This week's Mets highlights include Gio declaring that it's time to move on from Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil, while BT and Sal scoff at Alonso's reported wish to sign a seven-year deal. Plus, BT wonders if the team's recent coaching hires suggest that Carlos Mendoza is on the hot seat, and the Evan and Tiki crew revisit their preseason takes that went horribly wrong.

BT & Sal's segment kicks off with a light-hearted, but fiery, debate about Guardians of the Galaxy and Avatar, before launching into a serious, "fixed NFL" discussion. Sal argues that the Chiefs are consistently given favorable calls, particularly citing an unusual instance where a flag was thrown late at the direction of "New York," suggesting the league may be subtly protecting its investment in the Mahomes/Kelce/Swift narrative. BT acknowledges the inconsistent officiating but stops short of calling it fixed, though he admits the rise of gambling and referee scandals makes the theory harder to dismiss. The segment then shifts gears to previewing the Yankees' year-end press conference with Aaron Boone, where the hosts are ready for a round of "Boone & Cashman Bingo."

BT and Sal tear into Aaron Glenn for his "terrifying" and "ridiculous" comments suggesting he's worried about media reaction if the Jets throw deep and get intercepted. The hosts debate whether the new head coach is "insecure" or just "sensitive" and defensive because he's 0-6 and "getting bludgeoned." They argue that his transparency, a former appealing trait, has become a massive liability, proving he's overwhelmed and learning on the fly how to handle New York's pressure. The core problem: Glenn lacks the winning pedigree to back up his aggressive, Parcells/Belichick-style rhetoric, making his failure to "handle the heat" a serious warning flare for his future with the worst franchise in North American sports.

BT and Sal dive into the Aaron Glenn debate, energized by a caller who suggests the Jets coach isn't "scared to lose, but scared to win." The hosts dissect Glenn's seemingly hesitant decision-making, comparing him to Brian Daboll's fearless, early-career gambles. While acknowledging that Justin Fields' poor play is a factor, they argue Glenn is not absolved from making "horrific decisions." The conversation quickly escalates into a "Harbaugh Watch," with Sal questioning whether the Jets should pull the plug on Glenn after one season if a known commodity like John Harbaugh unexpectedly becomes available. Plus, a quick look at the Jets' possible trade targets (Olave, Waddle) and a preview of the upcoming Yankees press conference with Boone and Cashman.

BT and Sal tear into the Yankees' year-end press conferences, noting Brian Cashman's uncharacteristically "tired" and uncombative demeanor, suggesting he's worn out by the long run of disappointment. The bigger shock is the massive injury toll: Anthony Volpe (shoulder surgery), Carlos Rodón (procedure), and Gerrit Cole (on target, but likely not ready for Opening Day), clouding the offseason plans. The hosts debate Cashman's defense of Volpe's performance and his future, seeing a "first flinch" of self-doubt. They conclude that the Yankees' standard has been utterly decimated because, without any repercussions for years of post-2009 failure, "what is the standard?" Hal Steinbrenner is called out for his silence and for accepting a culture where a 94-win team can get "outclassed and mopped" by the Blue Jays.

BT and Sal fire away at the Mets' confusing decision to appoint a Director of Major League Hitting—a move that strongly suggests an organization with two hitting coaches or two cooks in the kitchen. They unleash a furious take on how this overcomplicates the game, echoes the ill-fated two-hitting-coach experiment that Eric Chavez criticized, and begs the question: who are the players supposed to listen to? The discussion heats up as they imagine a superstar like Juan Soto or Aaron Judge being told what to do by multiple voices, leading them to conclude that the game is becoming too analytical and robotic, sacrificing common sense and player independence for front-office control. They also dive into the Yankees' impending year-end press conference and what transparency (or lack thereof) to expect from Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone.

BT & Sal ignite a fiery debate over Mets President David Stearns' controversial staff choices, calling the hiring of "ultra-analytical" bench coach Kai Correa a clear "backstab" and a "warning shot" that puts manager Carlos Mendoza on "thin ice." They rip the organization's top-down, data-first philosophy, arguing it emasculates the manager and favors "nerds over ninjas." The focus then shifts to the Yankees as they question if Anthony Volpe's surgery is an "escape hatch" to cover up the club's development failures. The hosts also preview a "feisty" Cashman press conference, demand accountability for the position player mess, and weigh in on the Giants' trade rumors. The show wraps with a hilarious recap of BT's anxiety-ridden late-night TV experience and a deep-dive into MVP arguments and MLB stoppage fears.

BT and Sal dive into a fiery debate over the New York Mets' controversial hiring of an analytics-driven bench coach, Kai Correa, viewing it as a clear sign that Mets President David Stearns has placed manager Carlos Mendoza on a perilously short leash. The hosts argue that forcing an "arranged marriage" with an unfamiliar coach emasculates Mendoza and signals a flaw in the team's top-down, analytical philosophy. The discussion also turns to the Yankees, as shortstop Anthony Volpe undergoes shoulder surgery. BT and Sal express skepticism, questioning if the injury is an excuse for his first three years of offensive struggles and criticizing the organization's continued analytical overreach—highlighting a shared, frustrating trend across both New York ballclubs. The segment concludes with Speaker 1 (BT) recounting his hilarious, anxiety-ridden experience of an unexpectedly brutal late-night on a TV set, leaving him operating on minimal sleep.

BT and Sal light up the airwaves with three intense, random questions that range from the bizarre to the life-changing. The burning questions on the table: Have you ever hit a deer or another large animal on the road? Do you believe in ghosts? And, most seriously, following Nick Mangold's appeal, would you consider being a living organ donor? The debate includes scary highway tales, the "haunted" Pfister Hotel, and a deep, fiery discussion about the difficult decisions of donation.

BT and Sal unleash a fiery critique on the latest sports embarrassments to hit New York. The main target: the Rangers' shockingly scoreless start at home, marking a historic and humiliating three-game drought where the goal song hasn't played once. They also dive into the bizarre world of the Gold Glove nominations, with Sal expressing near-obsessive frustration over the perceived snubs, particularly Francisco Lindor and Cody Bellinger, and the baffling inclusion of lesser-known players, sparking a passionate debate about the award's legitimacy.

BT and Sal fire away at the Mets' confusing decision to appoint a Director of Major League Hitting—a move that strongly suggests an organization with two hitting coaches or two cooks in the kitchen. They unleash a furious take on how this overcomplicates the game, echoes the ill-fated two-hitting-coach experiment that Eric Chavez criticized, and begs the question: who are the players supposed to listen to?

They also dive into the Yankees' impending year-end press conference and what transparency (or lack thereof) to expect from Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone.

BT and Sal dive into the radio host's harrowing, sleepless night filming a part for the TV show Gravesend. Sal recounts his anxiety, the ridiculous call time, his wardrobe woes, and the crushing pressure of messing up his three lines at 4:00 AM—all before heading straight back to his day job. He's ready to quit, but the director has other plans.

BT and Sal dive into the fiery debate surrounding Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe's shoulder surgery after a rough season. While the surgery offers a potential explanation for his struggles, the hosts clash over whether the injury is a genuine excuse for three years of inconsistency, with one speaker declaring he won't "hear about the shoulder being the primary reason for his inconsistencies or his failures." The conversation quickly escalates to a searing critique of the Yankees' and Mets' analytical approach to team and staff building, including the Mets' recent coaching changes, which one host labels an "arranged marriage." The discussion centers on the flaws of being too "married to the analytics," questioning if a computer can replace a manager's "gut" feeling and calling for a focus on acquiring "better players" over "analytical guys."

BT and Sal engage in a fiery debate over the New York Mets' recent hiring of a new bench coach, Chi Correa, and what it signals for manager Carlos Mendoza. Sal argues that Correa's hire—a move driven by analytics and the front office—is a direct, ominous message from President of Baseball Operations David Stearns and sets up Correa as a manager-in-waiting if Mendoza stumbles early in the season. BT disagrees with the structure, arguing that forcing a new coach on a manager they've never worked with is setting Mendoza up to fail, but ultimately waves the white flag on the debate over old-school feel versus analytical front-office control in modern baseball. The hosts agree that the move signifies a very short leash for Mendoza following a disappointing prior season and the total overhaul of the rest of the coaching staff.

BT and Sal unleash a blistering critique on the New York Jets, driven by a caller's exasperated claim that the team "never has a plan." The hosts aggressively debate this premise, dissecting the true nature of the Jets' alleged strategy (or lack thereof) from personnel decisions like passing on a potential backup quarterback to the questionable hiring of coach Aaron Glenn. They also fire back at players like Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson for running their mouths while losing, concluding that the team's biggest issue is the self-inflicted chaos and instability that comes from repeated, inexperienced hires. It's a fiery breakdown of a franchise stuck in a cycle of disappointment.

A passionate Giants fan calls in to BT & Sal, demanding the hosts re-create the "lucky charm" from the team's past Super Bowl victories: ordering pizza from a specific local joint, Umberto's/Roberto's. The caller, Dino, believes the Giants need the Super Bowl pizza tradition resurrected immediately to fuel their current run. BT and Sal pump the brakes, arguing the team should probably reach relevance—like getting to .500—before the celebratory pies are ordered, but acknowledge the infectious, fiery passion of a fan looking for any edge to ignite Big Blue's future.

BT and Sal dive into the New York Giants' shifting fortunes, driven by the excitement surrounding rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart. While acknowledging the team has "closed the gap" in the NFC East and has a hopeful future with Dart and Coach Daboll, the duo sharply debate whether the Giants truly have the missing pieces needed to make a "real jump" into contention this season. They dissect the upcoming brutal two-game stretch against a formidable Denver Broncos defense and a re-energized Eagles squad, questioning if the Dart Effect can sustain success against elite competition or if Giant fans need to "pump the brakes" and focus on competitive games rather than a huge win total.

BT and Sal dive into the red-hot possibility of the New York Giants (2-4) making a surprising run for the NFC East crown after a stunning blowout win against the Eagles. Fueled by the "real" talent of new quarterback Jaxson Dart, the hosts argue that the gap between the Giants and the rest of the seemingly vulnerable division (Eagles are "just okay," the Commanders are "vulnerable," and the Cowboys are "not any good") has been definitively closed. While acknowledging the difficult upcoming schedule (Denver, Philly), they lean into the optimistic view, suggesting the team's new energy and the shifting landscape of the NFL mean the Giants are "live" and a legitimate threat this year, and certainly in the near future. They agree that for the first time in a long time, the Giants are must-watch football.

BT and Sal bring the heat with NFL insider Brian Baldinger for an electric breakdown of the Giants and Jets. They dissect the Giants' surge behind rookie Jaxson Dart, questioning if they've truly closed the gap in the NFC East, and if Denver's ferocious defense can contain his unique running ability. On the flip side, the trio unloads on the Jets' offensive struggles, debating whether Justin Fields' late-game hesitancy is fixable and if coach Aaron Glenn's late-game decision-making cost them a win. Baldinger gives a scorching film-based critique on everything from the Giants' Andrew Thomas' impact to the Jets' collapsing offensive line and why a QB switch to Tyrod Taylor was warranted. This is a must-listen reality check for every NY football fan

BT and Sal explode over the New York Giants' stunning reversal of fortune, led by the "Jaxson Dart Effect," declaring the NFC East race is wide open as the Philadelphia Eagles look "fractured" and are trending down. The duo debates a potential aggressive push for a trade to accelerate the Giants' timeline, with names like Judy, Olave, and Waddle floated. Later, they transition to a furious recap of the Jets' continued struggles, with Brian Baldinger (Baldy) breaking down the pathetic offensive performance against Denver and defending Garrett Wilson's on-field 'chirping' at the coaches. Finally, the guys hype up the can't-miss Rangers-Oilers clash featuring stars like Connor McDavid and Igor Shesterkin, which one host is rushing to attend before filming a TV scene!

BT and Sal dive headfirst into the New York Giants' massive Week 7 matchup against the Denver Broncos, declaring Denver's elite defense and Hall of Fame coach as the ultimate benchmark for just how good rookie QB Jaxson Dart and the revamped Giants truly are. The discussion gets fiery as callers celebrate the team's turnaround, debate the development of Dart and the legitimacy of the Cam Scarborough phenomenon, and roast BT for his atrocious Perfect Parlay performance and low standing after Week 6. Plus, they crown the "Call of the Day"—an urgent fan demand to bring back the "lucky charm" pizza for the Giants!

BT and Sal dive into the New York Giants' surprising and rapidly improving trajectory, driven by the emergence of quarterback Jaxson Dart. Following a dominant win against the Eagles, they argue that the NFC East is now "in play", with the other division heavyweights—the Eagles, Commanders, and Cowboys—showing vulnerability and an overall lack of "greatness." While both hosts acknowledge that the Giants winning the division this year is a long shot, the team's ability to beat top contenders and the closing gap in talent and consistency (aided by a strong defense) signals a major shift in the landscape of the division, suggesting next year could be the year the Giants are real contenders. The conversation stresses the critical nature of the upcoming two games: at Denver (a tough matchup) and at Philadelphia. BT and Sal agree that winning even one of these games would be a monumental step, solidifying the idea that the Giants' season is "on for real" and could even prompt a trade for a wide receiver before the deadline. The discussion also touches on the perennial failure of the New York Jets, noting that even ex-coaches like Jeff Ulbrich find success elsewhere, highlighting the contrast between the Giants' renewed hope and the Jets' enduring state of chaos and ineptitude. The consensus is that the long-term outlook for the Giants, anchored by Dart and a strong defense, is incredibly bright.

BT and Sal dive headfirst into the heated discussion surrounding Pete Alonso's rumored demand for a seven-year contract. Sal questions the reality of Alonso getting a deal that long, while BT argues the focus should be on the total money, not the years, as he draws a firm line at $170 million. The hosts fiercely debate the risk, value, and practicality of a massive long-term deal for the slugger, including his place alongside Juan Soto and the broader impact on the team's construction and defensive balance. Is Alonso's demand a pipe dream, and what is the absolute maximum the Mets should offer?

BT and Sal tear into the New York Jets organization following an "all-time low" performance marked by questionable coaching decisions and a palpable sense of organizational dysfunction. The discussion centers on the growing crisis surrounding Head Coach Aaron Glenn, with Sal questioning if Glenn is the right person to lead the team, especially with a potential top draft pick looming. They dissect Glenn's management of the game—particularly the baffling end to the first half and the final down-and-distance decision—and his defensive, overwhelmed interactions with the media. While Sal argues the team looks lost and lacks "a clue" under Glenn, BT counters that a first-time coach needs more than six games, arguing the Jets' toxic culture is the true culprit, not just the head coach. They ultimately debate the catastrophic implications for the franchise's future if upper management makes another ill-fated coaching change.

BT and Sal engage in a fiery clash over Jets Head Coach Aaron Glenn's decision to stick with Justin Fields despite a disastrous performance, refusing to turn to veteran backup Tyrod Taylor. While Glenn argues one bad game shouldn't warrant a benching, Sal rips the logic, insisting the coach missed a critical opportunity to spark a culture change and salvage a win. The hosts debate the true value of seeing what they have in Fields versus attempting to energize a losing team.

BT and Sal unleash a scathing post-mortem on the Jets' brutal London game, declaring the early-morning NFL matchup "unwatchable" and "not real football." Sal proposes an extreme solution: relegate the perpetually bad Jets from TV broadcasts entirely. The hosts and callers dissect the team's myriad of blunders, including the quarterback's "skittish" play, the lack of physical receivers, and a baffling sequence that saw the coach call a time-out only to run the clock out instead of attempting to score, leading to fiery demands for coaching changes and a deep skepticism about the organization's competence.

BT and Sal dive into the brutal reality of the New York Jets' 0-6 start, zeroing in on a critical flaw: their inability to consistently run the football. The hosts argue that if opponents can completely shut down the ground game, the Jets become one-dimensional and "non-competitive," a problem painfully evident in their ugly loss to the Broncos. They discuss the ineffectiveness of the offense, the mounting pressure on rookie head coach Aaron Glenn, and whether the team's dismal record is a fair reflection of their overall performance. The conversation is a fiery autopsy of a season quickly spiraling out of control.

BT and Sal dive into the "unkillable" spirit of New York Jets fans, questioning how they continue to endure the perpetual cycle of disappointment and failure. Sal, a long-suffering Jets fan, describes the commitment of emotion, money, and time to a team that "gives us nothing," labeling it the greatest disparity in all of sport. The hosts discuss the flicker of hope that ignites with new coaches, GMs, and quarterbacks, only to be brutally extinguished by the on-field product. The discussion also features fan calls on the team's dismal performance, the possibility of bringing back Rex Ryan to "shut up the fans," and a heated debate over the efficacy of quarterback Justin Fields versus backup Tyrod Taylor. The segment is a raw, impassioned look at the unique, almost masochistic, loyalty of the Jets fanbase.

BT and Sal take a fiery detour from Jets post-mortems to tackle a more essential, time-honored debate: What truly belongs in tomato sauce? The conversation ignites with a caller defending anchovies in "sauce," quickly escalating into the classic gravy vs. sauce linguistic battle. The hosts don't hold back, sharing their secret ingredients—from fresh basil and red wine to a controversial touch of sugar and the flavor boost of sausage oil—while lamenting the lost art of the Sunday sauce ritual. This segment is a passionate, sometimes-heated, and genuinely funny exploration of food, family traditions, and the impossibility of finding good lasagna when you're not Italian.

BT and Sal dive into a fiery discussion covering Saquon Barkley's compelling documentary, the contentious debate over what ingredients truly belong in a Sunday sauce (or gravy), and the New York Jets' perennial disaster. The Saquon segment dissects how the Giants ownership and former GM Joe Shane disrespected their star running back by prioritizing Daniel Jones and refusing a fair contract, ultimately leading to Barkley's gratifying, Super Bowl-winning escape to the Eagles. The hosts debate the analytics-vs-appreciation approach to running back valuation, with Sal emphasizing the lack of respect shown to a "transcendent player" over a minimal amount of money. Switching gears to the Jets, a passionate caller unleashes a "conspiracy theory" of "stupidity," claiming that Woody Johnson's meddling and poor decision-making have created a cycle of failure. BT defends former coach Eric Mangini as the last guy to truly build the team, arguing that the current regime under GM Joe Douglas and Coach Aaron Glenn is undoing years of accumulating mess. The call of the day highlights the panic over the team potentially "screwing up" a high draft pick. Finally, the show briefly lightens the mood with a spirited culinary detour, sparked by a caller's comment on anchovies in the sauce. The hosts share family sauce/gravy recipes, with Sal revealing his additions of red wine and sugar, before quickly returning to the reality of the 0-6 Jets and the high-stakes, low-confidence outlook for their upcoming game against Carolina. The breaking news of the Titans firing Brian Callahan further frames the discussion on dysfunctional NFL franchises

BT and Sal tear into the New York Jets after yet another embarrassing loss, arguing the team's issues extend beyond quarterback Justin Fields' poor play. The hosts argue that Head Coach Aaron Glenn's "scattered" in-game management, particularly his catastrophic decision-making at the end of the first half, is the more urgent problem. Sal expresses worry that Glenn will be "swallowed up" by the franchise's history of failure and fan discontent, while BT argues Glenn is simply a "first time head coach" learning on the job—though the 0-6 start leaves little room for growth. The conversation then turns to whether a change at quarterback to Tyrod Taylor is necessary to salvage a win against Carolina and whether the Giants can continue their hot streak against the Broncos. They close the segment with a sidebar on St. John's Basketball and Coach Rick Pitino playing golf against Boomer & Gio.

BT and Sal dive headfirst into the Jets' crisis, grappling with the team's abysmal start and the endless cycle of fan suffering. The hosts debate whether coach Aaron Glenn is losing the locker room, tear into Justin Fields' "terrible" play, and discuss the viability of switching to Tyrod Taylor for a "spark" against a tough Broncos defense. From a possible Rex Ryan return to the ludicrous thought of trading for Russell Wilson, the Jets' path forward is a volatile mess. The conversation then shifts to the Mets, focusing on Pete Alonso's massive contract demands, including his reported ask for a seven-year deal. Sal and BT dissect the value of the Polar Bear's power and debate the maximum worth of his extension, contrasting his cornerstone status with the trade potential of players like Francisco Lindor and Brandon Nimmo as the Mets look to build a balanced, winning roster.

BT and Sal explode with excitement following a dominant New York Giants victory over the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles on Prime Time. The hosts celebrate the performance, calling it a "snot-kicking" and a "sustainable" change for the franchise, unlike past fleeting wins. The segment centers on the exhilarating play of rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, who is lauded as a "superstar" with "moxie" and the natural leadership to command the locker room, and running back Cam Skattebo. They praise Head Coach Brian Daboll and the organization for sticking with their plan, noting this win against the reigning Super Bowl champs is the most legitimate and important victory the team has had in years, signifying that "Big Blue is back in business."

BT and Sal unleash a fiery debate on the controversial "Tush Push" (or "Brotherly Shove") play, arguing it's an "unfair" and "cheap" stain on the game that needs immediate action. Speaker 1 (BT) demands an outright ban on the play, calling it "stupid," "boring," and lacking entertainment value, comparing it to a baseball team "bunting for three straight plays." Speaker 2 (Sal) agrees that the play is "unfair" and often involves uncalled false starts by the offensive line, but suggests that if proper penalties were enforced, it might be stopped and thus become a more acceptable battle of power. They both agree on the current play's lack of entertainment and necessity for rule changes, ultimately posing the question: ban the push, or simply call the rules?

BT and Sal deliver a scorching hot take on the state of the NFL, starting with a fiery demand to ban the Eagles' "tush push"—calling it a "cheap," "stupid," and "not entertaining" play with a hidden cheating element (00:00:00). The hosts tear into "Philly Nation" after the Eagles' loss to the Giants and the Phillies' disastrous MLB playoff exit, declaring it a "rough wake up" for the city (00:18:11). The discussion shifts to the euphoric, unfamiliar feeling of watching the Giants finish a game in victory formation (00:30:35), celebrating the "new era" under Brian Daboll and rookie QB Jaxson Dart. BT and Sal explore whether this surge of progress validates the decision to stick with the current coach and GM, arguing that the team's competitive nature means "any game... is now officially winnable"
