  • 1986 NBA Draft
    Aug 29 2024

    The 1986 NBA Draft is one of the great what-if drafts of all-time. And while it is mostly remembered today for tragic reasons--the premature death of Len Bias and the squandered potential of Chris Washburn and Roy Tarpley--there were a lot of interesting contributors. So we shook up the formula a little bit. This time, instead of drafting the best available players with no consideration for the draft order, the boys are putting on their GM hats (GMs almost never wear hats, I'm pretty sure, at least not while they're working) and selecting on behalf of the top eight pick holders in the draft. Also we talked about Richard Petty's mayonnaise and black pepper sandwich for some reason.

  • The Hottest Presidents Draft
    Aug 24 2024

    It is very likely that in five months, we will either have our first woman president or our second president elected to non-consecutive terms. In either case, it makes the premise we're doing here feel uncomfortable. Like, is it less respectful to call Kamala Harris hot or not hot? They both seem bad in different ways. Also, the non-consecutive terms thing annoys me for apolitical reasons, as I get into during this episode.

    We brought back resident Weird Draft Participant Tyler Cox and took turns drafting all 45 presidents by hotness. We also discuss the favorite movies of presidents and for some reason I bring up three separate songs by the 1990s--let's get back to this part--band Presidents of the United States of America. Are they a power pop band? A pop-rock band? An alternative rock band? Heck, on the basis of "Lump", a grunge band? I don't know. Cool songs, though.

  • 2011 NFL Draft
    Aug 14 2024

    Man, remember 2011? Well, you probably do, it was only 13 years ago. Though I guess if you're like a college freshman you probably barely remember it. My God, how young of listeners do we have? In a macro sense, neither of the hosts of this show are "old" but we are old in spirit, even though we spent the first segment of this episode roasting by far the youngest person alive to have ever been president for being a corny old man.

    Anyway, we redrafted the 2011 NFL Draft. It was a really good one! Well, the draft was. The episode might be good, I'm not sure. That's up to you to decide I guess.
