Your replacement for Saturday morning cartoons or that warm cup of coffee has arrived. Or you can just enjoy those things on top of what I’m about to bring to your digital doorstep.
Yes, it’s Madden Sim season again.
For the uninitiated, every Saturday morning before a Sunday Detroit Lions game, I’ll hop on our YouTube and Twitch channels and fire up a game of Madden 27. I will do my best to adjust the roster as closely as they will be during the actual game, but then I let the computer take over the rest.
I do not grab the sticks, I do not call the plays or take over for a specific player. I let the game simulate the result completely, all while providing my own live commentary.
It’s also an opportunity for live viewers to do a Q&A. I like to answer any questions you may have about the upcoming game, the Lions’ season, or anything else that’s on your mind.
It’s a silly and fun way to start your Saturdays, and it’s become weirdly popular.
So if any of that interests you, come join us Saturday mornings around 10 a.m. ET. Here’s all of the details:
What: Lions vs. Saints, Week 1 simulation on Madden 27
Where: POD’s YouTube page | POD’s Twitch channel
When: September 12, 2026 — 10 a.m. ET
