Welcome to the very first episode of The Bucket Problem, presented to you by Homefield Apparel. Your host, Ace Anbender, introduces thebucketproblem.com and his co-hosts: Alex Cook, Connor Southard, and Dan [REDACTED TO PROTECT FROM RCMB OPERATIVES]. We discuss the ethos of the site, outline what “bucket/problem theory” entails, encourage listeners to harass our only sponsor, and choose our vibes of the week. Topics/tangents include: out collective Michigan-ness, the football program’s recent dearth of buckets, Ben Simmons, a top-tier genre of highlight tape, and existential dread. Is the entire show derailed within two seconds? Tune in!
