Mitch Unfiltered
RUNDOWN Did you see Anthony Joshua knocking out Jake Paul in a Netflix spectacle that somehow guaranteed both fighters $92 million? While relieved to see Paul finally get hit for real, Mitch is stunned that global interest was strong enough to justify such an enormous payout for an eight-round exhibition. The segment becomes a blunt look at influencer economics, Netflix’s business model, and why modern fame—not boxing legitimacy—now drives sports entertainment. Hotshot relives an on-air argument about whether Andy Gibb was a Bee Gee, while Mitch tells the story of getting yanked...

RUNDOWN Mitch opens Episode 362 with Danny O’Neil subbing in for an injured Hotshot Scott, then immediately pivots into Seahawks stress-testing: “a win is a win” vs. real offensive problems. Mitch and Danny joke about a bizarre LA Bowl unsportsmanlike call, then pivot to the Michigan vacancy and what it could mean for Jed Fisch (with Mitch arguing DeBoer’s statement reads like a true “not leaving” while Fisch’s sounds like a dodge). The segment then becomes a Seahawks therapy session: Mitch hates how they “punted the first half away,” can’t believe they needed six...

RUNDOWN Mitch opens Episode 361 barely able to speak. Area code 361, is a surprisingly stacked Corpus Christi résumé — from Farrah Fawcett’s iconic poster-era fame to Eva Longoria, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Lynyrd Skynyrd’s longtime keyboardist Billy Powell. The college football playoff drama continues, Notre Dame spent weeks ahead of Miami in the rankings only to get leapfrogged on a Saturday when neither team played — and then “boycott” bowl season in peak Irish fashion. From there they pivot to the Seahawks’ 26–6 win in Atlanta, breaking down Sam Darnold’s...

RUNDOWN Time for a post-Thanksgiving catch-up — from Hotshot’s massive Bonnie Lake feast (and industrial-sized leftovers) to Mitch explaining why he avoids other people’s stuffing, small talk, and social gatherings altogether. The guys 'roll' into a playful celebration of area code 360, spotlighting surprising celebrity ties: Sam Elliott’s Clark College days, Hilary Swank’s Bellingham childhood, The Rock’s Vancouver roots, and of course Kurt Cobain — whose Aberdeen home, schools, and legacy still anchor the region. Mitch and Hotshot mourn Washington’s deflating rivalry...

RUNDOWN We're celebrating the start of Year 8 of Mitch Unfiltered! Mitch checks in from Las Vegas—oddly with zero urge to gamble—while Hotshot breaks down his old roulette system and the painful bad beat that once drove him out of Vegas for years. Mitch and Hotshot geek out over the new Eddie Murphy documentary, then Mitch tells his favorite 10-seconds-of-fame story — yelling a deep-cut sketch line to Murphy at a 1985 stand-up show and getting singled out from the stage. They pivot to the Seahawks’ 30–24 “no-win” win in Nashville, weighing how worried to be about letting a...

RUNDOWN We're in a foul mood after the Seahawks’ ugly loss to the Rams, unpacking Sam Darnold’s four-interception stinker, the looming backlash from “I told you so” Darnold haters, and the gut-punch of Gray Zabel’s injury. Mitch unleashes a full-on rant about Greg Olsen’s broadcast style (“constant blabber”), while Scott notes how different the offense looks without Tory Horton on the field. The mood finally lifts with the news that the Mariners have locked up Josh Naylor on a five-year extension, giving Seattle fans a much-needed jolt of optimism. And then some baseball...

RUNDOWN Mitch solves last week’s “mafia lookalike” mystery — listeners decide he’s a dead ringer for The Sopranos’ Michael Imperioli. The guys riff through Goodfellas lore, Seahawks’ second straight blowout win, and Von Miller’s hilarious regret about choosing Washington over Seattle (“it’s like turning down a girl who became a movie star”). Heartfelt condolences to the family of Lenny Wilkens, celebrating the Hall of Famer’s legacy as both player and coach — and his decades as the Pacific Northwest’s ultimate basketball statesman. Then it’s back to...

RUNDOWN Is Mitch secretly a MOBSTER? The guys ride the high of a Seahawks blowout while fretting an Earnest Jones IV injury and torching D.C.’s awful turf, then rip through birthday/lore nuggets. An unforgettable World Series finish, seen through a Seattle lens—taking petty joy in Toronto’s collapse while admitting Game 7 (and the under-discussed, error-filled Game 6) will haunt Mariners fans for years. Then it’s all Seahawks: a near-perfect beatdown in D.C., vintage throwback uniforms, and why John Schneider should chase help at WR/OL/LB before the deadline. Mitch, Brady, and...

RUNDOWN In the aftermath of the Mariners’ heartbreaking Game 7 loss to the Blue Jays, Mitch Levy and guest co-host Danny O’Neil of The Dang Apostrophe open Episode 355 with Danny confessing that he’s “pretty mad,” venting at an online heckler named Tad Piland while Mitch directs his anger toward the Fox broadcast crew for comparing Toronto fans’ “long wait” to Seattle’s five decades of heartbreak. The conversation pivots to the Seahawks, whose 27-19 win over Houston somehow feels more lucky than convincing. Danny rails against red-zone play-calling and Cooper Kupp’s...

RUNDOWN Was this the single greatest weekend in Seattle sports history? Mitch and Hotshot relive Friday night’s 15-inning epic at T-Mobile Park as the Mariners advanced to the ALCS — Hotshot shares his in-stadium perspective, spilled beer and all, describing the crowd as “ear-splitting, like 1995 all over again.” Mitch calls Bryce Miller’s Game 1 masterpiece in Toronto “legendary” and compares it to the Mariners’ own must-win over Detroit. Then comes the forgotten hero of the weekend: Washington QB Damon Williams Jr., whose 538-yard, four-touchdown night went largely...

Episode 335 opens with a classic Mitch-and-Hotshot cold open built around a unique problem: there’s no area code 335. But that doesn't stop Mitch from spinning it into a musical deep dive centered on the new Eddie Vedder Cup, the tongue-in-cheek prize for the Mariners–Padres rivalry. The two riff on San Diego’s surprisingly rich musical heritage — from Blink-182 and Stone Temple Pilots to Iron Butterfly and Heart — as Mitch tries to reel in Hotshot with rock trivia and storytelling.
Then it's a packed slate of sports. Mitch breaks down the Mariners’ stunning three-game sweep of the Padres, with big contributions from unlikely heroes like Dylan Moore and Rowdy Tellez, and serious praise for the bullpen and manager Dan Wilson. Brady Farkas and Joe Doyle join to analyze Seattle’s weirdly dominant road performances, the emergence of Brian Woo as a potential All-Star and ace, and what to expect with George Kirby’s return.
On the football side, Mitch unpacks the Seahawks’ 2025 schedule, including an unprecedented ESPN+ Monday Night game with a 10 PM ET kickoff. He also dives into the quarterback gauntlet Seattle won’t face — just two of the top 12 QBs from 2024’s passer efficiency ratings.
Chance Miller, AD at Coastal Carolina, discusses a groundbreaking promotion giving free concessions to football attendees — and how it actually boosts revenue. Mariners' No-Table give their scouting analysis on the Mariners’ rotation depth and the likelihood of a Cole Young call-up. Nick Sheridan, Alabama’s co-OC, gives us an inside look at Jalen Milroe — his arm, his speed, and what Seattle fans should expect from their rookie quarterback.
The episode wraps with “The Other Stuff” — from John Madden: The Movie to Scottie Scheffler’s third major win to Brock Purdy’s $265 million payday.
