Ovies & Giglio open up the Butcher's Market OG Mailbag, and it quickly turns into a much-needed therapy session for the Triangle's most stressed-out fan bases. Caniacs? Over Freddie Andersen. Tar Heels? Over Belichick drama. NC State fans? Well, everyone knows Wolfpack ain't for soft people. Plus, thoughts on the future of college coaching searches, some K&W memories and recommendations on which Nintendo Switch makes the most sense this Christmas.

The show opens with Joe Giglio delivering an apology to NC State head coach Dave Doeren — which might be the best birthday present Doeren got all week. From there, the guys dive into Will Wade’s “Red Reckoning,” which is starting to look more like a series of red flags for Wolfpack hoops after their ACC-SEC Challenge loss at Auburn. As the Carolina Hurricanes gear up to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their 2006 Stanley Cup run, Canes legend Eric Staal joins the pod to reflect on that championship season and share what life has been like in retirement. Plus, a social media dump, a few detours (of course), and much more.
This episode comes to you from Copiers Plus in Fayetteville, where Ovies & Giglio were invited to the company’s holiday party. After two years as the show’s presenting sponsor, Copiers Plus is officially returning in 2026, and the guys celebrate by taking the show on the road to their corporate office.

On today’s Ovies & Giglio, the guys open with ACC hoops, which has quietly trended much better than last year’s slog. But this week brings a real measuring stick with the ACC–SEC Challenge, starting with potential statement opportunities for Duke and North Carolina. After a brief tangent on the end of an era with K&W cafeterias closing, the guys welcome ESPN’s David Hale to unpack the ACC’s doomsday College Football Playoff scenario. Should the league push for auto-bids, or is this a brutal reflection of Clemson and Florida State taking major steps back at the worst possible time? Then WFNZ’s Walker Mehl stops by to talk Carolina Panthers, searching for some level of zen while trying to make sense of Bryce Young and the overall direction of the franchise. Plus, the guys break down the latest sports media angle surrounding the ongoing Lane Kiffin saga.
