If you find Vikings and/or Packers fans gloating to be annoying, you are not going to enjoy this episode one bit. The first twenty minutes is a Beefcake and Professor Pigskin celebration with Rhob desperately attempting to poke holes in the two most over-inflated egos in the NFC North. Afterwards, smugness turns to aggression as we get under the booth to decide Clean Hit vs Roughing the Passer, we pass out some fantastic life advice in our newest segment, and we end the episode with Beefcakes favorite Christmas song.

On one hand this episode has a lot of hate. Hatred for referees. Hatred for NFC North Rivals. Hatred for Fake News. Hatred for real news. Lots of hate. And yet, where there is hate, there is also love. Fair-Weather Fan Boy is on the show who is well known for loving EVERY team, but this time he is joined by his most recent romantic interest, the Second-Hand Fan Girl! We play the NFC North Newlyweds game to find out who has the stronger love: this newly formed couple or long term lovers, Professor and Beefcake! Come with a heart full of love or a soul full of hate, either way Kings of the North has got what you need!

Last week, at The Moose (the greatest bar on the planet) the gang ran into a Austrian man travelling America in search of football knowledge by the name of Heimlich. We thought, what better way to give him a lesson in football than to have him on the #1 NFC North Podcast?! We start by going through this weeks games, affording him the opportunity to learn about stats and conspiracy theories from Professor and grit and pad level from Beefcake. We then introduce to the world of http://twitter.com and all the people who are mad online there. Finally, he quizzes us on the differences between football, futbal, and rugby! You will NOT want to miss our most educational, and immature, podcast to date!

From the Penthouse to the Outhouse. Rhob, Professor, and Beefcake are all licking their wounds after soul sucking defeats. Though their dejected spirits threaten to send the podcast, special guest Square Toe, the KOTN Kicking Correspondent, E-Sports specialist, and Hot Sauce Connoisseur joins the podcast to hook it back through the uprights. We question him on life as a kicker, and end the show by putting ourselves through KOTNs most painful segment...THE HOT SEAT!

This week finds a jubilant Rhob, Beefcake and Professor celebrating a win for all three of their teams. In preparation for the Vikings playing his hated Bears this week, Beefcake tries to prove to professor that he has what it takes to become a Vikings fan and earn the right to wear a purple Brett Favre jersey. Will the Beefcake prove that he's comfortable in Wranglers by passing the exam, or will his answers resemble a Blair Walsh field goal?

The gang wraps up the episode by returning to the comfortable embrace of hatred as they discuss their most hated athletes of all time. How many kickers will Professor name? You gotta tune in to find out!

Da Polish Sausage joined us in studio this week for a NFC North round table discussion after his Bears lost to the Packers. Things started civilly enough as we chatted around the Water Cooler, but as the episode continued into Playing Doctor we found that no pill could could cure Da Polish's ill feelings. Fed up with Beefcake trying to convince him that the AR in AR-15 stands for Aaron Rodgers, Da Polish drew arms and shot the studio up. Fortunately, no one was hurt due to each and every bullet double doinking off of Beefcakes microphone stand, but the remaining two segments were unable to be recorded. Da Polish is currently cooling off with a 40 of malt liquor, and we will be back in studio, Sausage free, for the foreseeable future. Needless to say, Professor thinks the Vikings will beat Greenbay, Beefcake thinks the opposite, and Rhob is rooting hard for the Lions to do the impossible; tie every game on the way to a 0-0-16 season.

Two Doinks?! Oh yeah!! After a rough regular season for Rhob, Professor, and the Beefcake it's all smiles in studio...except for Da Polish Sausage, who managed to drunkenly stumble his way to the studio in order to take the verbal abuse that he's due. After pouring salt in his wounds for a while we go to Four Down Territory to reflect on our favorite moments from this football and podcasting season.
