Executive producer of Harley Quinn and Abbott Elementary Justin Halpern joins Drew and Roth for the saddest event in baseball: The Pathetic-Off! Justin, demoralized by the Padres, challenges Roth, terrorized by the Mets, to decide who has the most upsetting experience rooting for their home team. And at the top, Justin gives us an update on the current state of the WGA strike. And as always, we Remember and Guy and dive into the Funbag!

October 4th! Littlefield! New York City! See Drew and Roth live and in person!

About The Show

From Defector Media: Former Deadspin writers Drew Magary and David Roth should really stick to sports. Sure, their new indie sports podcast will break down the week in sports: the Mets grounding into quadruple plays, NBA players getting testy on the court and horny on Instagram, Bill Belichick cutting 80% of his roster just to keep himself interested, horrifying takes from sports talk radio that need to be broken down, etc. But these two men and their guests will have their fair share of off-the-field issues they’ll also have to address: stupid Funbag questions, bad tweets from bad people, pointless food arguments, and even less. Every week is a VERY long week these days. We could all use a little Distraction. Head to defector.com for more info.
