MoodSwings: with Liv Moods

Liv Moods opens the show with a quick Valentine’s Day reminder before diving into a fiery NFL take: why are the Chargers the betting favorites in the AFC West after proving nothing when it matters? She breaks down Denver’s trajectory compared to Kansas City and Los Angeles, and calls out what she sees as media bias. Liv also addresses the serious first-degree felony rape charge filed against BYU wide receiver Parker Kingston, emphasizing the gravity of the situation and what it means moving forward.On the NBA side, Liv evaluates potential buyout candidates and makes the case for Russell Westbrook landing with either the Denver Nuggets or Houston Rockets. She explains why Denver desperately needs a reliable backup point guard behind Jamal Murray and why Russ deserves to finish his career on a contender.Then, Liv shifts into a deeper conversation about the Nuggets’ current state. Despite sitting third in the Western Conference, injuries to Aaron Gordon and Peyton Watson, inconsistency from key contributors, and a noticeable dip in Nikola Jokic’s energy and execution raise real concerns. Are physical injuries starting to create mental ones? Is Denver in an identity crisis? Liv lays out why this stretch heading into and coming out of the All-Star break could define the season.00:00 – Valentine’s Day reminder + Chargers favored in AFC West?05:45 – Broncos vs Chargers: Why the narrative makes no sense11:40 – Parker Kingston felony charge reaction20:15 – NBA buyout market: Russell Westbrook’s future27:50 – Why Westbrook to Denver makes basketball sense33:40 – Houston as a landing spot for Russ40:10 – Western Conference injury landscape45:35 – Nuggets concerns: Aaron Gordon & Peyton Watson injuries52:20 – Jokic energy shift, turnovers & missed free throws59:10 – Identity crisis in Denver?1:04:30 – What the All-Star break needs to fixPresented by Landmark Lincoln. 📍 The debate: does pineapple deserve to be a pizza topping?

Welcome back to MoodSwings presented by Landmark Lincoln…your new favorite sports therapy show.Liv breaks down the Denver Nuggets’ loss to the OKC Thunder from inside Ball Arena, with Nikola Jokic returning from injury and the Nuggets still shorthanded. From rotating starting lineups and postseason chemistry concerns to perimeter defense issues, officiating frustrations, and the growing league-wide foul-baiting epidemic, nothing is off limits.This episode dives into:Jokic’s return and what it means moving forwardLife without Aaron Gordon (and why resting him may be the right move)The OKC discourse and why they don’t need a “victim narrative”SGA’s greatness vs. the foul-baiting problem across the NBATrade deadline pressure, the luxury tax, and why Peyton Watson is untouchableGiannis trade rumors and front office realitiesJamal Murray finally earning his All-Star nodWhy All-Star snubs are inevitable (and how the system should change)All that, plus what Nuggets fans should take away from this loss as the postseason picture starts to take shape.More NBA and Nuggets coverage coming Friday.Much love — Go Nuggets 💙💛#MoodSwings #DenverNuggets #NBA #NikolaJokic #JamalMurray #OKCThunder #NBATradeDeadline #AllStarGame #PeytonWatson #AaronGordon #SGA #BasketballTalk

Nikola Jokic is officially back, and his return couldn’t come at a better time for a Nuggets team that’s managed to stay afloat despite relentless injuries. Liv explains why Jokic’s early comeback matters not just for wins, but for MVP eligibility and Denver’s ceiling moving forward, while also sounding the alarm on Aaron Gordon’s latest setback and the ripple effects across the rotation. Peyton Watson’s emergence sparks a passionate case for why he must remain untouchable, regardless of trade chatter or salary complications, and why minutes — not starting labels — ultimately matter most.On the Broncos front, Liv addresses the noise surrounding Sean Payton and Bo Nix, clarifying why recent comments created confusion and why alignment between quarterback and head coach is essential. With Russell Wilson’s contract finally off the books, the Broncos enter an offseason full of opportunity — but only if they aggressively pursue offensive playmakers and maximize the talent already on the roster. From cap space optimism to hard conversations about coaching structure and play-calling, this episode balances excitement with accountability as Denver looks ahead.

Liv Moods reacts to the Denver Broncos’ AFC Championship loss with a candid assessment of what went wrong and why weather, injuries, and circumstance can’t be used as cover. She explains how season-long offensive vulnerabilities — including play-calling, lack of consistent playmakers, and stalled momentum — finally caught up to the team when it mattered most. Liv dives into Sean Payton’s decision-making, the choice not to take points with a backup quarterback, and why the offense failed to complement a championship-caliber defense. While firmly rejecting excuses, she also makes the case for optimism, detailing why this team learned valuable lessons and is positioned to come back stronger next season.

Welcome to MoodSwings presented by Landmark Lincoln…your new favorite sports therapy show.On today’s episode, we hand out our NFL awards ballots and dig into one of the messiest storylines of the season. MVP, Coach of the Year, Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year, and Comeback Player of the Year — who actually deserves the hardware and why.Then we get into it: did the Broncos break the Bills? If a “bad call” truly ended Buffalo’s season, why does Sean McDermott take the fall? From ownership comments to roster accountability, this feels like a deeper dysfunction problem — and it raises the real question: is Josh Allen’s Super Bowl window in Buffalo already closed? Two things can be true: Josh Allen is a great quarterback, and he hasn’t won when it matters most. Being likable shouldn’t exempt anyone from standards, criticism, or pressure.We wrap with Broncos vs. Patriots predictions and keys to a Denver win. Getting JK Dobbins back matters more than people realize. Protect the football, let the defense dictate the game, and don’t ask Jarrett Stidham to be a hero. Mile High is unforgiving, the pressure is on New England, and Denver’s defense has all the momentum.Plus: can we finally celebrate the interception? Ja’Quan McMillian deserves his flowers. The season-long storyline remains the same — doubt Denver, and Denver responds. Ugly wins, grit, and team football got them here, and nothing changes now. Just another game.  

Liv Moods opens another Victory Monday by unpacking the Broncos’ playoff win over the Bills and the national reaction that followed. She pushes back on narratives surrounding Josh Allen, highlights Bo Nix’s historic start to his career before his injury, and calls out what she sees as a lack of accountability within Bills Mafia. Liv also zooms out to examine how the NFL playoff picture is changing, why new quarterbacks are taking over the spotlight, and what coaching changes mean for the league moving forward. As the Broncos prepare for the AFC Championship, she makes the case that Jarrett Stidham may give Denver a real advantage, emphasizing preparation, coaching confidence, and the power of a defense that’s carried the team all season. The episode wraps with thoughts on the NFC Championship and why the remaining teams are exactly where they belong.

Welcome back to MoodSwings presented by Landmark Lincoln, your new favorite sports therapy show. This episode is all about the Denver Broncos as they prepare for a massive Divisional Round matchup at home against the Buffalo Bills. With the Broncos earning the #1 seed in the AFC, we talk through the emotions, expectations, and reality of an elimination game—and why this moment feels different. From the Josh Allen “legacy game” narrative to the national disrespect surrounding Denver, this episode breaks down why the Broncos are more complete than they’re being given credit for. We dive into Bo Nix’s growth, Sean Payton’s playoff pedigree, Denver’s dominant defense (68 sacks), home-field advantage at Mile High, and why this matchup is as much about revenge as it is about respect. Key topics include:• Broncos vs Bills Divisional Round preview• Josh Allen legacy pressure vs Denver’s team identity• Why injuries are no longer an excuse in the NFL• Bo Nix in clutch moments• Sean Payton off a postseason bye• Why the Broncos are built to win this game• Broncos Moneyline and why the disrespect is fuel No sugarcoating. No participation trophies. Just playoff football, pressure, and belief.

In this episode of MoodSwings with Liv Moods, Liv opens with breaking news surrounding Mike Tomlin stepping down in Pittsburgh and explains why she views it as a power move rather than a failure, even floating the idea of what a pairing with Lamar Jackson could look like. She then highlights the San Francisco 49ers’ ability to overcome injuries, arguing that coaching, culture, and accountability matter more than ever in today’s NFL. Liv also defends journalist Lynn Jones after her compassionate exchange with Jaguars coach Liam Cohen went viral, calling out the industry for mistaking humanity for unprofessionalism. The show shifts to the Denver Broncos’ upcoming playoff matchup against Buffalo, where Liv lays out a clear game plan centered on stopping James Cook, trusting Denver’s defense, and finally committing to the run game under Sean Payton. She closes with her “Tough Conversation Time” segment, questioning the double standard surrounding Justin Herbert, evaluating AJ Brown’s public frustrations and costly mistakes, and making the case that it may finally be time for Aaron Rodgers to step away before his legacy is further diminished.

Welcome to MoodSwings, your new favorite sports therapy show. No Jokic? No problem. For the first time in years, the Nuggets’ depth is real—and it might be the best thing to happen to this team. Jamal Murray has been elite, proving this could be both an All-Star season for him and a championship year for Denver. Jokic plus Jamal plus depth is a scary formula. Christian Braun earned his contract, but Peyton Watson is becoming impossible to ignore. His recent surge is raising his value by the game, and Denver cannot afford to let him walk. We also hit on NFL coaching chaos, why playoff teams always get poached, and why the Broncos need full focus with the #1 seed and a Super Bowl run ahead. Shoutout to San Antonio for exposing OKC, and to Chris Finch for saying what fans have been thinking about the Thunder whistle. NFL hot takes: the Broncos have the perfect Super Bowl recipe—home-field advantage, elite defense, and history lining up once again. The AFC runs through Denver. #MoodSwings #DenverNuggets #JamalMurray #NikolaJokic #PeytonWatson #NBA #NuggetsNation #DenverBroncos #BroncosCountry #NFLTalk #DefenseWinsChampionships #SportsTherapy #HotTakes

Welcome to ‘Mood Swings’ presented by Landmark Lincoln…your new favorite sports therapy show. The Ravens’ loss is NOT on Lamar. If a playoff game comes down to a field goal, that’s a team failure — not a QB one. Tyler Loop likely won’t be kicking in Baltimore next year, but the discourse better not touch Lamar. Three straight years of postseason heartbreak, none of them on him. He gave the Ravens a real shot with 3 TDs fresh off injury…with no run game, pressure collapses, and questionable coaching. Lamar can only do so much. Meanwhile, it’s a cold world in the NFL. The Raiders, Cardinals and Browns wasted no time firing their coaches. Vegas is paying $50M to coaches NOT on their staff next season. Cardinals still haven’t had a HC last more than six years in over a century. And as the Broncos gear up for the playoffs…is Sean Payton truly the mastermind? Plus: What’s the Super Bowl script? And Liv's bold playoff predictions. #MoodSwings #NFL #Ravens #LamarJackson #BroncosCountry #Raiders #Cardinals #Browns #NFLPlayoffs #NFLTalk #SportsShow #SportsTherapy #BoldPredictions

Welcome to Mood Swings presented by Landmark Lincoln…your new favorite sports therapy show. Jokic might lose the MVP despite a historic season, with his knee injury and the 65-game rule putting him in jeopardy. He’s raised the MVP standard so high that anyone else winning feels like a participation trophy. The Broncos are one win from the No. 1 seed. Beat the Chargers, get the bye and home-field. They’ve beaten Houston, the Steelers are beatable, and Broncos haters stay loud with selective memory and selective strength-of-schedule outrage. LSU owes Lane Kiffin $500K because Ole Miss won without him—one of the wildest contract incentives ever. Stefon Diggs is facing felony strangulation and assault charges after allegations from his former chef. He denies it, and until evidence appears, it’s a “he said, she said”…and the NFL has never been great at taking action in cases like this. #MoodSwings #DenverBroncos #NikolaJokic #NBA #NFL #BroncosCountry #NuggetsNation #StefonDiggs #AFCPlayoffs #SportsTalk #LandmarkLincoln #SportsNews #MVPRace

Liv Moods opens the show with a passionate breakdown of Nikola Jokic’s all-time greatness, explaining why ring culture has distorted how fans evaluate generational players and why Jokic is already one of the best to ever play the game. From there, Liv turns her attention to the Denver Broncos, calling out critics who continue to move the goalposts on Bo Nix despite Denver sitting atop the AFC. She explains why quarterback criticism has become selective, compares Nix to Justin Herbert, and outlines why Denver’s ability to win ugly games is actually a strength heading into the postseason. The episode also covers Sean Payton’s strategic patience, why the Broncos may still have another gear, the Raiders’ decision to place Maxx Crosby on IR, and what it says about organizational culture. Liv then shares betting futures heartbreaks, gives her NFL playoff potential rankings, and wraps with a lively “Driven Opinions” segment featuring NBA superlatives like best dressed, best locker-room vibes, most inspirational player, rookie of the year, and most improved player.

Liv Moods reacts to the Broncos’ first loss since September, arguing that not all losses are bad losses and that this one may ultimately strengthen Denver heading into the postseason. She addresses critics and “I told you so” reactions, emphasizes the importance of discipline over officiating complaints, and highlights how much the defense missed Brandon Jones. Liv also discusses Bo Nix’s growth and accountability after a costly hospital ball, provides injury updates on Pat Bryant and Dre Greenlaw, and looks ahead to the Broncos’ remaining schedule and playoff positioning. The episode wraps with a broader look at the AFC and NFC playoff races, why there is no clear Super Bowl favorite, and why Denver remains in a strong position despite the setback.

Welcome to Mood Swings presented by Landmark Lincoln — your new favorite sports therapy show. A (late) Victory Monday rolls in with huge Broncos implications. We break down the constant goal-post shifting this season and the full playoff-clinching scenarios: the path to the No. 1 seed, the division, and what it’ll take over the final three games vs. the Chiefs, Chargers, and Jags. Plus: Nikola Jokic adds another historic milestone, passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the all-time assists leader among centers.

On today’s episode of MoodSwings, Liv dives into the clearest emerging theme of the 2025 NFL season: defense is driving the league, shaping the playoff picture, and positioning surprise contenders like the Broncos, Patriots, Seahawks, and Texans at the top. She breaks down Denver’s ten-game win streak, the collapse of traditional powers expected to dominate preseason strength-of-schedule conversations, and why the Chiefs, Ravens, Bengals, and Cowboys are struggling to keep pace. Liv highlights the Broncos’ evolving identity on offense, including how Marvin Mims and RJ Harvey have become postseason X-factors, and whether Sean Payton is strategically holding back parts of his playbook until January. She also reacts to the chaotic NFC race, shifting seed lines, and the unique ways defenses are dictating results across the league. Later, Liv turns her attention to the Nuggets’ franchise-best 17–6 start despite missing Aaron Gordon and Christian Braun, and explains why a healthy Nuggets roster is the one team built to beat OKC. She wraps with listener Q&A covering her favorite Broncos game, changes she’d make to the offense, Rocky vs. Miles vs. Dinger, and her ideal parlay for Eagles–Chargers. Presented by Landmark Lincoln.

In this episode of Moodswings, Liv Moods opens with a deep dive into the ongoing debate around Nikola Jokić and whether he should be considered the face of the NBA. While she argues that Jokić is statistically unmatched in every major category since the start of the decade, she breaks down why the league and its media machine will never position him as the face — and why he genuinely doesn’t care either. Liv also reacts to Jamal Murray’s 50-point performance and pushes back on the idea that Jokić has “always” had help, explaining why this team looks different than years past thanks to the evolution of Aaron Gordon, the emergence of a real backup center, and a fully healthy, locked-in Murray. The show shifts to the Clippers’ late-night decision to send Chris Paul home, prompting a full-scale Liv Moods rant on incompetence, accountability, and why the organization’s reputation is “shot to hell.” She then breaks down the MPJ–Cam Johnson trade, explaining why Denver won the deal even with MPJ thriving in Brooklyn. Liv also dives into the viral situation surrounding Dylan Gabriel’s fiancée and the Browns, emphasizing how online comments can unintentionally expose locker-room conversations. In Driven Opinions, she answers fan questions on Marvin Mims’ under-usage, Sean Payton’s play-calling, her favorite cheat meals and TV shows, and the patience required with David Adelman as the Nuggets deal with injuries. The episode wraps with an NFL weekend preview featuring high-stakes matchups with playoff implications, including Ravens–Steelers, Colts–Jags, Bears–Packers, and Texans–Chiefs. Presented by Landmark Lincoln - join them as they Drive for a Cause this holiday season.Landmark Lincoln is donating $250 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital for every vehicle sold through December.Make a difference while driving away in something you love.

Liv Moods dives into another Victory Monday and shuts down the “fraudulent Broncos” talk after Denver’s ninth straight win. She breaks down the chaotic AFC and NFC playoff pictures, reacts to Lane Kiffin’s controversial departure, and unpacks the Shelby Harris–Jauan Jennings drama. Liv also calls out Jerry Jeudy’s sideline behavior toward Shedeur Sanders and explains her updated Super Bowl contenders in what she calls the ugliest, most wide-open NFL season in years.

This episode of MoodSwings opens with Liv reacting to Ja’Marr Chase’s apology that manages to address everyone except the one person he actually spit on — Jalen Ramsey. She digs into Dak Prescott’s outstanding season compared to Jalen Hurts, the Cowboys’ wasted potential, and why Denver’s elite defense gives the Broncos a real shot at the Super Bowl. Liv also gives Shedeur Sanders his due after becoming the first Browns QB since 1999 to win in his debut. The conversation shifts to the chaos of the NFC, the Rams’ resurgence, and whether the Eagles’ offense has completely stalled out.She then brings on Nuggets beat reporter Gianna Girardi to discuss how Denver navigates injuries to Aaron Gordon and Christian Braun, and why the Nuggets’ depth makes this season different from years past. They break down Nikola Jokić’s postgame critique after the Kings loss and explain why his leadership style is essential for Denver’s ceiling. The two zoom out to evaluate the entire Western Conference — from OKC’s dominance to LeBron’s aging body and what that means for the Lakers’ ceiling.Finally, Liv addresses the viral moment between Ja Morant and Klay Thompson, calling out the lack of accountability and maturity surrounding Ja’s recent behavior. The episode ends with a positive twist: Liv shares her genuine, heartfelt interaction with Russell Westbrook after the Clippers’ win in Denver and why his fourth-quarter takeover was a reminder of who he’s always been as a competitor.
