A Bit Niche

OUR FIRST INSTALLMENT OF ITTY BITTY NICHE. These minisodes have the same razzle dazzle as your usual full-length A Bit Niche episodes and, in many instances, will be the same length as a regular episode (we cannot shut up). So it's the same, but different.

For the first minisode, Max shares one of his favorite shows, Bar Rescue, hosted by the king himself, Jon Taffer. We hope you watch this podcast episode on Spotify Video or YouTube for the full experience and to see the clips we discuss.

Everybody get your paws in! This week's episode covers a slam dunk movie… Air Bud! We discuss the feel good story of water boy turned bball star, Josh (Jim) Framm, and his baller pup, Buddy.

Air Bud is an asset on and off the court. Incredible Defense, a strong offensive weapon, and the type of culture building player every coach wants. In this episode, the Jim’s down at the A Bit Niche Sports station break down the Timberwolves road to victory, lead by none other than the good boy, Bud.

A huge thank you to the A Bit Niche Sports analysts, Jim Sprinkle(s) (Max Carter), Jim Pepper(s) (Karsten Bailey), and Jim Gym (Logan Cooney) for your color commentary. Your bowl cuts and ball knowledge is world class.

Thank you to Monica for selecting our first Listener’s Choice film! In this episode, we explore the enchanting world of Ever After: A Cinderella Story. The movie that proves Cinderella doesn’t need a fairy godmother (unless it’s Leonardo DaVinci)… or a man. Forget fairy tales—we’re here for a Cinderella who serves looks and delivers one-liners sharp enough to cut glass [slippers].

Today, we celebrate love by diving deep into the 2010 romantic comedy, Valentine's Day! Although we didn’t love this film, we enjoyed discussing the one million story lines. We could have used more of George Lopez and Queen Latifah though. Things really get interesting when we discuss our personal Valentine’s Day experiences– incredible gifts, break ups, and… jail time?!
