Jeremiah Johnson. It came out a long time ago. It is an incredible, incredible, incredible movie. Big movie in my family. And you can find it. It's on some of the streaming services, including Tubi, Tubi. I don't know why I promote them because they don't listen to us. They don't put movies on that we want them to put on. But you can watch movies for free on there. So Jeremiah Johnson is... over there. Uh, coming up on this podcast, Red Sox Yankees had to lead with that at the top because the Red Sox won an incredible game, Yankee stadium. So I called my dad. We talked about it as we head into a Tuesday night here, who knows, maybe that will be the only playoff game, the Red Sox win. But we talked about, uh, a crazy game, bizarre season and, uh, what it's like to beat the Yankees in Yankee stadium.
So if you want to skip that, that's about, I don't know, 22, 23 minutes. You can go right to the rest of the podcast, which is Michael Pina talking about five NBA preseason storylines that he's watching over the next three weeks. And then I had Craig Horlbeck on to talk about what it's like to go to an Ireland NFL game. And then we did... Basically assessing fantasy, top five biggest fantasy football storylines after four weeks, including Tyreek Hill, who tragically is out for the year. And then we talked a little Steelers, Ravens, NFL, NFC, AFC North as well. Can't speak. Still speechless from that Red Sox game. Anyway, that is all coming up next. We're going to take a break. We're going to go Pearl Jam.
