The Impact of COVID

Scully and Uncle Marv discuss how the pandemic has changed the way we timestamp events and reflect on pre- and post-COVID life. They touch on how it has impacted travel and work-life balance, particularly for those in the IT industry.

Sports Nostalgia

From boxing legends like Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield to NBA greats like Michael Jordan and LeBron James, they reminisce about the golden ages of various sports and debate the current state of the games. They express their disappointment in the all-star games because of showboating instead of true defense.

College Football

They dive into the controversial topic of college football playoffs, the exclusion of Florida State, and the influence of ESPN on conference favoritism. Scully and Uncle Marv passionately advocate for college athletes getting paid and critique the existing system.

Education and Trade Schools

The podcast shifts to the value of college education versus trade schools, questioning whether a four-year degree is always the best path, especially with rising tuition costs. They also discuss the skills gap in the trades.
