About this Episode
We won't lie, we're drunk on victory and it's a bit of a goofy pod today as we relentlessly torment Aaron, who torments us back with semantics, and somehow in the midst of all this we talk about another unbelievable effort from the Dukies...this time on the road against Miami. A complete effort turned a game we unanimously thought would be tough into a complete laugher, and together we toast the Blue Devils—and the return of Great Cassius—while talking about philosophical matters such as the true "music of the game."

Episode 2-1: Return to LazieTown
WHAT'S THIS? THE LAZIES ARE BACK?!?! Shane, Ariana, and Aaron are in their new venue, Mike Krzyz-SHED-ski, talking Gonzaga, Kentucky, and everything we've missed in the last 20 months. It's catch-up time, and the whole gang's here. We've missed each other, we've missed you, we've missed Duke. Let's do this.
Episode 33: ACC Tourney Pre-Show
Not even a so-so Skype connection can keep Shane and Ariana from "previewing" the ACC tournament, by which we mostly mean having the conversation we've been dying to have about J-Rob, since Ariana missed the post-UNC pod. We talk about our hero, and Duke's chances to prevail in the conference tournament and beyond. Coach K knows there's an answer. Sponsored by the coronavirus.
Episode 32: J-ROB and the Carolina Sweep
It's the Justin Robinson game! There's a lot to say about the second UNC win, and here to say it is Shane, Aaron, Shane's stepdad, and a very special intro from Shane's mom. It's a family affair, plus Aaron, and we're here to talk about the man of the hour. There's also plenty of Tre Jones, and we're all Vernie Bros again. Plus, should Coach K be fired for missing J-Rob all this time. It ends with Shane forcing Aaron to say something nice, and of course the Skype connection goes shoddy.
Episode 31: Hoo Boy
It's bad enough to have to watch Virginia basketball for two hours, but for the whole thing to culminate in a loss is pain beyond telling. We try to make the best of a bad situation as Duke continues to stumble into the postseason. Are there silver linings? Aaron thought of one, but folks, you're not going to like it. Some Les Mis, thanks to Coach K, plus lots of Twitter questions. Onward, we guess.
Episode 30: In the Wake of Disaster
The inexcusable loss. The narrative shatterer. This is the one we can't rationalize, folks, but we're here to spread doom and gloom, and then find the ray of sunshine. It's Shane, Ariana, and Aaron ringing in the 30th episode in the worst way possible after the Wake Forest loss. What's our ceiling? Where's our redemption? Is the ACC lost for good? All that, plus a new podcast ad, texts from Ariana to her family, and a surprising amount of singing.
Episode 29: Whiplash Week
We are BACK AS HELL, and we are talking about the N.C. State drubbing, and the comeback win against Virginia Tech. With Florida State, Louisville, and we Dukies tied atop the league, the endgame promises to be scintillating. We catch up on the squad, iron out our plans for the rest of the season, and ask: If Cassius plays like this always, WILL WE EVER LOSE?
Episode 28: Irish Eyes Are Weeping Profusely
In one glorious five-minute stretch, Duke transcended the misery-laden world and showed us what basketball would be like in the ethereum. The rest of the game was really good to. Shane and Aaron are on hand to discuss a Duke classic, and a much-needed coronation-slash-celebration against Notre Dame. We also take listener questions, and spend a surprising amount of time discussing Mosaic Law in the interest of avenging Cassius.
Episode 27: The Best Win of the Year
You read the title, FOOLS. The Florida State win was a gem, and Shane, Ariana, and Aaron are here to wax jubilant about a true triumph of toughness, teamwork, and the third famous T which I won't deign to name here. We also have a new ad, we categorize Duke's hatable whites, and we ask an important question: What would you do if you were invisible? Content warning: This episode contains references to perverts and al-Qaeda.
Episode 26: Instant Reaction to the Florida State Win
It's Shane jamming solo moments after the Florida State game, a gritty gutty triumph that went to the Blue Devils, as Ariana and Aaron cowardly refuse to record until Tuesday. Shane can't wait, so listen here for 17 minutes of gushing about the tremendous team performance that earned Duke a win under very difficult circumstances. WE ARE SO HAPPY.
