Title: Super Bowl Defensive Masterclasses & The $180 Burger Debacle | This Is True, Really News

Is the offensive line playing in "beginner mode," or is the defense just that good? Scot Combs and Tony Verkinnes break down the grit and grind of the big game, where the battle in the trenches actually determined the winner. From the tactical brilliance of defensive fronts to a certain Seattle running back with serious wheels, we’re cutting through the "cheese" to get to the heart of football.

But it’s not all sports. We’re diving into the culinary madness of the $180 "LX Hammer" Burger. Does blue cheese fondue and a bone-in beef shank justify that price tag, or is it just a "toxic waste dump in Flavortown"?

In this episode:

• The Trenches: Why the nine people up front are the only ones who actually win football games—and why everything else is just show and tell.

• Olympic Highlights: Gold medals in bobsledding, legendary cross-country skiing kicks, and the historic USA/Canada women’s hockey rivalry that never disappoints.

• Wackadoodle Tech & News: An AI bot that founded its own religion (Crustafarianism) while its owner slept, the Olympic village condom shortage, and the boxer who literally had his hair punched off.

• Listener Mailbag: Star Trek transporter "goop," why influencers are a foot-up-the-backside away from being useful, and the inevitable mention of Mel Brooks.
