Beef segments, Beef tower
Summary
Jim Rome hosts a rapid-fire "Beef" segment where callers vent frustrations about back-to-school scheduling, rude DoorDash customers, and annoying public restroom sensors. Listeners also complain about Guy Fieri’s lack of critical reviews, athletes downplaying their earnings, and new speed cameras. Rome shares personal anecdotes about his son’s college start and a stale Starbucks protein box that made his wife sick. The episode concludes with banter about the studio’s taped-up "Tower of Beef" and a plea for YouTube subscriptions.
