The show then shifts to Nailed It, where three college and two pro picks are on the board. Remember, listeners can still join in for a shot at winning a trip to Vegas during Masters weekend.

The hot takes fly next. Pat vents about golf courses that ban carts and relishes Green Bay’s stunning loss to the Bears.
