2 Guys Talking Podcast

Mick Cronin Would Break Me | 2GT Pod

In this episode of the 2 Guys Talking Podcast, we’re covering everything from Olympic dominance to hobby heat checks.
We open with a historic Olympic recap as Team USA brings home the most gold medals ever for the United States, including a massive gold medal win for USA Hockey. What does this run mean for the future of international competition and American sports culture?
Then we pivot to the card market — who’s hot, who’s not, and which names are trending up or cooling off in the hobby right now.
College basketball delivered drama all week long. From Mick Cronin ejecting his own player and lighting up the postgame podium, to his squad knocking off Illinois Fighting Illini at the buzzer in overtime. We also break down the heavyweight showdown between the Michigan Wolverines and the Duke Blue Devils and what it tells us about contenders heading toward March.
On the NBA side, we debate our favorite non-superstar in the league — the glue guys who impact winning without dominating headlines.
We close it out with our best and worst of the week and, of course, MJ winning another race — because apparently that’s just what he does.
If you love sports, storylines, and a little controlled chaos, this episode is for you.

You Had Us At Footlong | 2GT Podcast

On this episode of 2 Guys Talking Podcast, Praveen Mantripragada and Branden “Base” Wilson cover a little bit of everything from the sports world — and a few curveballs outside of it.
We open with an Olympic medal update and even dive into speed skating before shifting to college basketball. The guys break down their projected top four #1 seeds and react to the fallout from Jerome Tang’s comments at Kansas State — and what his firing means moving forward. In a world where historic rivalries never truly die, Boise State and Idaho are renewing theirs, which leads to a bigger conversation about court storming and where the line should be drawn.
On the baseball side, they discuss whether Chris Sale will ever challenge a ball/strike under the new system and check in on Zac Veen’s outlook. The NBA All-Star Game gets an honest review (or lack thereof), and the debate is on: was the Daytona 500 actually the better event? Just ask MJ.
Plus, the best and worst of the weekend — and somehow, Subway’s new subscription service makes the rundown.

Double Luge Is Not Necessary In The Olympics

We’re back and diving headfirst into a loaded episode.
We start with a full Super Bowl LX recap — the biggest moments, biggest plays, and the storylines that will carry into the offseason. We break down the award winners and then go wayyyy too early with our Super Bowl LXI picks at SoFi Stadium.
Then it’s game time: “Still Got It or Washed?”We debate the current state of elite QBs — Lamar Jackson, Pat Mahomes, Joe Burrow, Dak Prescott, Jalen Hurts, Matt Stafford, Brock Purdy, Kyler Murray, Josh Allen, and Tua Tagovailoa. Who’s still in their prime? Who’s trending down? Who are we overreacting about?
From there, we hit some rapid fire:
Lindsey Vonn 
The Olympics — do you actually care?
And is the Big Ten becoming an absolute gauntlet?
Sports, opinions, debates, and a few tangents along the way — just how we like it.
Two guys. A lot to talk about. Let’s get into it. 🎙️
