Who's really king of the jungle? Who owns the Sahara? Are penguins vicious enough to take on a lion? Well, no, but with Jake's brother David, we had a great time debating who would reign supreme in the animal kingdom among 16 other unique creatures. We also learn way too much about Gorilla anatomy... Did you have a favorite animal growing up? Did they make the bracket? Could they be our champion? To see our bracket and ...

We're surrounded by some of the most incredible inventions ever conceived. Think you could live without any of them? That's what we debated with guest Jones in this week's episode of the Bracket Buddies. We also argue about the future for other people's children because based on this episode, we're definitely not having kids if we can help it!

Cheesy one liners, unnecessary explosions, and testosterone for days, and no I'm not just describing our panel this week... No, this week we've pit 16 Action Movie Characters against each other, but rather than just let them go at it we thought it would be fun to throw them into a scenario that even John McClane isn't prepared for - The Hunger Games! That's right, with guest Chris, we debate who's combination of hand-to...

Sure, people duel in Harry Potter all the time, but what if we made a real tournament out of it, with no rules? Well that is exactly what we did this week as we present the first annual 16 Wizard Cup Challenge for the Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore Trophy (doesn't quite roll off the tongue like the Stanley Cup but whatever). We're joined by one of our favorite guests Brady, and thanks to your feedback we've do...

EMERGENCY POD!!! In the wake of all of this division over the latest Star Wars film, we felt we had to debate the topic our way to see if there was any merit to the complaints we're hearing. Is The Last Jedi an abomination? Is it a breath of fresh air? Is it better than Attack of the Clones? We debate this and more with our emergency guest Brad. The reasonings were so passionate that we had to break it up into two parts! P...

This is what this podcast is all about- debating the ridiculous, like who would win in a fight amongst Disney characters who are normally known for their singing? Does Cinderella stand a chance against the pipes (and muscles) of Hercules? We debate this and more with this week's guest Ashley. To follow along, check out the unfinished bracket on Twitter @Bracketbuddies and send us more ludicrous topics to our email at brack...

Our first episode!!! In our inaugural ep, we discuss which MCU movie is the best with our first guest Brady.
