On the eve of their first regular-season NFL game on Amazon Prime, Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit joined the pod to discuss their plan for calling games on the streaming service and how they’ve approached their partnership. The two also discuss the free-agent frenzy that hit NFL announcers in the offseason; Michaels talks about how he will decide when to hang up his announcer’s microphone; and Herbstreit offers his two cents on Big Ten expansion. Other topics: Michaels’ disdain for vegetables and Herbstreit’s travel schedule to Boone, N.C.

Marchand and Ourand also discuss ESPN’s future, what to expect from Amazon’s first game and a review of Week 1 on television. The two also make their weekly picks about Who’s Up, Who’s Down and Call of the Week.
