The History of the Sexiest Man Alive | with Christopher "Mad Dog" Russo

Hello! It's the podcast that admits it had a moment during 1988's "Working Girl". Today, Katie and the Casualties celebrate the return of Hilary Duff to the music industry and the lasting impact of "Cadet Kelly", touch on the Jets' firesale at the NFL trade deadline and Steve Ballmer's latest lawsuit, and debate whether Commanders coach Dan Quinn should be getting blamed for Jayden Daniels' injury. Then, sports radio icon Christopher "Mad Dog" Russo joins the show [26:00] to discuss the beginning of his sports fandom, his love of Bruce Springsteen and weed gummies, Jeremy Allen White and the Springsteen biopic as they compare to Chalamet playing Dylan, the right time to get married as a sports fan and how Chris would plan Katie's wedding, his career, his success, and how he maintains his passion for sports after forty years of broadcasting, the World Series, the Dodger dynasty, and why we shouldn't be concerned with how much they're paying their players, who he considers the actual contenders in the NFL this season, learning about Cardi B in real time, and an epic breakdown of the greatest controversies in the history of People Magazine's Sexiest Man Alive. Was Harry Hamlin sexier than Don Johnson in 1987? Was Sean Connery too old to be sexy in 1989? Are we sleeping on how sexy Nick Nolte was in 1992? And can any of them compare to the great Robert Mitchum or Sidney Poitier? PLUS, Mad Dog learns about Adam Levine's absurd texting history for the first time, as you buy this episode a steak dinner and whisper sweet nothings into it. And finally, Katie and the team wrap with a recap of Isabella's fantasy squad and a look ahead at the weekend's NFL action. Casuals merch!
