Sean Barie and Nick Shook recap Week 3 in the NFL, in which Jayden Daniels announced his presence to the football world, Josh Allen's Buffalo Bills steamrolled the Jacksonville Jaguars, and the Minnesota Vikings scored another impressive win.

Katie delivers some fantastic vibes notes, and the trio then shifts to the football side of the show to preview the AFC South.

Katie Caldwell sits the night out while watching her beloved Canucks lose in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Lando Norris finally won an F1 race, which means Sean Barie is out for blood on the latest episode of GRID[IRON]. He's pulling no punches, going after Nick Shook for his lack of confidence in Norris and his own personal obligations, which prevented Sean, Nick and Katie Caldwell from attending the race. Sean and Nick also get into a heated argument regarding the context surrounding Norris' maiden win, including Max Verstappen's possible aerodynamic issues contributing to the result.

Oscar Piastri also made a rookie mistake late, but Yuki Tsunoda scored points in his home race! Hate It or Love It includes Katie's disdain for the Phoenix Coyotes' proposed move to Salt Lake City, while Sean got sunburned, and Nick learned the troublesome walnut tree damaged his house. Sean also forgot Zhou Guanyu existed...and it was a bad week for Katie's F1 fantasy squad, Team All-Hot.
