Pat and the Fat Man

Pat and Bruce are at it again, coming at you not so live with all things Sportballs 2024. Gotta get ready for the new season, the changes coming down the line in baseball and football, the new no explosions after the fifth period rule, and the drastically crazy no hip swivel tackle. Some of this and more on this episode of Pat and the Fat Man.

Pat and the Fat Man return to the Sandlot, that most wonderful of places in the world, except when it's 105 degrees out and so instead we head to the pool. Listen in as Pat and Bruce talk about the pool scene, followed by several other baseball like scenes where they play on the 4th of July, they defeat a well funded and outfitted little league team from the good side of town, and Smalls wrestles...

Pat and Bruce review most of the football season, along with baseball, some soccer, and some other stuff, probably. You get to see if any of our predictions came true and what the massively changing landscape of the sportsball field looks like, what with all the changes in football, NCAA sports, and baseball.

An older episode that I found laying around collecting dust (forgot to post when it was relevant). This episode was recorded in the early-middle of the 2023 Football season. A couple more Sportsball episodes are on the way, you'll get to see how our opinions bear out over time.

Pat and Bruce continue their journey through the childhood classic The Sandlot. Join us as we wax poetic about Dennis Leary's parenting style, and how Smalls is killing them, about the origins of the beast, about how Small's mom posed for very risque photos and is recognized by the kids on the team. Some of this and more on this episode of Pat and the Fat Man.

Pat and Bruce start their next fan chosen movie, The Sandlot. Out of all the baseball movies you could have picked, you picked The Sandlot, well cr&*, I guess we'll have to review it then. Strap in as Pat and Bruce spend the next hour talking about roughly 10 minutes of film time in this seminal classic about kids, growing up, getting into trouble, sexual assault, and bad step-parenting. Oh yeah,...

Welcome to Sportsball 2023. As we head into the Sportsball season, or at least the portion of sportball that we care about, we figured we'd give you a sportball episode to chew on before we get to our new movie, The Sandlot. So sit back and listen in to Pat and the Fat Man pontificate about the great sport of foosball.

And now we come to the end of the movie, and you all are A number 1, Duke of New York for sticking with us over this past month because we have not posted a new episode since June. As we come to the close of the movie, the timer on Snake's wristwatch keeps going faster and faster like some crazy perpetual motion machine. Listen in as Pat and Bruce discuss the finer points of screwing over the worl...

Taking a break from the super ultra fast paced Escape from New York we are gonna talk about some baseball. New pitch clock, new hit clock, no shift, a minimum of one sacrifice per game, two beers chugged after you round 3rd, and so many more new things discussed in this episode of Pat and the Fat Man!

Snake Blitzen, Blitzken, Blizzard...whatever...is still trapped in the maximum security penitentiary that is Manhattan city. Listen in as Pat and the Fat Man talk incessantly about the slow pans, 80s music, people recognizing Snake but thinking he was dead, and the president getting shot over and over and over and over and over and over again, like I'm sure we've all wanted to do at some time in o...

Welcome to Manhattan, city of the future, the dystopian future that is. Marvel at the lack of utilities, the waste of a massive city, and cab drivers who have somehow been inside a maximum security prison from twenty years before it was built. Why did the U.S. decide to wall off Manhattan and use it as a prison, how did they get this past the Port Authority, Teamsters, Mafia, and the most despised...

We made it! We made it to the gruesome and honestly very sad finale of the movie...we made it...hurray?!?! Listen in as Pat and Bruce break down the final fifteen minutes of the movie. The tragic ends of the two brothers, the heroic escape of the two survivors, the really quick and kinda slapdash outro, the space alien reveal, some of this and more on this episode of Pat and the Fat Man.

Back to the Movies! Red Dawns Part 6 takes us into the cold winter months and the downfall of the Wolverines. We go over the gut punches that are the slow demise of the team and the dissolution of the group under heavy fire and heavy pressure. The movie continues to stay real, gritty, and low budget. Join Pat and Bruce as we get real too, and talk waaaay too much about every little detail, just th...

Want to be able to talk about those sportsball teams during their big sportsball game? Well we've got the episode for you. I mean, it might not have the playoff information, but who needs that for the superb owl, am'i'right? Well, anyways, get to some sportsball listening and we'll catch you on the other side.

It's been a while since we did a relatively random show, so here you go, random thoughts of the Patman and the Fatman as we close out 2022 (recorded on election night 2022). We cover briefly: sportsball, what we are watching currently (or at the time), politics, more sportsball, the space time continuum. All this and possibly more on this episode of Pat and the Fat Man!

Bleep LSU. Bleep Bleep LSU. That's really all you need to know. Sportsball Week 9 to 12.

Sportsball continues and the Aggie's and Brown's seasons are only getting worse as the teams begin to stack up impressive losing streaks not seen for decades...well not the Browns. The Cowboys continue on in heroic fashion while the Astros clutch the pennet and take it to the world series. Also a couple words about Hockey. Whooooooo Sportsball!

We move from October into November and just like the bleakness of late fall, things start to get bleaker for our heroes. The addition of the Colonel brings some different feelings into the mix. The horrors of war and sieges are explored. Whether children should be fighting or acting as an insurgent sabotage force is a question that comes to the foreground. Finally they make a go at smuggling the C...

Sportsball continues, and it continues to go downhill for both the Aggies and Browns, but fortunately uphill for the Cowboys and the Astros. Also downhill for Bruce's hockey team....so...well Bruce is pretty sports unhappy right now, let's put it that way. Pat fully understands that being an Aggie fan means mostly being in pain all the time with some moments of awesome....but mostly pain.

Two episodes in a week?!?!? What is going on, could it be that the stars have aligned between Pat, Bruce, and Che, our wonderful and gorgeous editor, and they can now crank these things out like wigets in a factory? Well, kind of, at least for the time being we are gonna ride this wave of productivity. Today it's still all about Sportsball: college football, nfl, baseball, hockey, other stuff mayb...

And just like that the leaves change colors, the weather gets cooler, and Pat and Bruce start talking about the sportsball. Our regularly scheduled movie programming will return, as we work in episodes around our stupendous coverages of College Football, the NFL, baseball, the NHL, and soccer, possibly even basketball if we want to go crazy. Either way, welcome to the start of our yearly coverage...

Thank you everyone for continuing to listen to our Podcast. We know we've been out of it for a little while. Both Bruce and I got new jobs which made timing recordings difficult and then 4 of our recordings got deleted via technology. So, very frustratedly, we finally got this one down on the books. So welcome back to Red Dawn! We got two scenes under our belt, but we were happy to get that and ha...

September turns into October as the kids in the woods realize they can't go home, and not only that, but they are going to have to join the fight. It's more movie over analysis from Pat and Bruce in this episode of Pat and the Fat Man.

We move further into the story of these children who are forced to grow up fast as their town is attacked and taken by communist forces. We get to meet some of the villains, see how the kids deal with being on their own in the woods for a while, and get a glimpse of what has become of occupied America.
