This Time for Africa, Madrid Wins + Super Smash Bros Draft

Wed, 05 Jun 2024 09:00:00 -0000

This is episode 2 of our trip across the pond, and we’re currently in Barcelona recording from Parc de Carmel which overlooks the city. On this episode we continue to talk about our travels from Madrid, to Senegal, and then back to Spain to visit Barcelona.

While in Senegal we visited Joe’s brother Bradley, and he took us out to a surf spot that required a boat ride to a surf break off of Ngor Island. We hopped straight off of the boat into the water and didn’t touch land again until the boat picked us up, aside for the quick second that Joe stepped on a rock and was left with a (few) surprise gift(s) from a sea urchin.

We also watched the UEFA champions league final in Dakar, Senegal, which was sweet since soccer is so much more popular there than in the US, but with Real Madrid winning, we did have regrets that we had barely missed out on watching it in Madrid.

Finally we talk about the beginning of our time in Barcelona and compare the cities of Barcelona and Madrid.

Missed Flights, Madeira Island + A Taylor Swift Concert

Wed, 29 May 2024 09:00:00 -0000

On this episode, we talked about the first leg of our trip across the pond traveling to Madeira island and adventuring the coast of Portugal.

The trip started out with a few travel mishaps but we eventually made it to Madeira island, where we tackled hikes to Pico Areeiro (highest point on Madeira) and Pico Rubio, relaxed on Sexial Beach and in the natural pools of Porto Moniz, explored the fanal forest, and took the Achadas Da Cruz cable car down to the isolated coastal village of Fajã da Quebrada Nova.

We also talk about our time in mainland Portugal, where we spent some time in Lisbon and went to a Paramore and Taylor Swift concert before traveling the coastline.

We began our coastal excursion to the town of Nazare which is famous for having the largest rideable waves in the world, which encouraged us to find our own waves further down the Portugal coastline (albeit our waves were far from large). We finished our time in Portugal traveling to the Bengali caves before flying out of Faro to Madrid.

Sports Headlines:

The king, LeBron James scored 40 points on Sunday to join Michael Jordan as the only 2 with multiple 40-point games after turning 39. He also drained 9/10 3s, tying his career high.

Devin Booker dropped 52 against the Pelicans, making it 3 straight games vs New Orleans where he scored 50+

Both NC State and UConn are sending their men’s and women’s teams to the final four. This is the first time 2 schools accomplished this in the same season.

Uconn’s men’s team went on an insane 30-0 run vs Illinois.

Baseball is back! And in the MLB we’ve already had our first no-hitter. On Monday, Ronel Blanco threw a no hitter vs the Blue Jays in his 8th career start. I believe this was the earliest a no-hitter was thrown in an MLB season.

The Pirates and Yankees are both off to a hot 5-0 start. It is the first time since 1992 the Yankees have started off 5-0, and the first time since 1983 for Pittsburgh.

Liberty Media, which owns Formula 1 and the Atlanta Braves, have acquired a majority stake in MotoGP. This deal now has the motorcycle racing circuit valued at $4.5B

In the Premiere League, the top 3 teams stayed the same after Asenal’s and Man City’s 0-0 draw. Right now, Liverpool is in 1st with 67 points and +120 odds, Arsenal is in 2nd with 65 points and +250 odds, and Man City is in 3rd with 64 points but +190 odds.

Brock Purdy got paid! At least some. The NFL and NFL PA negotiated an increase on their Performance Pay-Based System that rewards players with lower salaries who play significant roles for their teams. And as a result, Purdy has nearly doubled his salary thanks to Monday's bonus check of $739,795.

Ohtani in Hot Water, NFL Rule Changes + March Madness

Wed, 27 Mar 2024 17:07:00 -0000

Recorded March 26, 2024 | We’ve got a little basketball, football and baseball for you in this episode. March Madness is delivering its normal mayhem, the MLB’s golden boy, Shohei Ohtani, has found himself caught up in a gambling scandal, and Roger Goodell and the NFL owners have struck again with another money play disguised as “player safety”.

Headlines:

South Carolina's men's team may have faced disappointment with an early exit from the first round, but the women's team emerged victorious, showcasing their dominance with a stunning 88-41 win over North Carolina.

In the NFL, significant rule changes were on the agenda. Owners voted to ban the controversial "hip-drop tackle" and also implemented a new kickoff rule, promising to shake up the dynamics of the game.

International soccer witnessed an exhilarating showdown as the USMNT staged a remarkable comeback against Jamaica, securing a thrilling 3-1 win in extra time with a dramatic equalizer in the 95th minute.

Across the globe, the Dodgers and Padres clashed in the Seoul series held in South Korea. While the Dodgers claimed victory in game 1 with a 5-2 score, the Padres bounced back to win game 2 in a high-scoring affair, showcasing the depth of talent in both teams.

NFL fans were in for a surprise as L'Jarius Sneed, a standout cornerback, was traded from the Chiefs to the Titans. Tennessee's plan to secure him with a lucrative contract signaled a significant move in the league's defensive landscape.

In the NBA realm, Kevin Durant made headlines by surpassing Shaquille O'Neal to claim the eighth spot on the all-time scoring list, setting his sights on Wilt Chamberlain's record next.

Episode 58 is all about Super Bowl 58. Wish we were smart enough to plan it that way, but we couldn’t execute that Taylor Swift level plan even if we thought of it.

Lions Advance to NFC Championship, Niners Break Shanahan’s Streak, Playoff Pat + Dream Defense Draft

Tue, 23 Jan 2024 10:00:00 -0000

Recorded January 22, 2024 | It was a thrilling divisional round in the NFL, and we’re here to share our thoughts and reactions. It’s tough to be a bills fan, and Patrick Mahomes is really good. And in the playoffs he’s really really really good. The lions are heading to the NFC championship for the first time in 33 years. The Niners rallied for a 4th quarter comeback against the Packers to end Shanahan’s dreadful 0-31 streak when trailing by 5 or more heading into the 4th quarter. Without Deebo… And in the rain. The Ravens defense is ELITE and Lamar Jackson quieted the critics who ever questioned his playoff abilities. Then finally, we draft our dream defense out of current NFL players.

Wyndham Clark Wins the 2023 US Open, US Soccer + Best Summer Activities

Tue, 20 Jun 2023 09:00:00 -0000

Wyndham Clark edges out Rory for his first major championship and keeping Rory’s drought alive. Despite top names in the final two pairings and record setting rounds, this US Open was underwhelming. Los Angeles Country Club brought one of the lowest attendances, and a rather quiet Sunday afternoon. On the bright side, Rickie Fowler set the US Open record for most birdies (which almost every golf fan was pumped to see him playing well). Also in US news, US soccer might be in the best position it’s ever been. We’ve also got baseball talk, a good Florida man challenge and a draft of the best summer activities.
