The iLLogical gang returns from Thanksgiving with full bellies and even fuller opinions:

The guys recap their holiday with loved ones (1:32), how important the macaroni and cheese is to the dinner table (7:16), and San Jose catching momentum with a major concert announcement (13:20).

Then it’s time to talk sports (17:55), starting with the Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday football games (17:55) as they break down the Packers’ victory over the Lions (18:20), debate whether the Cowboys are for real or if the Chiefs are in trouble (21:53), how the 'Madden Cast' was the only memorable aspect of Bengals vs. Ravens (25:17), ask if the Bears are true contenders after beating the Eagles (26:40), examine the playoff picture in the AFC/NFC race with one month left in the season (29:18), before closing out with basketball by again, thanking the Dallas Mavericks community on behalf of Lakers fans (39:40).

From there, the conversation shifts to culture, with The Bigger Picture podcast rebranding (45:24), the need for more Hip-Hop discourse platforms (51:33), why Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar arguments are exhausted (53:24), and how we can all benefit from more balance and less bias, the Valley Fair Mall shooting (59:22) in San Jose, The Game claiming how influential in Kendrick Lamar's career he was (1:02:26) and more.

It’s all here: spicy takes, real-life reflections, and enough side-eye to go with your secret stashes of mac and cheese. This is your post-holiday rewind, only on The iLLogical Sense Podcast.

Busby and Marteen hold it down this week as they dive into a mix of personal reflections, musical milestones, and football chaos.

The show kicks off with a recap of how the week went before the crew celebrates the 1-year anniversary of GNX (00:03:35). They look back on the day it dropped, break down the project with a full track-by-track review, and discuss the aftermath that followed its release.

Next, they honor another major milestone—the 15-year anniversary of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (00:26:45). Marteen opens up about his issues with the album while Busby gives his own perspective on the modern classic.

From there, it’s all football. The guys assess the 49ers’ season so far (00:35:34), noting the offense heating back up while the defense struggles to keep pace. They move into NFL talk from around the league (00:37:24) before breaking down the developing Brandon Aiyuk situation (00:42:20).

As the final stretch of the year approaches, the iLLogical gang returns in time to remind everybody that while the timeline doesn't wait, it also never forgets. But first, J.C. recaps how his planned extended break went from relaxed reset to bed-ridden survival (1:22), Busby slides in celebrating another trip around the sun (12:24), and Martin clocks in from the work trenches (14:19).

From there, the crew dives into the Grammy's Best Rap Album nominations (14:50), breaking down the narratives, upsets, and why the whole “Kendrick fatigue” thing doesn’t hold water (18:56). The conversation turns up even more when the New Rory & Mal crew becomes a case study in why your words online always come with consequences, especially when you run from accountability (35:52).

Later topics include OutKast getting their overdue flowers with a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction (52:24), the Michael Jackson biopic setting new trailer records while shaking up timelines (54:13), Westside Gunn and WWE beefing out of nowhere (55:53), the Cash Money VERZUZ No Limit showdown bringing that Y2K-level nostalgia (59:57), honoring the life and impact of Coach John Beam after his tragic passing (1:06:07), and more.

Another wired, witty, and wildly unpredictable ride in this timeline-bendin’, discourse-spinnin’, tweet-scorchin’ edition of The iLLogical Sense Podcast.
