In this week's P.O. Box:

Today is the big day. I’ll be live on YouTube from the NFL Studios at 7:00 PM ET for the Chiefs vs. Chargers pregame show. You can watch it here. My main segment will be on at 7:25 PM ET time, but I’ll be on before that as well setting those guys up with some topics.

Also, ICYMI: yesterday I got to host a stream on my channel from the studio with Derek Carr, Brandon Marshall, and Tyrann Mathieu. Here’s the replay.

As we shift from offseason best ball mode to in-season DFS mode, I wanted to share my content schedule for the fall and rundown some of the changes…

After two seasons on Thursdays, we are taking our companion stream to Sunday afternoons. Instead of one (generally) awful TNF game, we will be going live every Sunday at 4:00 PM ET for the second wave of games. Think Shipcast meets Tilt Space—RedZone and way more games to follow, more Pick ‘em options, more guests, more fun. See you Sunday.

The Friday DFS shows with JMToWin at 1pm ET are going nowhere, but this season I’ll be adding a second show to the programming block—Bully The Sims. It will feature Youdacao—one of the top DFS players in the world—and a rotating cast of the gigabrains from the Endgame Syndicate. I’ll be picking Youda’s brain for ball knowledge and testing builds and settings with the Run The Sims tools.

I had so much fun with the Best Ball Bash this summer that I decided to keep it rolling in-season. Every Thursday at 3:30pm ET, YouTube members will have a chance to hop on stream and draft a Battle Royale team with me. If it finishes in the Top 200 or better, we will split the prize. Because the BR drafts are so quick compared to the best ball drafts, we should be able to get a lot more guests on stage.

Speaking of Battle Royales, I’m also going to host a weekly “DFS Jam” on the Fantasy Life YouTube where I draft teams, talk strategy for the slate, and spin the wheel for some challenges. This will be every Thursday at noon ET starting next week.

Last year I made weekly videos on the Deposit Kingdom channel where I shared my favorite sleepers for the DFS slate. I had fun making them—and they provided a ton of value to people—but the amount of time and editing required did not match the views.

This year I’ll be doing the same research, but sharing the gems for 1) Highest tier YouTube Members (Handbuilders & Opto Bros) and 2) Masterclass subs. Get the Week 1 gems here (Youtube / Masterclass).

Speaking of the Masterclass, the 20% coupon for launch week is going away on Sunday. If you want to lock it in at a discount, use promo code POBOX when you enroll.

As a reminder, here is everything included with the Youtube memberships at the various tiers…

🤖 Hand Builders & Opto Bros ($7.99/month):

🐺 Best Ball Value Hounds ($6.99/month):

The membership tiers are nested, so if you are a Hand Builder & Opto Bro, you get access to everything (including all of the other private Discord channels).

No DFS After Dark this week as I’ll be traveling back from L.A., but the first DFS Cram of the year will go live at 10:30 am ET on Sunday:

For After Dark shows, you can become a YT member for access or subscribe on Spotify for a private RSS feed (I post the video/audio there directly after the show).

And then we’ll have the ShipCast at 4pm ET.
