 That Time We Forgot Our Own Birthday | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 49:10

Happy Birthday to us, which we totally forgot about! To celebrate one year of POS, we’re giving YOU a jam-packed show with tons of politics and sports. Show Rundown: The Big POS - “It’s closing time…” for both political parties as they make their final case to voters. Trump is spending a lot of time talking about a migrant caravan, and Democrats are spending a lot of time talking about not being Donald Trump. Hot Takes - Did you know Lou Holtz and Mark May have a show on YouTube? Neither did anyone else apparently. We mock it. Senator Cory Booker has a higher ed plan that’s a bad idea for various reasons. We mock it, too. POS Nuggets - The Turkish government has handled the slow drip of information about Jamal Khashoggi’s murder masterfully, keeping it in the news and at the forefront of people's minds. What wasn’t masterful was Ohio State’s drubbing at the hands of Perdue. We look at the implications for the Top 25. True Champions - One from the LA, one from Louisiana.

Show Rundown: The Big POS - What will America’s response to Khashoggi be? There are both charitable and uncharitable explanations for Trump declining to speak for forcefully thus far. And, he’s not helping when he praises the result of a reporter in Montana from a now-Congressman. Hot Takes - People are understandably reticent to testify before the House Oversight Committee behind “closed doors.” An alternative to one-and-done emerges for the NBA. POS Nuggets - We look at the MAGA rally phenomenon. Plus, we agree with Obama on something. Predictions! - In college ball, #6 Michigan -7 at #24 Michigan State, #9 Oklahoma -8 at TCU, and #16 NC State -17.5 at #3 Clemson. In the NFL, Patriots -3 at Bears, Houston +5 at Jacksonville, and Rams -9.5 at San Fran.

 (Insert Clever Native American Pun Here) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 45:16

Elizabeth Warren’s Native American debacle, and more Democratic blundering. Plus, the MLB playoffs and NBA tipoff. Show Rundown: The Big POS - Senator Elizabeth Warren made a boneheaded tactical decision in releasing DNA test results that don’t actually say what she wants them to say. She’s become the center of the conversation that Democrats don’t need three weeks out from the election. Hot Takes - Speaking of bungling...the Buccaneers had an interesting trick play go awry. Plus, kudos to College Gameday for an upcoming trip to Washington State. POS Nuggets - With the ALCS and NLCS underway, we give our picks for the MLB World Series we like to see.
