Alpha ExchangeKieran Goodwin, Consultant, Saba Capital ManagementKieran Goodwin’s roots go back to the early days of both distressed debt investing and the credit default swap market, two classes of risk he has seen experience significant change over the last 25 years. Our conversation gets underway by exploring the notion of alpha decay in the distressed market, a diminishing opportunity set that has resulted from smarter capital entering the space, equipped with an understanding of the often complicated process around bankruptcy and reorganization. Kieran frames out the option characteristics of distressed investing in an interesting way, suggesting that the short or long profile of the exposure is...

Pete watched a few of the games, Dean was too busy on an absurd Vegas rampage to appreciate much of the action, and Ric's already hearing Boss music for Purdue's tournament run. We finally grind through to the end, lift up Ric's spirits, give out some winners for Shohei, and get the gears turning for baseball season.

We start with Pete and Dean giving Ric a free counseling session on what it's like being a fan of a basement-dwelling football team. The Rigs continue to be directionally-challenged but we manage to pick our winners of every NFL division. We move over to college football where we're jumping on the Michigan scorched earth bandwagon and trying to predict what chaos is going to happen with the College Football Playoff. Because of the long layoff, Ric delivers not one, not two, not three...but actually just two dumb observations...

We start on a high note with the Jets and Zach Wilson turning the corner (or at least "a corner"), before diving into depressing matters of Anthony Richardson being done for the season and the Patriots being horrendous. We do our weekly state of the union for the Bears and discuss the best...and worst...teams in the NFL as we near the midway point. We then pivot to college football, do our best to skip over a certain...
2023-10-191h 09The Big RigsEpisode XXXIV - Rigs to the rescueThe Rigs return in their attempt to maintain a weekly schedule and Pete is fired up.

While attempting and failing to stay on track, we discuss college football and preview some of the premier matchups this weekend. We get to...
2023-10-061h 28The Big RigsEpisode XXXIII - AccountabilityThe Rigs return after a long hiatus thanks to a poorly-scheduled Euro trip. Since nothing happened while we were away, this is a short episode. Pete takes us down memory lane of opening weekend for the Jets and gives us the state of the union of the Zach Wilson Jets (with a shoutout to Mark Sanchez). Dean's team is somehow 2-1 but their stud rookie cannot finish a game, so that's something. Meanwhile, Ric's team has a lighthouse. We pivot over to college and discuss some of the early surprises of the college season and confirm that Ric still "...
2023-09-281h 43The Big RigsEpisode XXXII - The NFL...has returned!The Rigs return just in time for the start of the NFL season...but first, we recap a fun opening weekend of college football.

2023-09-071h 07The Big RigsEpisode XXXI - Wake up, it's time for footballThe Rigs return on the other side of a long, hot summer of baseball and the juices are flowing! Ric can barely contain his excitement, despite his frustrations with FOX's score-bug. Pete is still coming down from the high of the Minnesota-Nebraska rock fight, but takes some time to school us on "culture" as well as drop some facts about Minnesota's defense (CITATION NEEDED). Dean attempts to give some analysis, but ends up having to school Pete on geography. (Needless to say, Pete might not totally grasp the uproar around the conference realignment.) We start a new slate for gambling...
2023-09-011h 10The Big RigsEpisode XXX - Football is comingThe Rigs return with their thirtieth episode and are about tapped out on summer baseball. Pete is ready to turn the tables on Ric, Ric's excited about yet another jumbotron, and Dean might still be asleep after Vail. We read into 5 minutes of preseason action, try to catch up with all of the conference realignment, and successfully avoid an extended Purdue segment. Instead of doing picks, we discuss Phil Mickelson and Dean having similar gambling success and light the bat signal for any guests that want to come on the pod.
2023-08-1152 minThe Big RigsEpisode XXIX - The Yankees are DeadThe Rigs return with an update on the Yankees historic run and Pete's dealings with lawnmower customer support. Fortunately for Big Rig Nation (and unfortunately for Pete), the pod keeps receipts so we call in the Replay booth to hold ourselves accountable. We then take a dive into the NFL, discussing aging running backs trying to find work in the AFC East, Jim Irsay going off the rails again, Pete's nose surgery, and picking some division winners. Finally, we close with a requested Women's World Cup update, so there's that.
2023-08-0158 minThe Big RigsEpisode XXVIII - Yankees are back!The Rigs return...and so have the Yankees? Pete can barely control his excitement about the Yankees future, and Ric & Dean are happy for him. We run through MLB news, trade deadline discussions, and discuss the requirements for not getting booed in the Bronx. We then scratch the football itch and discuss the Jets future, some throwback uniforms, running back compensation, and start listing out possible contenders for next season. Finally, we close out with a couple of Yankees picks, because their fans care too much.
2023-07-241h 06The Big RigsEpisode XXVII - You up?The Rigs return thanks to Carlos Rodon finally making his Yankees debut. We recap the first half of the MLB season, the Home Run Derby, and Ric getting texts from exes about the Red Sox. We then take a quick look at the Vegas Summer League, an even quicker look at the NFL, and then discuss Pete's second-favorite B1G school making national news. Finally, we close with picks because apparently Dean has money again.
2023-07-1153 minThe Big RigsEpisode XXVI - Big Rig SummerThe Rigs return from mowing the lawn with a rundown of the summer's sporting events. The NBA season is over and the location of Titletown is unknown. The Red Sox, Astros, and Yankees all stink so the Rigs are desperate for sports discussion. Pete gives us a Formula 1 plug, big golf fan Dean talks LIV/PGA, and Ric breaks the news on Dean Blandino's tattoos and eating hot dogs. We don't close out with picks because Dean is out of money.
2023-06-2957 minThe Big RigsEpisode XXV - Return of the RigsThe Rigs return after an extended hiatus. No excuses, no explanations. We cover the NBA Finals and look ahead to life on the pod without the NBA. Pete provides his Yankees spin zone, Ric is happy, and Dean hands over the title of NBA expert. As always, we provide an update on the status of Titledown's location, check the temperature in Las Vegas, set a new record for shortest Purdue segment, and close out with some winners and a special shoutout.
2023-06-1246 minThe Big RigsEpisode XXIV - The 4th Big RigThe Rigs return with a special guest from the front office...We discuss the NBA Conference Finals (THIS IS NOT A CELTICS SOB STORY), championship head coaches, and the current vacancy of Titletown. Later on, we renew our vows as an anti-cheating podcast, Pete calls out the MLB PA for punishing cheating, and we wish Aaron Hicks the best of luck with his future endeavors.

The Celtics are back, the Warriors are dead, Pete loves the NBA, and Dean is getting his popcorn ready for the Draft lottery.
