The Fracas continues, nay, intensifies. Blake, Ian, Blake, Brittany, and Marcie join us for more grid iron nonsense. These coaches are self-admittedly sports illiterate so, sports fans... prepare to be amazed as the best teams in the NFL get picked late becuase their mascots suck. Promotions: Ian - If trivia flashcards are your thing, check out Ian's Ko-fi page , and don’t forget to be excellent t...

The Fracas Continues! Adam, Matt, and Paddy join us for the second divisional draft of the First Annual Fantasy Fracas. This one is a little more sports heavy, but knowledge of football is not a required prerequisite to enjoy this episode. Promotion Adam - Listen to the Smart Bitches, Trashy Books podcast, Be excellent to each other and Party on dudes. Matt - Support your local (or online) trivia...

Welcome to the Fracas! Riley, Nisi, Kristin, and Brewer join us for the first of FOUR special episodes of Draught Daze.

Draught Daze is back with even more skaudio silliness for part 2 of our Ska Band Draft. Sara Callori, Mike Mott, Paul McLaughlin, and Bryan Nash join us as our judges for one of the closest final results we have ever had. Ska puns abound, much nonsense occurs, and we talk A LOT about the third most popular genre of music with high school band kids in the mid 90s in the US. Listen to Ska Music! You...

On this two-tone episode of Draught Daze, we are joined by Aaron Keefner, Benjamin "Bender" Costello, Brandon Mertz, and Aaron Mayers for an exceptionally long draft of our favorite Ska Bands. I'm gonna be real honest with you, this is a real long one, and by the end of the recording we had been at it for almost 5 hours.  At one point, everyone devolved into making cat noises for some reason. If y...

NOTE - THIS IS BONUS CONTENT MEANT TO BE LISTENED TO AFTER THE SKA BAND DRAFT. I put it into the feed first so that it would show up "after" the new episode if you have things listed by release date.  If you don’t, what kind of monster are you? this may be confusing for you. SInce the episode was running very long, I cut out the honorable mentions section and placed it here with some bonus thought...

Mentally, we find ourselves in the Solarium of a late 80s Wendy's as Aaron Keefner, Ben "Bender" Costello, Brandon Mertz, and Aaron Mayers act as our panel of Judges for the Fast Food Draft. Despite Wendy's going undrafted, we spend plenty of time discussing the #6 and our nostalgia for Yellow Wendy's vs. Red Wendy's. Editors note: I cut A LOT of content from this episode mostly for time, but also...

Jacob Hein, Jay Borsom, Adam Speas, and John Speas join us for a hunger inducing draft of our favorite fast food joints. Listen along as three of us draft midwest stuff, and two of us draft stuff from Atlanta (and Asia). The silliness from episode 24 continues here as Adam drinks the STRONGEST drink featured on the show yet. Please do not be offended by our language and humor, I promise we are all...

Jacob Hein, Jay Borsom, Adam Speas, and John Speas stop by to decide which team of villains will reign supreme. The show starts with a 5-year-old chicken cock, and somehow only goes downhill from there. Listen along as we learn that the true villains were the friends we made along the way. If you are in Louisville KY, maybe swing by and visit Heinsight Trivia Or maybe join the WTF and play some ki...

Siege, Jane H, Baney, and Alan Kreisel join us for a "best of the worst" competition in our Villains Draft. I cut about 5 minutes of me talking about Avatar: The Last Airbender because I can't stop talking sometimes. Siege and I seemingly share a brain because now i cant stop typing VANILLA instead of VILLAINS. Whats behind the door? THE POLAR BEAR FROM LOST! Throat Punch! Another Throat Punch! Fo...

Join us for our first foray into the new and improved Draught Daze Combine! We've thrown out the metrics, and now the results are solely in the hands of our judges - Siege, Jane H, Baney, and Alan Kreisel! Listen along as these four put our teams under a microscope and give us some unfiltered opinions. Was Caddyshack 2 a brilliant pick by David? (Nope, because he didn't actually pick it) Can anyon...

This time... it's personal this time as Brittany Shaw, David Kantorski, Chris Brewer, and Sara Callori join us to talk about our favorite follow ups in the Movie Sequels Draft! Unsurprisingly, this devolves into a conversation about the shocking number of Land Before Time and Debbie Does Dallas sequels that exist. This episode marks the beginning of the new format which changes how our teams are s...

Jeffs Clear, Woodhead, and Goar join Jeff for the very first Council of Jeffs to talk a little bit about famous Jeffs. Jeff has some opinions on Geoffs, Jeff makes a few good points, the listeners don’t listen and pick Jeff, Jeff has some Jeff Jeff to say about Jeff, Jeff Jeff Jeff makes Jeff Jeff, Jeff Jeff Jeff Jeff Jeff Jeff. Alex Trebek Jeff Jeff Jeff. You can listen to Jeff Jeff about Jeff by...

The Major League references continue! The second half of the Ballpark draft is here, and much like the 2016 World Series, I bribed Jobu with the finest of treats of the Chicagoland area to help my team. Sometimes a hot dog is just a hot dog even when you give it a fun name, do modern ballparks serve Orange Julius? Two metrics are decided by a difference of 3 points, Chris misunderstands some of th...

Matt Monk, Alan Kreisel, Mark Serratore, and Chris Liguori join us as we draft teams of Major League Ball Parks. The Beatles played at Comiskey which is news to me, Truist Park is juuust a bit outside Atlanta, Macaroni the dog stops by to say hello, Jeff gets ahead of himself, we get distracted talking about Dennis Haysbert, there is some butt-punching, and I edited out 5+ minutes of Cardinals/St...

Part 2 of the until-recently unaired pilot is here! Jeff and Pat talk about seafood, Minor League Baseball, and food trucks for longer than you might assume. Our friend has a sweet scar from a knife fight, Austin visually demonstrates how to grasp a sausage but unfortunately this is an audio medium, and Jeff discovers why paired metrics are a good idea in real time. UPDATE: The original upload of...

It's a trip down memory lane to the very first recording of Draught Daze where Patrick Cochran, Zach Freet, Austin Wood, and Ben Wood join Jeff to draft teams of Potato side dishes. Much ado is made over if (insert potato dish here) is in fact a side dish, Jeff is a team name thief, and we all hate hasselback potatoes.  Metrics (condensed for brevity, full list on the website ) 1- Points awarded f...

Welcome to the very first Home Brew Draft, where our results are determined by the listeners! This episode's expert panelists are noted video game fan and geek trivia host Jeremy Goodson, and Bassoonist and video game music cover artist Andrew Gossett.  Jeremy, Andrew, and Jeff go over some of their favorite video game music and make predictions for the results before covering the Top 20 Picks as...

Sam has a bonkers-long job title, maybe Disney should adapt Poe, Jeff and Zahkia continue to bond over their love of Coco, the gang performs the Space Jam soundtrack, Luke stops by to share his thoughts, and Sam becomes everyone's Frenemy (he knows what he did...) You can hear Sam, his brother Paul, and their guests (like me!) play movie related games on the Hollywood Cast Connection You can hear...

Asha Ouseph, Sam Carr, Zahkia Mendoza, and Carmela Smith join us for the Animated Movies Draft. Asha braves tornado weather, Yeungling hates Jeff, Luke names his dad’s team, Zahkia dislikes Britanimation, all of us are super comfortable openly weeping in a movie theater, and Carmela forgets who she is which causes another ending to go off the rails. You can hear Sam, his brother Paul, and their gu...

Tom Madia, Jordan Palmer, Patrick Cochran, and Timmy Daniels are back to bring their teams to the Combine. Moopsy the Destroyer of Fans drops by for a visit, we change the outcome of a metric by measuring it, we all do an Owen Wilson impersonation, Jeff tries (and fails) to end the show for literally 5 minutes, Jordan almost laughs himself to death, and in spite of all the crazy, Patrick remains t...

Tom Madia, Jordan Palmer, Patrick Cochran, and Timmy Daniels join us for the Nickelodeon Draft.  Things start off great and definitely don't go off the rails immediately, Pat has the thrills for the pils, Jeff is a big fan of Toby Huss but can't remember his name, everyone steals everyone's picks, and Timmy is a towel. You can find Tom's Perler bead creations on instagram at @jarusof You can find...

Craig Bona, Chris Olson, Tim Joria, and Kevin Huizenga are back to bring their teams into the Combine. Cracklin Oat Bran is (maybe) Mr Smithers' favorite breakfast, we discuss what other foods might be good served in a liquid, cereal isn’t soup and everyone agrees with me, Kevin has no microwave or too many and there is no in-between, and we make more simpsons references than you might assume a ce...

Craig Bona, Chris Olson, Tim Joria, and Kevin Huizenga join us to draft some breakfast cereals.   Reese’s puffs has a song and it's lowkey a banger, Jeff forgets to read metrics, Craig is a point hoarder, Kevin’s brother eats dog food, and at least one of us is unsure of who they are.   Enjoying the show?
