John Davis and Aniello Piro kick off the third hour chopping it up about streetwear, Christmas shopping, and the best presents they’ve ever gotten. John explains why the 2025 season will be an abject failure if the Broncos don’t make it to the Super Bowl, contrary to what The Drive believes. They revel in the current golden age of Denver sports as they discuss the Avs’ chances to win the Stanley Cup. Are the Broncos better off losing now? Will the loss to the Jags help the team lock in for the home stretch? The guys discuss the nuances of a loss to close out the third hour.
John Davis and Aniello Piro open the fourth hour wondering if the Broncos are capable of winning in a shootout. Do you believe that Sean Payton can dial up the offense and outcoach his competition down the stretch? The guys predict which of the current Nuggets will have their numbers hanging in the rafters when it’s all said and done as they discuss the renewed focus that the team seems to have. The Broncos are good again and the Pro Bowl rosters reflect that, how many Broncos got the nod? John and Aniello take a lap around the Denver sports scene as they cover a dominant Avs team, a lazy take about the MPJ trade, and the Broncos’ Pro Bowl resurgence ahead of the playoffs.

Peachtree Corners is changing fast—and a lot of the biggest conversations residents are having right now come down to the basics: traffic, infrastructure, and safety. In this episode of Peachtree Corners Life, host Rico Figliolini sits down with City Councilman Eric Christ—fresh off another term—to break down what's happening, why it's happening, and what it means for day-to-day life in the city.From the new “jug handle” traffic pattern at Holcomb Bridge Road and Spalding Drive to major planning around bridge replacement on East Jones Bridge, Eric pulls back the curtain on how decisions get made across city, county, and state responsibilities. The conversation expands into what's next for Technology Parkway, redevelopment at The Forum, the city's deer population report, and how Peachtree Corners is thinking about practical public safety improvements without turning it into a political shouting match.Resources:City of Peachtree Corners website: https://www.peachtreecornersga.govEric Christ contact page: https://www.peachtreecornersga.gov/directory.aspx?EID=32Eric Christ campaign site: https://www.votechrist.orgKey takeawaysHolcomb Bridge/Spalding changes are GDOT-driven (State Route 140) and designed to improve north-south throughput; left turns from Spalding are rerouted via Weatherburn Way and River Exchange.Expect a learning curve: signage improvements + GPS/map updates should reduce “habit” left turns over time.East Jones Bridge vehicle bridge replacement (early 2026 target): a 9–12 month project with an expected full road closure for ~4 months during the bridge swap, creating major detours.Pedestrian infrastructure gets folded in: the plan includes sidewalks on both sides; a newer pedestrian bridge may be relocated into the trail system; the new bridge is expected to sit higher for flood standards.Technology Parkway AV lanes are likely being rethought for a real-world test environment: AVs are faster now, and companies prefer mixed traffic; plan includes restriping, removing the “armadillos,” and adding shared-lane bike markings + a small trailhead parking area.The Forum redevelopment is a multi-year, phased evolution: Barnes & Noble moving (into the former Old Navy space), a parking deck shifting toward the Peachtree Parkway side, and residential/hotel components discussed as later phases (more like 2027–2028 timing).Deer population is a real scale issue: estimate shared in the conversation is 2,700+ deer (~193 per square mile vs ~25 in a natural setting); next step involves USDA Wildlife Services planning.Public safety discussion is framed as “service levels”: exploring options like a precinct presence, staffing visibility, and contract improvements—while acknowledging the long-term county policing framework.Timestamp:00:00 – Welcome and introduction of Eric Christ02:00 – Holcomb Bridge Road traffic changes explained12:00 – East Jones Bridge replacement plans23:00 – Autonomous vehicle lanes and Curiosity Lab updates34:00 – The Forum redevelopment and future timeline44:00 – Deer population study and wildlife management49:00 – Public safety, policing, and community concerns01:12:00 – Final thoughts and how to contact Eric Christ

In the 2nd hour, Dover and Cecil broke down who the Jaguars defense is. Cecil says that if the Jaguars dare the Broncos to run the ball, Denver needs to make them pay for it. The guys recapped last night's Avs win over Seattle. The fellas then discussed how Bo Nix and Trevor Lawrence have made huge jumps over the last four games.
0:00 - Yesterday's Avs win in Seattle was uncommon for a couple different reasons. First of all, they had to battle back from a deficit (which usually doesn't happen to this squad). Second of all, they scored a power play goal! It happened! What did Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar think of his squad's thrilling win over the Kraken?17:51 - Have you ever laughed yourself to tears at a joke YOU made? Ryker certainly did on the Avalanche broadcast last night.Next, we have so many good soundbites to get through! Let's CHOP IT UP!33:49 - Tua Turndaballova has officially been benched by the Miami Dolphins. Quinn Ewers will be the starter for the remained of the season. Man...what do the Dolphins do with that contract?After that, Kenny Dillingham claims he's staying at ASU. But now that the Michigan job is wide open...will he have a change of heart?
0:00 - The Avs actually trailed the Kraken at one point last night. It actually happened! A team had a lead over the Avs! But Colorado battled back with 3 goals in the 3rd period to drown the Kraken. And on top of it all...they actually scored a Power Play goal! 17:45 - We're a few days removed from the Broncos beating the Packers. Before we turn the page to the Jaguars game, what are some final takeaways we have from the clash with the Cheeseheads?36:37 - Broncos vs Packers drew record viewership numbers on CBS. Also, turns out Rockets head coach Ime Udoka might be onto something. According to the NBA's 2 minute report, the officially made 3 incorrect calls during OT that all benefitted the Nuggets. But guess what? We've all been there. Happens to the best of us.Lastly, the New York Knickerbockers won the Emirates NBA Cup™ last night. Do we care about this thing yet? Do the players care? Should we care?

In the final hour, Dover and Cecil broke down how Vance Joseph changed up his defense to slow down Jordan Love. The fellas talked about the latest injuries with the Nuggets. Who has been better over the past month, Bo Nix or Sean Payton? Cloising out the show, the fellas previewed tonight's Avs game against the Kraken.
Tariffs dominated headlines. AI moved from pilot to production. Automation got real. But what did 2025 actually look like for operators on the ground?

No episódio 191, falamos das goleadas de Benfica e Sporting a Moreirense e AVS. O Benfica apresenta claras melhorias e o Sporting até dá gosto ver jogar... O Porto ri-se do que acabamos de dizer e segue no 1º lugar, com uma vitória por 3-1 sobre o Estrela, a 6ª seguida para o campeonato! Falamos também da luta Minhota pelo 4º posto, com o Braga finalmente a apanhar o Gil Vicente em pontos no 4º lugar.

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth kick off today’s show talking about how teams approach interconference matchups. They recap a couple of big blowout wins the Avs and Nuggets got last night. They get Stink from Houston, who doubles down on his love for the Texans and tells Stoke the late-night dinner roll story. There has been a key name on the Packers injury report that may decide the outcome of Sunday’s game, the guys discuss the implications of that and they debate where Jordan Love ranks among his peers. The Morning Crew wrap up the first hour with some Is It Just Me’s on an “Is It Just Me Friday”.
0:00 - How's THAT for a DOUBLE WINAROO? Both the Nuggets and the Avs blew out their respective opponents last night. We're getting used to winning in the Mile High City.15:18 - It's a bit early, but are there some potential trade moves the Nuggets and Avalanche should make? Do they have some capital to use? Or should they keep their young players and continue developing them?After that, The Tampa Bay Buccaneers collapsed on Thursday Night Football and lost to the Falcons at the buzzer. Bucs' coach Todd Bowles was disgusted with his team's performance and dropped about 10 no-no words in the span of 25 seconds after the game.34:57 - Coach O joined Bussin' With the Boys recently and told a crazy story about recruiting Joe Burrow to play at LSU. Recruiting used to be wild back in the day, and somehow the NIL/Portal era has made it even wilder.
The Avs had royalty in the house at Ball Arena as they honored the 1995-96 Stanley Cup champs. And this current Colorado team put on a show in a 6-2 win. How did they stay hot at home? And are games in Denver even competitive right now? Join Will and Drew!
Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth kick off the third hour giving Stoke a makeover. Stink and Stoke share their memories of cold weather games. Mike wants the Broncos to lose... to get it out of the way before the playoffs. Mike tries (emphasis on tries) to defend his take before Sexy Stokley gets the greenlight from The Anchor. They bag on the NBA Cup ahead of the Nuggets’ return to action and they get a potential Stanley Cup preview between the Avs and Panthers.
In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil dive into the special announcement of Phil being honored at this upcoming Broncos game as the Broncos Legend of the Game. Phil details his history of joining the Broncos as an undrafted free agent, the bittersweet ending to his career in Denver, and now moving on and finding a second career in hosting sports talk radio. Phil explains why this Sunday will serve as closure for his time with the Broncos. Today's "Three Count" includes an update in the Phillip Rivers situation with the Colts reaching out to Sam Ehlinger but Ehlinger declining to stay on the Broncos practice squad and the twists and turns of the Sherrone Moore cheating situation at the University of Michigan. We preview the Avalanche and Panthers game tonight as the Avs take on the defending Stanley Cup champions. Will this be a game we see the best version of the Avs? How will the power play look tonight?
In the final hour, Dover and Cecil explained that the Broncos shouldn't blitz Jordan Love as much as they would want to because he is great against the blitz. The fellas heard from Josh Jacobs as he gave an update on his injury. Are there any great teams in the NFL this season? The guys closed out the show previewing tonight's Nuggets and Avs games.
00:00 Cross talk.21:00 Sherrone Moore fired by Michigan.24:20 Philip Rivers speaks.31:15 Avs lose in Nashville.36:55 Payton comments on Parsons.

Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley kick off today’s show talking about the impending holiday season before they preview the Broncos’ big game with the Packers and recap the Avs’ odd shootout loss to Nashville. Has the offense found its groove at the right time? Is history repeating from a decade ago? The guys get the rare opportunity to hear from Mile High Marv. Has the whole team turned a corner? The 6am Duo answer the listeners’ questions about the lack of deep shots from the Broncos’ offense, the Packers’ inconsistency, and the NHL’s terrible playoff format.
Mike Evans and Brandon Stokley with Mark Schlereth open the fourth hour planning a group pedicure before they continue to marvel at the absurd money going around college athletics nowadays. Mike stresses the importance of outright wins for the Avs from now on with the Stars breathing down their necks. The Morning Crew are joined by our ESPN NFL Analyst, Dan Orlovsky, to get his analysis of Bo’s improved footwork, RJ’s improved vision, and he settles a debate on the morning show. They wonder why the Broncos are a home underdog to the Packers when both teams are very similar when you put them under a microscope. They reflect on the journey that Garrett Bolles has gone through in his time in Denver before they take on last look at the AFC to cap off today’s show.
In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil look at the history of 11-2 NFL teams and why the Broncos are on a short list when it comes to a point differential. What does this Broncos team have in common with the other 11-2 teams with similar point differentials? We hear from Sean Payton and his thoughts on ____, being an underdog vs the Packers at home, and how important the home crowd will be for the Broncos. How is this year's matchup different than when the two teams faced off in 2023? Today's "Three Count" features if the Chiefs could bench their stars in their meeting with the Broncos on Christmas Day if the Chiefs are eliminated from the playoffs, teams around the MLB showing interest in the Rockies' Brenton Doyle, and the NFL shortening first round draft picks from 10 minutes to 8 minutes. We react to the Avalanche losing another shootout to move to 0-4 in shootouts this season. Why do the uber-talented Avs struggle in overtime and shootouts?
In the 2nd hour, Dover and Cecil heard from Sean Payton talking about winning close games and how it could be a benefit for them down the stretch. Is Payton hiding certain plays from Marvin Mims? The fellas reacted to the strange sequence in the shootout last night for the Avs and a certain goalie. Is there something CU needs to copy from Utah?
0:00 - Yesterday was a weird game for the Avalanche. Scott Wedgewood got pulled from the shootout due to concussion protocol, and the Avs fell to the Predators 4-3 in Nashville. Still got the point though! That's all that counts.But more importantly...The Altitude TV crew debuted a brand new country single last night! "Colorado Wagon." Shame it came after a loss, though. 20:48 - This upcoming Broncos vs Packers clash will be a real measuring stick game, as the cliche goes. We're about to find out who the Broncos really are when they square up against a legit NFC playoff contender.35:09 - Tim Tebow was asked about Shedeur Sanders and if he can understand what Shedeur is going through. How similar are their situations? Is Mr. Perfect Timing himself akin to Tebow Time?
In hour 3 of The Drive, Zach and Phil are joined by veteran NFL reporter James Palmer to discuss his biggest takeaway from the Broncos win over the Raiders, RJ Harvey's growth in confidence with running between the tackles, and if there is a bigger role for Marvin Mims on offense. How will the AFC playoff picture shake out with the Chiefs not winning the division for the first time in nearly a decade? Zach and Phil question how Sean Payton can use Marvin Mims more after Mims showed off his explosiveness with a punt return touchdown. Are the Avalanche on a collision course to face off with the Stars in the second round of the playoffs? We preview the Avs and Predators game tonight. Could the hire of Jim Mora shift the balance of relevance in college football in Colorado? How will Deion Sanders respond with his "back against the wall" with how poorly CU performed this season?
Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross talking with Dover and Cecil. The guys discuss the Avalanche championship aspirations. If the Avs fall short from a Stanley Cup again, will it be time to move on from coach Jared Bednar? The guys rank the Denver sports teams from most likely to win a championship to least. Zach and Phil question how Sean Payton can use Marvin Mims more after Mims showed off his explosiveness with a punt return touchdown. Can the hire of Jim Mora shift the balance of relevance in college football in Colorado? How will Deion Sanders respond with his "back against the wall" with how poorly CU performed this season? How will Mora's plan and Sanders' plan differ from a program and roster building standpoint?
In the 3rd hour, Dover and Cecil discussed if RJ Harvey can win Offensive Rookie of the Year. Does Harvey deserve more touches on offense or is at where he should be? The guys discussed which local team has the best chance to have a parade in 2026 between the Broncos, Nuggets, or Avs. Is it important for Bo Nix to throw for 4,000 yards.
0:00 - The Avalanche are wrapping up a lost (mostly) East Coast road trip tonight in Nashville. What are they keys to an Avs victory tonight?15:43 - College Football and NIL as a whole have rapidly spun out of control. The entire CFB world needs a massive overhaul, and we're not the only ones who feel that way.34:32 - The 2026 Winter Olympics are around the corner, and evidently the Italians are having trouble constructing a proper ice hockey rink. Can they figure it out in time?
How you bounce back is what matters, and the Avs responded to a rare regulation loss with two straight hard fought wins on the road over the New York Rangers and Philadelphia Flyers, overcoming controversial officiating and a back to back for four road points. Can they finish off the road trip with a win in Nashville?

It's December, and the Avalanche are still destroying everyone. We spent the first half discussing the Avs in relation to the modern "greats" and moved on to hypothetical Russian basement dwellers. Later we chatted about hockey rink dimensions and "circle math".
In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil react to the Broncos win over the Raiders and retaking the driver's seat for the number one seed in the AFC. What was the guy's biggest takeaways from the game? How confident are the guys in the Broncos run game after RJ Harvey had his best day on the ground this season? Will the Harvey and the run game be able to repeat this type of performance vs a quality team in Green Bay? What did the guys make of the Broncos defense bottling up Jeanty and getting consistent pressure on the quarterback? How important was Marvin Mims' punt return TD and how can Sean Payton get him more involved on offense? Today's "Three Count" features the controversial ending to the Broncos game with the Raiders covering a gambling spread on the final play of the game, the Nuggets winning their 10th straight road game, and the Avs going 2-0 over the weekend. We react to the college football playoff bracket being official and Notre Dame opting out of a bowl game after getting "snubbed".

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1213: Today we're talking Scout's aggressive service-first launch strategy, Carvana's stunning rise past Detroit's giants as it joins the S&P 500, and Waymo's shift from polite AV to confidently assertive city driver.Show Notes with links:Scout Motors is doubling down on a factory-run service network as it preps for a 2027 U.S. launch, betting that premium, reliable service will become a differentiator in the direct-to-consumer EV space.Scout will open 25 brand-owned rooftops at launch, both “Studios,” where customers shop and interact with a sales adviser, and “Workshops,” where service is performed. 57 rooftops are planned in Year 2.The brand plans 15% more annual service labor capacity than projected need to stay ahead of demand and reduce wait times.Scout aims to staff 1,400 service bays with roughly 900 technicians within five years, backed by VW Group resources but operating independently.“The way we describe our retail operations is a digital-first experience built on a service-first infrastructure.” — Cody Thacker, VP Commercial Operations, ScoutCarvana's comeback is officially Wall Street-certified as the online used-car disruptor joins the S&P 500, marking a stunning rebound from near-bankruptcy to an $87B valuation that now eclipses Ford and GM.Shares have surged more than 8,000% since 2022 and nearly doubled in 2025 as demand rebounded and cost discipline kicked in.Carvana now trades at 57× forward earnings, massively outpacing Detroit's single-digit multiples.The company sold a record 155,941 units in Q3, driving 55% revenue growth and fueling analyst confidence in potential volume leadership over CarMax by 2026.Index inclusion on Dec. 22 is expected to trigger significant buying from funds tracking the S&P.Waymo's once overly-courteous robotaxis are getting a software personality shift in San Francisco—assertive, human-like driving that's raising eyebrows, improving flow, and occasionally bending rules.Riders report more aggressive lane changes, quicker merges, and tighter gaps—closer to how real-world urban drivers operate.The shift follows complaints that overly passive AVs caused congestion, got stuck behind obstacles, and struggled downtown.Recent incidents include an illegal U-turn, a lane-change with no signal, and even a tragic neighborhood cat strike—fueling debate over “too human” behavior.Waymo says more assertiveness is required to scale in busy cities, with updates teaching AVs to make “common-sense decisions” when laws conflict.Thank you to today's sponsor, Mia.

B0:00 - 10 straight wins! 11-2 record. How does THAT sound for your Denver Broncos! They beat the Raiders in Vegas last night and, once again, stand alone atop the NFL standings.16:46 - What did Sean Payton and Bo Nix have to say yesterday after their win in Vegas?34:18 - The Broncos weren't the only Denver teams winning this weekend! Both the Avs and Nuggets had a stellar weekend as well. In fact, yesterday was the 11th time the Avalanche, Nuggets, and Broncos all won on the same day.
The Avalanche beat the Flyers 3-2 in Philly on Sunday afternoon. Up next the Avs head to Nashville to take on the Predators.
Mike Evans and Will Petersen kick off today’s show with Mark Schlereth bouncing around the Denver sports scene debating whether Sunday’s game against the Raiders is a trap game, reacting to a rare Avs loss, and breaking down CU’s new offensive coordinator. There have been a ton of people making parallels between the Super Bowl 50 team and this year’s Broncos, Will and Stink point out a few key differences that could be the difference between success and failure. Should Broncos fans feel worried about winning so many close games? They give Stoke some grief for taking a long weekend before they stress how important it is to have home field advantage of the the Patriots.
In the 2nd hour, Dover gave Cecil his keys to the game for the Broncos-Raiders game. The fellas previewed the upcoming weekend for the Avs and Nuggets. Did the Avalanche peak too early? JT The Brick joined the show to preview the Broncos-Raiders game. Why is the Raiders offensive line so bad and why does JT think the Raiders can upset the Broncos?
0:00 - Vic, Mose, and Mat Smith discuss the wiiiiiiide gap between the Broncos and the Raiders and whether or not the final score should reflect that reality. Plus, the gang ponders some words from PHD's Tyler Polumbus about the 2015 Broncos and some differences between that squad and this year's squad...besides the obvious.16:28 - The gang decides that they have no idea what goalie interference is after last night's Avs game, where they lost to the Islanders on Long Island.36:41 - If the gang was perplexed by the Nuggets dropping four straight at home while winning eight straight on the road, so is Nuggets head coach David Adelman. Plus, keys to the game for the Nugs as they take on the Hawks tonight.
It had to happen at some point. The Avalanche's 17 game point streak comes to an end on the road with a 6-3 loss to the New York Islanders, the first time all season the Avs have lost a game by more than one goal. In 27 games. Can this just be a one off performance while the team deals with some sickness, or has the seal been broken on this historic run? Will the powerplay ever be better?
