Episode 7 - The Panera Lane
Recorded on: April 3rd, 2019
Chris is back from his NOLA adventures, Kalvin got eaten by a dog.... a really big dog, Vince can't figure out his mic, and John wants to get flamed for liking Dread. We each do our "Best of the Worst" All Star teams for the Spring Split where we build a "super team" out of the non-playoff teams and see how it measures up. We also discuss the playoff slates and some futures for Spring Split winners and Diet Shasta Orange. There's a ton of money to be made in abusing the lines put out so GO OUT THERE AND GET IT!

Episode 5.2 - March Badness
Recorded on: March 20th, 2019
This episode is dedicated to Betty from your office.... you know who we're talking about.
Vince can't unmute himself so you're getting episode 5.2 .... consider it a bonus episode! Since we don't have EU this week we go really really deep on the LCK and LPL and touch on week 9 in the NA LCS. Vince needs his balls broken, regional defense, the IHOP at Bourbon Street, The Sirens, another LPL Tier list digression, Who should be the next AD for KT Rolster, 57 year old Betty from the office that wins your bracket contest is better than you at this for a reason, NA is still awful as a region, and even a few March Madness picks from Kalvin dropping some actual basketball knowledge for like 30 seconds.

Episode 2 - Rogue is Top 5 NA?
Recorded on: February 28th, 2019
Discussion, analysis, and strategy for betting in professional League of Legends.
Chris was unfortunately out this week and John apparently isn't allowed to stand up without his computer trolling him (probably because he thinks Rogue would be Top 5 in NA). We immediately get sidetracked discussing arbitrage and that leads to another discussion about cross-regional comparisons and relative strengths but eventually get to the slate. Important fork-in-the-road matchups in multiple regions, dental advice, the New England Patriots Problem, Letterkenny and more!
Topics (in order):
03:50 - LCK (Fri-Sun)
06:15 - Sidetracked discussion on arbitrage and cross-regional comparisons
19:58 - Back on track to rest of LCK slate
34:23 - LPL (Fri-Sun)
1:01:00 - LEC (Fri-Sat)
1:13:12 - LCS (Sat-Sun)
