses! MORE.....

Czabe comes in HOT after a great Week 1 start to college football. Kalen DeBoer is finding out just what massive expectations he is facing as head coach of the empire that The Nicktator built. The secret to Saban's success. ANDY POLLIN joins the show to discuss Lee Corso's send-off and the shameful way ESPN decided to "ship" him to The 'Shoe. Curly Lambeau's number is coming off the shelf for Micah Parsons in GB. A total jerk snatches a free hat at Flushing Meadows. MORE.....

Czabe welcomes KEVIN SHEEHAN of the Team980 and the Kevin Sheehan podcast to discuss the upcoming NFL season. Full of questions, they try to ask the single most pressing question for all 32 teams. Plus, the "Smell Test" finally makes sense! Media moves on the edge of the football season take shape, Fox loses John Fanta. Bright Orange Shark (Do-Do-Di-Doo-Ti-Doo!) and the legend of Ben Griffin add a Ryder Cup chapter. Also: ChatGPT isn't your bitch. MORE....

Czabe flies solo today. So much good #content.

Czabe welcomes back Mr. X for his first weekly run of the football season. He also has a story about his boat-buying fiasco this summer. The boys run through the NFL Division Odds, and who might be sleeper teams. Shockingly, the good stay good, while the bad are almost daring themselves to be even worse!

Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN, who has binged the Netflix series about Jerry and the Cowboys. And while it may be overly gentle to Jerry's recent run of playoff futility, it's got a lot of good nuggets in there. The boys also discuss how nobody knows what the right amount of pre-season is for starters, the latest Shedeur nonsense, and just how cheap the Bengals are. Cheaper than you can imagine. ESPN has to delete a tweet promoting their app, calling it "all the legends." Another low mark for the network in the Connecticut woods. Also, Southwest has put the...

Czabe enjoys a POWER LUNCH with his favorite "older brothers" in sports media, CHRIS KNOCHE and STEVE BUCKHANTZ. Coach K tells the story of point shaving from when he coached D1 hoops in the 90's, Buck is oblivious to the entire Michigan scandal. Auburn just decided to land grab some national titles, because fuck it, why not? When will some D1 football teams exhaust themselves chasing money, and just bow out? NBA security guard sells $1.9M in stolen game-worn Heat jerseys. Does it make sense to "bet the under" on your own life? MORE....

Czabe welcomes CHRIS MCNEIL (aka: "reflog_18) who is a longtime Ohio and Cleveland native who has one of the sharpest knives on twitter about all things Browns, Indians, Cavs and more. Will Deshaun Watson take another snap in a Browns jersey again? Is Shedeur the real hope? Can the Indians save their sinking season? Also Czabe talks about the Colts choosing the Daniel Jones-town kook aid death, instead of seeing any more of 48% passer Anthony Richardson. Also, did you know: "She's an AG!"

Hard to believe a cable channel owned and operated and devoted to the most popular sports in America would become a beast of burden. But alas, here we are. The NFL was happy to dump NFL Network into ESPN's lap, and guest MARTY CONWAY, professor of sports business and marketing comes on to explain exactly how. Meanwhile, Jon Gruden and Brian Flores are entering the RedZone on their potentially damaging lawsuits against The Shield. Male cheerleaders ain't new, but what about dance team members? Adults at Disney on the rise. MORE . . .

The (rubber) hammer came down on Michigan last week, and predictably, nobody is happy. Even though they'll never live down the "Scarlet C" for the 2023 Natty, the Wolverine faithful can at least keep their t-shirts and coffee mugs. ANDY POLLIN joins the podcast, as we discuss a new low of WTF from ESPN the "WorldWide Leader" in increasing stupidity. Also "congrats" here's 2/3 of a new Toyota. MORE.....

Czabe is back off his deathbed (SAWFT) and welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to the show. The boys talk about how awful the Pohlad Family is in Minnesota and how they are not going anywhere, nearly shooting your eye out with a BB gun, fantasy football August storylines developing, why golf is great, and how Rice Krispies treats are what elite athletes eat.**sometimes

CzabeCast for Monday August 11, 2025

Czabe is back in studio, sounding crystal clear, and ready to rip on a number of juicy stories in sports. Starting with the continued idiocy of Gilbert Arenas getting busted for running illegal poker games. Then to the details on Marcus Morris and his bad checks/markers in Vegas. And then the inevitable dumping of Shannon Sharpe by ESPN. Also, Sophie Cunningham has Caitlyn Clark's back. Mark Schlereth tries to stuff the NFL numbers "nerds" into a locker. And it was a bad week for the WNBA when it comes to wigs and dildos. MORE.....

The CTE Bogeyman is poised for another stupid comeback. Tony Pettiti wants a "Play-In" college football weekend, with a guaranteed 4-4-2-2-1-3 model. Let's pray it never happens. Sydney Sweeney is apparently a Nazi. Still... *would.* Never fight. Ever. Run, instead. The ultra-woke left knows no limits on crazy. Odds of making the NFL. Musk tunnelling under Nashville. RIP Ryne Sandberg. Un-self-aware social media accounts. Are the A's really *building* a new stadium, or just pretending? Luca Doncic is ripped! Mom with the buzzer-beater insult to daughter. MORE.....

Christian Wilkins cut by the Raiders over "bizarre incident". Homophobia apparently is not dead in the NFL. Emmanuel Clase lands on the MLB's gambling investigation list. Prime Time beats bladder cancer. Shout out to the versatile hottie, The Big Unit, Hannah Waddingham. Bryce Harper stares down The Commish. "Resetting your girl's router." Aaron Rodgers with a great answer on Bradshaw, but still playing it coy on his wife. Walk off tweet. MORE....

Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN as he is back from his weekend of golf at Erin Hills in Wisconsin with his no-account middle-aged buddies. They talk about Hulk Hogan and Ozzy, and of course, Andy only knows them from "other things" they did after they were already famous. NFL training camps are already getting dicey and spicy. Does it even make sense to track Dylan Gabriel, Kenny Pickett, Sheduer Sanders and Joe Flacco in practice? Memories of the old absurd days of Dan Snyder-led training camps, selling parking, t-shirts, and sno-cones. And most importantly, if a single baseball writer is...

Czabe rides solo today and celebrates the incomparable story arc and life of one John Michael Osbourne. RIP, Ozzy! Why he became a mainstream pop culture icon. NFL players are running into the paywall as camps open up. Why the franchise tag continues to be the worst thing that ever happened to the union. The odds of "Redskins" making a return have never been higher, but are they actually high to begin with? College coaches are sniping each other and it's not even August! Czabe awaits his Masters lottery fate. The Stephen Colbert cope is off the charts. South...

Pity the poor Cowboy fan. Doomed to loud and sometimes comical failure by an octagenerian who still thinks he's the smartest man in pro football. SCOTT LINN and STEVE SOLOMON join me a on rare Tuesday where you get the OG's for FREE this week! We talk NFL news cycle ramping up, Mike Brown's big ol' Charlie Brown head, "bald bias" in media and advertising, Steelers throwbacks, therapy piano horses and a whole lot more! Enjoy!

Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN for the usual Monday chat, despite his lingering uvul-itis. The NFLPA has had not one, but two officers resign since we last gathered here on the CzabeCast! And the first guy had a real thing for company-reimbursed strip-club visits! Hoo boy! NFL Training camps are opening for business! WNBA players decide to negotiate via t-shirt slogans. Let's see how it works! Scottie Scheffler wins another (ho hum) major. And the iron-clad rule of life: pussy is undefeated. The Astronomer CEO scandal at the Coldplay concert. MORE.....

PAUL CHARCHIAN. Are rocks a "yard?" Good fences make good neighbors. Utah Jazz chatter, hard to find. Who is AJ Dybansta. Ranked choice voting. Minnesota's Somali influx. How do they endure the cold? Charch's dad's driver's license quagmire. The law-abiding get punished. Utah driving test. Shamar Stewart is ready to wait out the Bengals. Maybe. Najee Harris' eye injury is not as "minor" as they said. Firework disasters. "Hey, hoser, nice toque."

Cal Raleigh wins the HR derby. Why not make it even longer! I'm skeptical about the inch-accuracy you claim, MLB. "I'm an influencer. Cater to my whims!" Weird flex, bro. So midget hires are not cool? The Diesel wrecks RG3. Stat of the Day. Scary Terry, meets skimpy Commanders. Bruno Mars is almost out of debt. Maybe. Shitty take, A-Rod. Never change. One year later, we still know basically nothing. The laws of economics don't care about your feelings. Superfans, gonna superfan. Get your tickets early. Way early. Chicken or fish? Philosophy for Life, Part 1. Then, Part 2. You built...

Czabe rides solo. Johnny Furphy with maybe the greatest dunk in caucasian history. Poor Noa Essenque. The Joy is gone. Shakeup at FS1. More careers ruined by sexual overdrive. Listener feedback. No more Dan Snyder talk? Sneaking up on the full name and logo restoration. Canadian nice, or simple accountability? Take the left at Albuquerque. I married an Irsay. MORE....

Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN on a Monday. Among the items discussed: MLB All Star break. Jacob Miserowski. Mark "The Bird" Fydrich. Horrible ways to die. Monday Night Baseball. Chris Berman. 50 Years at ESPN? The Ageless Linda Cohn. Open Championship. The Lerner Era with Nationals. Who wouldn't want to own a baseball team? The Commanders attempt to placate the name and logo holdouts. NIL Go is now NIL "No!" Bill Ackman is a shameless tennis whore. Jack Sock. Uvula talk. MORE....

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to talk about his pool quote, the "Hello Utah" song's very slutty past, how long he has to drive to get a pizza, Southwest Airlines and thunderstorms, plus a great Onterrio Smith story and more.....

Our family lost our rock in May, as my dad passed at the age of 86. He had a magnificent life, and was the best father a kid could have. I share some thoughts about the times I spent with him, and the lessons I learned.

Cardi B "Cheated On" By Stefon Diggs? The Epstein client list? What client list? Max Homa has haters. Joey Chestnut vs. Usain Bolt. Pacers covering their asses. Death by volcano. Micro-retirement? Punter has zero toughness. Deshaun finds true love.*

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Miami Dolphins uncorked a sexy surprise trade on Monday, dealing All-Pro safety Minka Fitzpatrick to the Dolphins for perennially unhappy and expensive CB Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu (My Jonnu) Smith. A Disney Cruise becomes "nightmare fuel" for everyday parents. Maybe it wasn't collusion after all. The Diddy Trial is seemingly falling apart. Things that remain an eternal mystery to me, and matter to just about nobody. MORE . . .

Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN to talk NBA free agency, LeBron James opting INTO his massive 1 year deal, and of course, the perils of reckless fireworking this week on the 4th of July. The NBA has a new gambling scandal to dig their teeth into, the Wander Franco story, Justin Tucker, and why "nothing ever happens." RIP Dave Parker. Smoking in sports. Jeff Bezos' wedding. MORE.....

Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to discuss the fun and dangers of scuba diving, why he was at a fantasy draft in Vegas in the middle of June, the NFL being caught red handed colluding on guaranteed contracts, and getting away with it, plus Dionte Johnson being a horrible team player and how Aaron Rodgers wants a season of fun, love and peace with Pittsburgh. Plus, his supposed wife seems less and less real all the time. MORE . . .

Czabe gets car-nerdy today with his guy ERIC RZENKOWSKI to talk Tesla vs. Waymo and the battle for future autonomous cars. Czabe gives his 4-month review of the Tesla Model 3. Why there's a "sweet spot" right now for EV's that will eventually tighten up or close. Why other gas cars are still wildly popular and getting better all the time. Czabe's experience buying a new Subaru with his 85 year old mom, and how did he do? Plus, early musings on what my next vehicle might be. MORE.....

While Czabe does love his older "brother" in radio ANDY POLLIN for being unapologetically Andy, there was one thing Andy said he thinks they should "do away with" in sports that is sure to make your blood boil. Also the legend of Fred Smith, founder of FedEx dies at 80. How blackjack saved his company, and why he lead the charge to oust Lil' Danny Snyder from the Redskins. Does the NBA's TV ratings really matter? How come the Wizards literally can't draft anybody good? What things are on your "I'm not doing that anymore" list? MORE....
