"Straight No Chaser: Culture Wars, Clown Fans, and College Football Chaos"
Chris Howard is back on Plugged In with the straight truth and zero sugarcoating. From Santa Ono’s failed audition for Florida to the SEC’s loyalty pledge mess, this episode exposes the games being played off the field—and what real leadership should look like.
Chris takes aim at Aaron Rodgers, breaks down why Gabby Thomas deserves more protection than parody, and calls out the growing disrespect fueled by sports betting culture. He praises Derek Carr for walking away with dignity, questions the Knicks’ move on Thibs, and crowns the Thunder as the team that finally got it right.
Plus: a heartfelt tribute to Sports Science creator John Brenkus, and a reality check for Texas fans chasing a natty dream built on hype, not grit.
It’s loyalty vs. leverage. Vibes vs. values. And legacy vs. likes.
This episode? Unskippable.
