With high schools around the state returning to the gridiron, New Jersey’s top pigskin rivalries will soon be renewed. But which ones are best? Jeremy is joined by NJ.com and Star-Ledger sports columnist Steve Politi to break down why rivalries are different in New Jersey (5:43), the significance of Thanksgiving football (12:43), how parents fuel the rivalries (18:45) and which rivalry is indeed the state’s best (34:40).

  • Is Jersey City Still Jersey or Just Expensive? A Deep Dive into N.J.’s ‘6th Borough’ (Yuck)

    Is Jersey City Still Jersey or Just Expensive? A Deep Dive into N.J.’s ‘6th Borough’ (Yuck)
    Aug 27 2025
    Jersey City was once squarely in the shadow of Hoboken, its mile square neighbor to the northeast. In the past decade-plus, Chilltown has gone from afterthought to cultural epicenter. But not all the change has been good. The resurgence has also brought soaring rents — at one point, the city had the highest rent in the country — which has threatened to dilute one of America’s most diverse cities. Yes, the 2010s put Jersey City back on the map. But it’s no secret the city’s vibe and feel have shifted distinctly. Has this ruined what made the city great in the first place? Jeremy is joined by Jersey City native John Erbach to discuss what it was like growing up in the city in the ‘90s (3:23), how the city has changed (10:18), why Jersey City isn’t New York’s “sixth borough” (19:02) and what has remained the same in town (21:22). Then John runs through the Garden State Gauntlet, Jersey City edition (38:36)! Email us!

It is officially peak tomato season in the Garden State, and there is no better time to enjoy the delicious red vegetable — one that has a distinct connection to New Jersey. Not a tomato fan? Have no fear. Jeremy is joined by tomato expert Laura Brahn, owner of Cardinal Provisions in Asbury Park and Mabel in Holmdel, for the ultimate guide to enjoying New Jersey’s top crop. Listen as Jeremy and Laura break down how New Jersey popularized the tomato (1:23), invented the most popular tomato in the world (2:13), the joys of Tomato Girl Summer (3:49), the characteristics of a good tomato (7:55), the dirty little secret about tomato sandwiches (18:49) and how heirloom tomatoes represent New Jersey immigrants (22:35). Then, Laura flips the script on Jeremy and administers a blind tomato taste test (32:13)! Email us!
