(Will Brinson, our NFL blogging bro here at CBSSports.com, sat down to chat with Yahoo! Sports' Dan Wetzel about his new book, Death To The BCS.  The book goes on sale October 14 and is a must read for any fan of college football.)

I always say that our podcasts are good (and they are), but this one is particularly awesome, even if it's not totally "NFL-centric" (the plan was to chat some NFL with our guest, but, well, you'll see), as it features Dan Wetzel, Yahoo! Sports columnist and one of the authors of "Death to the BCS," a book which becomes available to the public starting 10/14 (which is probably tomorrow if you're a regular here).

I've read the book, it's fantastic, and I've got a review coming soon, but if you've got a spare 25 minutes today, you should absolutely listen to this podcast -- Wetzel and I talk about the ridiculousness of the BCS' spending on bowl games, the fabrications the "Cartel" keeps going in order to stop the promulgation of a playoff, the various ways confusion and corruption are used in pro-BCS arguments, why even the guys who do the math for the BCS don't like it and much, much more.

Enjoy below, buy the book at Amazon here, and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE VIA ITUNES.

I enjoyed this interview, but he was saying what all of us have known for years!
