050 - Brackets of the Galaxy
Hooked on a bracket! Ba da na na! Nando and DJ bring Nick Porcaro on for his incredible third appearance! We go through our Final Four results for the Best Sports Movie Villain bracket and reveal the final two competitors! But mostly, we talk about Guardians of the Galaxy! Spoilers abound! Nick thought Captain America 2 was better than Avengers! I know, right? We also speak with a certain mad Titan who is looking for magic rocks or something. Who cares? Can you believe Porcaro didn't think Avengers was the best one? Also, isn't Poprika great? Listen to that too.

MBS 048 - Eye of the Bracket
This week's show sounds like a damn monster movie! We have both DiCola brothers Frank and Paul. Frank is the game designer and Paul is the Frozen fanatic. (He has other interests.) We eliminate eight competitors in our Best Sports Movie Villain to reveal our Elite Eight. There are some big surprises and then there are the Monstars who continue to steamroll the competition. We also have musical Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed to talk about their experiences and sing us a few songs from their legitimately cool and awesome musical. Finally we complain about girl Thor. What a show!

MBS 047 - Air Bud: Bracket Hound
Y'all ready for this? We can answer that for you. No you are not. This week we invite Jay and engineer Cori onto the show to talk sports movies. Jay has seen at least three. We go over the results of the first round of voting on our Best Sports Movie Villain. Tears are shed. Friends become enemies. Enemies become friends. We also invite a wild and crazy guest who may have some insight into the most contentious match-up of the round. PS After the episode ends listen to our commentary on the trailer for - and we're not joking about this - the Air Bud space movie.
