    The Reality Check Podcast: Hot Takes, Sleepy Takes, and Tricks of the Trade This week on The Reality Check Podcast, the lineup brought a slight twist as C Nic aka Yoda hit the road with his family, leaving his mic to the fiery takes of special guest host Elliot the Terrapin Gator. True to form, Elliot brought the heat and more than a few scorching opinions to the table, keeping the rest of the crew on their toes. Meanwhile, J Nic started the show a bit on the sleepy side, but just like a game-winning drive, he rallied strong in the final stretch. As always, Scully took charge like the true ringleader he is. A Fighting Illini alum and former NFL long snapper, Scully has a knack for keeping the conversation sharp, steering the ship with questions and topics as precise as his snaps back in the day. This week's episode was a knockout—literally—as the boyz dove deep into the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight. They broke down the spectacle and what it means for boxing’s new-age vs. old-school clash. They didn’t stop there, taking it to the octagon to discuss the explosive world of UFC, featuring appearances from Trump, Elon Musk, and Jon Jones. If you thought the fights were spicy, just wait until you hear the takes. Of course, The Reality Check wouldn’t be complete without Trick’s Picks, the golden locks of the sports world. Trick made his college and NFL predictions with his trademark confidence, sprinkling in his signature segment, “What Sands My Paper,” to let us know what’s been grinding his gears lately. Spoiler: he didn’t hold back. Rounding things out, Shooter kept us entertained with This Day in Sports History, serving up some surprising and laugh-out-loud moments from the past. It’s a fan-favorite segment for a reason, and Shooter once again nailed the delivery. Whether you're here for the hot takes, the locks of the week, or just the hilarious banter, this episode of The Reality Check Podcast delivered in every way. Catch the latest episode streaming now, and as always, stay tuned for more sports, laughs, and unfiltered takes with the boyz! 🎧 Listen to The Reality Check Podcast wherever you stream, and don’t forget to follow us for updates on social media!

    The Reality Check : Prez 47, Picks, and Nickname Shenanigans This week on The Reality Check Podcast, the crew dives deep into the latest moves from Prez 47 himself, Donald J. Trump. With whispers of cabinet picks and all the juicy drama of a second Trump term, the boys have a few opinions of their own on who might snag a seat at the table (and who definitely shouldn’t). Will Trump’s lineup be a mix of Washington vets, or are we talking the wild cards only Reality Check could predict? On to the gridiron! Mike Scully, J Nic from Free Shoes University, Trick from Southern Alabama, and the ever-wise C Nic aka Yoda bring their A-game for the week's College and NFL Picks. Shooter keeps it steady behind the board, but his allegiance? We’ll let you find that out. The big questions this week: Can the Chiefs keep the streak alive, and will the Packers keep reminding the Bears why Chicago can’t catch a break? And don’t even get us started on Tennessee vs. Georgia—it’s SEC showdown time, baby. For the fantasy football heads, the crew’s throwing out some sleeper picks bound to stir up the league! Now, if football’s your sport but nicknames are your jam, buckle up. It’s nickname game time, and things got... interesting. J Nic and Shooter dished out new monikers for each other, and let's just say these names might not be Hall of Fame material. In fact, these nicknames might just set off a feud we’ll be following for a while! And if that wasn’t enough, J Nic came in hot this week, getting a bit confrontational with Trick. Who won this war of words? Tune in to hear it straight from the source. Of course, we’re serving it all with slices of 3 City Pizza, straight outta Cape Coral, Florida. Massive shoutout to our sponsors—Coastal Title Company and Coastal Waterfront Rentals with Peter—keeping us in business and keeping your waterfront dreams alive. Whether you’re in for the sports hot takes, the Trump talk, or just here for the nickname game, don’t miss this week’s Reality Check. Make sure you subscribe on YouTube, TikTok, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts for all the banter, breakdowns, and wild predictions!

    Reality Check Recap: The Election Special and Football Fire! This week on The Reality Check Podcast, our all-star team of hosts took on a spicy episode, blending politics, football, and classic Reality Check antics. Mike Scully, as always, calls the plays in the huddle, steering the conversation with his signature smooth style. In a surprising political twist, the crew celebrated Trump’s big election win, hopeful that he’ll deliver on his promises. Now, while the podcast usually strays from heavy political talk, this time they couldn’t hold back – after all, there’s a lot on the line! As for football, let’s just say… J Nic’s picks have been an absolute disaster. If he had a dollar for every wrong prediction, he’d be buying waterfront property and using Coastal Title every month! With a record that looks like he’s picking out of a hat, J Nic has earned himself some serious roasting. Meanwhile, Trick continues to bring the heat, laying down picks with military precision. The man’s got his NFL and college football insights down pat, and if we’re being honest, he’s probably carrying the show’s betting cred on his back. But no one is running hotter than Yoda, whose wisdom and uncanny ability to call the game make him the true MVP. Yoda’s knowledge is so vast, you’d think he’s got some kind of secret hotline to the football gods. If you’re putting your money down, take it from Yoda—he’s got the foresight of a Jedi Master and isn’t afraid to let the crew know it! The crew didn’t just stop at picks this week—they dove into Fantasy Football insights, dishing out recommendations that will make or break your lineup. Brought to you by 3 City Pizza, Coastal Title, and Coastal Vacation Properties, this episode is the perfect blend of laughs, predictions, and a little political edge. So, grab a slice, tune in, and catch Mike, Trick, Yoda, Shooter, and (if you dare) J Nic, as they bring you the week’s biggest insights, Reality Check style
