On any given Tuesday you're gonna make a podcast or you're gonna fail. The point is - can you make a podcast like a man? If you want a hyper-realistic movie about all of the things the NFL wants you to forget about pro football, then look no further than Any Given Sunday! Oliver Stone makes the conspiracy theorists dream football movie which pulls no punches in the locker room shower, from dodgy doctors to crazy coaches, Any Given Sunday has everything that is needed for a Hall of Fame sports movie

Two American Football Movies in a row? Madness, but thats how we finish up season 2 of the champions of cinema before a little festive break to rest and recuperate before coming back in 2025 with a new series!

Who said you had to be good to make podcasts? Little Giants tells the story of misfit children who just want to be allowed to compete in an aggressive and competitive arena with the bigger boys (and girls) who are just cooler and more suited to it than them....I dont feel seen, you feel seen!

Its time for another American Football Movie and this time Joe and James are breaking the first rule of show-business "Never work with animals or children". Until we cover Air-bud we wont quite know the subtle differences between the two. This family friendly episode covers a movie inspired by a Superbowl commercial which explores the lure and joy of youth sports in Apple Pie America.

I'm da boss, I'm da boss, I'm da boss, I'm da boss, I'm da boss... Scorsese dodges a bullet in life after surviving a drug overdose and doubles down on dodging a career suicide by making the greatest sports biography ever put on film.

When you know how much James loves Rocky, Joe putting him though watching Raging Bull, a movie that in many ways is a complete contrast to Rocky is just cruel and unusual punishment, no wonder this episode goes deep into the darkness of not just the movie but those feelings of our presenters and their own lives. As we come to the final rounds of season two, can Joe and James be saved by the bell in what could be the toughest test of sporting glory?

What? Friends listen to ‘Endless Love’ in the dark. If you want to build a successful comedic sports movie career, its always best to start with Golf! Sandler says that Happy Gilmore is is favourite movie he made. But we now know him as a talented film maker with a whole bunch of sports movies under his belt

Joe and James are not golfers, even if they have tried a bit before, This episode however is a hole in one with discussions about Carl Weathers, Golf wording and even their first answered question from a listener!

I drive truck, break arms, and make mediocre podcasts about sports movies . It's what I love to do, it's what I do best. Being number one is everything. There is no second place. Second sucks. When all your money from Rocky has started to dry up and Brigette Nielsen wants a divorce, you better know how to make £12 Million Dollars for a movies about trucks and arm wrestling damnit!

James has never done an arm wrestle, Joe has never driven a truck, but we all know wo has a distant relationship with his son and thats just going to hit home a little bit harder during this episode! Oh well, its just setting up the Rocky series really nicely in 2025

There's a point at 15 podcasts deep... where everything fades. The podcast becomes weightless. Just disappears. And all that's left is Joe and James talking about if a movie is any good or not.

Neither James nor Joe drive a Ford, but that is simply because they are degenerates! They do however at this point know their big end from their transmission when it comes to sports movies and this one, well she goes like the clappers. Join them as they discuss one of the finest racing movies of the 2000's in what might be the biggest champion we have had yet!

It all comes down to this roll. Roy Munson, a man-child, with a dream to topple bowling giant Ernie McCracken. If he strikes, he's the 1979 Odor-Eaters Champion. He's got one foot in the frying pan and one in the pressure cooker. Believe me, as a bowler, I know that right about now, your bladder feels like an overstuffed vacuum cleaner bag and your butt is kinda like an about-to-explode bratwurst.

Sorry was I typing out loud? There are a select few sports movies starring Bill Murray and throw in Woody Harrelson and you have one of the best movies about bowling ever made! But does that make it a Champion?

Well its come that time to gain some young listeners, and mostly at the behest of James, our dynamic duo are covering a Disney Pixar Movie! 2006's Cars follows impetuous and self centred race car Lightning McQueen as he tries to win his first Piston Cup whilst learning a few lessons along the way about friendship and teamwork.

Joe and James know by now what makes a champion, but is this up there or just another vehicle for lessons and laughter?
