NFL 2025 – WEEK 16: Rudolph the REDZONE Reindeer

The MADcast Podcast brings you a special Christmas episode packed with laughs, music, memories, and meaningful conversation. In this nearly two-and-a-half-hour holiday hang, Producer Russ and Big Dave do what they do best—go absolutely all over the place.We kick things off by diving into our favorite Christmas movies, breaking down the classics, the must-watches, and the ones that always spark debate. From there, we get into the soundtrack of the season, talking Christmastime music—favorite albums, iconic songs, and the artists who seem to sing everything during the holidays. And of course, it wouldn't be MADcast without a little rock and roll sprinkled in.Things turn up a notch as we talk professional wrestling. Producer Russ's alter ego, Romeo Falcon, stepped into the ring for two matches, and in one of them walked out as the DWW North American Heavyweight Champion. You'll hear Big Dave's live, on-air reaction as Romeo presents him with the championship belt—an unforgettable moment.The episode also takes a heartfelt and serious turn as we talk about the importance of men reaching out to their brothers and friends. Russ opens up about suffering a loss in the wrestling community with the passing of his friend Ray Basura, who died by suicide. We discuss mental health, suicide prevention, and the importance of getting help and checking in on one another—especially during the holidays.We wrap things up by talking about what's coming in the new year, what we've accomplished with SuperStrong, and reflecting on how far we've come. Like any true MADcast episode, the conversation is raw, real, funny, emotional, and unapologetically us.

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Derrick Hayes, the founder and CEO of Big Dave's Cheesesteaks, a nine-unit franchise that has plans to become the next big thing in cheesesteaks. A native of West Philadelphia, Derrick opened the first location 11 years ago inside a Dunwoody, Georgia, gas station, turning it into a cult favorite with hours-long lines. His big break came when rapper and actress Eve visited Big Dave's and shared about it on her social channels, catapulting the brand to national renown and the opportunity to franchise. He joined the podcast to talk about the determination and patience that were key to setting Big Dave's up for success, and about how his marriage to fellow restaurateur Pinky Cole has given him a fresh perspective in scaling a restaurant business.In this conversation, you'll find out why:Your best chance at success is when you have an underlying purpose Humble beginnings create strong foundations upon which you can build your businessYour big break could come at any moment — and you have to be ready for itPatience is paramount to growing your business the way it deserves Have feedback or ideas for Take-Away?
