It's our annual tradition, and this year it comes with a twist — our Seattle Seahawks are defending a Super Bowl. We go position group by position group through the roster heading into 2026: an offensive line built on continuity, Sam Darnold's turnover profile, a receiving corps anchored by JSN and Rashid Shaheed, a tight end room we think could be special, and a defense we believe is the best in the league under Mike Macdonald. We land on our record predictions and make our case for a repeat. Then we get looser — a "sports hate" riff on Aaron Donald and the Rams, stories from a trip to France, community shoutouts, a great fan email, and a Do Better and Better at Life segment you won't want to miss.

We weren't intending to have so many controversial stories this week, but here we are with some spicy topics on our hands. The main discussion was new research on Ethiopian athlete training, described as an “AI-assisted” study. The findings are cool, and we discuss those training points. But looking at the bigger picture, we have major fears about the use of AI writing across exercise physiology literature. The future is going to be weird and sloppy.We also talked about the $500 Adidas trail shoe. David thinks it's a big “screw you” to trail runners. Megan is also concerned, but thinks he needs to chill. You know, the usual. And there were tons of topics with varying levels of spice! Other topics: UTMB scores, Megan's popsicle form, Edmonton Marathon's mis-measurement, Kilian and Jim out of UTMB, age group doping, the blueberry recall, our problems with hog watch, Mike Macdonald's coaching prowess through vulnerability, the Lost Soul Ultra, emails from PED companies, zone compression for speed-oriented athletes, and lots more!As always, remember that many of the points we make are wrong, and if so, it was a joke. But if you agree with it, we were serious.We love you all!
