Welcome to The Back Office Show — where two ex-smoothie shop managers trade in shift schedules for sports talk, parlays, and friendly smack. Born behind the “Do Not Disturb” sign of a dusty back office, this podcast blends hot takes, game picks, trivia, and banter brewed during downtime on the job.
Every episode, we kick off with five minutes of unfiltered catch-up, dive into ten minutes of what’s happening across football, basketball, baseball (and whatever else we’re arguing about), then wrap it with five minutes of sports trivia that’ll either impress or embarrass us.
We’re not experts. We’re just off the clock
In this week’s episode, we dive deep into fantasy football. We break down our own teams, debating the sleepers that could shock everyone, and calling out the squads that might quietly rise to the top this season. We also share our takes on which teams look overhyped and which ones might actually deliver. On top of football talk, wedding week in Idaho. It’s a blend of fantasy strategy and season predictions you won't want to miss!

We’re back with a loaded Episode 8, starting with the Chargers' dominant win over the Lions in the Hall of Fame Game — turnovers, touchdowns, and a statement from Trey Lance. Then, we get into some serious player movement talk: Micah Parsons hinting he wants out of Dallas, Terry McLaurin exploring a trade from Washington, and the Lakers pulling off a massive move by locking up Luka Dončić on a new deal. As always, we mix in a few takes you probably won’t hear on the main networks and wrap it ...
