First-timer (and Jeopardy! champion) James Tyler joins the Bench for this Ede-hosted game. In this game, we ask the important question, "Is Four Inches Enough?" We also discuss our favorite constellations, invoke the name of Roy Helu to divine wisdom, brutally misunderstand The Day the Music Died, and Ede asks a question about women's sports! If you're reading this, and John Astin is still alive, let us know. #astinwatch #chunkymahjong #huskybackgammon #dadbodyahtzee #blackhistorymonth

Patreon General Manager Riley Scherer teams up with Josh to take on David and Drew Topp in this Tako-hosted game. In this game, we sample bad Hungarian liquor, invent a new sport: Water Hurdles, and imagine the abomination that is Don King Cobra. And just so it isn't forgotten, Riley knows the sport. #legendsofthehiddentemple #olympics #spellingbee #dodgeball

Scott permanently joins the OT crew and we hope to get back in a monthly routine. But for this episode we discuss: 

EP 289: Clicks are Clicks, Right? (featuring Head Coach Dave Wortz & Assistant Coach Tim Geving)

EP 290: Mitch TrubiSky Dome (feaeturing Assistant Coach Josh Snyder)

EP 291: Pimp My Face (featuring Equipment Manager Yael Wylie)

EP 292: You're the Man Now, Dog! (featuring Jake DeArruda)

First timer (and yet another guest who did better on Jeopardy! than Tako) Jake DeArruda joins for a Scott-hosted game. In this episode, Scott tries to set a record for the longest Curriculum Vitae of all time, Markkus feels young for coaching but old for his body, we discover a sports movie Mason has seen but Markkus has not, Tako shows off his voice acting skills, we find the baseball equivalent of the Chicago Bears all-time quarterbacks list, we remember to wipe before we go to bed, and we think Mason looks like a young Sean Connery. #yourethemannowdog #seabass #yorvittorrealba #oldtomatoface #toomuchboston #avoidpjbrown #timotheechalamet

Firstime guest and Equipment Manager for our Patreon Team Yael Wylie joined the Bench for this Ede-hosted game. In this episode, Ede stumped both teams with his Missing Link (Hint: It was not that they were all running backs or that they're all black), we came to an agreement that there is no such thing as Alvin beans, we reminisced about Hall of Fame pitchers Jack Ass and Milfred Hunter (whose catchphrase was "Keep Pounding!"), we answered the question "What if Josh was one of us?", and Ede introduced us to the first (of many to come) Women in Sports question based on the Secret Santa gift he was given (Thanks David) #harleyquinn #sandiegosuperchargers #runningbacks #alvinbeans #hof #keeppounding #womeninsports #thanksdavid

David hosts this game with Matt D and Mason teaming up to face Markkus and Assistant Coach to our Patreon Team, Josh Snyder. David clearly had returning player Josh in mind when wrote this game, which featured a Dad joke inspired hafltime, and a return of the Missing Limerink.  Mason and Matt tried their best to throw David off his game out of the gate with their team name. David gets his revenge when Mason struggles to pronounce a pre- and post-game answer. The teams also learn some important lessons including that it is difficult to have your head be in Detroit if the rest of you is somewhere else, and even more importantly, a worm is not an arachnid. #mitchtrubisky #skydome #dadjokes #detroit #worm #arachnid

Josh hosts the first recorded game of 2025, and the teams set all kinds of milestones checking in. In this episode, all the players fight the cold weather (especially Tako in mid-50s California). We try and guess Eastern European first names (and are somehow aided by Gilbert Arenas?), create adult film parodies, and talk a lot about meats, including wondering what cut of steak the Donovan cut would be, and fondly remembering NASCAR Champion Big Beef and Phoenix Suns legend Bacon Busch. #percyjackin #armyofthedead #secretoftheooze #snowday                                                 https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint

Walling finally professionally hosts his contractually obligated yearly game pitting Assitant Coach Matt Coleman and Mason vs Markkus and Dougherty. In it, Walling kicks us off with a top tier dad joke, Mason raises some Ds throughout the game, we discuss pricey players and former Yankees, and the players attempt to get inside the mind of an enigma. In spite of all of his efforts to maintain professionalism, Walling breaks Markkus who breaks Walling in return during the third quarter.

In this all-Benchwarmer game hosted by Josh, we discover that old Venezuelans are not Tako's forte, we imagine a world where Alan Rickman played a Batman villain, Ede asks "Is it a stupid face?" and informs us that his dad only watched Hunter and M*A*S*H, we were slightly surprised that Mason has never watched The Goonies, we speculate that Ice Pirates would be a great name for an EDM band and should open for Diplo, and we finally jumped the shark by referring to country singer Mel Tillis. #jumptheshark #thunder #turkeydinnerpotatochips #venezuela #alanrickman #batman #stupidface #hunter #mash #thegoonies #icepirates #diplo #meltillis

David hosts this all-Benchwarmer game that sees Eric Ede team with Matt Dougherty to take on the formidable team of Scott and Mason.  Despite the fact that David is hosting and Ede is playing, David avoids getting fired.  Ede declares that since 2024 has come to an end, he can stop the charade, and he doesn't have to be pro-woman any more.  However, he thinks that Dak Prescott still stinks.  If you are curious about what TV quotes may reference Frank Gore, or what makes Scott conjure the idea of a Nathan's Hot Dog contest with multiple countries, then please have a listen.
