From playing Zelda as a kid to binge-watching "Stranger Things" as a superstar for the U.S. Women's National Team and FC Kansas City, BECKY SAUERBRUNN loves all things sci-fi and fantasy. At 38:15, we break down her faves, from a love/hate relationship with "Ender's Game" to excitement for the "Ready Player One" movie to who she's rooting for on "Game of Thrones." Plus we go deep on when White Iverson met Real Iverson ... and it was awkward.

Guten tag! Longtime New England Patriots stalwart SEBASTIAN VOLLMER went from being a swimmer in Germany to an All-Pro tackle in America. We trace (starting 26:00) his origins back overseas and talk about the cultural differences between Europe and here. Then (46:30) we go deep on Marshawn Lynch's inexplicable music video with Train. Yes, Train.

ESPN's J.A. Adande is taking his talents to North Beach. If by "north" you mean "just north of Chicago" and by "beach" you mean the shores of Lake Michigan. The NBA expert talks (20:00) about his decision to return to Northwestern to helm the school's sports journalism program -- and he defends this new generation of punk kids! And then (54:00) we talk to pro lacrosse player Paul Rabil about his new podcast on the start-up culture of sports.

Esquire writer LUKE O'NEIL breaks down the lightning rod that is the Boston sports scene, and then talks about his passion for emo music. Then, Gareth and Brad go deep on the most famous NBA conspiracy theories, from the "iced envelope" to the "MJ gambling ban" to the post-Decision Draft. Do YOU believe? (Cue X-Files theme music.)

Snowboarding icon and Olympic gold medalist KELLY CLARK is great on the slopes, but even better over a table saw. She opens up (15:00 mark) about her passion for making custom furniture, her modern style, and her love of "Fixer Upper" and HGTV. Then, the gang goes deep on "Above the Rim," Tupac's greatest performance ... besides faking his own death.

Olympic gold medalist swimmer LILLY KING is an outspoken champion in the pool ... and a huge Harry Potter fan out of the water. At 20:30, we break down the books vs. movies, the art of re-reading a novel, and how top athletes relate to the most famous figure in the wizarding world. Then, on the heels of "Girls" making up a "White Men Can't Jump" musical, we do our best to cast that faux Broadway show.

BREK SHEA of MLS's Vancouver Whitecaps FC and the USMNT joins the pod to talk about his love of painting, his colorful and vibrant style, and how much it sucks to have to toss a bunch of art supplies at the border. Then, Brad and Adam go deep on some of the best athlete cameos in music videos, from shirtless Magic to "Jay Z-racing" Danica to a "drama-loving" Jerry Stackhouse.

KAVITHA DAVIDSON may be the only ESPN employee to ever study music with freaking Juilliard! (Unless Gruden is holding out on us.) We discuss her love of jazz, underrated classical composers, cultural appropriation, Sousa marches - and how much better at trumpet she is than Brad. Also, Adam and Brad debate Michael Jackson's "good bad" songs. "Rump Shaker," and Brad's dreadful iTunes "most played."

MONICA ABBOTT has a million dollar arm ... but she's not done fighting. The fast-pitch softball icon, who recently inked a deal that made her the highest paid U.S. women's team sports athlete, talks to us (25:00) about the issues women face in the push for equal pay in and out of sports. Then (51:00) we go deep on a made-for-TV movie about Michael Jordan ... which makes "Space Jam" look like "Citizen Kane."

How did New York City FC defender ETHAN WHITE spend his offseason? Surveying the field from another angle. The rising MLS star talks (starting 36:30) about his passion for photography and his offseason internship at Players Tribune shooting sports. But first, Brad and Adam break down the wonderful insanity of Kobe Bryant's "Musecage" special on ESPN. Which straight up scared us.
