The Kicker Podcast: A Sports - Comedy Show

Two things are certain this time of year: the Patriots will be in the Super Bowl, and Rob will delusionally think the Jets are there instead. What's left to say about Brady and Co at this point?? Rob and Dave say all of it. Also, some tennis discussion about who has the highest highs of the men's Big Three. There's some major Harden love and hateration as he continues his scoring tornado. But most importantly, stick around for the end. Or skip to the end, we're not your nannies. But Dave goes on a parenting rant the likes of which we have not seen. It has nothing to do with sports, other than his rageful passion matched only by MJ's flu game.

Rob and Dave are back with an old standby: the improvised sports TV pilot idea. It's "Pitch" meets "The Replacements" meets "Draft Day" with a whole bunch of other weird stuff thrown in there. And if you'd like to steal it, the guys kindly ask that you don't? Honor system, folks.  Plus, Dave has the drop on an epic reverse jinx to make sure the Chiefs crap the bed, and Rob is a firm believer that everyone in the NFC is a big old fraud.  There's a bit of tennis legend talk, but mostly, it's just an improvisation away from selling an idea to CBS and insta-fame. Join us!

Remember the Titans? Well, Rob and Dave do. They welcome in the New Year starting with the College Football Championship, and Clemson's blowout win led by Trevor "Sunshine" Lawrence. Also, get ready for some hot takes with the NFL playoffs. Will Andrew Luck's blue collar QB play be enough to take down Patrick Mahomes' flashy game? Dave thinks so.  Lastly, Rob has some weird info to reveal about the anatomy of Rams coach Sean McVay. It's...weird.

The Patriots' run is OFFICIALLY over. LeBron, Lonzo, AND a mystery guest had an unprecedented triple-triple-double on the Lakers. And Dave has finally settled on the best quarterback in the league. No spoilers, but it's definitely Josh Allen.    Plus, there's some ranting about Christmas music, the Eagles have an insane new nickname, Dave makes Rob VERY uncomfortable with some new basketball terminology, and Rob is calling out all future generations of fact-checkers in a new segment called "Your new baby means NOTHING to me, Krahn."   Yup, it's nothing but love and happiness on this holiday special episode of TKP!!

If you re-drafted this season, who would be the top five quarterbacks? If the ball family got a spin off, who would be the star? If Dave could coach the Patriots, what would be the all-time super duper crazy insane fantasy play that would never actually happened but that we can still dream about happening? All these questions and more get answered in the most recent edition of the Kicker Podcast. Oh, and what would this episode be without a major self-effacing callback to the worst fantasy football loss in TKP history... via an online quiz game???

Rob and Dave are digging in to this week's best (primarily football) sports stories, including the way that Eli Manning has learn how to bend the spacetime continuum when throwing passes this year.    Also, they talk about how Bill Belichick's nefarious plans to take over the NFL over the next 60 years factors into the Packers' big decision, now that Mike McCarthy has been shown the cheesy Wisconsin door.   And speaking of Wisconsin... there's some... COLLEGE FOOTBALL TALK?? That's right! Rob and Dave have both, independently, consumed several, that's right several, halves of compelling NCAA football recently. And just like Charles Barkley during the NCAA Tournament every March, they've got some VERY strong opinions based on very little than the very recent eye test.    Make sure to subscribe on iTunes to get every TKP episode!!!

WE'RE BACK! So many things are going wrong in the NFL right now: Jon Gruden's losing control of the Raiders, lies are swirling around the Cleveland Browns head coach interviews, and NATHAN PETERMAN is still in consideration to play in the NFL! Listen as Rob and Dave ponder on that mystery.

Sometimes, the news stories just conspire in the world to create a special day where Rob and Dave have something very passionate to say about everything. This is one of those days.    Dave gets VERY excited to bash a certain player on the Celtics (!?!?), and Rob has a whole lot of thoughts on his best friend/younger brother/favorite nephew LaMelo Ball finally being released from his Lithuanian gulag.    Plus, the All-Star draft will be televised!! It's truly a dream come true banner day

While Rob has been off being a movie star Dave fixed the NFL's QB problem. If you're tired of seeing Nathan Peterman, Brock Osweiler, or whoever the heck is starting for the 49ers right now, then listen to this episode! Let's fix the NFL QB problem once and for all. Oh, also Rob is starring in a movie and he may have gone all "Hollywood" on us. (For anyone experiencing issues downloading new episodes directly from Facebook, make sure to go to iTunes and SUBSCRIBE so each new episode gets downloaded directly) Lastly...GO VOTE!!!

Word on the street is that Kevin Durant is going to the Knicks next season. So Rob and Dave put their incredible brains together to improvise what a "Durant to the Knicks" movie would look like. Spoiler Alert: David Fizdale will yell at many people, and the new Knicks may go over Niagra Falls! This movie WILL be made. Hear it here first.

It's a little bit of everything today. A smorgasbord, if you will, of topical sports news. LeBron's Lakers stumbling out of the gate, the Red Sox being the most fun team to root for, and even a little update on everything that LaVar, Lonzo, and LiAngelo Ball have been up to. There might even be a little millionaire matchmaking taking place?   Oh, and the biggest Fantasy Football controversy ever... caused by Dave, and Rob is just READY to jump at the chance to call him out. Stick around for the end, because Rob is really trying to incite the internet into a letter writing campaign condemning his terrible behavior.

Yeah, it's episode 100, and since Rob and Dave put out one episode every 10 years, that means they're both at least 1,000 years old. Math!   But as such, it's time to sit back and figure out -- what are the ten "cranky old man sports takes" that you actually believe in? Any sport, any aspect of the sport, could be on the court or off. But what turns two men in their thirties (okay, we were lying about the thousand year old thing) into New York Post curmudgeons?   Find out here on the Kicker Podcast!

Guys, they really tried. They really, really did. Astros versus Red Sox, one baseball fan and one decidedly non-baseball fan gave it their all, and they learned a thing we'd kind of always assumed: baseball is a LOT of dead time.    Does the conversation descend into a cantankerous discussion of why lefties can't beat the shift and a healthy does of Rob's Lando Calrissian impression? Yes it does. And this is in the middle of a one-run playoff game. We shudder to imagine what might go down between these two during a 9-2 laugher in the middle of July.    In short, please hire these two men to be your local team's play-by-play guys. Let's make baseball super weird. 

Well, we can put that experiment to bed.    You know, like every NFL fan who can speak in full sentences, Rob and Dave have long thought that they could do play-by-play better than the jamokes who are actually on television. That they'd be funnier and more insightful and just a hell of a lot more entertaining.   Well... you be the judge. They do the first quarter of the marquee matchup between the Chiefs and Patriots, and I think we all learn something about ourselves in a very short amount of time. 

We're talking Red Sox sexiness in beating the Yankees. Jamaal Charles making every 31 year old on the planet feel super old. And of course, the descent of UFC into one notch above the WWE, the way it was kind of always destined to be. That's right, it's time for another edition of all-in/not a fan. Rob and Dave are diving super deep into the front page of most major sports web sites to select the biggest, weirdest, and let's be honest, funniest stories from the week.

The one we've all been waiting for. Can LeBron make the Lakers a contender? Can Melo gel with The Beard? Will Derrick Rose ever retire? All these questions, and a few more that no one is asking, will finally be answered.

Okay, we're really sorry, but the first ten minutes of this podcast are just Rob and Dave getting super angry at each other about a MAJOR FANTASY FOOTBALL CONTROVERSY. We know, we know, you don't care about anyone else's league, but really, everyone's souls are at stake here. Feel free to skip past this if you're just here for the hoops.    But then we get into which teams have a chance of making noise in the East (read: basically none of them if you don't have Kawhi or Jayson Tatum) on your team), which teams are going to joyfully stink, and which teams are just super happy to get a playoff seed between #4 and #7 for the next 100 years.    And we'll be doing the Western Conference teams next, so look out for that. But darnit, Dave just can't stop salivating about Luka Doncic. So much great hoops to look forward to!!

Oh yeah, it's time for your classic mid-week news dump. Some storylines from around the NBA and NFL. We're talking Le'Veon Bell (finally coming back). We're talking LeBron (what sort of year is he going to have? Because he's going to intentionally score about 8 points per game.)    We're even talking some baseball (what??) led by Rob (WHAT??!??!), who has a simply delightful story that almost sounds like product placement. All this and more on The Kicker Podcast, where you can always rely on Rob and Dave to kick things off with a fierce debate about the difference between "fall" and "autumn."

If you're one of those sports fans that thinks the NCAA is just perfect and nothing about it could be better, then maybe this episode just ain't for you. But if you're one of the 99.99% of fans who enjoy college sports to some degree but wish there were a bit less guilt or shenanigans associated with it, then this IS for you!   We're addressing scoring systems, overtime procedures, and of course, the outrageous pay of the coaches in juxtaposition to the inrageous pay of the students.   Is "inrageous" even a word? Of course not. But the pay of the students is certainly the polar opposite of the pay for the coaches, so we thought we'd have some fun with pre-fixes.    And if you have any ideas on how to fix the NCAA further (or fix our fixes), you can ALWAYS drop us a line at Facebook.com/officialthekicker.   And thanks as always to MyBookie.ag for keeping the lights on around here! It's an audio podcast, but there are still lights used occasionally. 

Have you ever heard a man who has just been beaten by life? Well now you have. Dave has taken this loss to the Detroit Lions hard, and it's leading to all sorts of stress eating and Belichick conspiracies that take back all the way to 2001.    Plus! Some more uplifting NFL stories, like the ascension of Pat Mahomes (and his new weird-as-hell nicknames) leading the best offense in all of football. And they're not even the best team in football! That would be the Buffalo Williamses. With unbeatable Josh Allen at the helm.   It's an all-football podcast for your NFL junkies, with a startling amount of CFL talk sprinkled in.

This is not a drill, people. We got it.    As soon as we learned the LeBron James (yes, THE LeBron James) was teaming up with the greatest young director in Hollywood to make "Space Jam 2", the good folks at The Kicker Podcast reached out to see if we could get an advance copy.    And you know something? They emailed it over in 30 seconds. So nice of them.    So now, Rob and Dave read through the script, adding a few editorial notes along the way, but really, it's a pretty perfect first draft. Shawn Bradley is prominently involved, and Patrick Ewing is very minimally involved. But LeBron is up for the acting challenge of his life in this (VERRY R-RATED) update of a 1990s cinema classic. 

They say you shouldn't overreact to what happens early in an NFL season.   Rob and Dave say screw all of that. Today, they are taking the best and biggest and funniest storylines of the season and extrapolating them out into the biggest possible insane threads they can be.    Josh Gordon is better than Randy Moss in 2007? Aaron Rodgers is a character in "Ready Player One"? Pat Mahomes will be so good his nickname will be a government agency??   It's all impossible, but then again, it's the NFL, where everything is possible. Except Fitzpatrick becoming the MVP.

Improvising sports movies? Rob and Dave have been there and done that. It's time to dip their comedic toes into new water, by building out a brand new sports comedy TV show in which a handpicked group of NFL superstars join together in order to solve crimes. Yes, it's the A-Team, but with a slightly different name that you won't believe.    What crimes will they solve? Which players will be a part of it? How will lax bros figure into the plot in season 2? These are all questions that will be asked (some of which will be answered rather unsatisfactorily) in the inaugural pilot description of... "The F-Team."      

If you have a bench, you're just wrong. Rob and Dave can officially say it. You're playing the game of fantasy football wrong. Don't you want an endless stream of stars on your team every single week? OF COURSE YOU DO.    Plus! Rob and Dave break down the financial and workers rights aspects of Le'Veon Bell's bold contract holdout, and just what the heck happened (and the soon-to-be-forgotten details) of that fateful Grand Slam Final against the incredible Naomi Osaka.    Plus plus! Dave has a very exciting new announcement about how he'll be spending this football season. And there's some dad talk, but come on. At this point, that's really just par for the course.    This episode is sponsored by MyBookie.ag, so if you like The Kicker Podcast and want to support, go gamble with them online using the promo code TKP.

Recording live from TKP's Fantasy Football draft, Rob is joined by Jeremiah Budin and Dave (F*** You) Krahn to give play by play as players from all over the globe (seriously) fill up a roster with NO BENCH. Spoiler Alert: Everyone drafted bad teams! Dave was away working on a super secret project that may or may not be the next Star Wars (it isn't...but it could be!). Let the games begin.

That's right, the NFL is thankfully, mercifully, and wonderfully back in our lives. Rob and Dave go through all of the week one match-ups and decide with ferocious accuracy who is going to win. And of course Dave utilizes the point spread to figure out the games, because that's what sane people do, and Rob just picks which teams are going to win, because that's what big old babies do.    Is it clear yet who wrote this episode description? It was not Rob, the big baby who refuses to use spreads when analyzing matchups.    But! A big shoutout to the newest TKP sponsors: MyBookie.ag and GameTime, the best ticketing app you'll EVER find. Also, we're weirdly sponsored by Nathan Peterman now. We have no idea how that happened, but we really appreciate and support everything he does. 

It's an OLD-SCHOOL episode of Rob and Dave going through this week's biggest and spiciest headlines, all capped off with some All-in/Not A Fan.    We're talking about Teddy Bridgewater's new home (and how it'll affect poor lil Tom The Macho Man Savage), A.A. Ron Rod Gurrs brand-new contract that makes him almost as rich as James Harden (who receives some seriously gratuitous burns in this pod), and a fantasy meltdown almost destroys the friendship of ten people who think a man is LYING about some real shady deals.   And, if you can believe it, all of this sports/comedy insanity is sponsored by MyBookie.ag! Use the promo code TKP so they know you're out there, TKPeeps! 

Anyone can tell you what might work when it comes to Fantasy Football. But only TKP's Dave Ingber can tell you what definitely will NOT work. Trust him, he knows. His fantasy rules have not worked for over a decade. **(From Rob) Dave's rules are actually pretty good. He's just cursed, and that's why he'll never win. Make sure to listen, and make sure to gamble this year! This episode is sponsored by MyBookie.ag, so if you like The Kicker Podcast and want to support, go gamble with them online using the promo code TKP. Thanks so much!!

Yeah it's a fantasy football preview... kinda. Rob and Dave are breaking down the consensus top ten quarterbacks in the NFL by helpfully providing you with one good thing and one bad thing about each guy. You'll learn about Big Ben's new playbook, the Packers' bold new game plan, and Cam's even bolder backup plan for when things go south. Make sure to listen, and make sure to gamble this year!

Friend of the Kicker Podcast Ronny Chieng ("The Daily Show" and "Crazy Rich Asians") joins Rob and Dave once again for a discussion of football, basketball, that time he almost maybe got beat up by Michael Bisping in Australia, and of course, a brand-new improvised sports movie.    Ronny is truly one of the funniest stand-up comics working today, and he really knows his sports! Check out this episode, and make sure to check him out in his massive new movie this weekend!!   And as always, please subscribe and rate us on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify, and the 10,000 other places you get all your sports comedy podcasts. 

Rob and Dave are going old-school on the kicker podcast with some recent headlines and some All-In/Not a Fan. Jalen Ramsey, Kawhi Leonard, and even Tiger Woods get discussed. Plus! Interns Isabel and Meagan get rightfully called out for not having seen some of the most important sports movies of the 21st century. And don't forget to send us a message on Facebook if you'd like to join the revolutionary new #NoBenchSpecial fantasy league!!

Rob and Dave are back with some BOLD predictions about the NFL season. They welcome Kicker writer Zack Phillips to cover everything from Tyrod Taylor never letting Baker Mayfield get a snap to Tom Brady's inevitable age decline (this may or may not cause Dave to start openly weeping) to Odell Beckham Jr's location for his first temper tantrum this year.    Will all of these come true? Of course not. But that's because making BOLD predictions takes guts. And if not a single one of these predictions come true, you get your money back for these podcasts!   Thank you so much for helping to spread the word about The Kicker Podcast! Please take like 5 seconds to subscribe on iTunes and LIKE our Facebook page whenever you get a chance. Thanks!

Rob and Dave are looking forward to this NBA season by making some BOLD predictions about what might happen. Look, will all 10 of these come true? Of course not. But if one or two of them do, you better believe we're going to be bragging about it for years to come.  Will the Mavericks will 50 games? Will Draymond Green mentor DeMarcus Cousins in the art of kicking certain types of balls? The Kicker Podcast has got all the predictions you need to HYPED for the NBA 2018-2019 season. 

This episode is too big to fail! Rob and Dave break down what they love and hate about playing fantasy football, and how to fix the game forever. SPOILER: Moving forward, shady trades will get you jail time, and Jeremiah Budin will be the independent fantasy commissioner for every league.  What did they miss? What would you like to change about fantasy football?

Rob and Dave are here to break down which NFC teams will make the playoffs. They come armed with Vegas odds, historical trends, quarterback statistics, and some good old fashioned sports fan intuition.    Despite not discussing it beforehand, they ended up with the exact same six teams making the playoffs! This means that they are both complete geniuses or total doofuses with no idea what they're talking about. Or it's somewhere in between.    Listen and decide for yourself!

It's prediction time, and (new dad) Rob King is back!! With the NFL season about to kickoff, we're predicting (through a combination of meticulous research, a thorough analysis of recent historical trends, and some really bad guesses) the AFC slate of playoff teams for the 2018 NFL season.   There are three agreements, and three vehement disagreements, with a few spicy sleepers thrown in there. Feel free to use this information to throw your money away in Las Vegas, or anywhere else now that sports gambling is legal. Or you can just tune in to hear how Rob is doing just ten days into fatherhood. He would appreciate your emotional support!   Thank You For The Reviews!

Rob King is still in New Baby Land, so friend of the Kicker Podcast and hardcore Yankees fan Jeremiah Budin squares off against noted Red Sox enthusiast David Ingber in this somewhat testy discussion about the Red Sox and Yankees. They discuss their favorite moments from the age-old rivalry, talk about why the current playoff system is just entirely stupid, and they get into why Boston fans are the most obnoxious in all of sports.   Well, that last part is a little one-sided.    And of course, they talk about why the Golden State Warriors suck, but that honestly just feels like an emotional release more than sports talk.    Subscribe to The Kicker Podcast on Apple Podcasts, it's the best way to keep up with all things TKP!

In recent months, we've gone through our best (and hopefully funniest) solutions to make baseball and basketball even better. And we asked the listeners to write in with their best suggestions, and you guys came through!! We go through our favorite suggestions from you wonderful internet people, and decide which ones we're going to implement into our favorite sports!   Using a fun 4-point ball for two minutes every quarter? Using a shot clock in baseball? Letting dogs play sports? It's all here. And Rob King is busy with the birth of his first child, so Kicker writer (and co-host of his own podcast, "The Sports A**hole Hall of Fame") Jeremiah Budin steps in to help Dave parse through the great suggestions.   Thank You For The Reviews!

LeBron and Serena are the only definite entries. Everyone else is up for debate! Rob and Dave engage in some healthy, robust, and occasionally angry discussions to figure out who are the best 10 American athletes performing in their sports right now. And Dave has an interesting turn of phrase when describing Bryce Harper that causes Rob and Cole to turn into a couple of 8-year old boys who literally can't stop laughing.

Hahaha, Rob King called in sick from this episode, so we finally get to talk about baseball!   Dave brings on Zack Phillips and Jeremiah Budin (co-hosts of the "Sports A**hole Hall of Fame" podcast) to figure out the ten best (some serious, some very insane) ways to fix America's pastime.    Most excitingly? A designated steroids user on each team. Who wouldn't want that?   And if you have any new ideas to fix the game we all love, send us a message at Facebook.com/officialthekicker

Rob and Dave are joined by Kicker writer Jeremiah Budin to discuss 10 new rules that will fix everything about the sport.

LeBron to the Lakers, along with Javale McGee and Lance Stephenson. Boogie Cousins to the Warriors, along with Kevin Durant and Ayesha Curry. From Fred VanVleet to Trevor Ariza to Joshua Jackson (the actor and the NBA player), Rob and Dave break down all the biggest moves since the season ended.    And then, because he just can't help himself, Rob provides his HARSH review of the "Uncle Drew" movie. Oh yeah, no punches were pulled.    

Holy crap! LeBron James is heading to the Lakers, and Rob and Dave are FREAKING OUT. Are the Lakers contenders now? Will Kawhi follow? Does this mean LaVar Ball was right all along? Ahhhhhh!!! The guys put out the Bat Signal and had to do an emergency podcast. (Look out for a cameo by Dave's adorable daughter Lucy.)

Yep, you read that title right. Hilarious writer Mike Scollins (formerly of Funny or Die, now on staff of "Late Night with Seth Meyers") joins the Kicker Podcast to talk about all manner of sports topics, from national anthems protests to... Gronk playing hockey?   Look, it's "The Mighty Ducks," but New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has moved to town with his family and gets embroiled in the mess. It all makes sense when you listen to it, we promise*.    *This promise comes with zero guarantee.    Thank You For The Reviews!

Comedian Nimesh Patel (SNL) joins Rob and Dave to talk 90's hoops and Allan Houston's five o'clock shadow.

Seth Reiss, former head writer for The Onion and supervising writer for Late Night with Seth Meyers, talks Pittsburgh sports, his love of overdogs (??), and his belief in Tiger Woods to continue to do Tigerish things for another decade.  And then comes the truly greatest improvised movie in Kicker Podcast history: one that takes place deep in the world of a sport nobody in the studio knows anything about.  Thank You For The Reviews!

Saturday Night Live cast member and die-hard LeBron James fan Heidi Gardner joins Rob and Dave (for the 2nd time!) on The Kicker Podcast mainly as a cheap form of therapy, after JR Smith and Kyle Korver combined to break her fragile NBA fan heart.    Heidi also tells us everything you need to know about joining her basketball skills summer camp (it's totally legit, we swear), breaks down where LeBron is going to end up (Houston -- you're BORING), and reveals some surprising details about her experience dealing with a bunch of Indy 500 groupies who wait near the track to hit on drivers immediately have life-threatening crashes.   Yeah, you're gonna want to stick around for this one.  Thank You For The Reviews!

LeBron is a free agent, so it's time to start speculating! Boston, Cleveland, LA, New Orleans, San Antonio, Houston, Golden State, or Philadelphia -- they've all got plusses for LeBron and they've all got minuses. Rob and Dave are here to break down every single one of them.    Also, Dave goes on a weird luxury tax rant midway through the pros and cons list. Feel free to skip past that - he's a certified lunatic. And Rob can't pronounce the name Kawhi Leonard to save his life for some reason. It's really the highlight of the year.    Thank You For The Reviews! Your reviews help other people find TKP, so you can brag to your friends about being the first to listen. You dang hipsters.

Stand-up comedian and friend of the Kicker Christian Finnegan joins to reminisce about how the Cavaliers had absolutely zero chance to win the NBA Finals this year against the Warriors and to drop some hot takes on Pixar's "Coco".   Plus, it's time for another improvised sports movie. In this magical adventure, we've got what you might call a classic "Brewster's Millions" situation, in which a player only gets paid if he's able to join all 30 teams. How will he do it? He's got to be enough of a jerk to get traded, but not so bad that he gets kicked out of the league. It's insane and bizarre, just like an improvised sports movie should be.    Thank You For The Reviews!
