    All I want for Christmas is...Take the Points. The only podcast smart enough to give Mariah what she really wants. We kick off the inaugural Christmas Show by wondering... is this the inaugural Christmas Show. Spoiler: It is! Santa isn’t the only one bringing presents this time of year. We explore what could possibly be inside of the Dollar General Bowl gift bags. While some lucky boys and girls get to travel to the Bahamas or Hawaii for their bowls, others are left traveling to the Idaho Potato Bowl at Albertson’s Stadium in sunny Boise, Idaho. Sifting through the bowl games on the horizon, Drew gets us hyped up for the battle between Appalachian St. and Toledo.

    The holiday season is upon us and that can only mean one thing: Drew will be sitting around, doing nothing. As we attempt to get him in to the holiday spirit, we share stories of Christmas past. Past bad beats, that is. Bad beats that would and could bring the Grinch out of any young Who in Whoville and make your heart shrink to two sizes too small. As we all know, Hanukkah means the beginning of bowl season. In true Hanukkah fashion, the gifts of early bowl matchups leave a lot to be desired. Previewing the games, we ponder the what the better venue is...Superdome or a local high school? If you are struggling to remember every bowl’s name, we’ve got you covered with a detailed break down and answer one of life’s great questions...is it a strudel or a juice? Don’t like the hand you were dealt? Drew tells us exactly where you can put it.After weeks of waiting, the NFL comes through with some quality matchups.

Our resident nutritionist, Dr. Greggles, expresses the importance of blueberries...but should you go fresh or frozen? Drew goes deep in to his political wealth of knowledge detailing how the Speaker of the House, Sarah Huckabee, got mixed up in college football news. He also asks one of life’s toughest questions, “Do you root for the spider in the toilet?”Football talk? We’ve got a little of that, too. Tackling the big games through well crafted metaphors, Professor Major teaches us that if Points = Gold, UCF/Memphis decimated the value of the dollar. More of a movie buff? Well, you might say that game was just like a Scorsese film…”great for the average viewer”. With only 1 game on the college football docket this week, we ponder how hungry Navy is for a win over Army. Will they go full Jameis and “Eat a W” this weekend? More coaching movement leads us to wonder which will happen first: Does Jimbo lea
