  • Is this a grift I’m confused

    I love games either names but the short episodes is 7 minutes of content with 7 min of coors light ads. What are we doing here? Are you guys broke?

  • Love Jules and Gronk but…

    … that 15 minute commercial break was a little much.

  • New and Improved

    Having Sam Morril (I think) as cohost wasn’t awful, but distracting guests with C-tier crowd work prevented it from finding its groove. I suggest having season one guests return and cover their games again.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ty Law Stories
Q: What's your best Bill Belichick story?
Ty Law describes the negotiation tension, the restructuring, and how Belichick's approach tested loyalty while ultimately keeping him financially intact, illustrating the push-pull between player value and team cap needs.
Jeff Ross on The Roast of Tom Brady
Q: Why did you decide to do this roast live and push for a big audience?
We wanted to demonstrate that the roast format could be a live, unscripted, and unfiltered experience that drew in diverse viewers and became a catalyst for the genre's momentum going forward.
The Miz on Facing John Cena | Wrestlemania 27
Q: What was the key to handling the pressure of a WrestleMania main event like this?
Preparation and visualization; I go through every scenario before promos or matches, use the energy of the crowd, and rely on the focus built from constant practice to execute under pressure.
The Miz on Facing John Cena | Wrestlemania 27
Q: In one sentence, Miz, why did you pick WrestleMania 27 as your match to discuss?
Because it represented the pinnacle moment of me finally standing as a WWE Champion in the main event, with friends and family in the front row, and it embodied the culmination of a long, hard journey from reality TV to WrestleMania stardom.
Luc Robitaille on the 1993 Conference Finals | Kings vs. Maple Leafs
Q: What made Game 7 stand out to you personally as a player and as a teammate?
The game stood out because Gretzky took over, the team showed unbelievable resilience, and the moment felt like a tipping point for hockey in Los Angeles—the combination of star power, grit, and the dramatic finish made it feel legendary.
