RFK Deal; #Commanders Draft Recap; NBA/NHL Playoffs; OMC: The Accountant

Oh many what a week in DC! The Commanders got a deal done with DC to redevelop RFK and the renders look amazing! The NFL draft came and went with so many compelling storylines and "villain" arcs being created, and locally the team did a mediocre/great job... depending on whom you ask! The NBA Draft lottery is a week away, the Nationals don't stink, and the CAPS are trying their best to not-screw-things-up! Plus the boys watched the Accountant for OMC! What a week, what a show! 

DC 3 in Action; Ovi Needs 3; March Sadness; Wizards Looking Spicy; OMC True Lies

Bit of a strange one this week with injuries and illness wrecking the cast and crew of DTC. May not be our best show ever, but the streak lives on! It doesn't happen often but all three DC pro teams might lose as of the taping, Ovi stuck on 892 but really coulda/shoula been 893 as the Caps fall flat over last few games, plus, March Mad/Sadness is almost over... can Cooper Flagg + AJ Johnson catapult the Wiz forward? Read that again... yup! They are THAT interesting and the Wiz front office KNOW what they are doing! For the weekly installment of the OMC the boys review 1994's True Lies and pay their respects to the great "Iceman" Val Kilmer... this is a 90min fatty! Enjoy! 

March Sadness; NFL Free Agency Continues; Wiz/Caps Updates; OMC Reviews The Usual Suspects

We are days away from the NCAA tournament and the endless discussion of brackets... yuck. Joe has officially rebranded March Madness into March Sadness because March is the first month of the year with no NFL action. Aaron Rodgers still undecided about where he will play next season holding the league hostage and more directly Russ Wilson. Locally the Wizards are "un-tanking" and the Capitals are ready ready ready for the post season... plus, the OMC reviews The Usual Suspects (1:03 start) with mixed feedback on the highly acclaimed film. 

#NFL Legal Tampering; 'skins SUPER Active; Ovi Needs Nine; OMC Count of Monte-Cristo

What is "legal tampering" exactly? ... how are all of these NFL deals being announced just minutes after the tampering period begins? Can anyone explain it? The #Commanders were super active landing a STUD offensive lineman via trade comfortably in his prime and DT "BigDaddy" Kinlaw. Did the #Rams get a little better or a lot better? #Cowboys are doing nothing so far, and the #Colts are spending a lot on defense? Switching to the ice, the #Capitals got a few wins over the past week AND the #Great8 closes to single digits in his quest for the record. Plus, the boys continue the (Offseason Movie Club; min 55:02) OMC discussing 2002's the Count of Monte Cristo... have you seen it?

Life After Football; #Lebron Ruined Sports; #NBA Dud Weekend; #NHL Storylines; Redhot #ALLCAPS

FP and Joe are back at it and so much has changed in such a short amount of time. The finale of the NFL season may not have been great but the countdown to the next season is already underway. Literally.... FP is counting... 209 days to go. Would you rather head to Brazil or Spain to watch the Commanders play next season? Can Jayden keep doing all of "this" as he begins season two? What happened to the NBA all star break? Lebron ruined the NBA with his superteam nonsense, Joe has explanations, and the #Caps are super hot heading into the final stretch of the regular season. Plus, FP is going to rewatch Entourage and Joe promises to start a specific AppleTV show soon.

#Eagles Win; #Chiefs Struggle; Offseason Thoughts w/Bill R; #NBA Interests

FP and Joe are slowly adjusting to offseason life as the NFL season comes to end. The Chiefs lost and looked bad bad bad while the Eagles deservingly (yuck) crushed and won. Bill Rohland joins the boys for 10-good-minutes revisiting the season finale and the #Commanders magical run. Plus, is the NBA interesting again? After a week of wild trades are we actually paying attention to the hometown #Wizards and the league overall? and... Eat My Cookie debuts next week... 

#Commanders Offseason Begins; #NBA Trade(s); #AllCaps Cruisin'

Well, we are just a week away from the #superbowl nobody cares about and the end of the #NFL season. The boys are ready to switch into NBA and NHL mode while Stevie and Mat are already onto baseball. LP is watching a lot of international soccer and 20 has thoughts about the Royal Rumble... literally the show that has something for everyone! Join us! 

#Commanders Win; #Jayden Rocks; #NFL #Playoff Picture; #Capitals on Fire; Ovi is Back!

Happy New Years from the entire rotating cast of Defeating the Curse. We love broadcasting and radio at large and we love that you love what we do week in and week out. The #Commanders are headed to the #NFL postseason and while the #NFC is still up for grabs DC as a city is PUMPED UP! The #Giants continue to confuse fans and the #Bengals are the #Rams of the AFC... NOBODY wants to face them. Ovi is back after 40 days recovery for a BROKEN leg and the Capitals are red-hot! And the "Would you rather" segment returns! Email, tweet, or message the show anytime @DTC on most platforms. Happy New Year and Hail to the Redskins! #RaiseHail

#Commanders Beat #Saints; #Lions Slip; #NFL MVP; #Capitals Remain Hot

The boys are over the win on Sunday against the #Saints and have already switched gears to the #Eagles. The Lions lost their grip on the one-seed with #Vikings and Eagles firmly in the mix. The NFL MVP race is looking like its either a QB, a QB, or an RB at this point... but defensively, has anyone had a better season than TJ Watt? The boys share come of their favorite Christmas traditions and catch-up on all their shows and movies too!

DC Winning; JD5 Tracking MVP; Alex Gets 861; #Wizards Update

What was the bigger event in DC this week... the election or the addition of a legit stud cornerback to the Commanders roster? The boys discuss the NFL at large and who should be the executive of the year? coach of the year? MVP? ... the time change is terrible but fall sports are not! Join us!

DC Loves #JD5; World Series Reaction; Wizards Outlook; Caps Goals

The boys are in the studio still on a high from the Commanders dramatic win on Sunday over the Bears. DC loves #Jayden !! The reaction videos are must-watch... from both fan bases. The Yanks have come alive and threaten to prolong the season meanwhile the Wiz and the Caps are both giving fans something to cheer for... Jets keep losing, and NFL trades keep happening too! Join the conversation #DTC

Offseason Champions; Ron TV; Wiz Snap 16 Game Skid, Tyson v Paul

Oh man... there is nothing like the offseason in Washington DC. Why does anyone cheer for the Commanders? Our former HC is now a talking head on ESPN and just in case you had interest in maybe the Capitals or Wizards both are not doing so well these days... Caps making trades while the Wiz lost 16 straight before an "upset" win vs the Hornets. Plus, why would you ever get in the ring with Mike Tyson? Mike might legit put a gap in Jake's chest if this fight ever happens!

Strange Week in the NFL; NBA Tournament Final; Is Anyone Worth $70m a Year?

An all around bizarre week in the NFL with upsets everywhere, odd scores, and plot twists in both the top 5 and bottom 5 teams... nobody is tanking, except maybe the _____ . The NBA in-season tournament has ended, with the Lakers beating the Pacers... will anyone care next year, or the year after? Could the Wiz/Caps make the move to Alexandria? Why not build a super sports plex in DC where RFK currently sits? Chase Young has done nothing, Montez has some thoughts on Ron, Aaron Rodgers is set to make history and is anyone worth $70million a season? 

A Look Around the NFL; Nationals Draft Position; Wiz Rebuild

Join the boys for a midweek treat taking a look around the NFL. There is no way this coaching staff in DC returns next year... right? Which teams are streaking as we near the playoffs + why all of a sudden the NBA in-season tournament is low-key awesome. And what happened with the Nationals on MLB Draft Lottery Day... and will the Wizards ever be good again? So much to chat about! Join us!

Dallas Ruins Thanksgiving; JDR Out; Panthers Making Moves; Wiz Struggling

The boys are back after the (best) holiday break to discuss the loss to the cowboys, the firing of JDR, the potential for new GMs and HCs to be considered and take a general look around the league as the best teams are miles better than the good teams and a few are back from the dead (Broncos?). Plus, how SI used AI to trick its readers.... and will the wiz rebuild faster than the commanders?

Falcons Beat Falcons; Top 5 Low 5; NHL Returns; MLB Playoffs Continue

The boys recap the full slate of NFL games including the Commanders win in ATL to improve to 3-3... reminder, they beat nobody as FP says. The NFL is basically a bunch of .500 teams, the CAPS are back on the ice, and Bryce homers on his birthday... do we cheer or never/ever cheer?

Super Week; SB Predictions; NBA Trades; Inflation?

 
The NBA is nuts. The NBA trade deadline was extra nuts. The Wizards didn't trade Brad. ALSO.... It's Super Week and the boys are ready to make their pics! Stevie and Razzle are on the RAMS and Joe is on the Bengals... but there is a lot of confusion about who might be MVP and over/under QB rushing yards as a prop bet too. The boys also debate if this is the beginning of the end for Dan in DC and break down hyper inflation and the housing market because why not... tune in! 

Dallas Takeover FedEx; WFT 6-7; Wiz Drop Another One; Hot Chocolate

Stevie and Joe fire up the mics for a rare mid-day show but there is just too much to discuss to wait any longer! Dallas took over FedEx and the brave WFT fans that paid to go to the game the first half was terrible, the second half was better, but the team just couldn't pull out a win in the end. WFT still control their playoff destiny but need a win against Philly to keep the train on its tracks... how can they do that without half their defensive starters?? + Wiz are sliding and Beal may be done + why is hot chocolate so good!?

WFT Win Recap; Malice at the Palace Part 2; Thanksgiving Traditions

 
Stevie is back (and pounding cookies) ready to talk #FootballTeam and the potential of meaningful games in December... will there be a playoff push? Joe says "yes" if they split (or win) the next two against the Seahawks then the Raiders... can the WFT reverse the primetime curse? The duo also get into Thanksgiving traditions and Lebron starting another malice at the palace nearly seven years to the day after the first. 

WFT @ Carolina; NFL Top5/Low 5; Wiz Update; Must See TV

The mics are hot as Joe and 20 preview WFT v Carolina... the Ron/Cam showdown + there is a strong disagreement on which teams belong atop the NFL rankings and just how low the Lions could go. The duo also discuss the red-hot Wizards and debate some of the best all-time "guy" TV shows from The League to Ballers and why is everyone obsessed with Curb? 

WFT Sinks Lower; NFL MidTerms; Wiz Start Hot; World Series Continues

Joe is riding solo and has thoughts on the WFT losing to the Broncos... everyone has to go... everyone! Almost halfway through the NFL season Joe has his top 10 teams to share + should Drew Brees return to the Saints? if not, should Philip Rivers? The World Series is heading to Game 6 (and Joe predicts game 7 too) plus if you live in Virginia, go VOTE on Tuesday! Let's Go Brandon! 
 

Where Do We (Re)Begin?

After a long winter (many years long) Joe and LP fire up the mics to discuss a plethora of topics ranging from the NFL vax policy to the USA winning the Gold Cup to the Olympics, Euros, the NBA shifting landscape with the Wizards involved in a blockbuster trade, and expectations for the Football Team... could they win the NFC East by more than 2.5 games? ...recorded live... welcome and enjoy!

Caps/Wiz Eliminated Round 1; WFT Best in the NFC?

The NBA is slowly dying. Super teams are annoying. Lebron James is out of the playoffs and changing his jersey again. The Wizards made the playoffs but really had absolutely no chance. The Caps are eliminated in the first round once again. WFT is looking more and more like a really, really REALLY strong contender in the NFC. Finally the USMNT had one of the best soccer games of the decade against El Tri. 

NBA Season Suspended; Corona Virus Thoughts; Bernie Bro's

Stevie and Joe were literally caught speechless when the #NBA announced the season had been suspended, so they took 10 mins, gathered their thoughts and then turned on the mics! The NBA season may resume with playoffs only based on current seeding, or may have play-in games, who knows, right now however, there will be no more games. European soccer is already halting games as well, travel to Europe is suspended for 30 days, and yes, #CoronaVirus #COVID19 is to blame and not going anywhere anytime soon. Somehow one thing leads to another and the boys end up discussing the democratic primaries, the lack of presidential leadership, the stock market tanking, and what may come next here in DC. This is a unique show from two people doing their best to work through all the information and share their personal thoughts without fanning the flames of fear. We will be ok America. Stay Strong. (and wash your hands!)

World Cup Cash; Clippers and Rockets Improve; NBA Dynamic Duos

Joe is solo on this episode of DTC catching up on the past few weeks across all sports and headlines. The womens world cup ends, Kawhi is an odd guy but improved the Clippers while hurting the Lakers, Westbrook is headed to Houston ... and just like that the NBA is full of dynamic duos! The Nats are surging in the standings, Trump is surging in his approval ratings, and DC is literally melting under the 100+ degree heat! Tune in and get caught up with Joe!
