FOJ 74 - He Hate Me, Steak Love Me
from FOJ SHOW · host FOJ SHOW
Jeff and Jason are back for FOJ 74 — dedicated to Bears Hall of Fame offensive tackle Jimbo Covert, the man who wore #74. The guys kick things off with the shortest NFL career in recent memory (RIP the Squirrel White era), dive deep into Bears retired jerseys, and somehow end up down a Rod "He Hate Me" Smart rabbit hole. Jay's Wide World of Sports covers a hot Cubs squad, a White Sox glow-up, NBA playoff action, the NBA Draft Lottery (Bulls land #4!), and Blackhawks rebuild news. Jeff recommends Letterkenny, previews his upcoming trip to Berlin, and drops a fun fact about why the Berlin Wall really fell. Then things get emotional — Jason's son wraps up his college baseball career. To close it out, Jeff recaps a legendary dinner at Salt Steakhouse in New Jersey, complete with a $400 tomahawk steak and the best mashed potatoes of his life.00:00 - Intro & Episode Numbering Drama02:00 - Jim Covert, #74, and the NFL Draft07:30 - Squirrel White Retires After One Rookie Mini Camp12:00 - Bears Retired Jerseys Deep Dive19:00 - Rod "He Hate Me" Smart & The XFL25:00 - Jay's Wide World of Sports: Cubs, White Sox & MLB Standings30:00 - NBA Playoffs: Knicks, Wembanyama Ejection, Cavs/Pistons32:30 - NBA Draft Lottery: Bulls Get the #4 Pick38:00 - Blackhawks Update: NHL Draft & Roman Kancerov43:30 - Letterkenny Recommendation46:00 - Which Major Sport Would You Kill Off?52:00 - Jeff's Berlin Trip Preview1:02:00 - The Real Reason the Berlin Wall Fell1:07:00 - Man in the High Castle Review1:13:00 - Jason's Son's Final College Baseball Game1:18:00 - Buffalo Wild Wings Gets One Right (Bradley, IL)1:19:30 - Salt Steakhouse NJ: The $400 Tomahawk & Epic Dinner1:32:00 - Delta Airlines RantFOJ, Friends of Jeff, FOJ podcast, Chicago Bears, Jim Covert, Squirrel White, NFL rookie minicamp, Bears retired jerseys, Rod Smart He Hate Me, XFL, Chicago Cubs winning streak, White Sox 2025, MLB standings, NBA playoffs, Knicks, Wembanyama ejection, NBA draft lottery, Chicago Bulls, Cam Boozer, Blackhawks rebuild, Roman Kancerov KHL, Letterkenny, Berlin travel, Berlin Wall history, Man in the High Castle, college baseball, Buffalo Wild Wings, Salt Steakhouse New Jersey, tomahawk steak, sports podcast, sports and food podcast
