Hello listeners! After the smashing success of the Barbie movie we know that Hollywood is going to learn one valuable lesson from this, that they should give talented filmmakers full creative control of well known properties to make interesting takes on th... oh wait, no, they're going to greenlight hundreds of movies based on toys.

One. Hundred. Episodes! That's right listeners, we've done 100 drafts so we're coming in strong with a callback to our very first episode. Well, not that strong considering we spend four minutes up top talking about pillows but if you want to skip the pillow talk yo can always hit the timecodes! In our first episode we drafted U.S. presidents and put them into a 3-on-3 basketball tournament. Of course, using U.S. presidents meant we had an all-male tournament so we decided to flip the scale and produce an all-female basketball tournament by drafted female world leaders throughout history. Which leading ladies did we find that could produce on the court? How much harder was this to research than the presidents? Listen in and find out!
