Episode 141 - The Berenstain Bears and Too Much Football? - a podcast by Real Talk, Homie

The USFL 2023 season is here alongside XFL 2023, but is that a good thing? With the USFL debuting to soft ratings alongside XFL week 9 is there TOO much spring football? We discuss. Dean Blandino, XFL VP of Officiating and Rules Innovation returns to the program to check in as we approach the end of the XFL season, playoffs, and their championship game. We welcome Ben Fischer of the Sports Business Journal as well as Andrew Bucholtz of Awful Announcing to do a deep-dive on the XFL and USFL TV ratings, plus Cole Cubelic of ESPN stops by to preview XFL Week 10 and Paul Reeths of OurSports Central talks USFL season 2 thus far. Finally, we are joined by Brandon Aubrey of the USFL Birmingham Stallions to talk about his return to the league on a very loaded episode!
