== Segments ==
; Opening : Cardinals game preview
; Guest Interview : Blake Allen Murphy from Revenge of the Birds podcast discusses Cardinals strengths and weaknesses
; Mailbag : Extensive listener questions covering Cardinals matchup, personnel decisions, and various topics

== Mailbag Questions ==
* Rahul - Arizona looked scary good against the Titans, a team that has a similar offensive identity to our own. What exactly is the Cardinals' weakness and how can we exploit it?
* Mathus - Considering Bradburry's bad playing, is there a chance that Mason Cole starts as the center for the Vikings?
* Tep - You talked a lot over the offseason about Kirks trade value being about a 1st round pick. Would that still be true if the vikings lose enough games to result in Zim/Rick being gone? If so, who would take the Vikings up on that? Colts? Texans? Giants? LIONS? Packers after Rodgers is gone?
* Beef Brewski - How many sacks are we going to see on Kirk?
* Mark Hogan - Draft Kings is setting DeAndre Hopkins at 86.5 yards, third highest amongst pass catchers this weekend. How far below that number does it need to be for Patrick Peterson to call it a successful trip back to Arizona?
* Kevin O'Quigly - For arguments sake, let's assume Bradbury is not the answer at Center. Can Bradbury play tight end? His combine numbers for speed were within 1-3 standard deviations of the mean for tight ends, and his strengths in downfield blocking could be an asset.
* Kenneth Allen - How many weeks before the collective NFL media shows up to the new NFL LA HQ with pitchforks and guillotines to demand All-22? Taking into account their usual level of play, which player is going to disappoint most in this game? My bet is O'Neill going against Watt, despite his age.
* Nick Howard - What kind of new and unique way do the Vikings lose in this week? We know the nfl is a copy cat league. Do the Vikings copy the niners and bears and create a package of plays to get Mond some snaps?
* Kyle Slaybee - Which of the current division leaders (after tie breakers) will finish the season as the division winner: Dolphins; Raiders; Steelers; Texans / Eagles; Rams; Vikings; Saints
* Bishop Sycamore Alumnist - As someone out of market, what is the proper useage of my Sunday Ticket? Keeping up to date on our MN Vikings or hate watching my savior and keeper of my sanity Rodrigo Blankenship?
* Damian Barrett - It was the All-Ireland Final last weekend (Irish Football's Superbowl - for James) and Mayo lost their 10th final since a curse was put on them in 1951. How does this curse compare to the one the Vikings seem to be under?
* Ian Pauli - For the tried and true cooking corner: my wife and I recently moved, "forcing" me to buy a new grill. I found a great deal on a 36" flat top blackstone (still have a weber kettle for real grilling). Outside of easy things like breakfast and smashburgers, what do you recommend?
* Nolan Kehler - Question for Arif & James' Dating Corner: I have my first-ever double date tonight, and I was wondering what tips you - the Don Quichottes of the Viking Twittersphere - would have for such an occasion? Should I, for instance, bring two wine towels?
* Andrew Elis - For Arif's beekeeping corner. What advice would you give to anybody competing in this UK TV show "Show me the Honey" and why are you not a judge?

== Guests ==
