  • Dylan

    My favorite show on the station, but Dylan has got to stop talking so much. He talks almost as much as the hosts, and it’s annoying. Be more like Ted, and know when to interject.

  • Bound to Be the Best

    The Dynamic Duo of Brother Bone and my cousin Tyvis is hard to beat anywhere in the continent.

    With their unique combination of insight and wisdom, they bring a perspective on the Central Ohio Sports Scene needs, with just the right balance of humor and serious commentary.

    My only prayer is that they don’t get snatched away by some national media conglomerate that will have their show done in some forsaken place like Connecticut.

  • Haters Only Hate Because It’s New.

    This is a fantastic morning sports show. They keep it fresh and relevant. Bone and Tyvis have a great vibe together, and it’s pretty obvious that everyone who doesn’t like the show is probably over the age of 35 and can’t deal with change lol. After a bit of time they’re really starting to gel and I think they’re gonna attract a lot of new listeners. Especially a slightly younger better crowd. Was sad about the Man & Bone split at first but I think we just got 2 even better shows now. Will be li... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

T-Bone & Tyvis September, 29, 2026
Q: What is the core rationale behind trading Kirill Marchenko right before the season starts?
The panel argued it was largely a salary and culture move, moving a high-scoring but reportedly locker-room-facing player to clear cap space and reorient the roster around players who want to be in Columbus, with Matthew Nye expected to contribute in a more team-oriented role.
T-Bone & Tyvis October, 3, 2026
Q: What did you think about Jeremiah Smith's potential impact this season?
Charles Davis highlights Smith's elite route-running and playmaking ability, comparing him to Hall of Fame-level receivers and predicting a high NFL draft grade based on performance and body control.
T-Bone & Tyvis September, 12, 2026
Q: Coach, is there any one matchup you're watching that could swing the game for Ohio State?
Urban Meyer explains that while individual matchups matter, the most critical factor is the overall preparation and execution of the game plan; the team that is more prepared and disciplined tends to win, regardless of any single matchup.
T-Bone & Tyvis September, 4, 2026
Q: What is the dominant theme of tonight's show?
A broad discussion of week one college football action, Buckeyes expectations, quarterback development, and related NFL and NIL topics, with guests and multiple bets discussed.
T-Bone & Tyvis August, 26, 2026
Q: Should players who sign NFL contracts be allowed to return to college for another year?
Guests and hosts suggest it should be limited and context-dependent, with many arguing the rules were clear, but potential court battles could change the landscape; overall, a cautious stance toward allowing many to return.
