On this special bonus mini-episode, we discuss America's pastime: baseball! We begin with the Chicago Cubs crazy history, then talk about stats (what the heck is an ERA exactly?) and then the wild card format. Is a one game wild card really that fair? And should playoffs be 5 series or 7 series? Listen as we swing for the fences (but settle for a double) on this bonus Up For Debate!

On this episode we conduct another one of our creative challenges: we make a game! Matt tries to make the longest game board ever, we share why The Game of Life is such weak sauce, and end up not really creating a board game at all.

On this haphazard episode of Up For Debate, we begin by talking about the excitement of space travel and the dangers of riding on the Magic School Bus. Then we get to the "meat" of the program by discussing sandwiches! What exactly is a sandwich? What's the most popular sandwich? How can Matt and Shaun innovate the next generation of sandwiches? It's an episode best enjoyed between two slices of bread...
