Mostly Nitpicking

Our interview with Donald Trump as preview to Episode 62. There were some technical difficulties getting the full Episode 62 up, and DJ explains here in this YouTube Video: http://youtu.be/w7kdqqP4RDo

The Best Billionaire Bracket begins! Jay Van Buiten and Emily Hromada come on to finalize our bracket and look at some of the early match ups. We also get to talk to the largest billionaire in the fictional side of the bracket, Smaug, about his experience and his thoughts about his competitors.

The Best Billionaire Bracket is starting to shape up. On this episode we #buildthebracket with 16 real billionaires and 16 fictional ones. Paul Dicola stops by to explain to DJ how the numbers work and another surprise billionaire comes on to explain how to spend billions of dollars.

This is the lost episode. Okay that's a little dramatic. DJ forgot to upload it for a week. We talked about DJ's trip, the 7th Heaven dude, and Smash. We also got into our new bracket that we will start very soon. It's the Best Billionaire Bracket!

We are flying solo here. DJ is off in Great Britain so Nando is forced to go it alone. He has help though. So yeah. Not alone. Emily Hromada and Chris Diggins stop by to announce the winner of the The Purplest One bracket and agree that we already talked about it a bunch last week. Diggins has to leave, but Nando and Emily interview Richard Nixon and finally get down to the bottom of the Watergate Conspiracy. We also tease the next bracket and we even rip apart the Desolation of Smaug.

This is our 1-Year Anniversary Episode! We have a ton of guests back on. Ethan, Emily, Frank, Paul, Caroline, Nick, Tim, Diggins, and Jack all stop by to talk the first year of Mad Bracket Status. In a stunning turn of events, all of this year's Nando guests show up to present a surprise Awards Show! We call it the Maddys! Oh and we get to the results of the The Purplest One final four. This is certainly the greatest episode of Mad Bracket Status ever, until next year.

This podcast is on fire! DJ and Nando sit down with sketch comedian and Dave Coulier enthusiast Sean Kelty to talk purple. We reveal the Final Four in our The Purplest One bracket and we even get a chance to sit down with one of our competitors. Get excited for our anniversary episode next week!

This is a message to all Autobots. We go through the first round of eliminations in the The Purplest One bracket. Fan favorite Stunwin stops by to give us his opinion and get some great football advice. Also I, Optimus Prime, stop by with an old friend to warn Mad Bracket Status about one of the competitors. Autobots, Roll Out!

The first week of voting in the The Purplest One bracket is over. We have eliminated many great competitors (and Justin Beiber) to arrive at our top 16. We bring our friend and not legal council George Blazeski on to talk purple and also football. Also speaking of purple and football, you are never going to believe who from the bracket comes on. But then again with the power of prayer and positive thinking anything is possible. Anything.

We have the 32 competitors in the running for our The Purplest One bracket. We bring Trevor Brenn on to sort through the competition and give us his opinion on who can win it all. We even get a surprise appearance from one of the competitors himself and he has a bone to pick with DJ.

Things are about to get purple. We go over every possible competitor in our Purplest One (Title Pending) Bracket. Comedian Miles Bado joins us and also a Batman villain who has nothing to do with purple stops by.

This episode of Mad Bracket Status is huge! We have DOUBLE the Ivans! We have DOUBLE the hours! It took us DOUBLE as long as it usually does to get it online! Along with our guest, Ethan Crump, we reveal the winner of our Best Sports Movie Villain. We also talk about our next bracket, Purplest Guy.

Hooked on a bracket! Ba da na na! Nando and DJ bring Nick Porcaro on for his incredible third appearance! We go through our Final Four results for the Best Sports Movie Villain bracket and reveal the final two competitors! But mostly, we talk about Guardians of the Galaxy! Spoilers abound! Nick thought Captain America 2 was better than Avengers! I know, right? We also speak with a certain mad Titan who is looking for magic rocks or something. Who cares? Can you believe Porcaro didn't think Avengers was the best one? Also, isn't Poprika great? Listen to that too.

Everybody get up! It's time to jam now. We are down to the final four in our Best Sports Movie Villain bracket. CTO Caroline Amaba comes back on to help us eliminate four of the competitors. We also interview three of the Nerdlucks from Space Jam! Also we talk Comic Con and negative Guardians of the Galaxy reviews.

This week's show sounds like a damn monster movie! We have both DiCola brothers Frank and Paul. Frank is the game designer and Paul is the Frozen fanatic. (He has other interests.) We eliminate eight competitors in our Best Sports Movie Villain to reveal our Elite Eight. There are some big surprises and then there are the Monstars who continue to steamroll the competition. We also have musical Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed to talk about their experiences and sing us a few songs from their legitimately cool and awesome musical. Finally we complain about girl Thor. What a show!

Y'all ready for this? We can answer that for you. No you are not. This week we invite Jay and engineer Cori onto the show to talk sports movies. Jay has seen at least three. We go over the results of the first round of voting on our Best Sports Movie Villain. Tears are shed. Friends become enemies. Enemies become friends. We also invite a wild and crazy guest who may have some insight into the most contentious match-up of the round. PS After the episode ends listen to our commentary on the trailer for - and we're not joking about this - the Air Bud space movie.

A new bracket is upon us. We are talking sport movies! We bring on Alex Lee, friend of the show, and Ben Chapman, the racist manager from the movie 42, and we go through our Best Sports Movie Villain Bracket. We have 32 contenders that include Shooter McGavin, White Goodman, Apollo Creed, and the Monstars! We also close up the Bracket of Eights and we finish talking about soccer forever.
