Aaron and Ed are joined by Chad, filling in for Jeff, and we finally have a reason to talk about the Reds! Unfortunately, it was largely due to the $3 beer $2 hot dog night flop, plus winning three of four games. Food talk, Bengals talk, rasslin' talk, and everything in between!!

This week we brought on David Simone of Bearcat Journal and The Bengalorian of Bengal superfan lore to break down the Bengals draft, rounding out the Bearvats draft with Dave, then wondering if the Reds will ever win 20 games this season. Draft detailed show, for sure!
