November 28, 2025 Return to the Squircle
Brendon and Ronnie return to the squared circles they love so much, and talk a lot about sumo wrestling and the upcoming Survivor Series. Along the way, the fellas admit they always like to clown on the Mets, go over the late season dramatics brewing in F1, and ponder what they would serve if they did a sumo watching event at home. Brendon is already looking ahead to the next baseball season, went to the city to enjoy Sumo and Sushi, and reveals that his children have favorite WWE wrestlers. Ronnie is excited for Black Friday hockey games, mishears Brendon when he says "Fall Slam," and speculates that John Cena is making a huge change to the WWE as his career is fading out.

November 21, 2025 Sagaris and Grabbin' Bag
Brendon and Ronnie start with an in-depth discussion about the Grand Sumo November Tournament before digging into the grab bag for an array of different topics. Along the way, the fellas are visited by motivational speaker Matt Foley, talk about their favorite YouTube channels, and are still bitter that the Lakers traded away the youth movement of the late 2010s. Brendon really knows his Sumo wrestling, admits he's a nightmare to work with, and calls Dusty Baker a "Dad" manager. Ronnie spent a miserable summer trying to be Hunter S. Thompson, pronounces "yokozuna" three different ways, and thinks something is rotten in the baseball franchise of San Diego.

November 14, 2025 The Hard Facts of Autumn
Brendon and Ronnie are having a post-mortem for the 2025 MLB season, including ANOTHER sports gambling scandal... Along the way the fellas speculate about the confusion that can be caused by donated championship memorabilia meant for teams that lost, balk at the idea that ESPN can have journalistic integrity AND be a sports betting outlet, and can't believe the Mets Mets'ed again... Brendon gets derailed by his cat, found the Giants season to be a frustrating watch, and believes the Mariners might have supplanted the Astros as the Cream of the AL West crop. Ronnie is playing the Immaculate Grid, had higher hopes for the Rockies, and believes we never saw the version of the Dodgers we were all sold.

November 07, 2025 Now That's Ascertainment!
Brendon and Ronnie are talking about the end of the World Series for MLB, and the trade deadline's passing in the NFL. Along the way, the fellas recall how amazing the Kids in the Hall were, are fascinated by the various heritages of MLB players during the World Baseball Classic, and observe how many NFL Trade Deadline names sound like they came from the "East/West Game" Key and Peele sketch. Brendon had a rare meal with his family, is still haunted by Dusty Baker's decisions in the 2002 World Series, and talks a lot about kickers because the game is called, "Football." Ronnie is basking in the Dodgers winning the World Series, thinks that series sweeps are an overall disappointment, and is amazed at how abysmal most of the NFC East has been this season.

October 31, 2025 Eighty-Eight. New Beginnings.
Brendon and Ronnie are celebrating their 88th episode with a partial clip show, and a new beginning for the podcast. Along the way, the fellas talk about hanging out IRL, the NBA's recent high-profile betting scandal, and celebrate the magic of the Utah Mammoth's new mascot. Brendon pitches a Huell Howser-inspired cocktail, wonders aloud about the ability for Shohei Ohtani's former interpreter to defer his sentence, and tells you to "Be a Goldfish" despite his own amazing memory. Ronnie believes that English is a tough language, is still exhausted after an 18 inning World Series game, and finds the NBA's ability to conduct an important investigation to be lacking.

October 24, 2025 Shades of Orange & Shades of Blue
Brendon and Ronnie are talking about the World Series with everything from quick analysis to predictions. But first, the fellas get through the building drama as the F1 season enters the homestretch, and give their thoughts about the San Francisco Giants hiring Tony Vitello as manager. Along the way, Brendon declares himself a temporary fan of the Blue Jays, throws out a conspiracy theory about the Padres's manager opening, and names the rivalry for the Colorado Avalanche and Utah Mammoth. Ronnie attempted to visit an apple tree, floats the idea of Hunter Pence being a manager, and maybe watched the trophy celebrations for the two pennant winners a little too closely.

October 17, 2025 Dr. Gritty and the Electric Mascots
Brendon and Ronnie are back again to finish up their tiered rankings of NHL Mascots. (And one NBA mascot, somehow.) Before it all starts though, the fellas declare the Las Vegas Aces the WNBA's newest dynasty, wonder if the Maple Leafs's Carlton the Bear has done the Carlton dance, and Mark Cuban doth protests too much, they thinks. Brendon likes playing in the end-of-season Parents vs. Kids Little League games, has a hack for cleaning a stuffed animal, and recalls times when Lou Seal would get hyphy and wild. Ronnie gives a special thanks to his cohost, discovers he just likes bear costumes, and thinks Spartacat looks like Justin Turner.

October 10, 2025 How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Badaboum
Brendon and Ronnie take a breath and talk about what's been going on and the MLB Playoffs. Then, with the stakes low at the beginning of the hockey season, they decide to rank the NHL Mascots into tiers. Along the way, the fellas figure out a mascot for the New York Rangers, agree as fans of rival baseball teams, and ponder a tough question regarding dragon anatomy. Brendon is showing his children Kubrick movies, thinks of an old game show when he sees the Blackhawks mascot, and has a very soft spot for the Nordiques's mascot now lost to time. Ronnie introduces a Pink Floyd/movie match-up that ISN'T the one you're thinking of, is a total homer for the mascots of his favorite teams, and discovers that one mascot once had serious beef with famous wrestler CM Punk.

October 03, 2025 Interest, Penalties, and Phee
Brendon and Ronnie STILL have A LOT to talk about! They update their basketball topics from last week, with Pablo Torre and Napheesa Collier each putting pressure basketball commissioners. They also outline and make predictions for the MLB Playoffs and the upcoming NHL Season. Along the way, Brendon puts forward rational choices for the now-vacant manager position in San Francisco, reminds everyone of Marshawn Lynch's iconic Super Bowl Media Day appearance, and can't wait for all the Curling coming in the 2026 Olympics. Ronnie surprises all with the choices of blue teams he makes for the MLB playoffs, explains the strange scoring for games and players in hockey, and believes "Who is this clown?" is an amazing burn.

Brendon and Ronnie have A LOT to talk about! They cover a baseball championship in Oakland, the new rules of the modern MLB, the WNBA Playoffs, and the growing scandal around the L.A. Clippers and superstar Kawhi Leonard. (Big inhale). Along the way, Brendon talks about how stealing is easy in Little League, hints that there may be a second Uncle Dennis involved with Steve Ballmer, and explains to everyone what a LOOGy is. Ronnie appreciates a well-hit bunt, has a new favorite viral clip thanks to Breanna Stewart, and can't seem to remember the opposite of an unmovable object is the unstoppable force.
