This week on Night School, Josh Potter and Kristin Chirico join the pod, and what starts as a conversation about baseball as a deeply spiritual, failure-based art form quickly turns into a full generational autopsy. We unpack why hitting a baseball is the hardest thing in sports, how Dodgers fandom regulates the nervous system, and how 9/11 accidentally became core personality lore for an entire age group — including a fifth birthday spent getting scolded for “reporting the news” to other preschoolers. From there, the episode spirals through post-9/11 cringe culture, Linkin Park as a national trauma soundtrack, and why everyone alive at the time seems permanently cooked in a very specific way. We then get into sports nepo babies, dynastic team ownership, and the increasingly bizarre public unraveling of Bill Belichick. The back half devolves into elite sports gossip, quarterback vibes, Taylor Swift discourse, and a deeply unserious but highly opinionated round of F, Marry, Punt — proving once again that sports are astrology for men, trauma is the great equalizer, and no one should ever pretend to be normal about any of this.
