The Jerks recap the NBA Finals, analyze the upcoming Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight and discuss UCF’s kicker’s NCAA woes because of his YouTube success. Plus, DC’s reaction to Wonder Woman’s box office numbers, Chris Evans signing up for more Captain America adventures, and what the guys are reading this week. Bonus: Find out how Nightwing’s circus background comes into play, and try to decipher why (We couldn’t).

We’re back! We hit the ground running with our breakdown of the NBA and NHL final series, Mr. Met’s recent incident, plus our reviews of MegaCon Orlando and Star Wars Celebration Orlando (and conventions in general), and our reaction to Wonder Woman. It’s not the reunion the world needs, but the one it deserves!

The guy you love from Faith & Fear In Flushing co-hosts a podcast about the Mets and about Star Wars with the guy you hate from Mets Police. This week, we catch up on the latest in Queens, then a walk through TIME magazine’s Top 40 Star Wars scenes reveals just how awesome an actor Mark Hamill is, and why Jason is to this podcast what Ron Darling is to the Mets booth.
