Don't Fear the Keeper

You asked. Diesel and Commish answered.On this double offseason episode, your hosts look to both the future and the past. Congratulations to the future winners, and shame to the future losers.

Stoat and the Commish celebrate Spring by sticking the pegs in the ground for a two-ball. We run through the Norwich Football League Not-Top-Ten, ranging from wrestling takedowns to drinking debacles to violent encounters with appliances, and much more. Production value is low.

He came, he saw, he pedaled. After a year's battle, new blood was added to the Peach Hog. This week your hosts sit down with the new winner, mock the new loser, and review all the goings on of the past few weeks.

The toilet bowl did anything but stink. Diesel and John O'Neill unite as one body to break down an electric week of winners and losers. The Hog will taste new blood, whose will it be?

It didn't take an oracle to tell us the fantasy gods' thoughts last week, as they backed their favorites and punished those who would cross them. This week, your hosts deal with the fallout, make a few comps, consider hypotheticals, and consider who may be sleeping with the fishes. May Alex's wings be made of wax, and may Zach's shoes be made of concrete. Amen.

Back to normal this week as DFTK returns with 4 balls, 1.5 shafts, and eyes on the prize. We discuss the events that led us here, reminisce on seasons past, and look ahead to who will be covered in glory, and who in shit.

What more could you ask for than a Commish, a former Commish, and a disgraced former Commish all sharing the airwaves together? On this week's episode, your hosts talk upsets, stakes, and get backed into a corner before making predictions for the final week of the regular season.

This week we are ra dogging the podcast in Diesel's absence. "Pain and suffering are always inevitable for a large intelligence and a deep heart. The really great men must, I think, have great sadness on earth." - Brian, I bet

On this week's episode, your hosts recap a shockingly competitive week of games, get a little upset, and even look to cure the divisions of this world. I can't believe I'm saying this, but we still can't sleep on the (former) Commish.

The pod enters a new regime as Diesel and the Stoat both drop critical games in a fairly pathetic week 10. We languish in failure, talk movers and shakers, and fill up the cupboard. Come join our bureaucratic nightmare.

The polls are closing, but the pod is just getting started. On this weeks highly political episode, your hosts will discuss recent developments, call some races and proclaim a few losers. #Goldwater2028

The boy is back in town. The Stoat returned from across the pond just in time to ravage Diesel's chicken coop in rivalry week. On this episode we take some accountability, discuss current events with a special guest, and request that someone put together an oral history of Brian's title.

It's a stoat-free episode, but we make up for it with plenty of 'squatch. Coming in as a spot-starter, Brian helps Diesel recap the week, travel the world, and even debut a new stat. Please enjoy the end of the episode where I discover live that Mike Evans pulled his hamstring.

Trades are the name of the game this week, which is a true shame given what's happened in the 16ish hours since we've finished recording. Breaking news aside, your hosts will discuss some of the trades, take a look into what's a good value, and look into the future. Mike I'll trade you Kyren and a first for James Conner.

We ride with 6 in what I personally think is an absolute banger. There is a guest segment. There is Chuck content. McAdoo About Nothing. Yeehaw.

Back and more committed than ever, Diesel returns to the show just in time for byes to start. Your hosts talk through recent weeks, stare into the heart of the machine, and even run a few mental laps. How many more episodes before we're officially cyber-bullying Joe?

Back from the Barley, the leagues first two married men gather to discuss the wedding of the third. We talk Brown shit, urinal placement, and tips for the future in this nuptial edition of DFTK

Diesel is trying on the shackles so this one was solo. I have no idea if it is literal garbage but it probably is. Joe I promise it is a bit.

Just playing the hits. Chuck on the intro. Interview with Joe mama. Transitions, segments, predictions, BANG. Enjoy(n) or Die.

New year, new commish, same old pod. On this week's episode, your hosts recap a shockingly successful draft, look back at the worst decisions in league history, and turn their attention fully to the start of the season. Who's ready to see Zach lose to a robot?

And...we...are...LIVE. I know the audio is kinda weird on this one. We are shaking off some cobwebs. But strap in for another year of content in what is fixing up to be a rambunctious Norwich Football League season.

After a full year of scheming and struggling, the league crowns its new champion in Gibbs Free Energy. Full disclosure: I just googled the name, and only now understand the reference. On this week's season finale, your hosts recap the championship, hear from the winner, give out some awards, and take a look back at this year.

it all comes down to this. anticipation and depression combine in a 1:2 ratio as the stoat, diesel, and the commish combine to recap an electric toilet bowl and look ahead to this years championship. the dogs are barking and the gus is bussin on this one.

As the league's most important game of the year arrives, your hosts take some time to preview awards, look back at two horrible seasons, and pick some games. Just make it Bud Light if I lose, please.

You ever seen a three man weave? Well you're gonna hear one today, as Diesel, Stoat, and the Commish go toe to toe to tongue in an electric opener to our playoff coverage. We reflect on past judgment, contemplate the little things, and stack up losers.

With John out have a holly fucking jolly time with his coworkers and not his friends, the Stoat and Commish step up to deliver an eclectic episode on the eve of the regular season's final week. We talk seeds, breeds, and how teams succeed in the most canine time of the year.

I won't lie to you all, this is a bad Nugget episode. We discussed editing out all of the barking, but jointly decided to leave it instead. This is unfortunately becoming our newest recurring segment. Oh, and also your hosts do recaps, form a committee, break out the dictionary, yadda yadda yadda.

The Commish and Stoat gather to rage against the machine, sip beverages with electric people, and otherwise shit on Brian's team. We also introduce a new piece of interactive league media. It takes time to get the velocity back folks

In a shockingly non-aggressive episode, your hosts try to process the events of the past 2 days. They bring back a little R&B, pass judgement, and then predict a whole mess of chalk for next week. And, would you look at that, they do it in under 2 hours!

Back-to-back weeks of the Commish? Did Christmas come early? This week, your hosts put teams in some buckets, explore life at the bottom of the barrel, and imagine what could've been. Oh, and Diesel continues to make his dramatic comeback in the predictions.

This weeks episode features several very special appearances from Nugget Messina! Oh, and also the Commish is back and Paul joins us. Your hosts talk about both NFLs, revisit the last month for the Commish, and finally make some predictions. I meant to edit out the barking at the beginning, but then I didn't. So, now it's a cold open.

You know what gets the people going? Scandals. And that's all your hosts are going to cover in this week's episode of controversy. Then they close things out by revisiting a very recent fan favorite segment. I stand by my pick of the George Harrison movie.

Despite a troubled production we got this out. They should make a movie about it

Diesel and the Stoat return for the second of our trilogy of Chuck-free pods. This time we get an assist from the League's most venereal official, make a few comps, and get just a little bit equestrian. I feel like this one kinda rocked.

With four teams still failing to straddle the results columns, tensions are rising at both the top and the bottom. A commishless crew takes on the week's events, makes fun of the Giants, and check in on the reliability of our Fearless Leader. Have a blast.

Are fortunes flipping in the league? Perennial underdogs Gary and Mike surge as 3x champ Alex continues a winless streak. Your hosts discuss this change, get some vitals, and interview a hype beast. You just can't beat it.

What's better than an Alocke interview? How about TWO Alocke interviews? We only interviewed him once, but man, that would be special. On this week's episode, your hosts review some somber action from last week, try to give things a positive spin, and explore this week's matchups.

Seasons and hosts come and go, but the pod remains. It took us a few segments to figure out who was hosting the show in this pairing of unconventionally durable wrists, but once we hit our stride we were off to the races. We talk through a Browns win, jump to conclusions, and interview a featured owner certain to make this pod sound like Pepsi Cola.

You ever notice how there are a million songs about love, but only one song about the pod being back in town? In the first episode of the new league year, your hosts review the draft, initiate the newbies, and look ahead to the rest of the season. Bobby FF All the Way to the Sweet Sixteen

In another hosting shuffle, Chuck and Colin join forces to dive into the mind of Alex Avila... and take our word for it, it's a terrifying place. We mount some moments, ask the tough questions, and overall bring the horsepower in this final installment of Hog Knocks 2023.

Your hosts are back to analyze... another host. The performance standard really needs to be raised on this show. They spend their time acquiring some new hobbies, talking brown, and looking ahead to next year. This is officially a Zencastr hate account.

Your hosts are back to analyze ... one of your hosts. In another episode revolving around a repeat offended, they try to keep things fresh with a history lesson, a battle of brothers, and a movie score to make the Commish proud. I hope Chuck listens to this as he applies his salves and tonics.

As a wise man once said: BRRRRRRRN. Your hosts kick off the second run of Hog Knocks with a repeat offender, but he's a really nice guy. Seriously, salt of the earth this guy. The ending might be my favorite edit ever.

All it takes is one groupchat message. On this special offseason episode, Diesel is joined by two guests to recap some league events, make an announcement, and talk television. The king is dead, long live the king

On this week's super-sized episode, your hosts return to full strength for a recap of the playoff's events. They also take some time for not one interview, not two, not ... okay it's two interviews. But that's still a lot by our standards. Stick around through both for a very special announcement. Ask not for whom the hog knocks; it knocks for thee.

Ok, it's more short than special, but it is here. On this week's nontraditional episode, Diesel takes the reins for a quarter hour of glory. The pod intends to return next week for a postseason mega-episode, so stay tuned and stop bothering me.

Look, I edited it this time. On this week's very festive installment, your hosts welcome an honored guest to own up to some mistakes of the past, critique some presents, and look ahead to the playoff future. Please, God, don't let this be an episode that we think is fine but is actually significantly too mean.

Diesel and the Stoat are reunited and it feels so ... late. The hosts look at the spicy playoff race and recap the key matchups that set the stage for the Moving Week. Later, they Swim on over to Mt Rushmore for a sleigh ride through the sounds of the Yuletide. Enjoy this return to normalcy during your Christmas travels. In not too long, John's parents will be dropping in on our recording sessions like Sam Casa.

This really is a DFTK episode of all time

Diesel and... the Stoat? The Owl? Thee Stallion? Whatever, your hosts briefly discuss the events of the past week and look ahead to a huge week of matchups as the playoffs fast approach. They even take like 3 minutes to award the Wheelbarrow, so never say we do nothing for you. Since the Macy's Parade is over, this episode counts as a Christmas present for all of you.

Owl and Diesel are back and (mostly) on time with an episode that recaps a relatively pedestrian week of action, the Stoat's surge up the picks standings, and the enigma of a man who is above all things himself. We are joined by a mystery guest to talk life, love, and losing the league. I think I finally have the audacity to say this is editing business is pretty easy... Fuck I forgot the wheelbarrow audio
