132 - Paige & SK from Fastest Yap Podcast

Holy Cannoli MFer's! We're back at it with even MORE guests! Thank goodness Dan has been able to fill the gaps during this long break, by bringing in some of our good friends from our F1 Threads crew. This week it's the "Fastest Yap" duo, here to talk race cars, play some QT, and of course be subjected to our awful jokes. Let's dive in with Paige and SK! 18:00 - Right off the bat, Dano's gotta be pickin' bones. If anybody's taking the "pointless" tag, it's the Midfield Pod, and we're ready to fight about it. As always, we get the origin stories, and learn about a crazy new gambling mechanism. Dan had a drool bucket off mic, so we didn't have to replace his carpet. We get the lowdown on "Yapper Standings", and discuss the Youth Movement in F1. Patty adds another bean to the pile he owes. 23:40 - Quuuueeeeesssstionable Trivia baby!! Lando themed this time around. The Yappers fare better than most, probably by ignoring Patrick as much as possible. As usual he bandwagons his way to a couple tallies. Patty drops his hot take on Albon yet again, and people are starting to come around. Again a massive thank you to "The Fastest Yap" for swinging by and spending some time getting to know us and playing our silly games. Be sure to like and follow them on threads and join in on the fun! And of course, keep those fingers crossed, and elbows out!

131 - Natalie from Girls Just Wanna F1

Welcome back MFers! It's a 5 week break, so it's time for the Midfield Pod to step and cure your boredom! Don't worry, we brought some help. Natalie from "Girls Just Wanna F1" stopped by to do some heavy lifting for us. We rope her into a little Questionable Trivia, can she help Patrick, who knows nothing, about anything, ever? God let's hope so. 23:30 - We get to know our guest Natalie! Origin stories are our favorite here in the Midfield. With undenying-ly the BEST name in sports casting, we were hoping she'd share a little bit of her magic skills on our niche ideas. We talk new teams and regs, top teams, all the good stuff. Natalie is better at our stupid game than we are! We'll get our team to send her some beans for next time, just in case. 55:15 - Dan wrangles it back in for everyone's favorite, it's time for Questionable Trivia! Could be called, "do you know more F1 facts than a dog?". Patty's been getting closer lately, but this aint horseshoes. We're goin' Albon this round. You can't put the toothpaste back in the tube! We don't count entrapment. Thanks again for tuning in, and huge thanks to Natalie for stopping by and hanging out with us Midfielders, we massively appreciate it! As always keep your fingers crossed, and elbows out!
