Seth and his guest and former teammate, Drew Hodgdon, discuss the Manti Te'o documentary that's streaming on Netflix. There are some crazy new twists in the story, but Seth and Drew aren't falling for docu-tactics that try to make you feel bad for everybody involved. There's still plenty of blame to go around on this one, and anybody who tries to make you feel bad for laughing is a humorless goon.
