Founded in May 2005, TGO Radio is one of the 25 longest-running podcasts in history. Starring Brian Wise and Jeff Durant. New episodes available every Friday. NSFW.
Be sure to secure the Waffle Houses, because Jocktober is getting urban this week, as we visit Boston’s “The GetUp Crew.” It’s a dynamic completely unknown in the radio world, where they have a regular guy, a probably wacky sports guy, and a hole to keep them in line. You won’t believe it.
* Like last week’s show, and maybe a million other shows across the country, The GetUp Crew has a “Second Date Update” segment. This one might even be real (wink).
* As the male half of the pretend couple answers the phone, Brian loses patience with this bit’s fakeness, and calls the host a “sellout punk bitch” for laughing at the guy.
* In the space of sixty seconds, Brian tells two of his best jokes, and he's exceedingly proud of them.
* Brian confesses that when he saw that girl a few months ago, he left his debit card at home and texted his son the address, "just in case." But he would go back.
* Eva Marie Saint died (https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/story/2026-10-06/eva-marie-saint-dead-north-by-northwest-on-the-waterfront), and the Dead Pool remains tied at 3.
* The boys recount the Great Pussy Crash of 1931.
* A low IQ 23-year-old woman strolled into a high school, pretended she was a substitute teacher (https://www.fox6now.com/news/mps-substitute-teacher-imposter-court-100626), then started yelling at and insulting the kids.
* The boys have had it with these local news reporters and their gay Top Gun mustaches.

Jocktober
Brian has talked about doing it for almost the whole life of this show, and this year we’re finally doing it: Jocktober. It was an Opie and Anthony tradition where they analyzed bad radio from across the country, and it’s finally made its way down to us. Here are some highlights to entice you to listen:
* This week we’re listening to Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Brian runs down their cast bios; one of them inexplicably won a Marconi award. The third mic is named Jose, and he’s “wacky.”
* The callers definitely aren’t fake.
* Jose has a great laugh and he’s always on mic. (Is this opposite stuff working for you?)
* Brian introduces Jeff to felching and explains what “the hole” does on these radio shows.
* Brian’s theory on the Cornell case, and why he had to do a deep dive on it.
* They call “Erica,” and our Jeff tries to get into the spirit of the phone gimmick.
* The flamethrower chicken strip basket leads to flamethrower dumps.
* Old Fred Durst did it all for the bran.
* Fartin’ and felchin’.

Bat Prep
This week’s show opens with a story about a man who basically pepper sprayed an entire row of people in a movie theater (https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/man-allegedly-pepper-sprays-moviegoer-for-using-phone-in-burbank-theater/?intcid=CNM-00-10abd1h), and continues with:
* Brian recalls the story of the writer who yanked some stranger’s phone out of their hand and threw it away.
* The boys went to see Baby Metal in Michigan.
* A mention of Skid Row leads the boys into a discussion of butt rock bands, Betty Boop, and Olive Oyl.
* Brian took notes on the trip, such as Jeff tried to kill them, they saw a bald, midgie Dave Mustaine in line, Brian was never happier to be a man than at this show, and more.
* Carrot Top attempted suicide (https://nypost.com/2026/09/18/us-news/carrot-top-hospitalized-after-attempted-suicide-friday-vegas-show-canceled-report/), and Brian has a theory, b/w Barry Bonds steroid head.
* Baseball playoff talk.
* The Feel Good Story of the Week: A woman fell into an old tank in her yard, and was rescued (https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/long-island-woman-rescued-after-plunging-into-hole/).
* The show’s first Lindsay Clancy reference, b/w Susan Smith and woman hormones.
* A woman woke up to find a bat trying to get into her mouth (https://www.wral.com/news/ap/virginia-woman-wakes-up-finds-bat-in-mouth-august-2026/), and introducing Cos the Bat.
* An old woman admitted to killing her husband in March (https://www.kbtx.com/2026/09/22/woman-tells-police-im-scared-i-might-have-killed-husband-who-police-found-dismembered-home/).
* Brian tells the classic (?) Four Below story.
* Next week, we’re going to try Jocktober for the first time.
