BRS 131 - Week 10 Recap: We Lost to the Jets

Tap In Media — Mon, 10 Nov 2025 03:55:38 +0000

Welcome to the Burning River Sportscast where today Kenny Thunder and Ronnie Jams tackle the Browns' latest loss to the New York Jets with the same enthusiasm as a Browns fan watching Dillon Gabriel’s 22 yard TD pass to Jerry Jeudy. And just like that pass we might come up a little short. We'll explore the Browns' performance, or lack thereof, which at times felt like watching a comedy show rather than a football game. From fumbled plays to questionable calls, we promise more laughs than a Browns fan at a Super Bowl party. So grab your popcorn, settle in, and let's commiserate together over the team that keeps us guessing. Remember, it's not just football; it's Browns football!

BRS 129 - BYE Week Review: A Very Scary BYE

Tap In Media — Fri, 31 Oct 2025 13:58:45 +0000

In today's episode we bring you: Hot Takes from the Hot Take Hotline. Myles Garret breaks another record! Who is expected to be moved before the trade deadline? Jimmy Haslam is happy with the job Kevin Stefanski has done. Kevin Stefanski is happy enough with the job Dillon Gabriel has done that he wants to stick with him. When will Shedeur Sanders play and why is there so much controversy around his supposed back injury? Why isn't this Kevin Stefanski's focus? And if it isn't his focus then what is? Speculation surrounding the apparent deterioration of the relationship between Stefanski and Andrew Berry. So many friends of the show join us including: The Macho Fan, Brownstronaut, the Browns Backers of North Jersey, the Mile High Browns Backers, and Kenny Mac from the Ottawa Browns Backers! Division Round Up and King of the North with John Hughes (spoiler: he was absent due to illness and picked the Ravens, Colts, and Bears). Kenny Thunder's got something he wants to talk about. And he's also getting Gassed Up!

Join Kenny Thunder and Ronnie Jams on the Burning River Sportscast as they navigate the Browns' latest misadventure against the Patriots, where the only thing more deflated than the footballs was the Browns' offense. With Myles Garrett sacking like it's the Boston Tea Party and the quarterback situation more tangled than a Cape Cod traffic jam, this episode promises laughs, groans, and a sprinkle of hope for the bye week? Naw, who are we kidding? There is no hope as long as Stefanski is the HC and Berry is the GM. Tune in for our Dawg of the Week nominees, where the real MVP might just be the fans' patience. And don’t forget to call in with your hot takes—because let's face it, we all need a good laugh!

BRS 126 - Week 7 Recap: It's Rainin' Sideways

Tap In Media — Mon, 20 Oct 2025 03:13:39 +0000

Join Kenny Thunder and Ronnie Jams as they dissect the Browns' 31-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins, a game that left us questioning if we truly learned anything new. With plenty of laughs and a touch of skepticism, they explore whether the Browns' were genuinely impressive or if Miami simply played like a peewee team. And the weather certainly made it all as clear as mud. The ongoing saga of Kevin Stefanski's coaching decisions continues—should he still be on the hot seat despite the win? And what's the deal with Deshaun Watson's social media activity? Tune in for all the chaos, confusion, and comedy as we try to make sense of it all.

BRS 124 - Week 6 Recap: One Football Team, One Jar of Heinz

Tap In Media — Mon, 13 Oct 2025 03:29:17 +0000

In the heart of the Steel City, where the rivers meet and the Primanti Bros sandwiches reign supreme, there's a tale as old as time: the Cleveland Browns' legendary struggle on the gridiron. It's like watching a pierogi try to outpace a Pittsburgh trolley—futile yet oddly entertaining. With Kevin Stefanski’s play-calling being about as effective as a screen door on a submarine and an offense that fumbles like a Yinzer trying to pronounce 'Monongahela,' the Browns' game is a comedy of errors. But hey, at least we have the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, right? Damn Stillers...

Tap In Media — Mon, 06 Oct 2025 03:10:15 +0000

Join Kenny Thunder and Ronnie Jams as they recap the Browns' jolly good showdown against the Vikings in London! We ponder whether Kevin Stefanik was trying to lead us to glory or just enjoying a spot of tea and crumpets. And the big question: Is Stefanik's remaining time in Cleveland going to be as short-lived as a British summer? Tune in for their thoughts, a few laughs, and a dash of depression!

Tap In Media — Mon, 29 Sep 2025 02:55:50 +0000

In this week's recap episode of Burning River Sportscast, Ronnie Jams and Kenny Thunder dive into the Browns' latest performance, which can only be described as a “shit sandwich." With Joe Flacco's passes looking more like they were aimed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame than his receivers, and Kevin Stefanski's strategy as clear as a foggy day on Lake Erie, the Browns are giving Clevelanders a new reason to embrace the city's underdog spirit. Tune in for a laugh as they explore whether the Browns are vying for the title of "Cleveland's Most Reliable Letdown."

BRS 107 - Season 3 Finale: Super Bull

Tap In Media — Thu, 30 Jan 2025 21:29:37 +0000

This is the end. We've reached the end of Season 3 of Burning River Sportscast. A season that covered the disappointment that was the 2024 Cleveland Browns season. And we are thankful that we don't have to continue living in the nightmare that it was. It was a year that started with Super Bowl aspirations but instead brought us anger, resentment, grief, and despair at every turn. But as we Browns fans always do, we will now look to the future and assume that there is only one way to go from here and continue on with the unofficial Browns mantra... "There's always next year..."

In this final Season 3 episode we bring you all of the Browns happenings since the end of the regular season in the Burning River Rundown, we give our Hot 3 Sports Figure Movie Appearances, we take a quick look at the NFL playoffs and the upcoming Super Bowl, we discuss free agency and the draft, we get Gassed Up, and we bring in our good friend Kenny Mac from the Ottawa Browns Backers to discuss his 5 point plan for fixing the Browns.

All this and oh so much more and every single aspect of it gets broken down like no one else can break it down right here on the Burning River Sportscast!

BRS 106 - 2024 Season Recap: RIP

Tap In Media — Thu, 09 Jan 2025 05:49:08 +0000

That's a wrap. The shit show that was the 2024 Cleveland Browns Season has finally come to an end and we've all been released from the captivitiy we've been held in every Sunday for the past 18 weeks as we've watched some of the worst football ever witnessed by man. Seriously... what the hell was that? And now the Browns are "running it back" with basically the same front office and coaching staff so obviously we have A LOT to look forward to. In case you didn't catch it, that last sentence was dripping with sarcasm.

And so on this edition of BRS we're bringing you the final Dawg of the Week, one last Division Roundup, another quick trip Around the NFL, our Hot 3 worst Cleveland Browns QBs since 1999 in honor of the Browns starting their 40th QB in that timeframe, The Cleveland Browns 2024 Season Recap as well as our gut feelings on what the offseason holds, final standings for and the crowning of the King of the North, Gassed Up, our Super Bowl matchup and winner picks, and oh so much more!

So never fear because even when the Browns let you down, Burning River Sportscast is here. And we break it all down for you.

Tap In Media — Thu, 02 Jan 2025 19:35:50 +0000

It's Week 18 and just one more game separates us Browns fans from some sweet relief after enduring the most painful Cleveland Browns season in recent memory. And that's saying a lot! It seems fitting that the team that gets to put us out of our misery this weekend is the Baltimore Ravens aka The Old Browns.

On this week's edition of BRS we've got the Dawg of the Week, Division Roundup, a trip Around the NFL, our Hot 3 Nicolas Cage movies, an interview with the Annapolis Area Browns Backers, updated King of the North results and the final picks for this season, Gassed Up, and of course the Week 18 Preview.

BRS 102 - Week 17 Preview: Testa-Fin

Tap In Media — Fri, 27 Dec 2024 03:31:21 +0000

It's Week 17, Christmas is over, and Kevin Santa-ski delivered a giant pile of crap to Cleveland Browns fans everywhere. Or at least that's what it feels like as he has committed to DTR for yet another week effectively guaranteeing a Browns loss. To our great dismay it looks like our prediction from several weeks ago will be coming true and the Browns will be finishing 3-14 and potentially vying for the number one overall pick. Which we are then sure to blow on a QB or RB that will come here to suffer behind an aging line that, frankly, is just not that good. They say the night is darkest before the dawn... but what if you're stuck in the night that never ends? All of us Browns fans are and there is no end in sight.

Lucky for you, there's BRS to brighten your weeks as you prepare for more Browns football... or what they claim is football. In this edition of the show you can look forward to Dawg of the Week, the Division Roundup, a trip Around the NFL, our Hot 3 things we'd do if we won the Mega Millions, an interview with another Browns Backers chapter - the Sarasota Browns Backers, updated King of the North standings and this week's picks, Gassed Up, the Week 17 Preview, and so much more.

And we break it all down for you like no one else can right here on the Burning River Sportscast!

BRS 100 - Week 16 Preview: Ciento

Tap In Media — Fri, 20 Dec 2024 02:30:52 +0000

It's Week 16 and most Cleveland Browns fans are looking to the offseason and the NFL Draft in April. Even the team is talking more about their plans for their new stadium than their current season. Yes, all is normal in Cleveland as the season wraps up and we're all forced to watch a few meaningless football games until the real teams start the real season (the postseason) in January. At least it's the holiday season and this gives all Browns fans a chance to forget about football and focus on their families during these joyous times... Wait what... Browns fans are just going to wallow in the pain that is the next 3 blowout losses with DTR under center and the offense going no where... because we're Browns fans... and that's just what we do? Sorry everyone... I forgot. For some reason unknown to anyone anywhere we love this team unconditionally to the ends of the earth - a place they've taken us multiple times.

On a higher note: It's our 100th episode! This is a huge milestone that we are extremely proud of and to celebrate we've got multiple appearances from friends of the show including: John Hughes, Macho Fan, Browns Backers of North Jersey, Mile High Browns Backers, Pikes Peak Browns Backers, Brownstronaut, and Towpath Distillery! We also bring you Dawg of the Week, Division Roundup, our Hot 3 Christmas Carols (complete with singing), an interview with the Cin-Day Lucky Dawgs, updated King of the North standings and picks, Gassed Up, and of course the Week 16 Preview!

So get ready for us to break it down for you right here on the Burning River Sportscast because this is the greatest show!

It's week 13 and it's Thanksgiving! It's time to count your blessings and be thankful for what we do have - or don't have - in our life. For Browns fans there isn't much but here's some things we can give thanks for:

The Browns beat the Steelers on TNF
Jameis Winston is a National Treasure and may be the bridge QB that we need as this team rebuilds
Nick Chubb seems to be returning to form
Myles Garrett sounds like he'll be on a mission the rest of the year hunting for sacks
Out of our fan base was born the Browns Backers who do so much good around the world and represent who we are so well
We no longer have Deshaun Watson as our QB1

There are probably more but these are the things that came to mind right off the top of our heads. So think about and reflect on your blessings while you listen to the next 2.5 hours of warm, steaming BRS goodness that comes straight from the Tap In Media kitchen!

BRS 93 - Week 11 Recap & Week 12 Preview: Voodoo Magic and the Steel Curtain

Tap In Media — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 18:56:49 +0000

It's Week 12 and the skies just seem to be getting darker by the day in Cleveland, Ohio. Not only are we in full swing with seasonal depression due to the weather and the fact that it gets dark so damn early, but our Browns are back to playing Debbie Downer providing a double dose of demoralizing defeat on top of that and making us wonder how we aren't all on mass amounts of meds to cope with the overwhelming doom and gloom that comes with being a part of this fan base in the depths of the dark times. BUT... we're all here for it and a lot of us have an absolutely unwarranted optimism that the Browns will somehow hang with, and maybe even beat, the Pittsburgh Steelers on this day. Man, being a Browns fan is wild! And we love it... We hate it... but we love it!

On today's edition of BRS you can look forward to the brief Week 11 Recap for the embarassing loss to the Saints (one that we were at with TrueFan Travel - who put together an amazing travel package for this game that exceeded the hype), the Dawg of the Week as voted on by our followers, the Division Roundup, a fantastic interview with the president of the Ottawa Browns Backers - Kenny Mac, King of the North, Gassed Up, the Week 12 Preview for the game tonight against the Steelers, and oh so much more.

So don't stay depressed, take whichever form of medication you need to and get yourself up because we're gonna break all this down like no one else can right here on the Burning River Sportscast!

It's Week 9 of the NFL season and your Cleveland Browns have a new lease on life! That lease comes in the form of Jameis Winston. Who knew that the only thing the Cleveland Browns were missing to transform into the team that we watched most of last season was a cometent quarterback? Oh, we did? And we've been saying it all year? And we actually called Jameis Winston a "younger, more athletic Joe Flacco" at the time the Browns acquired him? Hmmm....

Tap In Media — Thu, 24 Oct 2024 04:05:00 +0000

It's Week 8 in the NFL and your Cleveland Browns are still in contention for the number one draft pick. The Browns have once again defied all odds and let their fans down more than anyone had previously thought possible. And that was before Deshaun Watson ruptured his achilles and the reaction from fans sent this franchise and it's fan base into an all out civil war.

BRS Special Edition: Q-Collar

Tap In Media — Sat, 19 Oct 2024 16:00:00 +0000

In this Burning River Sportscast Special Edition episode we chat with Suzanne Willams, VP of Sports Marketing at Q30 and Dr. Wayne Olan, Q30 Medical Advisor.

We wanted to release this interview as it's own episode because we think it is important that this interview be easily accessible to help spread the word about this revolutionary product that can help significantly reduce head injuries at all levels and in all sports. In this interview we discuss the Q-Collar and why concussions should not be the only thing that we are trying to prevent when it comes to head injuries. They are just the tip of the iceberg. And Q-Collars can protect against so much more than that.

Please take some time to learn about Q-Collar and consider investing in one for yourself, your team, your child, or a loved one.

**This is not a paid advertisement: we just really believe in this product**

BRS 85 - Week 7 Preview: What's Going On?

Tap In Media — Thu, 17 Oct 2024 04:05:00 +0000

It's Week 7, the Browns have their first division game this week, the wheels have completely fallen off, they are the worst team in football, and their $230M QB is statistically one of the worst of all time. But Nick Chubb is coming back! What the f*** is going on!?

On this edition of BRS we discuss the best football player on planet earth is returning and that is the first thing we can be excited about in weeks, talk with Pumpkinhead regarding the city of Cleveland shutting down his tailgate after 14 years, reveal this week's Dawg of the Week, talk more about how awful Deshaun Watson is, chat about a former Browns OL calling out the organization, take a quick trip around the NFL, bring you our Hot 3 halloween candy choices, get Gassed Up, talk with the Muni Lot Browns Backers, discuss a revolutionary product that can help prevent head injuries (Q-Collar), update you on our King of the North Standings, and of course we bring you the Week 7 Preview!

BRS 83 - Week 6 Preview: The Definition of Insanity

Tap In Media — Thu, 10 Oct 2024 04:05:00 +0000

It's Week 6 and your Cleveland Browns continue to struggle. The coaching staff and front office continue to stand behind a QB who is clearly a shell of his former self. Despite growing evidence that he will never regain his old form and a season that is quickly slipping away, they trot him out each week and expect the outcome to be different. The definition of insanity is doing something the same way repeatedly and expecting a different result. With that being said, it has become all to clear that the coaching staff and front office in Cleveland are insane. And for that we all pay the price.

In this edition of BRS we're breaking down what is happening with the team, bringing in the one and only John Greco to see if there is a way that he sees them fixing it, talking with the Philadelphia Browns Backers to see if they think the team can get it figured out, and we're previewing the Week 6 matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. And for some levity since talking Browns can be extra depressing right now given the state of the team we will be getting Gassed Up, bringing you our Hot 3 fears, continuing the quest to crown the King of the North.

All that and oh so much more when we break it all down for you right here on the hottest Cleveland Browns podcast in the game - Burning River Sportscast!

It's Week 3 and Browns fans have already gone from "Super Bowl" to "we ass" to "I think we'll be alright"! Now that the first trip around the roller coaster track is behind us lets all settle down and hope the Browns aren't going to be giving us heart attacks and whiplash all season long.
