031: The NFL for the Rest of Us – Quarterbacks, Watch Parties, and What Not to Say
Want to enjoy the NFL without memorizing the playbook? This episode is your ultimate NFL crash course—from what happens in the off-season to how the salary cap actually works (spoiler: it’s complicated but kind of fascinating). We break down the preseason drama, explain what to look for during games (even if you don’t know the rules), and serve up a cheat sheet of quarterback names and spicy soundbites. Plus, we spotlight the Irsay sisters, who just became the NFL’s only all-female ownership group. Whether you’re fantasy football curious or just trying to survive Sunday watch parties, this episode will have you sounding like you belong.
