Summary

Sean and Joey love sports, but they realize there are a lot of dumb elements within our favorite games. And each week, they'll break down one of those dumb things in this tidy, bite-sized podcast. Drop by to hear Sean lament over the stupidity of a certain aspect in sports—basketball, football, baseball, hockey, golf, tennis, volleyball, lacrosse—nothing is off-limits. If there's something dumb to talk about, you better believe we'll hit it. We're also covering some pointless tweets, overused sports cliches, and general news that...well, doesn't need to be news. And we love to hear from you! Give Sean or Joey (or both) a shout with your favorite dumb things.

  • All the NBA Draft Shenanigans R Bad Luck Dumb
    May 12 2026

    The fate of the NBA relies on some ping pong balls! Another NBA Draft lottery is in the books, and once again, a process that should take two minutes to reveal has been drawn out into a full half hour. Incoming rookies sit in silence while analysts talk about their games right in front of them. Teams bring representatives who look like they'd rather be anywhere else. It's all quite silly!

    Plus, adventures with meat, another Star Fox video game reboot, and Sean gets so mad about YouTube ads that he accidentally mutes himself. Remember when times were simpler?

  • A Post-Vacation Sports Jamboree!
    May 5 2026

    Joey is back from vacation in Poland, and he even played some sports while he was there. Meanwhile, Sean is in the midst of hockey season and has been moved to defense because no one else on his team is capable.

    Plus, a barrage of sports updates from the NBA and NHL playoffs, as well as wild developments across the NCAA. And we're breaking down the most memorable levels from the GoldenEye video game.

  • A Very Un-Sportsmanlike Sports R Dumb
    Apr 28 2026

    This might set a record for the least amount of time talking about sports! We're covering the absolute worst karaoke song to sit through, a barrage of game shows (including the best games to play on The Price is Right), and ponder whether dinosaurs are dragons.

    But for our classic sports fanatics, we do still have a few good moments. We're chatting volleyball and Sean powering through multiple 10K runs. At least he didn't see a bright light this time.
