Isolation Ep #2: One Glorious Week of AFL, then Chaos.
As COVID-19 continues to bring our world to a halt, we keep trying to do a sports podcast in an age of no sports. Results are appropriately chaotic, even if still a lot of fun. A first time as we have a four-person pod with Dave, Shea, Vince & Matt all on board! - We do start with sports chat, as we briefly discuss the glorious week of Australian footy action right before hard quarantine measures truly hit Australian shores. Vince watched more than most Australians. - Chat then moves to the more serious questions of just when will we see these leagues come back, if ever - as well as the financial implications for leagues, particularly the AFL & NRL in Australia looking at some extreme measures to try and keep their leagues afloat. - Then the chaos reigns. Beer pong against ourselves. Live from Owen's bar. How we're dealing with our isolation, the beers, the wines, the tv shows. Stick with us, there's some good banter and info in there somewhere. I think. What do you call tiny bottles of alcohol? You'll find out. That's content, people. I say grab a beer and join us every week, but this time it is absolutely essential.

Isolation Ep. #1: Sport Stops, COVID-19 Grips, Patriots Still Dominate Headlines
A lot has changed since we last did this. Oil is precious. Denzel is blind and carrying a bible around the wasteland. Mel Gibson is chasing criminals through the Australian outback. Tom Brady is still breaking hearts. As the very serious COVID-19 pandemic brings the world to a grinding halt, in an SG first we get Dave, Shea and Vince all on the same pod for a social distancing FaceTime roundtable on all things sports and life over the last week and a half. - The week since the catalyst of NBA suspension, everything that has happened in our lives since. - Tom Brady decides NOW is a good time to leave the Pats. Of course. - The tragedy of NCAA cancelling the rest of this year, both for basketball and the Spring sports athletes. - Just what do all the sports do to finish their seasons, and Dave posits the idea that maybe it is the next season that hasn't been played that should be voided rather than a season 3/4 through. - What can we bet on now? Australian Football is still running, or we bet on the Mad Max apocalypse. Crack a can and quarantine with us. We might be sane still.

Man City BREXIT, MLB Getting Dirty, Oregon Ducks Season Review w/ Vince
Vince is back on the SG Pod finally, and we get to mix it up with some breaking news as well as some reminiscing of the last 6 months of our sports worlds. - Breaking hours before we recorded was the news that Man City have joined the Brexit movement, though they didn't vote for this one. UEFA have handed down a 2-year ban to the Citizens for FFP breaches - a story that will surely continue over the coming months. - The cheating scandal in MLB won't go away, as the opposition of the Astros intensifies with high profile players calling them and the league out for their bullish stances. - We review our alma maters season as the Oregon Ducks Football program returned to national relevance in 2019, and Vince met a Ducks fan at the Rose Bowl that proved the world can be incredibly small sometimes! - A little bit of Liverpool & EPL chat to finish off the pod on a real positive note for both of us - soz Shea. Grab a beer, clean up your shell accounts, and settle back and chill with us.

Shea & Dave back at it with their thoughts on the Super Bowl, and everything else happening in the sports world - plus our predictions for the Oscars! - Super Bowl chat (after Shea checks his Bobblehead emails) as we discuss how the game kinda played to the formula we had predicted - for both teams. - After some brief chat about why Goldberg has hit hard times post Mighty Ducks, we chat about the continued scandal in baseball while talking about Mookie Betts pending (at the time of recording) trade to LA. - Some EPL chat as we talk about how the rest of the season may play out as Liverpool battle on multiple fronts with a handy league lead. - NBA chat as we talk Blazers minor recovery as well as Lillard and his MVP chances. - OSCARS! We also love movies so we chat briefly with the Oscars on a couple days after recording this one. A real fun one, good beer chat which is exactly why we do this pod. Crack one, join us.

RIP Kobe Bean Bryant
There is no way to summarize an episode that began within the hour of learning that Kobe Bryant had tragically passed far too soon. We were planning to record regardless, & we dive into a pod as best we can with this weighing heavy on our hearts. - After a little bit too long of an intro by Dave, Shea & Dave crack into our reaction to the shocking news of Kobe Bryant's passing. Other names were not known at time of recording, but our equal love and heartbreak go out to Gianna Bryant, John Altobelli, Keri Altobelli, Alyssa Altobelli, Sarah Chester, Payton Chester, Christina Mauser, & Ara Zobayan. RIP. - After working through the Kobe news, we get into what we had planned which was some Super Bowl preview chat. Our thoughts on the matchup, how the Chiefs & 49ers got there, & how we think the match might flow. - Lastly, we continue talking about the ongoing cheating scandal rocking Major League Baseball. No matter what the MLB says, this story just isn't going away, & the players are starting to really speak out. - BONUS: Kobe's final game speech is at the end of this pod. All rights reserved to the broadcaster, ESPN, & affiliates. This was a tough one. Tell your loved ones you love them. Stay SportsGasmic.
