Covering the many, many things that all of yinz luv...
A breakdown of the 2026 Grammy Awards with Music Journalist, Writer, and Editor, Bianca Gracie. What we liked, what didn't like, what made us cringe, and what made us fight back tears.
Angelo Carriero returns to unpack the AFC and NFC Championship games, as well as the Pittsburgh Steelers naming Mike McCarthy their new head coach.
Jim and Mike breakdown the Divisional Playoffs, featuring two overtime thrillers and a controversial call that ended another heartbreaking Bills' season. They close out the episode by dissecting the "10 Falls of Mike Tomlin."
This week on Yinz Luv, I'm joined by Angelo Carriero, who helps me break down an utterly thrilling Wildcard Weekend. A few hours before we hit record, we also found out that Mike Tomlin was walking away from the Pittsburgh Steelers after their 30-6 defeat against the Texans. We'll discuss if this is good news or bad news for yinzers worldwide.
It's time for the Free For All, an annual recap of my favorite songs of the year, mixed it with some commentary and info about each artist. The goal, as always, is to get a few new songs on your latest workout, laundry, dishwashing, or road trip playlist. Enjoy!

Recapping Super Bowl LIX with the mastermind behind 60 Second Classics, Mike Camerlengo. What’s it take for a Quarterback NOT to win an MVP? How locked in can you be on a Super Bowl when you have two kids? What did we think of the new FOX score bug?
A breakdown of the 2025 Grammy Awards with Music Journalist, Writer, and Editor, Bianca Gracie.
Did we think Cowboy Carter was going to be the Beyonce album that broke her Album of the Year drought? How did a diss track from Kendrick Lamar end up winning Song and Record of the Year? Was Teddy Swims tempted to tear off his first layer of clothes like Benson Boone and Doechii did before him?

As we look ahead to next week's Super Bowl matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, we revisit an indelible memory of sports lore: Eagles Court (aka "The Vet Jail").
Justice Seamus McCaffery talks about the history of the jail inside of Philadelphia's Veteran's Stadium, what prompted the city to make such a creation, and what results it yielded.
The Vet Jail is more than myth, it was real, it happened, and we break it all down with the judge who presided over every case in it.
Dr. Will Dieter steps in at the last second to help breakdown the NFL Conference Championships. Will the Eagles win their Super Bowl rematch with the Chiefs in the same way they did with the Patriots? Do we really believe that the refs are pulling for Patrick Mahomes? Who has it worse than Buffalo?
This week we are joined by WFUV's Madi Dembele to breakdown the NFL's Divisional Round, which saw the NFC's #1 seed, Detroit Lions, lose in a shocker to the Washington Commanders. Is Jayden Daniels a robot? How is game planning for a Little League game similar to preparing for the Chiefs? Who will make it to Super Bowl LIX?
