Ep. 009 Explaining the new college football playoff + NFL Week 11 + NFL wife talk

Ep. 011 A Solo journey. The 2024 NFL season compared to Mean Girls and the simplicity of how covering the spread works!.

This week on Back Door Cover, I’m going solo while Nikky is galavanting in Europe. Understanding sports and sports betting is elite—and it’s not about being a “pick me girl.” In this episode, I break down the 2024 NFL season through the lens of Mean Girls. Who is on top, the underdogs and our very own Aaron Samuels. Spoiler alert, it's Nick Bosa. He is hot. Whether you’re new to betting or just looking to understand the game better, this is your chance to level up your sports knowledge and maybe  win some walking around money along the way.

Ep. 010 Thanksgiving and football, a tale as old as time.

It’s Episode 10, and we’re stuffing your ears with a cornucopia of Thanksgiving greatness. We talk food and the history of why football and turkey day go together like wine and more wine. We go head to head on picking all three Thanksgiving Day NFL games. Will Nikky's picks continue to dominate or will Gabi’s football IQ prove sharp for the first time ever? Tune in for the best way to avoid talking politics at dinner: FOOTBALL. Happy Thanksgiving!

Ep. 009 Explaining the new college football playoff + NFL Week 11 + NFL wife talk

This week on The Back Door Cover Podcast, we’re serving up all the NFL Week 11 madness—because nothing says "sports" like the cowboys being bad and the lions being good. We also tackle the new 12-team college football playoff, explaining it in a way even your grandma could understand (probably). Oh, and because we only deliver hard hitting sports coverage, we power rank NFL wives. Spoiler: they are all ridiculously good looking.  Happy Betting.

Ep.008 Cooking up the perfect parlay

In this week’s episode of The Back Door Cover Podcast, we’re breaking down all the wild action from Week 10 of the NFL season, including Nikky’s massive win that has her feeling like a big shot—while the rest of us are just trying to remember how parlays work. We dive into the art (and occasional chaos) of building the perfect parlay: What to do, what not to do, and why betting on a 17-leg parlay while under the influence of too many game highlights might not be the smartest move. Plus, we’ll teach you about the different types of parlays—because who knew there were so many ways to lose money? Whether you’re a seasoned gambler or just getting into the betting game, we’ve got you covered with expert (and occasionally questionable) advice. Disclaimer: Nicky’s win is probably a fluke, but we’re celebrating it anyway.

Ep. 007 What the F is a player prop?

Buckle up! Episode 7 of Back Door Cover is here, and it’s got all the things you didn’t know you needed: NFL Week 9 breakdowns, a reminder that yes, Tom Brady does indeed make out with his kids, and chatter about the starts to both the NHL and NBA seasons. But wait, there's more! This episode also dives deep into the magical world of player prop bets—what they are, how to make them, and how to (hopefully) make some cash while you’re at it. Whether you're new to the betting scene or you've been placing bets since before Taylor Swift was paid by the NFL, this episode has got you covered.
