The Feeding the Book Podcast, Megapod for week four in the National Football League.

It's Gil Alexander, as I mentioned.

Thank you for joining. As always, the Staples of the show are with us today from Circus Sports, the Vice President of Operations, and also Derek Stevens conciliary, if you want to know by that title. It's Mike Palm. Thank you, Mike. How you doing, man? Well, we're finally getting over this cold. It's breaking up now, so that's good. And I'm very, very, very honored to be on

the panel with today's esteemed rotating guests. Esteemed rotating guests. We'll get to him,

but of course on my left, it's Todd Wischnev, everybody from Showtime's docuseries action.

And of course, a numbers game, weekly appearances on VISA. Todd, what are you in

Circa right now? Ten and 5? I am 10 and 5

in circa, so the end is near. What is that mean that you're about to suck royally? Yes,

probably. Excellent. You've also been very good on this megapod. The both of you have been very good.

I have sucked. I've been one in two every week and have lost the teaser. So something's

wrong with me. I got to get off the Schneide. The rotating guest that Mike Palm is referring to,

the esteemed rotating guest, first time on the podcast. He's obviously been on the show on Visan

on the numbers game for years now. We can actually say years plural. He hosts the Lombardi line on

Veson, the Vegas Stats and Information Network, Sirius XM Channel 204, Saturday and Sunday mornings leading into football. He writes for the athletic. He, of course, has his own podcast, which ranks way higher than this one, I might add, in the iTunes rankings. It's called the GM Shuffle. He does it with Adnan and Verk. And he's got a book. It's called Gridiron Genius. Ladies and gentlemen, he's worked with Bill Walsh, Bill Parcells, Bill Belichick, Al Davis, you name it. It's Michael Lombardi. What's happening, Michael? Not much, Gil. It's great to be here. Week 4, this is always a good time of the year. I appreciate you having me on. It's good. I'm starting to actually, I think you gave me the ultimate compliment when I said something about Pinnacle the other day. You actually, I impressed you with my betting esteem there, huh? Yes. That was my big takeaway from that whole interview. I was like, wow, he does. Pinnacle. Actually, you know what? There were two points. Todd actually said this, because Todd came on the next day after you were on.

And Todd, if I might talk about our conversation about Michael, there were two points that we had in our conversation that I think stood above the rest.

One, if you're playing the Kansas City Chiefs, like run the clock down, shorten the game, right?
