It's the beating the book podcast, Megapod, week 17 in the National Football League.

Week 17 of 18, the penultimate. There it is. Use the word pen Football League. Week 17 of 18.

The penultimate.

There it is. Use the word penultimate. Week of the NFL season. Skill Alexander live from the South Point. Of course, the staples of the show with me. First of all, Jeff Parles in studio, always with me in studio. Jeff Parley. Vicent host, are you good, man? It took me a minute to get my usual chair because of what you're about to bring up in a second.

Well, Todd Wishnev, not in his mom's cork attic in Pittsburgh, PA. He has driven to Las Vegas in a motor vehicle and is here in studio. And as always, he's not dressed up for the show. But how you doing, man? You're good? I'm playing tennis after the show.

So am I. I'm wearing a button down. We've been through this.

You couldn't have had a change of clothing?

I'm in a mindset, baby. I'm in a mindset. Okay. Todd Wishnav, everybody here as well. and we'll update the records because I believe I have an insurmountable one-game lead that we're about to talk about. And our rotating guests for the week is a Megapod veteran.

And I think if I were to go back into the annals, the anals, Todd, of Megapod history.

And if I were to count up the number of appearances on the Megapod, I'm going to say that I think this guy is the

leader. Joe Fortinball from Daily Wager, everybody. How you doing, Joseph? Gil, gentlemen, it is a pleasure

to be with you. I used to hold that distinction, I know, but I haven't been able to appear on the show

for like two years because my schedule got turned upside down, then you guys had like literally, Gil, you have zero flexibility with whether or not you'll move that's like four minutes. No, no, can't be done at the same time every day, week, which I respect. I admire that, but it's great to be back. I'm glad we were able to figure out a way to make this work. Thank you so much for having me. You're the best. Still kind enough to slum down here with us, and I appreciate that. So now you do daily wager. What other things? Because I actually want to know the answer to this. It says here, host of Joe and Amber on ESPN Radio, what is that and what else? Because I saw you like, Wasn't Molly Karim hugging you the other day? You're all over the place. What are you doing? Yeah, so I'm getting back in the radio, which is awesome, because I was doing it for six years in the Bay Area while doing daily wager in ESPN part-time. And then two and a half years ago, moved down here, joined ESPN full time.

Now we're launching a new radio show. It's the 7 to 9 p.m. Eastern Spot Monday through Friday.

It's myself and Amber Wilson. We're very excited about it. We kick off January 3rd. So back in a regular

radio spot, first national gig. So very excited about that. And then,

you know, there's rotating stuff. I was in Bristol and New York last week for a lot of the photos and getting the radio stuff ready. So I was lucky enough to be asked to come on first take. And some of the other shows, get up, this just in. So you kind of go to New York and you do the whole run through and you talk gambling with everyone. And, uh, you know, it was a lot of fun.
