These Aren't Our Monkeys | EP 58

from Wasted Wagons · host Patrick Taplin

This episode is packed with storylines from every corner of the sports world—and a little chaos from Mississippi.We kick things off with the Saints, who turned to Tyler Shough as their starting quarterback in a tough loss to the Rams. We break down how he looked, what worked, what didn’t, and where New Orleans goes from here. Then it’s on to baseball, where the Dodgers have officially gone back-to-back as World Series champions. College football didn’t disappoint either, and the coaching carousel has already started spinning. We walk through the latest NCAA firings, the jobs that are opening up, who might be next, and which programs could be on the rise—or in for a long rebuild.Hockey season is also underway, so we give early impressions of our teams: what surprised us, what concerns us, and which players already look locked in. Off the field, we recap Sean’s annual Halloween party. And somehow the strangest story of the week didn’t happen at the party but on a Mississippi highway, where a wreck led to actual monkeys escaping. It’s a full episode—sports, costumes, and chimps.
