Brackets

We know that baby's-breath is a flower, there are plenty of other options to explore. For instance, what about literal baby's breath and its physical capabilities? What if it was just the name of a cocktail? These questions and more are answered as veteran Bracketologist Sam Otter returns to discuss the merit of decorative vases, fighting with a shrunken version of The Rock, and how easy it is (for some people) to confuse mega church pastors.

You never know when you might learn something new. Like for instance, every so often we have new Bracketologists on the show, one of which is able to explain existential optimism to us, and the other of which is an expert in bizarre Australian popsicles.

The spooky season is here! To celebrate, Brackets is going out to the suggestion graveyard and digging up a few that were gone too soon in order to give them a second chance. That's right, every contender in this episode's bracket is a suggestion that didn't make it out of the FIRST ROUND of its original bracket. Join Zach, Jared, and Adam as they give dead suggestions new life and try to find humor in those that were previously determined not good enough to win even once. Spooky.
