Roll The Balls Out!

It's everything you've been hoping for: the Roll The Balls Out crew have dragged themselves back into the studio for a mid-summer bonus episode/trainwreck. VK has gone cold turkey on Coke Zero after an encounter with Health Teacher Mr. Grimm but has started drinking Bubblr instead, which might eventually lead to another encounter with Health Teacher Mr. Grimm; Cope responded to the recent heat wav...

It's the SEASON FINALE of Roll The Balls Out, which means that Cope and VK add an additional 20 minutes to the episode even though Producer Marc is supposed to be sitting in on Junior speech class exams in the auditorium! Fortunately, the Highly Skilled Auditorium Student Staff was able to cover for Producer Marc so EDUCATIONAL STANDARDS WERE MAINTAINED. (Shoutout to Reuben, the senior Co-captain...

Whoo this one's a doozy. We welcome mystery guest number fourteen, who shares an epic prom date story that will echo through eternity as a horrifying cringy experience; VK accuses Producer Marc of ruining the traditional Junior/Senior Banquet for some reason; Producer Marc also gets roasted by a student that he used to like a lot and had always been nice to but now is probably in trouble and might...

Join us this week as our Mystery Guest reacts in wonder to the news that Cope and VK can read! Also, the mystery guest was invited to try out for the Cincinatti Reds, which is an achievement, but also no one really likes the Cincinatti Reds, which is something that no reasonable person can dispute. Be aware that there is a surprisingly in-depth discussion of the Star Wars Universe led by VK, which...

In this weeks BIG COMEBACK episode after SPRING BREAK, Cope and VK actually did some basic show prep to make sure they don't say anything that is wildly incorrect about our mystery guest's youth and young adulthood, which is laudable and to be encouraged. We may actually get this podcast moved from "amateurish" to legit "amateur" yet! This week's mystery guest is an adult human who is gainfully em...

In this episode of Roll The Balls Out, Producer Marc gets a nice email and then gets absolutely obliterated when VK reads some of his... unfortunate student poetry from the 90s. In other news, Mrs. Wierenga just jeopardized her position as Producer Marc's favorite teacher from his time at South. It should also be noted that whatever the poem lacked in lyricism and balance, it made up for in factua...

IMPORTANT CORRECTION: Lee Van Cleef was actually "The Ugly" in the classic spaghetti Western "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly." We aplologize for the error. This week's episode of Roll The Balls Out brings us a slight lull in the chicken strip war because the mystery guest hasn't been to Raising Cane's, but they promise to try it so there's hope for more fireworks in the future. VK namechecks Lee...

In this week's episode of Roll The Balls Out, we continue our ongoing coverage of Chickengate with our mystery guest absolutely throwing down the chicken wing gauntlet, directly challenging Dr. Gabby Miller (Director of the RTBO Institute for the Advancement of Poultry Science and Technology) and her assertion that Raising Cane's chicken strips are "life changing," and raising high the standard of...

It's episode 8 of Roll The Balls Out, in which we find out which current South Christian teacher has been onstage with an Australian rock band. Hint: it was neither AC/DC nor INXS. Other Australian rock bands: Crowded House, Cut Copy, Men At Work, Jet, Midnight Oil, Tame Impala, and... Regurgitator? Wow. Seems like a great band if you're a gastroenterologist. Don't worry though. There's a lot more...

"This is your time. Their time -- is done. It's over." -Herb Brooks, Coach, 1980 Gold-Medal Winning Hockey Team "...But it'll probably be their time again next week, just to be clear." -Producer Marc We've spent a lot of time on the podcast with the sports folks, but now it's time to turn our attention to the theater. And what better time to do that than right now, as we anticipate the debut of So...

You know it’s another action packed episode of Roll The Balls Out, Right? Like, you’re coming to expect this on a weekly basis at this point? Is this thing on? Yes. Yes it is. This week’s mystery guest is a member of the species Homo sapiens, breathes air, has athletic links, and I think we can all agree without knowing a single thing more about him or her that given the opportunity they would tur...

It's another heart-pounding episode of Roll The Balls Out, this time brought to you by Todd's Tapes, a great local business that apparently has a website but VandeKopple fails to mention what that website is during his "excellent" ad read, so we'll mention it here: toddstapes.com. ANYHOO, other stuff happens on this episode beside an ad that doesn't tell you how to contact the vendor. There's the...

In a flagrant display of hubris, Copeland and VandeKopple allow show producer Marc Vander Maas to have a microphone of his own. The good news is that he delivers the first VIEWER MAILBAG segment (rtbo@schs.org, of course) and reveals that the show is IMPACTING HUGE in Tunisia (with a single download). The bad news is that it makes for a more chaotic environment for this week's mystery guest, who A...

This week, we learn that Curt Copeland believes that, given the proper circumstances, he could "make an impact" on the world of Olympic speed skating. We also learn that he's "at least ten years past his athletic prime" and "potentially delusional," a fact confirmed by our latest MYSTERY GUEST, who also helps us prove beyond any reasonable doubt that Calvin University is superior to Hope College i...

This week on Roll The Balls Out!, we welcome our first student guest and force them to say who their favorite teacher is, which can only lead to awkwardness at school when the episode releases; the student also quizzes Copeland and VandeKopple on current teen slang, which - let's be honest - is also awkward. But none of that can happen until after an oddly long discussion of the largest member of...

Many people have wondered what would happen if the P.E. department was given access to microphones and a broadcasting platform; many more have never even contemplated such a thing; the truly wise among us have recoiled in horror at the thought and have worked very hard to ensure that such a thing would never happen. But they have failed. Welcome to Roll The Balls Out, a brand-new podcast for the S...
