The best cure for the offseason blues is some good ol' fashioned beef on these streets, and while yes, some of it may be manufactured, the truth is that if there's a fun Urban/Harbaugh story out there that makes Michigan fans feel insecure, we're all in.

Fortunately for us, there is! Urban Meyer isn't the most subtle person in the history of the universe, and when he went all in talking up the Ohio State/Michigan rivalry (and his success in it) during a recent summer football camp with Jim Harbaugh standing a few feet away, it was like manna from heaven falling upon our weary, dried out husks. Add in some recent comments from Charles Woodson about Michigan not taking the rivalry seriously enough, and you've got a recipe for some summertime drama.

So this week Beau and I talk to Nick Baumgardner from the Detroit Free Press, because he happened to see the whole thing go down personally. We ask Nick how this comment was taken by Harbaugh, and also how important this offseason is for Michigan to get back to form (which, at this point, they kind of have to). Plus! Various Halls of Fame are doing their thing over the summer, and Beau's new radio partner is in on the action, and of course, Ask Us Anything (which we encourage you to do via e-mail and Twitter) helps you pick a dog.

Oh and hey, if you enjoy the show, go ahead and rate and subscribe on iTunes! Finally, a quick programming note: I'm headed out on my honeymoon for the next few weeks, so the Dubcast will be on a brief summer hiatus. We'll be back on June 27th as I regale you with tales of scaling the Matterhorn and giggling at Michaelangelo's David.

0:00 Little Animal does good! James Laurinaitis is in the Ohio State Hall of Fame, and justifiably so. Also, I really don't like most professional Halls of Fame. There. I said it, and I'd say it again if I had to.

11:41 So just what did go down between Harbaugh and Urban? Let's find out from Nick!

25:43 Labs are great, but frankly any adopted dog that's right for your home is a good choice. Adopt adopt adopt. Always adopt.

And that does it for the Eleven Dubcast this week, thanks to Travis for our logo, thanks to you for listening and buying things from our Dry Goods store, and we'll see you in a couple of weeks!
