(04:23):

just how weird the flow. Thisis gonna be all right. I'll hate
it from here, but we are. Oh, hold on, though,
there's one more introduction of us.Be done. We have just been joined
by the trans perfect Music City Bowlwinner, the Cheese at Citrus Bowl participant,

(04:44):
great son, our favorite commissioner,man half marathon runners, vacation terms,
best friend, yes of no classes, a man of infinite potential,
and the astro Ninja. It's Sky. I was not expecting this. Look

(05:05):
Wolf, we love you man.When did you take over terms job?
When did this happen? It's likefive minutes ago? Yeah, what are
you doing? I'm I'm pretty good, right, honestly, how about you?
I'm here now? Yes, Christdid he just wake up or something?
Doesn't look like it a little bit, but I didn't. Hey,

(05:29):
I got my wish. I'm herewith the whole letter rolling through. Yeah,
let's go. Oh yeah. Alsoyeah, Scott. I felt like
I was good off respect nobody saysmy fucking athletes on the goddamn podcast,
and Yo Wolf came up with agreat idea and he said all the ship
that I'm good at, hon't worry, mom and whatnot, and I appreciate

(05:50):
it. Before I listened to theshow, I know these things. I've
listened to every episode since the newcrew started, every single one Wow dedication,
including the delete in one term.Oh god, oh god, I
am so sorry feeling don't worry.I think I think this is worse than

(06:10):
our first episodes. But thank youWill for those great introductions. You're the
fucking best, and thank you forjoining the show where we even get into
like this whole season wrap up.I did really want to ask with the
Best w podcast, you guys basicallysaid like last episode and like there's gonna
be a hiatus or like four episodesa year or like two year, or

(06:33):
I don't know exactly what's going onwith it. And I listened to your
show live today and it seems likeBrandon was kind of like walking that back,
even though it was like his decisionin the first place. So I
just wanted out what the hell wasgoing on. Honestly, Yeah, last
episode, our intro went for thirtyminutes, so I suppose maybe it was

(06:53):
a bit muddled, a lot ofreminiscent, a lot of reminiscing. It
happens a lot. So what actuallywas decided like last week was that basically
Brendan is getting a lot of differentresponsibilities and a lot of different interests in
his life, and he isn't willingto make like the time for the show
anymore to sacrifice those other opportunities forevery single thing that happens throughout the year

(07:15):
and like trying to make a newepisode every single week. So he's really
kind of just aiming to be ableto do the show for the stuff that
he's super passionate about, which wasthis Marble League. And as I've heard
today, which was definitely different fromlast episode, is that he's that marbul
One is a maybe and but so, and then he's like he was pretty
adamant that marbor Rally is just notgoing to happen. I'm which makes me

(07:39):
sad, like marbor Rally deserves morerespect than that. I agree. I
mean, it's it's what put jmrlike on the map. It's the most
viral thing that happens. I knowit's not like the most exciting, but
sometimes it is. It's the mostexciting. It can have his great moments.
Yeah, like I guess regarding likethe decision, I had felt it
for a while that like my mytime in the showould probably be winning.

(08:01):
But I knew also if I left, the show would stop, because I
want our dynamic is so important tothe show that you can't have MSW without
one of us. And also I'mthe primary editor of the show, so
if I left, the show literallywould just not be created. So I
was always willing to like go becauseit's it's Brennan's creation first and foremost,
Like he conceived this idea before Ijoined it, and so I didn't want

(08:22):
to be the one to like basicallytake his dream away. And so I
was like, Okay, I willwillingly let him decide when we're gonna end
it. If we thought we're gonnado it till the episode two hundred.
But now it's like it feels tome, it feels more like it could
just kind of happen whenever. Wheneverit's on on a whim, it's it's
because the new plan was not discussedwith me beforehand. I'll just say that
sounds uh yeah, it sounds prettyominous. Yeah, like it's very weird.

(08:48):
Well, I just want you toknow that you have an opened invite
to join this podcast. Whatever thehell you want, we get checked her
out, whatever, it doesn't matterthat. Hey, I'll stay up for
this shit. Hector's probably got themost dedication for the hours he does.
Is that like, mad respect madrespect? Well, we're doing him a
favorite by fixing a sleep schedule.Let's let's be real, kicking off this

(09:11):
podcast would do nothing to fix mysleep schedule. We would just start posting
you live on Discord. You'd belike, oh man, I wish I
had a take right here, youknow. Yeah, but seriously, well,
if if you ever want to enjoinedthe podcast, you are fully welcome
too. Seems like things are upin the air, which like that's a
weird thing to be like in limbo. With that, you know, we're

(09:33):
gonna keep fucking going and if youenjoyed you can. Yeah, I definitely
appreciate that. Like, I apologizeto our fans if any of that was
confusing. That was not the intention, but it does. I'm pretty sure.
Yeah, there's not gonna be likeOkay, we're gonna have a plan
number to end at in SIA,it's gonna be like okay today Brendan file
is like I can't do it anymore, and so it's it's gonna be a

(09:54):
sudden cutoff. Also, on topof that, hatle you like every episode
you're two handsome? Yeah, getthe strap all right, So let's get
to the season wrap up of Barbulaone season four. I have one big
thing to say and I will bebeating down the store until Barbula one comes
back. That is, get thefuck out a race way, please,

(10:18):
I need this. Thank god,I rewatched all the racist today. No,
it was a goddamn nightmare watching thisthing again. I over started to
completely off battle through drats to me, but get rid of this fucking track,
please, no, do you don'tget rid of it? I mean,
I can understand giving a one seasonbreak because they've done it with a

(10:39):
lot of popular tracks and it's niceto see a bit of variety, but
don't get rid of that course foreverbecause it's a really good coal. He
didn't even win it, yeah,he's still a still did well and be
completely irrelevant biases, which is importantfor your point. It is a very
good track. There's a reason it'scome back every season. Bias I hate
the same as the only course that'sbeen in all four seas seasons. I

(11:00):
think it's it is due for abreak. That said, I don't want
a season of marble and without sand, and I also don't want Mirage Mountain
back anytime soon, So I'd sayit's about time we get a Turtle Slider's
course that's got sand on it.I feel like that's the only other team
I can think of where that's likevaguely appropriate. I am fully own bold
with this idea. I know we'regonna we're not gonna get to the which

(11:22):
team should come back, which tracksshould come back thing at some point or
another. But term brought up araceway, so I'll just shoot that in
right now. Yeah, that honestlyis not a bad idea, Like having
like a race so you take abreak because it has been here for every
single one, so it's going toget old if we just do it every
time. But having a more sandheavy like actually utilizes the sand in a
creative way, like like Turtle Slidersthat like like a sand that goes into

(11:43):
like an ocean e section. Man, I have actual water, but like
a beach stained course that's like heavilything. I like that idea. Yeah,
yeah, I like that. ButI feel like if you have if
you don't have a raceway, it'slike losing Midnight Bay. We were all
upsets Midnight Bay. And I washappy in a sense because I knew then
the whisps weren't coming back. Butyou know, oh raceway is a staple,

(12:07):
And yes, I think it's gettinga little old and stale in a
sense. You just change it up, add some jumps in there. Oh
raceway should be more of a farmsetting in my mind, like it should
have like a dirt track or somethingof longer dirt track with some jumps in
there or something. It should.They should just redo the whole circuit,
but keep oh raceway. That's astaple for me. Well, not all

(12:28):
of us were happy to see MidnightBay go. Decker. I actually shed
a tear of joy watching Midnight Bayleave. But Square did the exact same
thing. Yeah, well, Ijust realized what the problem was. This
is what happened. So but Ithink kind of along kind of following this
whole midnight Bay thing, watching itgo, wanting some tracks today, I

(12:48):
think we need to do, guys. Is we just need to start letting
tracks be back that you know theteams aren't back for it, Like if
we're cutting the Raspberry Racers, butlet's still go to Rasway. I think
that should happen because Raspbery is afantastic track, but I don't want to
see the Raspberry Racers race on itever. Again, I think that's what
we need to start doing, Guys. I think we just need to start

(13:09):
allowing teams to host without being anm one. I get that, and
I kind of agree, But thenyou also have what reason would there be
it to bring in new tracks whenwe have so many good existing tracks.
But I mean, for the casethat this year we had a couple of
good tracks the start that we didn'tlike three or four in a row,

(13:30):
and then we started to pick itback up again at the end. Yeah.
True. The real question is whywas Misty Mountain there but in sleep
Street? But I don't know youcan cut Sleeve Street. Yeah. I'm
one hundredsent on board Sky and Ican say with certainty that a lot of
people in the community agree with thatas well, Like it's a pretty popular
idea to let teams that aren't competinghost races because some of the best tracks

(13:52):
are from teams that are either thatsuck, already been kicked out, or
just terrible. Yeah, that's likethe Rosbry races out keep rassway bring Midnight
Baby back. Sorry, Sky,but just don't bring it back. I
think in your case, we justdon't have a last race, you know,

(14:13):
it just kind of ends. Myreal one never probably the one goes
on forever, it's a one orthat. Interestingly enough, Frend and I
actually had this discussion on our showjust a few hours ago. Um,
he put up the point like kindof like in the universe, basically,
it would kind of be almost disrespectfulthat like a team like you had to
host a competition for us, butyou're not allowed to actually compete at it.

(14:37):
Like he kind of makes sense,Like in most competitions that I've seen,
at least, you don't host likea competition unless you were actually participating
in it. Like I've never reallyactually heard of it, unless like the
extreme circumstances, like whether they're likelike oh, there's like a snowstorm,
and like you can't go this arena, so you have to go to one
like in like the neighboring town orsomething. See, Like I did listen

(15:00):
the show live and I was literallyjust punching wall after all listening to Brandon
say this, he tried to compareit to the NFL, where like,
hey, they play like the superBowl on a neutral site or you know,
teams don't have to move because theblizzards are like other aspects that like
are out of their control. Alsolike if F one's racing on Monaco,

(15:24):
is mister Monaco there, like misterbab Rob and fucking bah Rob whatever.
I still don't know how'll pronounce that. All right, all right there it
is is mister ba right there,I'll think. So, like, you
know, these are just courses,and if they're theme towards a team,
like I get it. But wedon't necessarily need the team there to race

(15:46):
on that course. I love thatpoint. What we need is Uncle Sam
Racing and the American grum PRIs.I call it an eagle head on the
front and a flag on the back. It's a truck, not a car,
actually, I think that's what theDY five hundred is right, Scott,

(16:07):
Yeah, I can see that.I mean, if you want me
to go into one hundred twenty percentimmersion real quick, it could be seen
as bad for him to say,hey, Raspberry Racers, you suck at
M one. Never show your facesin the competition ever. Again. Also,
please contribute to the budget in maintainingyour course so that other teams can
race on it. Thank you.But also, like this is JMR,

(16:29):
you don't have to get bad immersedin it. Like yeah, come on,
well no, I don't even thinkthat's that big a break of immersion.
I think you're just not looking atit the right way. The Raspberry
Racers have been a M one householdname for X number of seasons X number
of years. By allowing them tostill host, we're allowing more teams to
be involved in Marbula one. Likethey've already have the track, right,

(16:52):
you're not just gonna let it sitand collect does That's how I see it?
So great, great, you've gotyou know, you cut the raspberrys,
you cut whoever else, and sonow you've got maybe four teams that
used to have tracks that got cut. They those tracks come back. And
then so now we have twenty fourteams as a part of Mr Bula one,
because you've got the four teams thatreplaced them that don't have tracks yet
or just didn't get selected, andthen you have those four iconic tracks that

(17:18):
are hosted by the team that we'recut. They have twenty four teams.
Like, that's awesome. Yeah,that's a ringing, nice angle, And
especially in terms of project model,if it's something that if they do bring
it back, I'd be really excitedto explore that in the writing, because
there's a lot you can do withthat. Yeah, Like, I think
it's a good idea to just,yeah, get rid of the teams that
suck, but keep their cool tracksand we get introduced new teams, get

(17:41):
better tracks. Like I don't knowwho the fuck wants to see Sleet Street
next year. Why did they evenbring it back this year? It's like,
universally the most hated track. Iguess to show that they can learn
from their mistakes. Well, MissyMountain did exist at one point. I
mean, the reason they brought SleetStreet back was to give it a chance
without the foam pinball effect. Stillsucks. It still sucks, So they're

(18:03):
not gonna bring it back again thisseason. Wrap up. I know we
all hate Sleet Street this year,but I just definitely want to remind everybody
that we loved it the year beforewith didn't you guys set it on the
podcast? Don't fucking line to me? Like the hot take. Misty Mountain
season two is worse than both SleetStreets. Oh hell yeah, whoa get
on it? Hold on, No, I changed my mind. This is

(18:27):
worse. No, this season,this season Seed Streets worse, not both
Sleet Streets. A Mountain was badbut also partially skill issue, whereas this
Sleet Street was just boring, gialissue on which part skill issue the skill
issue and clem forgetting stuff? Ohjust clem, just clem. No,

(18:49):
I can't no, hold on,hold on, hold on. I came
with a hot take and set itbackwards. I'm just gonna stop talking.
Not a god sake take off,Oh my god. Like Missing Mountain was
so poorly designed on its first inouting, like the two like two turns

(19:11):
like I went into each other andthen it's stuck there and literally physics want
a lot of marble to hit them. No safety marble, No matter what
you do can get them dislodged.That was just really bad design. I
mean to be fair. To befair, it was not one corner that
was badly designed. Sure, notthe entire course, but yeah, that
was shocking design. Um. Butthis is kind of something I wanted to

(19:34):
bring up for this M one recapand it sort of relates to Sleet Street.
Um. But this year between lastyear, I remember last year I
had there was a gimmick. Everysingle track, some I'm are reusing track
had its own gimmick versus now we'regoing going away from a lot of the
gimmicks. Did that make this betteror worse than last season? Made this

(19:56):
season feel like less of a carnivalpelooza at times, because like Mellow Yellow
wasn't a terrible track, but Ifeel this really angry looking at it.
And the same with Startuck Accelerator,And I think the gimmicks are fine,
it's just when they're there for noreason, it takes away from the race.
We love Short Circuit season one becauseit was fast, and then we
added helix is there for no fuckingreason and then it just ruined the whole

(20:19):
thing. Same with the quad spliton Midnight Bait. Why was that there
this time. I think it wasa lot more carefully thought out. The
accelerator was used when it's good everythingthat turn. Yeah yeah, I think
like start us accelerator benefit from thelack of gimmicks. I think Sleet Street
did not benefit from it because,as I said, we all loved it

(20:41):
you know, last season, thisseason not so much. You know,
you guys can argue all you what, but I think with Electronics Best way
Keeping quad split it was nice.Cedar Square could have used more gimmicks.
Yeah, also get rid of araceway because you know, you really sandy
here. I don't love that,of course, irritating it gets everywhere.
Yeah, yeah, I mean thething. The thing about the gimmicks is

(21:04):
that I don't think gimmicks themselves areat all a bad thing. It's just
a case of how they're implemented.And season three we saw a real mix
of well implemented gimmicks and really poorlyimplemented gimmicks where they had given themselves that
mandate to put a gimmick in everyrace, which is why we got shockers
like the short Circuit helix and theMidnight Bay quad Split, which are two

(21:26):
features that I think work really wellif they used in the right place,
and those were just horrible placement,Like Electron Expressway. The quad split works
wonders and makes it one of myfavorite tracks, but at Midnight Bay it
was placed so horribly that it causedproblems. Like any gimmick can work if
you put it in the right place. In my mind, there's kind of

(21:47):
two categories of gimmicks. One Ilike, why I don't like, and
there could be a third category thereones I don't care about yet finish.
Okay, So the ones that likewere the ones that kind of test the
marbles skills. It's things that theykind of have to make a decision on,

(22:10):
like the splits, like which sideare you going to go down?
The ones that I don't like arethe ones that are just kind of meant
to screw with the leader, likethe bumpers and the whatever god awful pinball
on Strocity Sleep Street was that madeit easier for the leader. I don't
know what you're talking about. Yeah, the ones that are just meant to

(22:30):
slow marbles down I don't care for, and I think those are the ones
that kind of got overused. It. Also, not every track beats to
half one that's the big thing.Ag Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's
I feel like this is good.A lot of these are gonna turn into
basically just repeating what I said afew hours ago. But for Star Wars
Accelerator, while like gaining the tubesdefinite improvement, removing them, I felt

(22:52):
like a lot of its aesthetic wasgone. I think they even roof some
of the planet's like it lost alot of its charm and how it looked,
and like I was talking about thatmaybe they could have done like like
when I was a kid, Ihad like a painting where like you had
like this big ol black sheet ofpaper and you put like some white paint
on brush and you just flicked itand basically made stars and then you could
put that paper on the track.It maasic you have literally racing on the
Stardust Accelerator out of the accelerator.That would be well, that would be

(23:18):
very nice having some potage sections makeit like look futuristic, because this is
meant to be the track of thefuture in space and whatnot. Like if
it's gonna be a simple track,like sure it races as well, but
really adds thing to replace or havean elliptical tube that's way wider that you
can actually swallow them through that actuallywould allow you to pass like blow the
budget. I did that when Iwas a clive. I guess you could

(23:45):
say that one of the ways ofchanges that would be reclassifying gimmicks is things
like the helases and the bump puzzles. Brother, it's always your brother,
and you turn off your camera whenhe comes in. Is he more handsome
than because that's all sorry actor.Yeah. Like, on the one hand,
there as those gimmicks that I definitelycalled proper gimmicks, and then only

(24:08):
that hand, you can have thingslike just visual design things like the glass
bridge at Midnight Bay, or thesand section of a raceway, or Wolf's
idea for a really cool change toStartust Accelerator, Like they don't really affect
the racing so much, but keepingthe visual interest alive, which was definitely
the biggest complaint people had about removingthe gimmick from Stardust Accelerator. Did people
really care that much about like removingthe tubes. I can think of at

(24:32):
least two people who really did care, Like I thought the aesthetic was still
there for st a Accelerator. Theyhad those, They had the Martian like
that beat me up marble thing likeit was there. I remember there being
more planets I could have. Sure, maybe, but I'm afraid those might
have gotten the way of recording,like some of them might have as are

(24:53):
we are we forgetting the Galaxy Marble. I think it a don of planets
in it. I hate to sayit, but I don't think we need
to start as accelerator mark four.Any mark three is good, you need
to put five. Come on,Scott, yeah, yeah, push her.
Yeah, I get that. ButI would also be afraid if we
added too many more things like don'tget me wrong with the black the black

(25:17):
paper with the white paint spatter soundssuper cool, and I know exactly what
you're talking about, but I'm afraidthat they keep adding these things. And
even if it does look esthetically greatand it doesn't interfere with anything at all,
these other teams are gonna be ableto catch up. Man, Oh
you're not. I don't think aboutthe Yeah, if you're putting the budget
too much into one, they can'treally spread it out like that is always

(25:38):
the thing you got. No,no, no, I think Team Galactic
pays for all the stuff on theirown, like they're just coming off a
bronze medal season for the Marble League. The season ticket passes insane right now,
but believe me, I've tried toget one for next year's Marble League.
Here, Scott, we did talkabout Elon possibly buy Glack, and

(26:00):
I don't know if anything's in thebudget anymore. You know, I haven't
heard any rumors, grants that I'mnot a part of that branch of Team
Goalactic, but I sort of gotI'd be so upset if that happens.
If you were a part of thatteam, probably get fired, you know.
Uh. I kind of only talkedabout in the negative side of the
gimm mix. I should talk aboutmy favorite one, Like I love the

(26:22):
four corner turn, like the electronshell because like it's simple, but the
moment I heard it, like likeI remember my physics classes, Like wait
a minute, is that what Ithink it is? Yeah, Like the
cobalt item has four shells, andlike it's like it's so it's clever,
it's it's genius. It's a simple, simple gimmick, but it has so
much meaning and connection to the actualteam. Like I want more things like

(26:45):
that that actually connect with like thelower and aesthetic of the team, but
not it's not like two over theTop totally wolf. And I'm glad you
brought that up. This is athing that I think JAMR needs to implement
more in Marebula one. It'll makethese circus it's more iconic in a sense.
Is start naming some corners something somethingcrazy happens in that corner. Give

(27:06):
it a great name, you know, like, um, you know,
yeah, was a Paltt Park thathappens, Yeah, the Unrelenting corner.
Yeah, the Unrelenting corner at twoMall Turnpike, like that kind of stuff.
Just start naming corners and and maybeyou name it after a marble that
was super successful that won a race, you know, making a crazy pass

(27:29):
in that corner. Make it iconic, so that like when Greg says that
Marble's coming around this part, hecan name the corner and be like,
oh, and there we go.And it just adds flare and flavor to
the race. Yeah. Man,it's gonna be like really sweet where we
have like butter corner, like likeoh, this is where like they met
each other. Yeah, I mean, just things like that would have a

(27:52):
massive impact on getting people to caremore about some of these tracks as well,
Like there's ones that people didn't reallyknow that much about and those would
be really cool to see more attentionto say. I mean, you don't
even need to name them after likethings that happened. We've only had five
seasons of this. We don't haveto start naming some of these corners,
but we could, like we justget some of the team name in there,

(28:15):
some of like you know, they'reaesthetic in there, like totally after
the accelerator going into the hairpin forstarters accelerators. We've just been talking about
that for a while, Like you'dcall that the starry straightaway or something right
exactly, Sky. I think itwould just add another like it's just another
piece to the puzzle to help everybodyenjoy the race a little bit more.

(28:37):
And remember season seasons pasted in asense, Yeah, for sure. But
let's move past the tracks, becauseyeah, there is a big, glaring,
gaping hole you can talk about.Yep. These are the teams who
belogue here, the teams who don't, the racers who need to get the
fuck out, and the racers whoare pretty much gooded at this point.

(29:03):
I think we could all just uhyou know, speaking about ras way just
a bit that the Raspberry Racers needto be gone. Yeah, they should
never have been invited back in thefirst place. They shouldn't have been invited
back. I don't think anybody herewas saying they should have been Yeah,
I think we're all in agreement onthat one. I've seen several Razzies fans
say they don't want the Razzies.Oh Nana God, I see that cheeky

(29:25):
grin. What the hell are youthinking? I've I will still maintain the
train that they were the second mostegregious cut from season two into season three,
but there was no point in bringingthem back after that cut. You
make the cut, you commit toit, and they did nothing to prove
that, Like, yeah, they'rea dead team and m one now ed
u GJ wrote like a three pageessay about why yeahssionate man Yeah yeah,

(29:49):
and he's the biggest Raspberry Racist Iknow, yeah yeah yeah. Isn't Raspberry
Racers also the only team to havebeen brought back after being cut Yeah yeah,
yeah, oh yeah, And likeI'm a I'm already if you on
the whole idea of bringing teams backafter they've been cut, until all the
other teams have had a shot already. Other than the Snowballs, the Snowballs

(30:11):
are an exception. Yeah, Imean the Snowballs I'd like to be an
exception, but for the stake ofbeing consistent, Yeah, I feel like
should have waited until they'd given everyteam a shot, because we've seen it,
like the Turtle Sliders, nobody wantedthem in and then they turn out
to be actually quite good. Somethings were terrible. Yeah, teams that
are terrible at Marble League can geta chance to show that they're actually really
good at a different sport and getsan actual exposure any frank, pay them

(30:33):
off. Actually, the Raspberry Racesdeserve to get cut just for having their
heads up so far up their assthat they didn't bring Ressie back to the
only good. Yeah. The factthat Ressie got kicked after season one is
the most egregious thing that team hasdone in the entire history of their time
in Mobila one, including accepting theoffer to come back. I mean,
they should just stick to what theyknow. The Reserberry Races are really good

(30:56):
at Marble League and you know,yeah, exactly, Yeah, let yeah,
let them be good at the thingthey're good at. They were usually
very good team. They don't needtheir reputation dragged through the mud by suddenly
being crap at something league team that'sthat's that, just be be dragged through
the bud. Isn't that where thunderboltshit? Yeah? Just in the dirt?
God, because that was why theygoddamn track. I don't know,

(31:19):
man, but like a team thatI think it might be early to say,
but like, the wolf Pack didso terrible that I don't even know
if it counts. Is rookie,like like just rookie in experience like that,
we figured it out so bad.I felt like bringing Captain Jacob.
They tanked by fantasy teams. Iwas doing so, I was actioning so
well, and the main outlier inmy points was the wolf Pack as my

(31:41):
wild pick and oh so bad.Yeah, that is the paint of a
wolf somebody who picked Wolfpack fantacy.I am right there with you, wolf.
I only packed up for you,man, I picked them for me
to. I was like, that'sthe Wolfpack. I'm sorry. I've been
cursing them this whole time because theygot in Indian to go starts. Why

(32:07):
racers instead. I was bad atboth of them. They both did bad.
At least you can make an excusefor this team. They're they're in
their rookie season. Like terms saidthe Thunderbolts, there is no excuse.
This team should never be in anythingracing ever again. When it comes to
JAMR, not Marbula one, not, not anything in the Marble League.

(32:30):
I don't care if they make itto the Marble League. They shouldn't be
allowed to compete in LA. Theyshouldn't be allowed to do any of this.
I don't want to see them racingagainst any ball. I would love
to see the small like sixty billbe or Marble's race against Barbara Rally,
just to you know, reiterate howbad this fucking team. I'd pay money
to watch that. I mean,I mean, there is a reason why

(32:53):
the thunder Bolts got brought back forthis season, and that was Bolts because
coming into the season, Bolt wasstill a top ten racer for all time
points, has a lot of podiumsunder their belt. Really, we just
saw the prim effect again. Yeah, because good lords, what the hell
happens to Bolt between the last threeseasons and this one to turn them into

(33:15):
Mary, I put the Thunderbolts inthe same bin I put the Midnight Whisps
in and they're a lot better thanthe Whisps as well, which is that
they have one marble that's really showedsome good stuff that had a god awful
season this year, and they've beenhaving a godawful Marble League, right,
So it's just kind of like alet him take a break and reform just

(33:36):
everything and come back eventually, butnot next time, No man, never
for both Like since I'm not likethen the Thunderbolts, I haven't actually checked.
This is both another victim of marbleswapping. I don't really look into
that ship. Does it actually matterwith the Thunderbolt term we look yeah,

(33:58):
blue Eye, yes, but thereare no killing like marbles have clear stats.
Red Eye has been the best racer, Yellow Eye has been a good
follow up. Blue Eye has beengreat at elemental tracks, sand, ice
water, underwater, and then GreenEye has been a good all around her
for the team. They are veryclear stats for every single one side isay
killer on the track, and WhiteEye's gonna be the next one coming in.

(34:21):
I get it. I understand thisis like a big revelation. Wolf
I love you, but I withthis, like, who cares all the
fucky Thunderbolts suck top ten and alltime points? Yeah, Hazy did as
well, and so did Smogy,Like they're right up there with him.
And it's just like, if we'regonna complain about Bolts not coming in,

(34:43):
why the fuck did the Hazers makea whole new rookie team. Yeah,
I'm still mad about that. Well, so here's the thing, guys,
I think that this is definitely somebig bias against the Thunderbolts because we have
a team that we cared near anddearly about in Marbula one with the very
similarity I eat Snowy and the Snowballs. Yep, we want Snowy back,

(35:05):
but the Snowballs got cut because everybodythat wasn't Snowy wasn't pulling their weight.
And how you explained Team Primary,well, Primary is the weird exception to
this rule, because they had Theyalways seem to have one marble except for
this year, one marble that doesdog shit and then one marble that does
incredibly well, and they've managed tostay in. Yeah, the Snowballs things

(35:27):
reminds me. I'm makes about thePinkie staying. I don't think they could
have come back, but now theyhad at least a good first half.
I don't know. But honestly,after this season, and I can't realize
I've never said this before. Ifthe Pinkies and the Snowballs looking alike is
the reason why the Snowballs are here, why they ever? Loving hell did
you make me watch Stinger and Mochaat the same time on a track because

(35:49):
they both? Yeah, I mean, the Pinkies definitely didn't deserve to be
brought back for this season. Theonly reason they were was because of their
Mobile League win on Yeah, itstill shouldn't be a factor, but of
course it is. They're famous.Yeah, but after this season. Honestly,

(36:09):
if this had been their first season, I wouldn't have been opposed to
them coming back. Frankly, Like, they still don't have any podium finishes,
but the Bumblebees didn't have any untilseason three. So like, honestly,
I can see the Pinkies returning andwouldn't be that mad. Yeah,
I'd be bad if they came backfrom Barbia. One. I don't see
them doing well at Barble League.If they come back from Barbia a one,

(36:30):
it'd better be just sitting in thestands. Well, get secure,
guarded my favorite as a fusion place. Yeah, I do not see a
reason to actually bring them back,but a team that I do want a
seed back. That's the Chocolate Tears, go super saying all that shit.

(36:55):
Hell yeah, if gunned to myhead, I was told if I could
all cut one team from the circuit, I'm sorry everybody, The Raspberry Racers
are staying here because I want toact bias. Piece of shit. Oh
yeah, that's absolutely biased, that'sobviously the incorrect take. But please,

(37:15):
can we cut the Chocolate Tears already? Why they chalk at Boca bring back
Bond Bond, get walk on thetrack. I think that's their manager right
Outlook, term, there's been alot, there was a there was some
first that happened this year to beat the Raspberry Racers is the first team

(37:36):
to come back from being cut.And I don't think that Bond Bond deserves
to be the first Marble to comeback after being cut. Absolutely, Nope,
Nope, you guys are wrong,because the only Marble that deserves to
be back after being cut obviously rapidly. We don't need the Savage Bears to
do this well rapidly. I'm ahuge back Yellow Eye, Bring back Yes,

(38:05):
Yeah, bring back yellow Eye.Oh, green Eyes gonna do great
justice. Yellow blue Eyes gonna hithim with a really cool handoff. And
then the crazy cat's eyes are yellowEyes is gonna kill it. And Pybe
it was talking about bringing Pinky Eye. It's like they're think he's gonna disease
the track. It's gonna be great. That's a good idea. I think

(38:28):
it's a great idea. A BlackEye I could see maybe coming in,
but then he just like PTSD wouldkick in. I don't know. He
sounds kind of violent. He can'tbe more of a greedious monster than Blue
Eye and black Guy. He's killinggame. Black Eye his name because he's
the egregious monster. I don't knowabout this, Yeah, I mean,

(38:51):
if we're bringing anybody back, it'smy opinion. No, it's Yellow Yeah,
who's that? I don't even knowthat more other than the one time
he broke a track like kick gat, what has Bond Bond done? Made
a whole song about it. Soyeah, Well I realized that was all
you had to do to get intomarbular guys, no, he drop it.

(39:15):
Butter bolts in here. They didless. I didn't realize the song
is what made it happen. Yeah, moving on from the chocolates, you
do deserve to get cut a couplemore questionable ones. In my opinion,
Shinese woman bumblebees. I'd say they'refine. I'd say keep Shining Swarm or
fine. They had a terrible season. I mean they had a terrible season.
They were in fifteen. Why areyou going to keep them around?

(39:36):
So what hector? My thought wason this man, get rid of the
Shining Swarm, Bring the Constrictors innext year. That is a team I
would like to see. The teamthat has done nothing in marbut in anything
Marble World. They have. They'vebeen in Maniacs, but like does that
count for anything. Let's see whatthe constructors have. Bring them up.
It's very importantly yellow. I meanTiesta was there, so I get it.

(40:00):
It was pretty. But other thanthat, I think this team deserves
an opportunity. Hopefully they get ashot at next year's Marble League. Um,
because I figured they'll be in theshowdown this year. Maybe now they're
not adding any more, so that'swhat I mean. We need to see
the constructors. Please please bring thisteam to Marbula one next year. I

(40:21):
can get behind bringing the Marble Maniacsteams into Mobula one. Yeah, but
not until all the Marble Manique teamsfirst a great keyword into Goo Stars.
Decker does bring up a good pointwith the Maniacs teams, and like we
eventually we are going to run outof teams like to add into the series.
We have a grip of them,and I made a I made a
fun tier list a few weeks agothat you know, obviously the effect was

(40:45):
everyone arguing with me, but theintention was there's only like thirteen fourteen ish
teams that I considered decent enough toinclude in the series. And this is
a twenty team competition. You're goingto have mediocre teams in a competition anyway.
Which isn't like the strongest document forkeeping the shining form in. But
it's like, I think the baris a little too high in the community

(41:07):
sentiment usually, and I don't everreally want to cut more than like a
quarter of the lineup. Oh god, please stop, dude, your list.
You're just asking for people to arguewith you. And it's always a
terrible move because it's just like,hey, this is my piggy band.
I like it. Man, don'tstoppee. We're missing, like we are

(41:27):
missing a big fucking team that justthese get the fuck out of here,
and that's the gliding Glaciers. Theyare not gliding for glory. Yep,
this is a terrible team. I'mtwelve, what are you talking about?
I have the worst track this season, and it's like, why the fuck
are they even here? They beatthe Pinkies, Decker hold On real quick
who competed four the gliding Glaciers thisyear, Decker Iceberg one and Bengo.

(41:53):
No, they fucking glaciers. Whowas it last year Glacier Glacier got kicked?
I think Alpine they all suck getthem out of here. Wasn't there
one that was in the top tenor the top six team last year?

(42:13):
I don't know. I think soyeah yeah. Like the problem with the
gliding Glaciers has never been that they'rebad. They're just kind of forgettable because
they don't tend to win races veryoften. They're like the mini Mania.
Yes, Like I don't I don'tsee the gliding Glaciers as being bad enough.
To cut. They're just kind ofmade and thick. Quite nice things
to point about. Having some moremid teams, they get to stay in.
Someone is going to be mid.That's how standings work. Video.

(42:37):
One of the teams that I'm kindof questioning on with this is the Bumblebees,
because like they've been trending downwards,but they still have some potential.
Like that's an interesting one to me. They're hosting Marble League. The reason
why they were in I believe,like that's my opinion. I mean,

(42:58):
it's clearly not because Bumble has beena very good racer over the last two
seasons, which is why bumb willgo roll back. Oh term, I
would completely disagree. If that wasthe reason, then they would have had
their track featured in M one,whether it be Hive Drive or um doesn't.
The Bump didn't, Bumblebees, HighDome Gnome, whether it's one of
those two tracks, I feel likeit reason they were in Marvel the one

(43:21):
is to get excited people excited forMarble League. They would have said,
hey, there's gonna be event hereat Honeydome, Hive Drive other track,
and you know this is like gethig form Marbula one they're sorry Marble League
guys, because you know we're we'rehosting. Okay, so one, you
don't need the track when they're hostingsixteen events coming up right after Marbula one

(43:43):
two, there's still that track isstill under construction because what is it?
High drive? Is it honey doome? Nobody does? Yeah, I could
bind the two because that's what theteam did. Ray drive honey hive drive
dome dome sounds pretty cool. I'vedriven them. I don't know. Honey

(44:04):
honey drive. Oh, I likethat a lot, but we don't.
They don't need to host a trackbecause they're hosting the next sixty events after
that, plus the showdown. Andthis is also coming back to fu conspiracy
theory about Bumble get goddamn second lastrace. We're talking about the hype going

(44:24):
into the Marble League. I don'tbuy into that conspiracy theory because Bumble's been
a good racer in the past,which is a good enough to bring them
back for this season and be enoughto explain why Bumble would get second in
a race? Was he this year? Okay, just because someone's not a
good racer this year doesn't mean theydeserve to get cut maybe they got second

(44:46):
in the last I didn't say heshould get cut. I'm saying why they
didn't have the track? Well,night, that's not what you were talking
about just two minutes ago. Yeah, literally what I was saying, why
would they have Honey Driver or youknow, you know, Hive Drive.
Yeah, yeah, Hive Dome.I get it. When they're hosting the

(45:07):
next sixteen events, why would theyhave that. We have a one hundred
percent track record of teams hosting theMarble League not having a track in the
in the preceding Marbula one season.So not in season three? Wasn't in
seasons three three? Can overload themwith the ship because you're going to their
own country for the Marble League.Yeah, they're alway spending a whole lot

(45:29):
of money. Yeah, it's likeFIFA Super Brown moving on from Yeah all
right, So what were the surprisesyou guys think this season? Obviously for
me Hazers percenters, Yeah, Morbomom was also. I do want to

(45:52):
talk about Hazers a little bit becauseI actually recently re listened to the m
M one roster reveal from before andone came out. Guys, we were
we were like because it shouldn't haveworked, but it did. We were
like, guys, why did wenot bring Smoggie back? Why even keep
this team in at this point?This isn't anything like the Hazers. We

(46:12):
know, why is Hazy in thespace hospital? Why are we not bringing
back Smoggie? He was like theonly good thing we had these last couple
of years, and here we are, holy shit eating our words. Oh
damn, I mean we're only eatingsome of our words, because, like,
I still maintain that cutting Smoggy wasa worse idea than Yeah, Misty
was not good enough to match Smoggystandards. They were close to each other,

(46:38):
and like they're standings right, likeits Misty finished, was it's twelfth
and then Smoty finished. I havethe standings hit Misty finished in sixteen,
sixteenth. Yeah, but it wasclose and Smogy last year we finished in
tenth. So they're kind they're kindof close, kind of close. But
a top ten is a lot betterthan a top twenty. Sure, Okay,

(46:58):
this is a good point. Howmany points did he get? I
can't name that. I've my headand we can't really compare that because there
were more races last season with theHazers. I kind of maintained that it
was a bad decision that worked well. Yeah, I mean wells Hazy was
not a bad decision because you canmake the argument that it was one bad

(47:20):
season off the two good seasons fora good marble. Cutting Hazy from Marbulo
one made sense. Cutting Hazy fromthe whole team didn't exactly. We've gone
over that like a hundred times,because it's still true. No, So
when we talked about it, Ithought this was the worst coaching decision of
all time. Clearly I shouldn't bea coach because this guy knew what he
was doing bringing up two rookies,especially Cloudy. Cloudy was Rookie of the

(47:44):
Year this year. This guy knewhe had marbles in the farm system that
could go out there and compete inMarbula one, and he went out there
and put his basically job on theline with these two guys, and they
banked it out of the park.Cloudy was the Rookie of the Year.
This was a coaching masterpiece. Handsdown to the Hazers. I'm happy for
them. They shouldn't make any morechanges. Keep the roster, as I

(48:07):
agree, and that this roster changewas probably the correct decision because the reason
we were shitting on the Hazers whenthe roster reveal is because that team crashed
and burned harder than any team inthe history of the league. I think
what they needed was the hard reset, and like Smoggy included there, an
entire Marble League rosters sucked. That'swhy they're relegated in Showdown again this year.

(48:27):
So they went for the hard resetand Misty. Misty obviously choked at
the end. That's the that's thememe that everyone's been running with for good
reasons. Cloudy obviously was the pointsgetter, but they also did choke.
And it's not like Cloudy didn't playa role in them falling off the podium.
Like maybe brings Maggie backs. Maggieis pretty good. I don't know,
but honestly, I feel like thekeeping this team not decision isn't as

(48:52):
black and white as the numbers makeit look. Honestly, I don't think
you can go wrong either way.Agreed. I think Nana Gun is pretty
much at the nail on the headhere. Like Smoggie is a good Marble
He's he started off great, buthe'd had been on the down and down,
and I think the hard reset wasabsolutely the best move because at the

(49:12):
end of the day, yes,Smoggy was your veteran, Smoggy was your
good you know, top ten Marblegoing into the season. But guys,
the mojo wasn't there, the teammind space, a headset wasn't there.
If you if you're going in withyou know, a veteran Marble that he's
used to a different system, yougotta you just gotta to get the rid
of the whole system and you gottastart new. And I think that's what

(49:34):
Smoky thought, and I think thatwas the correct decision in the grand scheme
of things. Did it Could ithave been better? Could they have podium?
Should they have podium? Probably?Yes, yes, But you know
that's just the Hazers being the Hazers. And I think a fourth place after
the tragic year in Marble League theyhad, and previously Marble lead Marble the
one season, I think you gotto take that with a grain of stall
and say, yeah, this isback on the right direction, this is

(49:58):
where our team needs to be rightnow. Underdogs. I looked it up.
Smoggie got fifty three points and Missygot forty, but it's likely to
important to remember is that Misty racedin one fewer race than Smoggy, So
thirteen points is a big gap tomake up for sure, but that the

(50:19):
gap and skill I think is actuallya lot closer than we probably give them
credit for. Great point. Agreed, Yeah, that's that's all fair.
Personally, I'm of the opinion thatCloudy and Smoggy would be the best due
for the next season. But Iwon't be upset or annoyed if they bring
Missy back, because Missy is stillgood. I just personally think Smoggy was
a better call. A'sh like freehazy. Oh yeah, I know.

(50:40):
We went around and shouted out arebig surprises. I'm kind of surprised no
one said team Primary because like,oh right, yeah, I was hoping
to get to them. That's howsurprising it is. I forget every time
that that happened. Okay, Ican talk about T Primory. I love
two Privory. I just really lovetwo Primary where we know. The thing
I love about the way this championshipshook out is the fact that we have

(51:04):
six different teams on the three podiumslots of each championship and that really goes
to show that Marbula one is anindividual championship as much as its team on
as well, but also the Teamone really like it's it's a team event
that has made up of a bunchof individual races, and the fact that
the Savage Speeders, Team Primary andArrangers made it up there means that those
marbles weren't the best of the best, but their teams were, like they

(51:28):
work together, bounce off each otherreally really well, and it's really nice
after all of the cube means thatTeam Primary is one of the teams that
really drag themselves up there. Also, we really just the Savage Speeders.
Last episode, Good job on you, great roster change. I'm yeah,
I'm kind of easiest water change inhistory. It didn't take much thought.

(51:52):
Yeahs, so you replace them withI suppose, but I'm gonna I'm actually
gonna say this maybe as a bitof a hot take. I wasn't surprised
with Team Primary getting up there,because I knew it was going to happen
eventually. They always have this thingwhere they get one marble who's really good,
in one marble who's really bad.Eventually, with their pool of marbles
they'll get one where it's just twothat are good or one that's good in

(52:15):
ones that's like mediocre at best.It's like they've just they always have one
Marble that's holding them back. Andif they can just figure it out once
and have one Marbled who's really reallygood and one Marble who's just rema,
like, they're gonna win, They'regonna win, They're gonna be really high
up in the standings. And theyfinally got it after five seasons. Yeah,
exactly, And like I'm more shockedthat they had never won a race

(52:37):
forty one races. But the onlyalso, the only grape I had with
what Nanagan said there is that heput Team Primary alongside the Savage Speeders and
the O Rangers, champions of Marbuloone in previous seasons. Team Primary still
does not deserve to be up therewith those I'm sorry, I was just

(53:00):
talking about this season's podium. Idon't think they're on the same I know,
I know, I still don't thinkthey even deserve to be spoken about
in the same context as those teams. I know about the podium and stuff,
They're not even close. Those teamsare God Tier. Primary is just
trying to get to midpack right now, right now, burrito because it's delicious.

(53:24):
Yeah good, hang the where yougot? Yeah, I mean I
disagree about them not deserving to bespoken about in the same context when you're
looking at this season. Yeah,okay as a whole. As a whole,
I do agree, But I feellike with the team they've got right
now, Arab and Arima, theywork well together. They're two very solid

(53:45):
marbles, and I could see themgetting up if they stay at the level
they've been up this season, theycould easily, like within a season or
two, get up to a similarlevel of respecting mobular one. Sure,
they've won one race. How canyou say that? But look at how
am my seconds and third because theyhad a lot of other poddamn it,
the badass Mallard has not won arace and it's still a top five marble

(54:08):
of all time. No, no, you'll have to beat around the bus.
There's no way Mallard is top fiveof all time without having won a
single race. Yeah, it's notall time points, Yes, okay,
all time points, that's that's whatyou're gonna look at. That means nothing.
Point systems have changed over the yearsand He's been in every season for

(54:28):
four seasons and beat and beat ina lot of other marbles that have also
been in all four seasons. I'dhave wins and still never won a championship.
Yeahs they being a Mallard billy andgreen Dog. Sorry Wolf, I
a new billy song coming out.It's gonna be fucking It is good.
Actually, i've heard it's really good. I hate it. It's really good.

(54:52):
That's the preview for the podcast.It's gonna be fucking sick. Sorry
to derail, but I do wantto fight Hector on this. Hector Yellow
Eye is better than Mallard. Yeah, what I just said, the pee
is that way you say. Wewere talking about Team Primary while you we
were talking about things that were ontrack, we were talking about we were
talking about how Team Primary, atleast a mean Decker's opinion wasn't a big

(55:13):
surprise. The great thing about CrazyCat's Eyes Green Eye gonna play all the
best season next year. I don'tneed I wanted to defend Primary. Arab
and Rima both finished the top ten, and they were only like one spot
away from each other. Like that'sa huge level consistency that I like.
Yeah, that's actually it's the mostconsistent aside from the Marbles, who did

(55:36):
terrible, but that's not really aconsistency you want to see. So honestly,
I think Primary it deserves a lotof respect for this season because that's
a feat that's an incredible feed.Yeah, and like that's why I think
if they can keep this up,they will fairly quickly rise to be considered
on the same level in Mobula oneas teams like the Savage s featers and
arranges. Like, they're not thereyet, but if they stay it where

(55:58):
they out away where it been outof the season, they could easily be
there. I do want to agreewith what Sky was saying about Team Primary
was going to get there eventually,I thought. I also want to make
clear that that is the the Marbleroulette thing that worked for Team Primary is
absolutely not something that every single teamshould be pride why I completely agree.

(56:20):
All I was saying is that theywere playing the game and they were gonna
win eventually. I know, Idon't black stop playing roulette. I just
said that because as soon as thewords are uttered into the atmosphere, they're
going to fly over to some otherpoor chap probably to the Cobalts coach and
they're gonna make some big ass whoopseeagain, and you're not cut Cerulian.

(56:42):
Oh god, you're assuming that peoplelisten to this podcast. They don't.
I do know what happened after yousaid they should be blue. It was
a great mast Sky corrected me withhis burrito buth over there. He said,
he gets the best hand doobs.He doesn't do the job. He

(57:02):
gets the job. You know,we got wolf just going away from primary.
Uh, my big surprise is beingMomo. Like it's because it's more
than just a Momo actually being theone to win it, which is surprising
that of itself. But the waythey won is insane. Six points,
then eighty five, then eighty four. It was a one point difference.

(57:23):
Literally every single position in the finalrace mattered, and that's what makes that
race probably one of the best racesthe season, even if it was lacking
a lot of things to make itfeel like a true grand finale for the
season, the actual racing itself,it led to just such a tense moment
race for every single second, everyposition mattered, the fact that Momo wasn't

(57:45):
in there, and like it wasthe best awesome. Yeah, Momo is
like Luigi, I was just happyfor Momo. This, this is what
Momo needed, especially after so manymediocre seasons, you know, sixteen finish
on the year twenty whatever it was. In season three, Memo always be

(58:07):
Yeah, it's no, I'm justtalking about Momo as an individual. Marmo,
Mom Momo here they like, thiswas huge for them, capturing that
Racers Championship. I think has thisis the team not team primary. Team
Momo is the team to watch outfor, moving up into that talk with

(58:27):
the Savage Speeders and the Old Rangersand the Crazy Cat's Eyes. Team Momo
is getting there because now Momo asan individual is showing that they can be
a great Marble winning the Racers Championship. It's not just about Memo anymore.
Momo can can be up there withthe best of them. So I think
Team Momo as a whole is thebig surprise for me this year, jumping
into that upper echelon of Marble teams. Yeah, I can get behind that.

(58:52):
I do want to point out aswell, like that was a question
about whether or Momo would actually getcut for season four because Mammos always been
completely overshadowing them and they've not reallybeen matching that. And then just to
shut down the haters with winning thechampionship in such an amazingly impressive fashion as
well, you know what, Iwas going to save all these questions.

(59:14):
So again, but we have aquestion for a wolf from Babo kai Oh
okay, and she said hashtag Iknow Wolf was all the show, but
it was never in any doubt.Bobo is the best Marble ever. You
all have to me, but yourgoats got beaten by a barble who did
literally don't think of the finale.That's so embarrassing. If you're anyone but

(59:37):
Bobo, hello, ll get good. She does have a question, but
okay, I was saying that thatwas a question that's already a question.
She said, also a question forour favorite commander. If you had all
control of this season five rosters,how would you you hate it? Will

(01:00:00):
be Bow going into season five inlight of Bobo's championship, do you trust
their past results and keep them ordo you decide that they were carried and
try somebody you do. That's atough one because I'm I am pretty sure
that Nemo was swapped this season forthe mistaken. So if we left Nemo
in, it would probably put upthe same performance. So maybe try Mommo.

(01:00:22):
Honestly, when we actually not seenMommo p race yet not mistaken.
Dope, you haven't. It's alwaysbeen Momo and Nemo. Yeah, oh
yeah, that's right, that this'sever changed. It was like three other
members. If you can try outhere, So I think if realistically you
do it, you bring a bowif you want to have a little fun
with it, and jam margins alittle bit crazier with the courses you bring

(01:00:44):
in Bobo bo Bo. That guycould joke eat quarter. That guy will
get knocked unconscious right after you eatquarter, but he's gonna fucking bake the
landing. It'll be the winner inour books. I think. Otherwise,
maybe Bibo stays it. Yeah,because this duo have been together for four
seasons and aside from the first season, which means improvement is happening. They're

(01:01:06):
consistently in. They're constantly pushing intolike the top half of the top half.
That's a clunky way to put it, but you know what I mean.
That means. That means it's aroster that works, it's a team
dynamic that works, and there's alot to be said, idiot white eye
that you don't mess with the teamdynamic that works. And like going back,
the reason Primary had to play rouletteis because the worst member garbage every

(01:01:30):
single season. When your marble isnot super garbage, you don't need to
play roulette like that all the time. And there's so many teams that have
paid because of it. Why Ithat I stop yelling the bike damn it.
I'm never talking to an otherwise,Like there's not a reason to kick

(01:01:50):
Memo off of this. I stillthis is still a stupid take, but
I still maintain that's why bolts badnow is the dynamic just got missed with
on that team. Mama Mama isgonna be so sweet on the track,
especially once they get taken out astretcher. I would say, keep Memo.
Memo's spend good every season except thisone, and even this season they

(01:02:16):
weren't. It's just mid, Yeah, just mid, Like I think Memo
can. I think Memo might haveto put in a bit of extra practice,
but it's still be easier than trainingup an entire new member. Yeah,
like yeah, trust in the pastresults if they've just had like one
mid season as opposed to a reallygood season. I was kind of mentioned
one other big thing about that theyjust like, I think this is not

(01:02:37):
mistaken. This is the first timeMomo has been on the podium since twenty
sixteen. Was I think, wow, unless unless you count the showdown,
You're right, yes, all right, showed up. But I guess like
a big competition that like people likeBrennan would say, actually matters. They
weren't even on the podium in twentysixteen. They were fourth four. Yeah,

(01:02:58):
yeah, they were fourth. Ohthat's right. They were on the
podium in twenty six Remember when shootright right, I'm like, man,
it's been so long, ever done. This is like their first major podium
then oh yeah it was their bocome on, yo, this is it
just got cooler to me. They'vebeen on this upper trend recently. So
I think they actually have a decentchance because like they've shown like it's almost

(01:03:21):
been like a completely linear increase inskill and performance over the years. I
think there could be a big yearfor marbleigue for them. I don't know,
doesn't correlate, It normally doesn't correlate, but I've seen the number I've
been watching it every single year andlike it almost like it does dip a
little bit bit. For the mostpart, it's been going up the performance
and everything. Okay, now,I know this isn't a math podcast,

(01:03:44):
but you can't go lower than first. Oh you can. You can't.
Sky numbers don't work, you can'thave you can't go negative first. You
can't go negative first. So Ipredicted downward trend after this. Yes,
guy, you are a notorious Momohater though, because you see I've been
trying to build some bridges with TeamMomo. Recently, I've picked them on

(01:04:06):
a fantasy team as a resu ofa sudden individual. Oh I kind of
like them. Oh no, Ididn't have them on my fantasy team Formula
one. I don't really care.But I don't think we're gonna see a
repeat first, is what I'm sayingit. Even if we did see a
repeat first, come on, woff, that's a horizontal line. Well,

(01:04:26):
like, do you if you valuelike the individual first place on the same
level as winning first and marble leavein Short's horizontal? But I think winning
first individually is not the same asthe whole team all together performing phenomenally.
That is a fair point, Butthat is that would be that would be
wild, Yeah, it would,it would. I don't that's saying they're
gonna win this year, but Ithink they're going to do better than they've
ever done before. What is thebest performance they've had out of here?

(01:04:48):
Fourth? Fourth? We just talkedabout it. Also, we're gonna have
the end May podium if we gota question from Human eighty six. He
said, which Marble and Prey seeyou this season the most? And why
is it ghost Marble? And Ithink he's referring to this year, So
why is it ghost marble? Likeof all like everything? Yeah, uh,

(01:05:14):
I mean it's generic and I justtalk about but pretty sure it is
still momo. I like like theyliterally were on the same level as Red
Eye by just like a two pointsgoodbye y'all waving is not good bye?
Well, actually that's really good podcasting. Do you have to leave meant to
be great podcasting? Is that whatyou're saying? Acting is good podcasting?

(01:05:36):
Yeah? I love y'all guys.On the next one Wolf it was a
pleasure past. It's a pleasure man. That's okay. I guess my yeah,
my most surprised Marble. I guessit would be Momo just because like
just like to have them both win. But to be so close to red
Eyes not something I ever thought Iwould see. I guess to be less

(01:05:59):
Gennari Like, uh, I mean, if I already talking about Primary being
impressive marble rally, my memory isnot doing great. I like. Also
the Ghost Marble was good. GhostMarble was great. Marsoe was amazing.
Ghost Marble. I think it hitfourth place in one of the races.
Also knocked out like a bunch ofmarbles at one point, which is like

(01:06:19):
the opposite. Yeah exactly, anduh yeah, because they knocked free enough
of them that it's they just stilldid better than the Safety Marble than that
regard. No, it's from theweapon of destruction. Yeah, like also
lesaw from the Safety Marble compared tothe Ghost Marble is the Safety Marbles are
getting abducted. They're going to space, and that's true accelerator and we don't

(01:06:41):
need that. Yeah, hospital theyare going up there and they're becoming better
Safety Marbles. Yeah, maybe theylook at a beer or where it's like
safety is, well, we dependedon you, and then they come back.
I feel like the Safety Marbles justneed to be trained by the Ghost
Marble then they'll actually do their jobsproperly. We didn't even see the Safety

(01:07:02):
Marble once, yeah, seas,which I think that's a that's a great
yeah exactly, sky like that meansthey did a really good job of design
the tracks, and part of Ithink it's mainly due to the comparable being
atle bit taller. It's not agreater incline, so it's very hard,
harder for the momentum to stop.Very fair. But at the same time,
we did see Security Marbles tackle thefunk out of that one guy.

(01:07:25):
They did, and they did.Yeah, And I think we to separate
the Safety Marble from the Security Marblebecause those guys aren't even on the same
playing field. Yeah, not eventhe same player. Yeah, because it
was having to start us, youknow. Yeah, we trade him right
in the in the start us accelarator, the Security Marble is you better watch
out the vacuum. Yeah. Ididn't see him quip with ray guns though,

(01:07:48):
Well, we don't pull out theguns unless it necessary. Listen.
Yeah, okay, see you inAmerica then, But was that a goddamn
space Also if you think about it. The only try that actually had an
in tracking major of any kind wasthe Stars Accelerator, So it doesn't it
tally either actually have worse security.Necessarily, gravity's a little lower. It's

(01:08:11):
pretty easy to just jump the borderswide open. That's a good question.
I've been lost for like the pastfifteen minutes. All right, Well,
sorry about Pitt, but well ifwe have a question from Kubis. Okay,
wow, I got a lot ofquestions. Jeez, I might actually
need it. I might need somehelp with this. It is your name

(01:08:34):
off of Star Trek. No,no, no, I'll be told this
story on this on this show.Okay, I'll try and keep it shorter.
Uh. So, back in highschool, I believe it was tenth
grade, I was in the chessclub and sometimes we were passing time the
members. So yeah, he's prettydecent too. Uh. Some of our

(01:09:00):
members would like do other games whilewe're waiting for UH to do something.
Or first got bored of playing chessover and over again, and two of
the members were playing uh like matchwith the gathering. UH and a good
friend of mine, Uh, helike, I see one of the cars
is like a fish, and solike he did the class and joke like,
hey, hey, Jared, like, what do you call it?
Thirst on an? I and Ithat stupid joke. But then my stupid

(01:09:26):
brain looked like, um. Theguy right next to him then played a
card called wolf, and my stupidbrain thought of this and that this is
the stupidest thing ever. But Ihave to say it because that it's like,
hey, what do you call awolf without an L? A wolf's
It makes no sense. But that'swhere the day came from. And then

(01:09:46):
the commander part is, we justrecently learned about North Korea and for some
reason, we made a joke aboutlike we would like the offensive whatnot,
Like we made a joke about like, oh, we would treat North Korea
is real. I thought it wasjust you know, it's crazy. But
we made a joke that we'd havelike an army of wolfs that would then
go under the electric fence to takeout Jim Jong hoon or something. So

(01:10:10):
he was general Wolf and I'm commander. And that's why my icon muscle is
what it is on discord. It'sthat that's actually of the card. You
guys are gonna take out Jim congLike that man's an asshole. I mean,
hey, more power. Apparently Jakubosthought that this was a Star Trek
reference, so I'm not gonna bethis shit, but he said, ashtak,

(01:10:36):
I know Wolf is all the show, but Commander I personally find out
radus how polished, boring gimmick listthe tracks were of this season pathetic?
Tell me which gibbick would you add? The tracks? Cling on paintsticks at
every turn or live the track orfiery pits us wow, uh, he

(01:11:01):
said, told me like I asked, as Holf pronounced. He said,
act like you were having a seedhere. So I am not seen the
original Star Trek show. I've seen, like me is two three and five.
I've been meaning to at some point. It's I'm a science nerd,
so's it's something you gotta do atsome point. But I do not know

(01:11:23):
most of what you just described.I think I've seen the cling on paintstick.
If it is what I think itis, I think you're on the
Star Trek thing that obviously don't knowabout. I don't know that is,
he said. Uh, he findsout ragious polish, bory gimbic liss tracks
for this season. I guess addressingthat, um, some of them benefited

(01:11:47):
from it. Honestly, I startlike, but some of the awesome ned
change at all? Oh Raceway wasuntouched. U shoot, how I found
its name The Cobalts track, whichwas express ray like that one was untouched.
Both of them were basically perfect fromtheir design and they didn't need to
be change at all. No,that's w Yeah, stars Eccelevrator. I

(01:12:09):
think it needs at least something toadd to this aesthetic if you're going to
take away the tubes, because whilethey were terrible for racing, they looked
nice. Tubes been a space aesthetic. I like, what like space elevators,
Uh, the bridges between space ships. It's see through walls because it
sci Fi mobe beyond. Added airlockto barbular one. Yeah, why they

(01:12:31):
got recharge their air tanks as they'reracing. They can't race in space forever.
They got a recharge somewhere. Makestar Dust Accelerator the Fidelite for every
season, and we blow up aLego death start Ye Funck Star trek Ap
Star Wars Baby, come at meto Google. Also we got something for

(01:12:53):
Jetty. Not even a question,but she said yes Wolf Slae BGBT appearance
one of my favorite episodes. Needmore Marble commentary from the Commander, Well,
thank thank you, Jenny, Iappreciate it. Hell yeah, wolf
Man, you're the fucking man.I fucking love you. Thanks. I

(01:13:15):
just I'm just being me. Idon't Yeah, that's what we love about.
Yeah, thank you for hosted theshow. No prom always glad to
take the reins. Can I geta question in Wolf? Since? I
sure? All right? Um soI'm not one hundred You might have covered
this a little bit because I gothere a little late. But as far

(01:13:36):
assuming MSWP is no more, assumingBrennan decides he just doesn't ever want to
do any more Marble podcasting ever,again, what is the future of Commander
Wolf. Obviously you're allowed here withinreason, whenever you want. But what
is what is the future of CommanderWolf in the Marble world? Within reason?

(01:13:57):
I'm just expecting you to never leavethis group, Jack, Well,
you can't have them seven all thetime. Term in the Marble world specifically,
well, I mean like whether it'spodcasting, whether it's just you know,
you're gonna vibe and discords? Whatwhat is the what is Commander Wolf?
What's gonna be Barnie again because that'sdid you remember me? Is that

(01:14:17):
extra in that one movie? Iwant? You know, yeah, for
the Marble community specifically falling into thatone first. Uh, I feel like
I would definitely try and stay around. I might try and actually engage with
discussions more because, like, becausethe podcast takes up so much of my

(01:14:41):
time ready and like I'm already takinglike an hour plus discussing the show every
single week, I feel drained andI don't want to go talk about it
for more hours on end. Buthaving that my life might actually give me
the energy to do that. Uh. Maybe I would do like my own
small like if I felt like thedesire to come back, maybe do my
own special pdcast where it's kind ofcomeing in and say my brief thoughts,
like yeah, yeah, it wasthat one guy who used to do YouTube

(01:15:04):
videos in twenty twenty. I can'tremember what his name was, but maybe
something like that, I know whoyou're talking about. I do know who
you're talking about. I can't rememberwho that was though, Uh it was
it was the new show Marble ReportFull Sports Center Ship, right, Yeah,
they were that which was start outthat way. He started off like

(01:15:26):
just event recamp. Yeah, Iknow it didn't. Um I kind of
stopped watching after he got you know, all crazy with it. But I
got too big time for you know, he got too like oh he got
too far away from the point.But um no, So like that's that's
kind of the main thing. Iwas just kind of leading on. I
was like, are you planning ongetting back into the Marble sports podcasting world,

(01:15:46):
because I'm sure you've noticed we've hadsome recent up and coming podcasts,
like we've had Marbles to Nights madea revival, We've had the Marble Cast
is now a thing now, Likeare you trying to join non jump on
that train with the departure of mswupor you maybe just trying to get be
like a free agent guest more orless the special guest star. Uh well,

(01:16:11):
here's the thing. I remember whenI first started, like I kind
of had the idea like we arelike solo in this and like actually,
way early on, they were twopeople who tried starting in our podcasts around
like our early like teens or twenties. One of them did one episode and
quit, another one did two andthen quit. Uh. So that was
it's always been like I feel likewe might just be the once who innovate

(01:16:32):
the whole scene and like just takeit to the top. But after having
all these years and like having myinterests involve and be discovered because this led
me to discover my love of usingmy voice for singing, voice acting,
and all these crazy things I neverwould have dreamed of, that my passion
for for podcasting and Marble sports haskind of diminished, especially since I put
so much work into it. It'skind of like become a job almost,

(01:16:55):
which is never fun. Uh,And but I've come to me except now
at this point that like MSW wasnever meant to be the one to get
to the end they walked. Solet it roll Marbles today and everyone else
could run. We set the groundworkfor everyone, and we get We introduced
the idea of doing a podcast forMarbles, and the fact that this has

(01:17:19):
led to so many people being inspiredto do their own, whether it be
from admiration or in the case ofrandall, spite for how bad it was.
I guess it ultimately has led tothe creations of things like this,
like I don't know if you guyswould have met each other outside this podcast.
I think like the fact that we'vemaybe led to a friend group being

(01:17:41):
formed and that then has connected hundredsof other people together. And like,
you're connected the community in a waythat we never were because we just were
never had the time or interest tobe on social media integrate. You guys
are the absolute pinnacle of what Iwanted from this and I could not be
prouder. All right, so Wolffuck off? Thank you though, that's

(01:18:02):
very nice. So before we uhwe we get the hell out of here.
What I appreciate you and you're welcomeOn A and two. We have
talked about the bad teeth, you'vetalked about the good teeth. You talked
about the bad tracks, good tracks, everything in between. What teams do

(01:18:25):
we bring into Barbula one to fixit? Sky Gonna? I'm gonna go
with you first team, would Iadd Marbula one? Do only get one
team? Yeah? Only one?Only one? Fix the whole thing that
the Glue team I got you,honestly Team Glue, that men, real
veterans of the scene, that veryunderground team we're allowed of Team Glue.

(01:18:51):
Can I bring back balls of blame? Hashtag check on? Alright, balls
a flame? Hector? Who doyou have I'm gonna go with the controversial
pick that I still stand by someof the flies. They deserve a shop.
Amber is a good racer, andI do appreciate that. Not a
god. I know you don't reallyhave a team, but which crazy cat's

(01:19:14):
eye do you want to bring ininstead of yellow eye or blue eye bulls?
Not fair that I don't get togive my answer obviously it's yellow eye
fuck you term. And also seealong with them, turtle sliders shouldn't have
been cut, should come back?Maybe not Crush, Bring Dash back,
Dash on the track, I lovethat. Yeah, bring Dash back for
sure. Get rid of Crush though, oh my god, yeah Brush?

(01:19:39):
Oh man, I haven't said thata while. Who we're bringing in just
to be absolutely wild, not necessarilyas I want it, but just because
I think it'd be He would getsome conversation. Bring the Quicksilvers out of
retirement, not the Golden Orb,not the Golden Norms, the gold either

(01:20:00):
one because both of them were givenofficial logos recently, like like a few
months ago. The stuff finish itout, but like maybe that's a sign,
you know, given logos, whynot half them actually used? Ate
the tinfoil hat off take it off. Maybe all right, So I'm gonna

(01:20:24):
go. We bring the Jawbreakers backand we combine them with Chocolate tears,
so we have bond Bond and thenwe have Eddie Jawbreaker. Doesn't matter,
it's yeah, sure, sweet teamcalvity. I don't know. It doesn't
matter what the team name base figureout later, because if we're bringing the

(01:20:45):
Hornets out of retirement, might aswell bring the fucking jaw Breakers back to
No, no, no, no, hear me out. Hear me out,

have had a better name. Igot a better name. You got Candy,
and you got bond bond, andyou got a coach whatever. I
don't know who you're using for thecoach. If you call the Three Musketeers
coach retainers three like that, Ido appreciate that, all right, So

(01:21:11):
we bring in John Breakers. Wegot the three Musketeers. Baby Pinky Spun
is the manager. Baby that makesit four. You can't have four unlessen
Pinky sputs the coach as well.He's behind the scenes. Sky we all
do it. Yeah, Pinky sputsthe dell tow you into the three muskets.
Yes, sure Hector thinks Z cheats, but he doesn't by Piven,

(01:21:31):
we bring it in. I don'tknow, I really got to think about
this one. It's a really toughdecision. I have definitely never mentioned my
opinion on this topic before. DefinitelyI would really love that. Yeah,
that'd be kind of cool. Howabout it? It go starts best team
bringing the stars, give us andit goes stars. Best team water rolls,
