Undrafted Amateurs

We've got a big update. We are pausing the pod for now... so this will be our last episode for a while, but the Undrafted Amateurs brand isn't going anywhere and we will get more into that. For our farewell episode we have a long amateur hour, catching up on Allen's wedding plans, our weekends, plans for the future of Undrafted, the MLB All-Star Game (and All-Star Anthem...), Diet Coke, Brandon Ai...

On this episode, we are joined by the one and only, Christian Mosier. Since Allen is still in Ireland, we thought this would be the perfect opportunity to catch up with Christian. We talk about the U.S. Open, how his business has been, and of course, test his “gut” with a Florida Man Challenge. Finally we wrap the episode up by drafting the things that get us hyped up. Timestamps: (00:00) Intro (0...

On this episode we dive into how Allen lost his drone in Spain and had a close call with the Spanish authorities that almost resulted in a missed flight and wrongful imprisonment. We talk a little about Barcelona, Mallorca, and Prague, and compare gyms/workout enviornments in each place. We end the episode with LORD OF THE RINGS FIGHT NIGHT DRAFT, each picking LOTR characters to assemble our ultim...

This is episode 2 of our trip across the pond, and we’re currently in Barcelona recording from Parc de Carmel which overlooks the city. On this episode we continue to talk about our travels from Madrid, to Senegal, and then back to Spain to visit Barcelona. While in Senegal we visited Joe’s brother Bradley, and he took us out to a surf spot that required a boat ride to a surf break off of Ngor Isl...

On this episode, we talked about the first leg of our trip across the pond traveling to Madeira island and adventuring the coast of Portugal.  The trip started out with a few travel mishaps but we eventually made it to Madeira island, where we tackled hikes to Pico Areeiro (highest point on Madeira) and Pico Rubio, relaxed on Sexial Beach and in the natural pools of Porto Moniz, explored the fanal...

On this episode, Parker Novak and Will Sutton join the pod to talk about their recent journey to Everest Base Camp.

Recorded May 7, 2024 | The boy is engaged! The best summer ever started this weekend with Allen’s engagement. We’ve got Iceman’s unsung hero, the two-minute drill as usual, and the world record trivia is back. The draft this week is around probably the coolest man on earth, Travis Pastrana.  Timestamps: (00:00) Allen Got Engaged (13:22) Funemployment (18:21) Iceman's Unsung Hero (20:15) Two-Minute...

Recorded April 30, 2024 | It’s an outside episode. The weather is incredible so the boys are recording outside. We get into some (not too much but some) of the NFL Draft – mostly the Falcons taking Penix 8th overall, how South Carolina players faired in the draft, and biggest winners and losers. Just when we thought the Panthers might start winning us back as our 2nd favorite team, Tepper continue...

Recorded April 23, 2024 | The NFL Draft is about to take place and we’ve brought back our best team challenge debate for it. 4 teams with 1 QB, 1 RB, 1 WR, and 1 Edge each. Ranked 4-1 (by our expert unqualified opinions). We talk Allen’s time off (so far), strategies to scheme fair games, new college football rules, travel plans, a new Olympic sport, and draft the best road trip snacks. Timestamps...

Recorded April 16, 2024 | Ever get fascinated by random world records? On this episode we have some crazy adventure world record trivia. We finally finish up our All-Time NFL dream teams. We catchup on Allen’s deep sea adventure, and the Ohtani situation. And last but not least (maybe least…) we debate what the toughest thing to do in sports is.

Recorded April 9, 2024 | What a week to be alive! South Carolina has a DYNASTY! In the last week, we had the college basketball national championships, a solar eclipse, and a man finished a 10,000 mile run across the entire continent of Africa. We bring back up the Jason Bourne vs Batman vs John Wick debate, Iceman inspires us, we hit a two-minute drill, and draft linebackers for our all-time drea...

Recorded April 2, 2024 | The NCAA Tournament is down to the Final Four, the MLB season is underway, Beyoncé dropped a country album, and Florida men are saving their dogs from alligators.

Recorded March 26, 2024 | We’ve got a little basketball, football and baseball for you in this episode. March Madness is delivering its normal mayhem, the MLB’s golden boy, Shohei Ohtani, has found himself caught up in a gambling scandal, and Roger Goodell and the NFL owners have struck again with another money play disguised as “player safety”.  Headlines:  South Carolina's men's team may have fa...

The cold, bleak winter post Super Bowl is officially over. March Madness is here, so let the craziness begin. On this episode, we have Chris Arvin back on the show to talk ball. As our basketball knowledge is rather limited, we thought it would be fun to bring in some outside thoughts. Chris has been covering Virginia Tech basketball for CBS for a number of years, and is sharing is fresh takes and...

Recorded March 13, 2024 | The 2024 football season is here and the moves are wild. Key players are on division rivals, record contracts are set, surprising moves have been made, and some teams are doing it WAY better than others. On this episode we’re talking about the key signings and trades for each position group, and crowning our winners and losers (so far). We’ve got a packed two-minute drill...

Recorded March 4, 2024 | On this episode of Undrafted Amateurs we’re talking about the NFL Scouting Combine. There was a record set in the 40-yard dash, and in our unbiased (very bias) opinion some South Carolina Gamecocks improved their draft stocks. We’ve got a fun amateur hour packed with things we forgot to chat about + our dumb, amateur moments, Iceman delivers an exciting unsung hero, and a...

This is the quarterback episode. We’re looking at all 32 NFL teams heading into 2024 and grading their QB situations and voicing our unqualified opinions. With draft day approaching and off-season moves beginning to happen we thought this would be a good way to fill the void football has left. We list our top 15 power rankings for QBs heading into next year, and for our draft, we decided to do the...

In this episode we have the privilege of hanging with ‘Bussin’ with the Boys’ producer and good friend of ours, J.P. Hovey.

Sports fandom might be the worst. It's all but guaranteed to end in misery... unless you're a Chiefs fan in which case you are officially experiencing a dynasty. Joe copes with the loss in amateur hour, Iceman comes in to save the day with a special combo of the two-minute drill and unsung hero segment, we talk about the game itself, and draft the most confusing/strange/interesting mascots in spor...

Episode 58 is all about Super Bowl 58. Wish we were smart enough to plan it that way, but we couldn’t execute that Taylor Swift level plan even if we thought of it. Enough about us thought… This week was packed with the GRAMMYs, pros playing flag football and jumping through walls, and tons of Super Bowl LVIII hype. On this episode we launch a new segment called “Amateur Hour”, talk about the Pro...

In a season where the Chiefs have no business in the Super Bowl, they made it back. In the NFC, the Lions were off to a hot start, but a premature 2nd quarter wave and a determined 49ers team had other ideas, and now we’re set for a Super Bowl rematch. We almost finish our NFL dream teams as we draft coaching staffs at the end of this episode. (0:00) Intro (7:18) 2 Minute Drill (10:40) AFC Champio...

Recorded January 25, 2024 | Championship Sunday is a few days away, and among the 4 remaining, we have a team that hasn’t played in a conference championship in 32 years and another that is in their 6th straight. In this episode we break down the matchups, what to watch for, and give our predictions. We also started a new segment called the Two-Minute Drill where we hit big headlines in the sports...
