The Fanatic Life Podcast

John talks about the Up and Vanished podcast and a killer who finds out the authorities have the body while he is being interviewed. The guys also discuss Boba Fett, the upcoming Lord of the Rings series and more. John runs down the rabbit hole of true crime podcasts starting with Up and Vanished. He also talks about how admitted murderer Stephen McDaniel finds out in an on-camera interview with a news station that authorities had found the victim's body. At that point, his brain seems to shut down. His interrogation with authorities gets even stranger. He goes from talkative to minimal words and movement. The guys also talk about the new Boba Fett series, the upcoming Lord of the Rings from Amazon, the Willow series, and Jamie talks shortcuts in Mario Kart.

John discusses the Cincinnati Bearcats merits in the college football playoff, and how those giving rankings should make some changes. No, the Cincinnati Bearcats did not belong on the field with Alabama. What we saw on Friday afternoon was a display of how teams with weak schedules get exposed when playing difficult competition. The Bearcats' signature win was against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish who had no signature win themselves, and they were beaten by both "ranked" teams they played (Cincinnati & Oklahoma State). John discusses potential changes to the College Football top 25 and how the Georgia Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson Tide proved a point against the Michigan Wolverines and Cincinnati Bearcats.
