• Raiders 2026 Preview: Win Total, Fantasy Sleepers & Best Bets (Ep 252)
    Jul 3 2026

    The 2026 NFL Team Previews begin with the Las Vegas Raiders, and Stephie Smalls is joined by Vegas Matty from FootballContest.com to break down one of the most interesting rebuilds in the NFL. The Raiders have Fernando Mendoza, Kirk Cousins, Brock Bowers, Ashton Jeanty, Maxx Crosby, and a new coaching direction, but how quickly can this team actually become dangerous?

    Stephie and Vegas Matty discuss the Raiders’ 2025 struggles, why Kirk Cousins makes sense as a bridge quarterback, when Mendoza could take over, and how Klint Kubiak’s offense could help unlock Jeanty and the run game. They also get into Raiders fantasy football sleepers, including Mike Washington Jr. as a handcuff and possible goal-line vulture, plus Trey Tucker, Jalen Nailor, Dante Thornton, and the rest of the young receiver room.

    Then it is time for the betting board: Raiders win total, AFC West odds, playoff longshots, Maxx Crosby Defensive Player of the Year prices, Ashton Jeanty rushing props, and how Vegas Matty is approaching the under at plus money. Plus, Matty explains how FootballContest.com works as a Las Vegas proxy service for Circa Survivor, Circa Millions, Grandissimo, and other major football contests.

    Listen to The Stephie Smalls Show for every 2026 NFL team preview, fantasy football angle, futures bet, win total pick, and best bet all offseason.

  • Arizona Cardinals 2026 Preview: Win Total, Futures Bets & Fantasy Sleepers (Ep 251)
    Jul 2 2026

    Arizona Cardinals 2026 preview: Stephie Smalls and Producer Ryan McKee break down win total bets, futures and fantasy football targets for one of the strangest teams on the NFL board.

    The 2026 NFL Team Previews continue with the Arizona Cardinals, and Ryan arrives with something dangerous: actual optimism. Stephie and Ryan recap a brutal 2025 season, the end of the Kyler Murray era, the Gardner Minshew and Jacoby Brissett quarterback questions, and why Carson Beck could start more games than people expect if the season goes sideways early.

    They also dig into the Cardinals’ offseason changes, including Michael LaFleur taking over, Nathaniel Hackett’s role, the Jeremiah Love draft pick, Tyler Allgeier joining the backfield, offensive line upgrades, pass-rush concerns and the question that haunts every bad NFL team: do they have an identity, or just “stuff”?

    For bettors, this episode covers the Cardinals’ 2026 win total, over 3.5 wins, fewest wins odds, playoff futures, team points futures and possible Carson Beck starts props. For fantasy football players, Stephie and Ryan discuss Trey McBride as a top tight end, Jeremiah Love in best ball, Michael Wilson as a sleeper, and whether Marvin Harrison Jr. is now being drafted too low.

  • Miami Dolphins 2026 NFL Team Preview: Fantasy Football Picks, Win Total Bets & Futures (Ep 250)
    Jul 1 2026

    Miami Dolphins 2026 NFL team preview with fantasy football picks, win total bets, futures odds and comedian/Dolphins superfan Brad Allred.

    The 2026 NFL Team Previews begin with the Miami Dolphins, and Stephie Smalls brings on Brad Allred for a full breakdown of one of the weirdest teams on the board. Miami won seven games last season after a brutal start, missed the playoffs again, and now enters 2026 with a stripped-down roster, a new direction, and a betting profile that screams “either rebuild plan or football crime scene.” Stephie and Brad talk through the Dolphins win total, AFC East outlook, playoff odds, fewest wins market, last winless team bet, fourth in division price, and whether there are enough wins on the schedule to get over 4.5.

    They also dig into the fantasy football side of the Dolphins preview. De’Von Achane gets the strongest fantasy case because of his rushing and pass-catching upside. Malik Willis brings rushing-floor appeal in best ball and superflex formats, even if the offense could get messy. Greg Dulcich gets discussed as a late tight end value, while the Miami wide receiver room sounds more like a weekly DFS dart board than a group to trust in redraft.

    This episode is part betting preview, part fantasy football preview, and part Dolphins fan group therapy. Brad brings the jokes, the pain, the Fins Up loyalty, and a few futures bets that may help make a rough season profitable. Listen for Miami Dolphins 2026 win total predictions, NFL futures, AFC East betting, fantasy football sleepers and the start of the full 2026 NFL team preview series on The Stephie Smalls Show.

  • Ask Smalls Anything: Jaxson Dart, Cam Skattebo & World Cup Fans (Ep 249)
    Jun 28 2026

    Ask Smalls Anything is back with listener questions, sports betting angles, and the exact kind of chaos you would expect when the episode starts with Prague comedy stories and somehow ends near sweaty ball season.

    Stephie Smalls and Ryan McKee cover Ludvig Åberg’s golf struggles, whether Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo are being undervalued in Giants futures and fantasy football, and what to expect as The Stephie Smalls Show gets ready for NFL team previews. They also get into Arizona Cardinals pessimism, the upcoming lowest-to-highest win total preview schedule, and why the Giants hype might not be fully reflected in betting or fantasy markets yet.

    Outside the sports universe, Stephie defends fat people from terrible Greek yogurt advice, Ryan explains why Americans should stop pretending to be Canadian in Europe, and the crew answers listener questions about the hottest World Cup fans, advice for people in their 20s, whether it’s weird to keep exes’ nudes, and how many likes it would take for Book of Chew to get Stephie to a Chicago baseball game.

  • 2026 NFL Futures Best Bets With Scott Reichel | Stephie Smalls Show (Ep 248)
    Jun 26 2026

    Fan-favorite sports handicapper Scott Reichel of multiple Sports Gambling Podcast Network shows joins Stephie Smalls to give out their best 2026 NFL futures bets, win totals, team scoring props, player props and long-shot picks.

    Scott opens with the Las Vegas Raiders under 333.5 regular-season points, arguing that Kirk Cousins, an unsettled quarterback situation and one of the NFL’s weakest offensive lines could keep the Raiders near the bottom of the league in scoring.

    Stephie targets Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley under 624.5 receiving yards and under 3.5 receiving touchdowns. Scott adds Titans under 6.5 wins, questioning whether Cam Ward and the offense can make a major leap behind a struggling offensive line.

    The conversation then turns to Jacksonville. Scott takes the Jaguars over 400.5 regular-season points, while Stephie identifies Trevor Lawrence at 20/1 and Caleb Williams at 22/1 as value picks to lead the NFL in passing yards.

    They also debate whether the hype surrounding Tyler Shough and the New Orleans Saints has gone too far, why the Carolina Panthers could remain competitive in the NFC South and whether Justin Herbert deserves similar passing-yard odds.

    Scott’s biggest long-shot prediction is the Arizona Cardinals to be the NFL’s final winless team at +270. Arizona begins the season as a projected touchdown-or-greater underdog in 11 consecutive games, creating the possibility of an extremely ugly start.

    Stephie backs New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo over 6.5 rushing touchdowns at plus money after he scored five times in only five starts last season. They also discuss Jackson Dart, the Giants’ offensive line and Skattebo’s potential role near the goal line.

    Scott closes the betting card with Buffalo Bills over 10.5 wins. Buffalo has won at least 11 games in six consecutive seasons, and Scott believes Josh Allen, DJ Moore and a favorable AFC East outlook can keep that streak alive.

    The episode also includes thoughts on Kyler Murray joining the Minnesota Vikings, JJ McCarthy, Carson Beck, the Cardinals’ coaching staff and Scott’s upcoming Wimbledon betting coverage.

    Odds mentioned in this episode are subject to change. Always shop around for the best available line and gamble responsibly.

  • Ask Smalls Anything: Canceling Plans, Dating Cops & Comment Trolls (Ep 246)
    Jun 15 2026

    Ask Smalls Anything Episode 15 gets loose fast as Stephie Smalls and Ryan McKee answer questions, rant about modern friendship rules, and explain why adults should be allowed to cancel plans without being treated like they committed emotional arson.

    Stephie breaks down whether she would date a cop from Connecticut, tells the story of getting arrested before a John Mayer concert, and ranks the best places to people-watch, including airports, subways, dive bars, bowling alleys, and amusement parks. Ryan gets into boomers and mental health, age-related comment trolls, and why “great looking for his age” is technically a compliment but spiritually a felony.

    The episode also gets into Instagram DMs, backhanded compliments, free will, lonely men, Chewy trying to hang out in New York, and why sports bettors need to calm down when someone gives out a long-shot bet like Ravens third in the AFC North. If you like sports, comedy, listener questions, dating stories, and chaotic rants that somehow become life advice, this one is for you.

  • World Cup Betting 101: Best Bets, Futures & Dark Horses (Ep 245)
    Jun 10 2026

    The World Cup is here, and Stephie Smalls is getting the full World Cup Betting 101 treatment from Malcolm Bamford of the Sports Gambling Podcast Network. If you’re not a hardcore soccer bettor but want to know which futures, dark horses, props, group bets, and longshots are actually worth considering, this episode is the crash course.

    Malcolm breaks down the expanded 48-team World Cup format, why the tournament creates more betting opportunities, and what casual bettors need to understand before betting futures. He explains why France and Spain are the true favorites, why Colombia may be undervalued, and why Senegal at 125-to-1 is the kind of longshot that makes World Cup betting dangerously fun.

    Stephie and Malcolm also discuss the USA’s realistic ceiling as one of the host nations. Malcolm explains why the USMNT has a favorable group, why winning the group is possible, and why a Round of 16 finish may be the most realistic expectation. They also get into whether home-field advantage actually matters in a global soccer tournament.

    The episode digs into potential group-stage upsets, including Morocco as a threat to Brazil, Australia as a live longshot in the USA’s group, and why Brazil and Germany may be more vulnerable than their names suggest. Malcolm also gives his strongest fade of the tournament: Norway at 25-to-1, which he calls one of the worst prices on the board.

    Then come the bets: Spain/Uruguay group exacta, Colombia top South American team, Heung-Min Son top South Korea goalscorer, Ecuador to go out on penalties, Luis Suarez for Colombia as a Golden Boot longshot, Senegal each-way, and Mikel Oyarzabal as a Spain goalscorer hedge.

    For World Cup betting picks, futures, dark horses, USA analysis, soccer betting strategy, and longshot props, this episode is your pre-tournament guide.
