Hot Diggity Dog! Our Independence Day Special
Saturday Jul 01, 2023
Saturday Jul 01, 2023
What could be more American than a juicy, delicious hot dog? … what about 76 of them one after another? We fire up the grill on NATHAN’S FAMOUS HOT DOG EATING CONTEST, held annually every July 4th and broadcast on ESPN. Often called the super bowl of competitive eating, this tournament attracts the leading eaters from around the world. But is it really a sport? And are the participants really athletes? Our esteemed guests are two 10+ year judges of this holiday event, Rob From The Upper East Side, and Jason From Long Island, to help us peel back the aluminum foil on the most exciting 10 minutes in all of sports.

Monday Jun 05, 2023
If you thought the zombie genre had finally faded away, you were mistaken I'm afraid. The recent giant success of the HBO series, “The Last of Us” (40M viewers/episode in US alone) demonstrates the zombie franchise is as strong as ever. Ellie, Thad, and Bernice take giant bites into the intestines of the bizarre global obsession with these undead cannibals and what accounts for their astonishing longevity in popular culture.
Enjoy the creepy and very funny cold open! Fans of the pod will recognize Scandal Sheet co-founder, Kassia, making one of her ‘drop in’ appearances.

Spring Suicide Squad - Full Episode
Thursday May 11, 2023
Thursday May 11, 2023
Each year, thousands of men and women from around the globe flock to the Himalaya and the Karakoram in order to climb the world’s tallest mountains. Despite being aware of a fatality rate as high as 29% (depending on the mountain), amateur climbers are willing to hand over $65K-$150K to “professional” guiding services to hopefully get them to the summit and back in one piece. While storms and avalanches at these elevations cannot be controlled, overcrowding can. Human traffic jams leading to these summits are directly responsible, or complicit, in causing high rates of death and injury. This year, 2023, more people have purchased permits to climb these 14 mountains than in any other year in history…

REPLAY: The Mets Mob Save Baseball !!!
Monday Mar 27, 2023
Monday Mar 27, 2023
As a warm-up to Major League Baseball’s OPENING DAY we wanted to re-share his extremely popular 2 part cold open from last year. Remember last year (2022) at this time? The baseball owners had “locked out” the players from all parks and negotiations on a new labor contract had reached a standstill. Our frequent guests, the beloved New York City trio – the METS MOB – were forced to take matters into their own hands by KIDNAPPING the Commissioner of MLB Baseball. As a result, the owners finally caved, a good contract was signed, and a general strike was averted. Thanks MOB! Relive the thrilling days of yesteryear and get psyched for a new baseball season!
A BRAND NEW MLB 2023 PREVIEW EPISODE featuring THE MOB is coming up in just a few days. Even if you don’t love baseball - you won’t want to miss this one.
If you wish to reach Mets Mob member (and multi-year NYC Super Lawyer), David Grover, for personal injury, including auto accidents and slip and fall free consultations.: 212-527-7575, DGrover@GroverFen.com.

Handsome Rob, the third of the trio, is just … “too sexy” for this podcast. Somehow, we got him to participate anyway. He plays James Bond here.
Our co-host, Ellie, plays Commissioner, Rob Manfred, in drag. (Don’t ask. Just go with it …)
The amazingly versatile pod actresses, Jill Grover and Lisa Hauptman, play multiple roles. My “Scandel Sheet” co-founder, Kassia Oset, has a notable cameo as the famous Bond character, “M”.
