2024-04-111h 142 Bald NutsNCAA Championships are SetWe recap both the Men's and Women's Final Four games and discuss the championship game matchups as March Madness winds down. Zach Edey and Purdue seem to be on a mission while UConn was tested, they continue to roll. The women's side gets the mega matchup everyone wanted, especially the ESPN/ABC executives the ratings are going to be huge as Caitlin Clark and Iowa takes on South Carolina. Ohio State spring football news and notes as it wraps up next Saturday with the annual Spring Game on Fox.
2024-04-071h 192 Bald NutsBack...again as the Final Fours are setWell, after a small hiatus, we're back, just in time for the Final Four is set for both the Men's and Women's tournaments. We breakdown the matchups and how we got there. Ohio State basketball has some movement, players staying, players leaving and another player returning. We also have some fun with our Final Four Madness picks, this time around its our favorite Chinese food dishes. And in case you didn't know, Canadian Geese are Nature's asshole, all that and our trademark tangents.
2024-04-041h 062 Bald NutsBack to the MadnessWe're back, and we know you've missed the tangents. But March Madness has delivered yet again, brackets are busted everywhere. Ohio State hired Jake Diebler officially, we discuss our thoughts, breaking news, we aren't thrilled. On the bright side Jesse Mendez won an individual NCAA wrestling title @ 141lbs class, Buckeye women hoops play Duke in the 2nd round and Women's Hockey goes for a Natty today. In the spirit of the Tournament, we have some fun and give our "Final Four" games of the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES).
2024-03-241h 122 Bald NutsNFL Free Agency Legal TamperingThe craziness of leaked NFL free agency landings even though they can't sign until Wednesday. College basketball conference tournaments take center stage. Ohio State men need to make a run in the BigTen tournament to even be in consideration but there's a chance. Women's team limps into the NCAA tournament with a lackluster showing in the conference tournament, need to get it figured out quick. We get so sideways on a tangent, we forget what we were talking about, but that happens to everyone...right!?
2024-03-131h 012 Bald NutsSpring Forward College Basketball and Spring FootballOhio State Spring football has arrived, after a long month of February we finally have some football again! Chip Kelly wearing scarlet and gray still seems bizarre, but we like it. Buckeye women had to play Caitlin Clark, the Iowa Hawkeyes and the refs on Sunday. We go off on our signature tangents about Nintendo Entertainment System games, movies, boxing and why things were better back in our day. Stay off our lawns, and if you stop in a round-a-bout, I will run your ass over!
2024-03-081h 092 Bald Nuts2 Bald Nuts Looks OfficialOur debut episode with the official show logo!

We also created a Twitter/X account @2BaldNutsPod and just excited and appreciative to have this opportunity and people helping us out. March is here and thus the madness begins on college basketball, Ohio State men and women with big games today. We also talk about the NFL and...2024-03-031h 132 Bald NutsBuckeye HoopsBuckeye hoops takes center stage, the Men win in East Lansing for the first time in 12 years on a buzzer beater, but more importantly the Women are on the verge of an outright Big Ten title and already own a share. A win tonite against TTUN clinches and then sets up a showdown on Sunday against Caitlin Clark and Iowa. We talk the NFL combine, trade rumors, and our favorite, Mock Drafts!
2024-02-291h 082 Bald NutsSo You're Saying There's a ChanceOhio State fires their head coach and goes out and beats the #2 team in the country Purdue (Purdont) Boilermakers. We're just as shocked as anyone, but how long does that energy boost last before the emotional collapse? Casey is on the Jake Diebler bandwagon, and optimistic OSU has a chance to make a run and get into the NCAA tourney, I do not. We talk about some of the football coaching staff additions and extensions. And David Silver, NBA commissioner, makes some interesting comments about college basketball and NIL. All that and our now infamous tangents are just a...2024-02-221h 012 Bald NutsHoltmann's out at OSUWhat a day! Chris Holtmann is finally out as Ohio State men's basketball coach. We've been calling for this for several years now, some were late to the party, but this had to happen. Timing was a bit sooner than expected but this gives Ross Bjork and OSU time to do an extensive search, and we breakdown the candidates and our pick. Conversely OSU women's basketball continues to dominate up to #2 in the country, and we talk about a little thing called the Super Bowl.
2024-02-151h 112 Bald NutsHelp from my FriendsThe Big Ten and the SEC decide to collaborate and discuss the state of college athletics... or they are working to separate themselves officially from the other conferences. They must have listened to our show! Buckeye basketball continues to suck, but the women are playing well and have a huge game today against Indiana. Bill O'Brien could be headed to Chestnut Hill to take the Boston College job, but could be more of a family decision than a football decision, which we would support. All this and more, with a little help from our friends.
2024-02-0452 min2 Bald NutsSame Old Song and DanceAnother game, another loss by Buckeye basketball, same story, another season under Chris Holtmann. Will new Ohio State AD Ross Bjork force his way past Gene Smith to get rid of him? He should, this program is going backwards. At least the #8 ranked Buckeye women keep winning. Casey and I take the gloves off and throw fists over Group of 5 conference schools creating their own playoff/championship. We talk NFL, as the SB is now set between the Niners and Ravens.
2024-02-021h 062 Bald NutsE22 - Rock BottomBuckeye basketball hits rock bottom with an embarrassing 25 point loss at Northwestern, and it really wasn't that close. Women's team on the other end of that spectrum picks up a road win at Illinois in a potential trap game after their big win against Iowa last Sunday. Wrestling continues its dual-meet wins streak with a big one over TTUN and the #1 Women's hockey team dominates with another weekend sweep. NFL Conference Championship Sunday has arrived, the last "true" football games of the season.
2024-01-281h 052 Bald NutsBig Bags of CashBuckeyes continue to hand out big bags of cash in CFB free agency, I mean the transfer portal, as they should. Buckeye women get a huge win over Caitlin Clark and Iowa, Men's team continues to suck. We preview the NFL conference championship games and Casey gives his picks for the weekend. Tangent heavy as we wind down football season and get into the thick of basketball.
2024-01-261h 022 Bald NutsNew AD at OSUOhio State introduces a new Athletic Director Ross Bjork, who is he and what does that mean? Buckeye basketball still sucks, this just copy and past each day as their January slide happens again. NFL enters the second round and some good and yet strange matchups, we discuss those and more. Let's get Nuts!
2024-01-191h 132 Bald NutsWinter Has ArrivedWinter has finally arrived as it's damn cold here in Columbus but the sun is out, blue skies and a light dusting of snow but the show must go on! NFL playoffs are underway and CJ Stroud and the Houston Texans put on a show. We also break down the college football post season player movement and coaching changes. Buckeye basketball continues their January descent. Buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride!
2024-01-141h 142 Bald NutsCoaching CarouselWelp, we didn't see some of these coaching changes, including the greatest college coach of all time Nick Saban retiring... for now, we don't think he's done, where do we see him landing? Buckeyes and Day making coaching changes as well and some more player movement and some juniors decide to come back for another run at scUM. And stay tuned for our breakdown of the Golden Girls... yes, that Golden Girls!
2024-01-111h 052 Bald NutsF-ing EmbarrassingWell, that was an embarrassing performance on Friday in the Cotton Bowl by Ohio State, specifically Ryan Day and the offense. It's not that they lost, they looked completely incompetent and ill-prepared in doing so. Clearly changes need to be made, we give you our take on what those should be. We also talk a little NFL as the Cleveland Browns clinch a playoff spot, and Buckeye basketball tried to give a game away against WVU.
2023-12-311h 232 Bald NutsCotton Bowl PreviewWe welcome a guest host, Slim Jim from Charlotte! We also preview the Cotton Bowl with Ohio State taking on Missouri, what do we want to see, what are our expectations and final predictions? Breaking news, we need to see a different QB, the 2024 starter is not on the roster. And we talk Cleveland Browns, with a win tonite against the Jets, clinch a playoff spot. We may be a day late, but we aren't a dollar short... we're several dollars short!

2 Bald NutsMerry Christmas... EveMerry Christmas football fans! We celebrate with our favorite Christmas movies... it starts with Die Hard, the greatest Christmas movie of all time.. and YES it is a Christmas movie! We talk about the recruiting gifts for the Buckeyes on Wednesday, the team recruiting rankings and what they mean. NFL teams are fighting for the playoffs and one team, the Bengals, took a big hit yesterday. Spread the holiday cheer with the gift of 2 Bald Nuts in their podcast feed this year!
2023-12-241h 092 Bald NutsNational Signing DayWell, the chaos and consternation with the early signing period continues. No idea why anyone wants to be a college coach. We thought Ohio State got a signed commitment from the #1 overall player in the class WR Jeremiah Smith. But reports continue to surface that he hasn't signed the LOI yet. We go off on Ryan Day again, as it appears he is dropping the ball. Listen to us yell and curse!
2023-12-211h 132 Bald NutsCFB Bowl Season StartsCollege football bowl season is upon us, and the transfer portal has gotten completely out of control. NFL takes over Saturday as well with 3 games, we react to those. Buckeye basketball plays like shit, but eventually beats UCLA. We even talk some NBA and NHL, breaking news, it isn't pretty, especially for the Columbus Blue Jackets. We also give a sneak peak to the upcoming CFB signing day which will be a big show on Wednesday.
2023-12-171h 192 Bald NutsHoltmann Still SucksWe're still salty about OSU basketball loss to Penn State, and we yell at coach Chris Holtmann and some players for lackluster effort in the 2nd half collapse. Yes, more transfer portal and NIL conversation as new names keep entering. We also go off on several of our trademark tangents! Casey makes his picks and more...
2023-12-141h 092 Bald NutsCREW MLS CUP CHAMPS!We celebrate the Columbus Crew winning the MLS Cup, their 3rd title in franchise history! Then shortly after that match ended we see OSU basketball blow an 18-point lead in the second half as Chris Holtmann shits down his leg again, we've had enough of him already he needs to be fired, this team and program are going nowhere! We talk more recruiting, transfer portal and NIL as we near the early signing period. And check out SloopyAuctions.com for some unique Buckeye memorabilia.
2023-12-1059 min2 Bald NutsCFP and Transfer PortalWell this was an interesting week! CFP committee pisses off one school, not to our surprise though as we discuss who's in the college football playoffs. Transfer portal opens and by opens, we mean the flood-gates have opened and the Buckeyes casualties list is quite extensive including its starting QB Kyle McCord. What QBs in the portal will/should Ryan Day target? Also MLS soccer talk! I said that right... as the Columbus Crew look for their 3rd MLS Cup... Go Crew!
2023-12-071h 132 Bald NutsCFB Conference Championship EditionConference championship games are in the books and the politicking began before the games and continued into the morning. The committee for the first time has to actually work to put the "best" four or do they go "most deserving"? How do we see it? And what tangents do we go on in today's episode. Plus some Buckeye basketball talk as they begin Big Ten play against Minnesota.
2023-12-031h 102 Bald NutsMore Buckeye FalloutWe lament more about the Buckeyes loss to Michigan. As bad as it is there still an outside chance to make the playoffs and we discuss those scenarios. Buckeye bball solid start to the year but can they maintain through January and B1G play? Casey makes his picks against the spread for Championship Weekend.
2023-11-301h 032 Bald NutsFIRE RYAN DAYFIRE RYAN DAY... we call, for Ryan Day's head as Ohio State loses for the third straight year to Michigan. No intensity, no aggression, lack or ingenuity or creativity on offense. No Alpha leaders on the team, especially Day and Kyle McCord. We are disgusted, embarrassed and are getting flashbacks to the 90s and the John Cooper Era. Something has to change now... cause the only way this gets rectified is a win in 364 days.
