These two scarecrows don't have brains, but we've got a whole lot of heart as we do some lengthy vents and FN Idiot segments to catch up on everything infuriating us over the past few weeks. Will we ever make it home to Kansas? Or will we be captured by the witch's flying monkey army?

FN 131 - Rollin in the D, or Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Starfish

Poor Santa, there's a pill for that. Unload that sack. Happy Belated Christmas to our listeners! This has been a delayed episode because of the Man in the Michigan Hat's worst Christmas of all time. But he finally got his act together and edited the audio, so enjoy our Christmas-themed topics and segments.

FN 116 - The More Things Change, The More They Stay The Same (feat. Brian Kelly's Deep Southern Drawl)
The College Football landscape is changing. New teams are in the College Football Playoffs like Michigan, who won the Big Ten, and Cincinnati. Brain Kelly has evolved from Massachusetts man to Bayou boy.
But never fear. The Lions lost and the Bears got embarrassed by the Packers. It almost feels like as more things change, things still stay the same.

FN 115 - DOWN GOES BRUTUS!!!!!!!!
It has been a monumental week for college football. First and foremost, the Michigan Wolverines football team overcame the 10 year hump and beat Brutus the Buckeye and his buddies Thanksgiving Weekend on a picturesque, snowy day in Ann Arbor.
Meanwhile, Notre Dame is looking hauntingly back at Brian Kelly as he stabs them in the back, murmuring the words, "Et tu, Brute?" amidst the gargle of blood. Kelly abruptly leaves the Fighting Irish for dead and heads down to LSU where he intends to bring Marcus Freeman with him and take SEC away from Nick Saban's grimy grasp.
From elation to exasperation, here the range of emotions on this episode of Frustration Nation

Another week with all 4 major sports to react to, so as you can imagine there's plenty of frustration to go around. Furious George makes an unexpected pilgrimage to sports holy ground. Rumors are swirling that Matthew Nagy is a regular consumer of Bat Chili, and we break down the family recipe. The Man in the Michigan Hat is nervously looking ahead to a massive rivalry showdown.

FN 110 - "I EAUXN YOU." (Go Tygas).
Our Bears Packers review gets a flair of Ed Orgeron. Also, we call Melissa from the Chicago House. Just listen so it makes sense.

FN 109 - Kissing Gruden Goodbye
We continue to react to the unfolding college and NFL seasons, with big news in each. We contemplate why so many ranked teams are losing in the NCAA, and how Jon Gruden could be such a moron. The world may never know. Also Mad Lips, I mean Mad Libs.

FN 108 - Bears Fans, and Urban Meyer, Finally Get Excited
Despite an exciting Bears win, Matt Nagy still wants to start a bench sitter. Despite the most competitive game of the Jaguars' season, Urban Meyer still wants to rub up against a crotch-sitter. A beautiful parallel in the NFL. Sorry Shelley.

FN 107 - Fear Leads to Anger, Anger Leads to Hate, Hate Leads to Frustration...
Our most frustration-packed episode in a long time. The Lions and Bears both lose in historically bad ways, which means our listeners win. Enjoy a 2-hour rant with pauses in between for some more lighthearted segments.
