It's the bye week so we don't have an opponent to talk to so instead Charles invited some friends to meet Ron and have him live through an episode of Soundtracker, with Soundtracker host (and victory-curious Browns fan) Eric Peacock and Charles' frequent podcast pal (and resigned Giants fan) David Roth. After Remembering Some Cleveland Guys, there's some good talk about the mediocre comedian-to-reactionary grifter pipeline and even some discussion of football.

Thanks again to LunarSnow for cleaning up the sound, especially Charles since his good mic broke and he sounds like he's hiding in a bathroom from Oscar Pistorius.

The Shutdown Fullcast's Jason Kirk joins Charles and L. Ron to bask in the Falcons' win over the Saints and he gets our ass (especially sartorially). We also talk about his soon-to-be-released novel Hell is a World Without You and growing up evangelical and growing out of it before getting down to football.

More sad horns after the Saints fall to the Lions. Charles and L. Ron are joined by Defector's Blog Girl Lauren Theisen who is kinder than she needed to be about Getting Our Ass. Plus memories of Michigan. Plus, Skooks is back as the Man in the Dome.

Happy horns ring out as the Saints break their losing streak and move back into (lol) first place in the abysmal NFC South. Joining Ron and Charles to lament how far his tepid support for the Panthers has fallen is Canadian transplant / Duke walk-on, George Pearkes. We Get His Ass, plus Skooks is back as the Man in the Dome.

The Saints roll on at home, this time through the Giants. L. Ron had a work emergency so Charles had to get What a Time to Be Alive's Patrick Monahan ass alone. L. Ron returned for Man in the Dome with Skooks. Happy horns for all (except Pat.)

Destiny is a fickle beast and if we ever controlled our own, we no longer do. L. Ron and Charles are joined by Plexico Gingrich, formerly of Ruthless Reviews, to talk about the Saints' dispiriting loss to the Rams in a season of dispiriting losses. Plus, a lot of talk about gambling, the DFS industry and the monsters and idiots that comprise the world.

What a satisfying win over the Buccaneers to make the final game of the season meaningful. Charles and L. Ron enjoyed it immensely. Tampa native and Bucs fan Andrew Lawrence of MMFA, not so much.

Charles and L. Ron go to game 18 together to watch the Saints blow out the Falcons, then to a New Orleans bar to hope for help making the wild card. Guest cameos from some of our Men in the Dome and some fans in the Dome.
