57 - Super Regionals & World Cup Kickoff

This week on Armchair Allstars – Episode 57, the crew is playing a little short-handed as Jamie-Lee trades the studio for a Jelly Roll concert, leaving the guys to hold down the fort and somehow keep the train on the tracks. The episode is dominated by one of the biggest weekends of the college baseball season as the NCAA Super Regionals are officially set. The guys break down the impressive showing by the SEC, with Mississippi State Bulldogs baseball and Ole Miss Rebels baseball advancing alongside fellow SEC powers Texas Longhorns baseball, Oklahoma Sooners baseball, Georgia Bulldogs baseball, Auburn Tigers baseball, and Alabama Crimson Tide baseball. The crew previews the matchups, discusses who has the best path to Omaha, and debates whether the SEC's dominance has reached another level. The conversation then shifts to the international stage as the guys preview the upcoming FIFA World Cup, which kicks off next week. They discuss the United States men's national soccer team, expectations for the Americans, and break down the tournament's new expanded format, including how teams advance and what fans should expect from the biggest World Cup ever. The show wraps up with another entertaining edition of "Stump the Stone," a quick update from the golf world, and the usual assortment of random sports takes, side stories, and friendly arguments that make Armchair Allstars what it is. From Omaha dreams to World Cup hopes, Episode 57 is packed with postseason drama, international soccer talk, and enough Allstars chaos to keep you entertained from start to finish.

56 - Cheese, Rolling into the Regionals

This week on Armchair Allstars – Episode 56, the crew delivers another perfectly chaotic blend of sports, life talk, and absolute nonsense. The episode kicks off with Stoner’s ongoing feud with his angry neighbors, proving once again that suburban drama may be more competitive than most professional sports. Meanwhile, Scoop shares his latest battle with the grammatically challenged drive-thru workers, leading to one of the funniest opening segments the show has had in weeks. The guys also dive into one of the strangest traditions on Earth — the legendary Cooper's Hill Cheese-Rolling and Wake in England — questioning how this became a real event and why humans continue launching themselves down hills for dairy-related glory. This week’s edition of “Ask an Allstar” takes a more thoughtful turn, with the crew discussing how to find your true passions in life. Of course, even the meaningful conversations somehow spiral into hilarious stories, questionable advice, and classic Allstars banter. On the sports side, the focus shifts to the NCAA Baseball Regionals, with the guys making their picks for regional winners and looking ahead to potential Super Regional matchups as postseason baseball officially arrives. They also mix in another fun segment of “This Week in History,” bringing random and interesting moments from the past back to life. The show wraps up with the weekly edition of “Stump the Stone,” where Stoner shockingly puts together one of his strongest performances yet — batting over .500 and correctly answering 2 out of 3 questions, a statistical achievement the crew treats like a championship run. Random stories, college baseball predictions, cheese wheel races, and terrible life advice — this is peak Armchair Allstars chaos from start to finish.

With a lighter week in the sports world, the guys lean into the chaos and kick things off by recapping Reid and Scoop’s golf adventures over the weekend, including questionable shot selections, course management disasters, and the confidence that somehow still survives after every bad round. The episode also debuts a brand-new segment: “Reid’s Obscure Sports Moment of the Week,” where deep-cut sports history and random forgotten moments take center stage in true Allstars fashion. In this week’s edition of “Ask an Allstar,” the crew tackles a very important modern-day issue: what’s considered an acceptable amount to spend on bachelor and bachelorette parties? As expected, the answers range from surprisingly reasonable to financially irresponsible, with plenty of stories and debates mixed in. The guys also break down the latest from the golf world, including Aaron Rai capturing the PGA Championship, while Rory McIlroy stirred conversation by voicing frustrations about the course setup. The crew discusses whether Rory had a point or was simply venting after a frustrating week. Not the cleanest episode. Not the most structured episode.
