Lex and Brian don’t know if women have special powers, but maybe Aaron Sorkin does. Season two of Sports Night kicks off with a killer montage as Casey tries to work up the courage to ask Dana out. Jeremy and Natalie are fighting. Isaac’s back. There’s a lot to unpack - and a lot to love. You’re listening to Sorkin’ In It on the Incomparable podcast network, so stick around. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
It’s the first time Sorkin named an episode of television “What Kind of Day Has It Been.” Luckily, that’s not the most memorable part of the episode, either. Brian and Lex agree this COULD have served as a SERIES finale if necessary, but luckily, it didn’t. Casey interacts with his son; Dana interacts with her camera. And we’re there, along with you, as we blissfully Sorkin’ in it all. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
Barstool Nate vents after the Capitals loss and the Wizards awful lottery numbers
It’s the penultimate episode of Season 1 of Sports Night, and we learn that Casey’s “plan” isn’t as much of a plan… or is it? Meanwhile the fellas can’t seem to find their pants, Dana confronts Gordon, and Jeremy can’t stop talking about blood. That all may sound a bit weird, but don’t worry, Lex and Brian have your back. Let’s go Sorkin’ In It. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
Casey’s still mad that someone tried to blow up the building. Brian and Lex are mad because — no, they didn’t: It was a bomb threat hoax. There’s a difference, Casey. Meanwhile, Jeremy chases down a cricket story. Or a wicket story. We don’t understand it either. And Rebecca returns — only good things can follow, right? RIGHT?! Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

The NBA is coming down to the wire!
The team is covering the sweet 16 and Bobbi Bernstein returns. She’s not the only one, because Rebecca’s “ex,” Steve Sisco, makes a surprise visit. The team is eagerly anticipating Isaac’s return, but they’re going to have to wait a little bit longer. Finally, Casey has some very particular thoughts regarding cake, and your pals Lex and Brian don’t agree. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Jeremy gets some devastating news that’s eerily similar to news Sam Seaborn will get in a couple years in another universe. Dan is excited to watch a baseball game with Rebecca. Is the whole episode a home run worth watching? Brian and Lex are happy to tell you. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Seth and Sean discuss the Coogs making it to the Final Four, what newly-signed LB EJ Speed might bring to the Texans, react to Frank Reich being hired at Stanford, and lay out tonight's sneaky good Houston sports night.
Jeremy’s writing to his sister, again. Dana’s fearful about losing Gordon, again. And an underdog is doing great, again — but this time, the Sports Night crew is mad at the athlete instead of supportive. Weird. Luckily, Brian and Lex are there to make sense of it all. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Gordon cancels plans with Dana. She mistakenly calls this getting stood up. Brian and Lex are annoyed by this. On the flip side, there’s a surprisingly intriguing subplot about Casey’s missing shirt. And since the episode is called “Sally”, you can bet there’s plenty of Sally, too. Yay? Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Even when we like episodes, Brian can’t stand Sorkin’s titles. This is no exception. Dana’s going snorkeling, until she isn’t. We wonder if anyone truly LOVES snorkeling. Dan enlists Jeremy as the world’s unlikeliest wingman. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Teri Polo appears as Rebecca, and Dan is charmed (and so are we). She appears to be… less so. Everyone staff is worried about Isaac’s job, and no one at Sports Night can keep a secret. That’s a fact we told many, many people. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

In hour one, preparing for a ton of sports action tonight including the Cats, Canes and Inter Miami all in action + Luka's first game vs Dallas. Spo tries to put a positive spin on another BAD Heat loss last night - does he have a point? Plus, Twan Russell joins the show and explains why he believes Cam Ward is a player that can change the trajectory of an NFL franchise.
Casey and Dana become the absolute worst dates ever, and Dan is forced to cohost the show with a woman who hates him. On the plus side, Natalie gets the chance to shine, and Jeremy is — much like we are — quite impressed. But wow do find Casey and Dana difficult to like in this episode.

Dan thinks it’s time for Casey to “get back out there.” Just as long as there’s no flirting with Sally. Meanwhile, Dana can’t keep Isaac’s secret, and Jeremy gets one of the funniest lines in the whole series. Brian and Lex are there to laugh… and Sorkin’ In It. P.S. Go Birds!

Dan is desperate for Isaac to step up and encourage the president of the network to fight racism. You’ll never guess whether Isaac steps up. (Spoiler alert: He does.) Also, Donna Moss appears in a storyline that’s good with an execution that’s less good. Our thanks to Brian Warren, Lex Friedman, and the whole Sorkin’ In It team. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Dan’s in the zone and can’t wait to head out to Atlantic City, but fate has other plans. Poker will still be played, though. Jeremy’s emotions may be played with too, as he and Natalie work through some things. Also, Isaac is getting smaller, and Dana lacks any compassion. At least Brian and Lex are here, so we all can try Sorkin’ In It. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Not a bad sports night for a cold Monday in January.
It’s the circle of life! By which we mean, Dana goes to see The Lion King on Broadway. Also, Sports Night covers an Everest climb. Brian has corrections for Aaron on mountaineering. And Dan’s looking for a good place to donate his money. Hopefully he’s already a member of The Incomparable. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

It’s S1E8 of Sports Night — Thespis! Somehow, functional grown adults believe they are being haunted by a Roman god. Or a Greek ghost. Or something. Meanwhile, Isaac frets about his pregnant daughter, and a dumb joke about a turkey is telegraphed from a mile away. Luckily, Brian and Lex are. Let’s Sorkin’ In It together.

Jeremy is writing a letter. And falling in love. And Dana’s getting ready to lip sync to “The Jackal”. Wait, wrong Sorkin show - it must be a dance to “Boogie Shoes”. And the team covers a sad story. Almost as sad as their kerning. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Lex and Brian are at the news desk to record another episode of Sorkin’ In It. This time, the Sports Night team lands a huge interview with a major athlete, but there are surprise conditions. Not only that, but Dana sends Natalie to the pre-interview and… unpleasantness ensues. But, good news, everybody - Dan has a quirky subplot to rise to the challenge: He’s contemplating growing a goatee. Okay. What’s next? We’re Sorkin’ In It. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
Dan sang happy birthday to Casey. What a jerk! But at least we get to meet Yeardly Smith, and she’s not voicing a Simpson. Meanwhile Casey is frustrated by a fly. Or Dana’s new boyfriend. Or something. None of this makes sense, but have you looked around lately? Escape from the world, friends. Join us. Sorkin’ in it. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

SERIES 2 EPISODE 218: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) I have been thinking for awhile now that there will come a point, this year, this election, maybe this MONTH, where we will all be saying “Can you believe we came THIS CLOSE to not making Vice President Harris the nominee?” You have heard about THE poll: Ipsos for Reuters (Harris 42 Trump 38 Kennedy 8 third-party race; Harris 44 Trump 42 head-to-head) that's a four point shift TO Kamala Harris… in a week. But have you heard the OTHER polls? Marist for NPR and the PBS News Hour? Harris 42 Trump 42 Kennedy 7 / Trump 46 Harris 45.YouGov for Yahoo News? Harris 46 Trump 46. These numbers are from the FIRST FULL DAY of the Harris campaign and she is already in a statistical tie. Harris's favorables are at a net -2, sounds meh. Biden's? A net -18. Trump's? Net -19. More jaw-dropping still? The top Republican internal pollster in Georgia has Harris starting off there, trailing just 48-47. And best of all: Do you agree or disagree: at 78 years old Trump is too old to work in government? Agree – 53%. Disagree – 43%. Trump's pollster issued a panicked memo lowering the bar just as the Reuters poll was coming out. Funny he never mentioned the age issue! Polling, polling, polling. Plus it's hard to tell what the Fascists are freaking out about the most: the polls, Kamala declaring war on their suddenly oldest-ever candidate, or their leadership's insistence that they can't call her "colored" (like Sebastian Gorka did a week ago) or use racial epithets and especially not call her "DEI." Which, of course, is what they immediately called her. Or maybe it's J.D. Vance. There's instant buyers' remorse because he's so bad on stage that they can't tell if he's inflated or stuffed - or both. B-Block (35:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Colombian emigre Valentina Gomez is running for Secretary of State in Missouri on an anti-immigration platform and now she's illegally used the balcony of the Speaker of the House on which to film an ad. An Ohio State Senator becomes the last Republican to threaten Civil War, and the New York Post and Senator Mike Lee both fall for the worst fake announcement of the fake death of the fake Jimmy Carter on fake stationery imaginable. C-Block (47:10) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I mentioned Aaron Sorkin yesterday. Time to explain the story of the day I was watching one of his TV shows and suddenly my father's favorite saying was coming out of the mouth of Aaron's lead character because Aaron had gotten in the habit of borrowing my life.
