In this episode, we talk about the weekend's NFL playoffs and then catch up on all the sports highlights that we haven’t had a chance to talk about from December to now; this includes MLB, NHL, NBA, PBA and the UFC. Plus, we give you our reading and viewing recommendations.

Also we had some technical issue when recording this episode, you will hear some crackling occasionally.

sports we didn’t get to in the last sports edition. After introductions, James turns the show over to Chris

  3. Elvis Merzļikins (merz-LEE-kins) save against Nashville at beginning of OT on December 30th to keep Columbus alive so they could win in a 5 round shootout (I couldn't find this one, so have a fun save against Carolina from last week instead!)
