Justin and Dan recap Auburn basketball’s comfortable win over yet another NCAA Tournament hopeful away from home in a Quad 1 game. They start by looking at how impressive the Tigers have been in a non-conference slate that was by far the toughest in program history and how far ahead the team is from the pack right now.
The guys break down Johni Broome’s remarkable double-double less than 100 hours from a rough-looking shoulder injury, Auburn’s suffocating defense against a great Purdue offense and the standout performances of Chad Baker-Mazara, Tahaad Pettiford and Johni Broome.
Towards the end of the episode, they talk about Charles Kelly’s departure to become Jacksonville State’s new head coach and the irritating discourse around the first round of the College Football Playoff. Dan makes his pitch for The War for the Wiregrass. Justin gives his top nine albums of the year. Merry Christmas.

Justin and Dan break down Auburn basketball’s ultra-dominant performance in Atlanta against Ohio State in this year’s Holiday Hoopsgiving.
The guys start by looking at what made this victory so impressive and why the Tigers have cemented themselves as the nation’s current No. 1 team — no matter what the human polls might say. They look at Johni Broome’s 20/20 game and marvel at how it could have been even better. Then they go into all the elements of what made Auburn’s backcourt so successful against Ohio State’s loaded guard lineup.
Then it’s a switch over to football, where Auburn football has picked up a new quarterback in Oklahoma’s Jackson Arnold. They discuss the pros and the cons of this transfer pickup for the Tigers and look at a pair of further additions to the roster. (Note: This was recorded before Auburn landed offensive tackle Xavier Chaplin.)

Christian Clemente of Auburn247 becomes the first third mic in the studio era of The Auburn Observer podcast. He joins Justin and Dan to talk about Auburn football’s top-10 class in the 2025 recruiting cycle, headlined by 5-star quarterback Deuce Knight and a large number of blue-chippers the Tigers had to hold onto down the stretch.
How did Auburn sign such a strong class in a losing season? And how much does the recruiting pitch change heading into a pressure-packed 2026 cycle for the program? Christian breaks it all down and gives his thoughts on each individual signee in the 2025 haul for the Tigers.
Later in the episode, Justin and Dan break down Auburn basketball’s 45-point beatdown of Richmond from Sunday. The guys talk about Johni Broome and Chad Baker-Mazara’s unselfishness, the Tigers’ great team defense and the breakout performance of Jahki Howard. The show ends with a lightning round of topics that include Christmas watches, child actor performances and Juan Soto.

Justin and Dan are both back in Auburn after their travels, and they open the show with a breakdown of the Iron Bowl loss to Alabama. The guys look at why the Tigers’ offense just couldn’t finish their chances throughout the season and how it really hurt them against the Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa.
Then it’s a pivot over to the defensive side of the ball, where the results were a mixed bag overall — but the youth movement gives some more hope for the 2025 season. They also look ahead to what could be happening on signing day this Wednesday and why there’s a limit to how much an elite recruiting class means right now.
The episode ends with a preview of Auburn basketball’s massive road trip to face Duke. The guys discuss Johni Broome vs. Cooper Flagg and why there’s one particular aspect of this matchup in Cameron Indoor Stadium that might favor the visiting Tigers.

After their long travels, Justin and Dan are back in the Wings studio to share their many thoughts on Auburn basketball’s statement comeback win at Houston. (They don’t have nearly as many thoughts on the whole plane incident, though.)
The guys open with a look at how it took everybody for the Tigers to rally against the Cougars — and how Tahaad Pettiford and Johni Broome had superstar-level performances in the Toyota Center. Justin shares his insight from what he saw and heard from being in Houston on Saturday night, while Dan points out the historical significance of what Bruce Pearl’s team did in this game.
Later in the episode, they look at what this win means in the big picture for an Auburn basketball program looking to win a championship. They also share their recent experiences away from the Plains and make a startling discovery about “Mr. Brightside.”

Justin and Dan open the show by breaking down how Auburn football continues to go backwards — especially in home games — in Year 2 under Hugh Freeze. They look at what the Tigers were unable to do against Vanderbilt, including the puzzling lack of carries for Jarquez Hunter and the failure to capitalize on an outstanding defensive performance against Diego Pavia and company.
Then it’s a switch over to basketball, where they look at where Auburn improved from the first to second exhibition. Dan gives his thoughts on strong debuts from true freshmen Tahaad Pettiford and Jahki Howard. Justin shows how the Tigers rose to Bruce Pearl’s challenges on offense and where they can improve on defense.
The episode ends with a quick look at Wednesday night’s season opener against a tricky Vermont team that’s been a regular in the NCAA Tournament for years. The guys also discuss their basketball travel in the upcoming days, which will mean an end to regular studio episodes for a while. Don’t worry, though. They’ll still deliver the podcast, from coast to coast.

Justin and Dan open the show by breaking down Auburn football’s 24-10 road win at Kentucky. They start with the resilient play of the Tigers’ defense, which won big at the line of scrimmage and played well on the back end down the stretch. Dan projects what Auburn’s secondary might look like in 2025 after throwing so many young players into the fire.
The guys then switch over to the offensive performance. Justin explains why Auburn went so pass-heavy early and how the Tigers finally made the adjustment they needed to dominate the game. They rave over Jarquez Hunter’s historic rushing performance and how he deserved a moment like this.
In the second half of the episode, Henry Patton of Auburn Rivals calls in from South Carolina to share what he saw in the basketball exhibition win over Furman. Henry explains why Auburn’s defense was so successful, how fans shouldn’t overreact to individual performances and where the two true freshmen stood out the most. The show ends with a discussion of Stanley Kubrick and Halloween movies.

Justin and Dan stay up to break down Auburn football’s latest loss in a very winnable game — a blown 14-point lead on the road at Missouri.
The guys open with their thoughts on how the Tigers’ offense problems have gone well beyond turnovers and into crippling amounts of inefficiency. Dan makes a point about what might happen if things could turn around toward the end of the season. Justin wonders if Auburn just is what it is at this point in the campaign.
They also discuss the recurring woes on defense and special teams and how they played roles in the meltdown, even if scoring only 10 offensive points in an SEC game was the ultimate killer. They look at what might happen moving forward with the young players and why improved recruiting isn’t a guarantee of anything. The episode ends with a lightning round of Hallmark movies, Kansas City barbecue and North by Northwest.

For the fifth straight year, the Observer podcast takes a break during football season and uses the off week to preview Auburn basketball’s upcoming campaign.
This year, Justin and Dan take a player-by-player look through the Tigers’ heavily hyped 2024-25 roster, from the returning All-American presence of Johni Broome through the deep frontcourt and into a reloaded backcourt. They give their thoughts on each member of the squad and how they fit into the plan.
They discuss the preseason hype surrounding the Tigers, reasons to believe they could be even better this season, areas of improvement to watch and how the blend of depth, experience and a little bit of youth should make for an exciting time for Bruce Pearl and Co. Then, they close the show by ranking world cuisines.

Justin and Dan break down what they both saw from the Sanford Stadium press box on Saturday as Auburn football fell once again on the road at rival Georgia, 31-13.
The guys talk about how the Tigers statistically fared better in Athens than in seasons past, but that should be talked about in the full context of what’s gone on this year. They look at the lack of efficiency from the offense, Payton Thorne’s doomed fourth-and-1 run and how Auburn needs to reengineer its attack during the off week.
Toward the end of the show, Justin gives an honest review of Auburn’s defensive performance against Georgia while Dan looks at the number of young players lining up for the Tigers. They also take a trip through the wild, upset-heavy Week 6 in college football before paying tribute to some anniversary albums.
