    Hello listeners! We here at What's On Draft have been enjoying the Rings of Power, which has got us thinking about Middle-earth.

So in this episode we're drafting a character dungeons and dragons style, picking our attributes, equipment, and a traveling companion before we switch things up and draft a villain for each other to fight. Which character would survive their battle? Listen in and let us know what you think!

        • 88: What Would Be the Most Exciting College Football Conferences?

          Hello listeners! The college football season is upon us and wild as usual, but in the background of all the action on the field is the growing changes to the sport brought on by conference realignment. With many long-standing rivalries about to be broken up and college non-revenue sports teams sent flying across the country just because the football teams could make a buck. Which got us thinking... could we do a better job? So in this episode guest Nate returns to the show and we're drafting new conference rivalries so that we all end the draft with conferences of 10 teams each. Which league would you be the most excited to watch? Listen in and let us know!

              • 87: Which Places Are Cool During Summer?

                Join us this week to learn how to Beat the Heat! This summer was a hot one and we wondered where we should travel for some much needed relief. For this draft, if you manage to pick a place with a low temperature, you are rewarded points which can be cashed in for prizes at the end. But beware, if a warm location is drafted, WHAMMY! You lose points and chances to purchase items to keep cool. Michael organized this draft and Paul, Alana, and Cameron put their geography knowledge to the test!

                                                      Hello listeners! This week we're celebrating the forthcoming nuptials of Michael by thinking about weddings. Specifically, we're looking at ways people around the world have weddings figured out better than the U.S. and drafting five traditions each that we think U.S. wedding celebrations should adopt. With no double-drafting of countries we end the draft with fifteen traditions from fifteen different countries - listen in and tell us which lineup you think would be the most fun to experience!
