"The playoffs started this week, and you have questions. Who's the best team? Can I, a casual, start calling Aaron Judge a choker? Wait, they let a CANADIAN team take the one-seed in the AMERICAN League? Is that legal? And which team has the wettest guys on its roster, and why is it the Phillies? Those questions, and more, are the subject of the week's Distraction episode."
"And then we talked about even more crazy shit! We all picked a winner for the WNBA Finals, and Lauren used her allotted 60 seconds of hockey talk to glaze her newly beloved Winnipeg Jets. Then we busted open the Funbag to talk about opening cereal boxes. You've never been so electrified. So strap on a pair of headphones, smash that play button, and get your baseball on."
Bracket analysis examines team strengths, potential winners, and uncertainties surrounding the best team. Aaron Judge's postseason performance and clutch reputation receive close scrutiny. The AL one-seed belonging to a Canadian team prompts questions about seeding legitimacy and league geography. Roster characteristics attract attention, with the Phillies highlighted for having notably 'wet' players and playful labels like "Big Dumpers" applied to certain teams. Additional segments include bracket predictions, a WNBA Finals pick, a brief hockey commentary on the Winnipeg Jets, a humorous piece on opening cereal boxes, and subscription options for listeners.
