    71: GOATS Among Us

    One question. One rule. Still playing.   Joe Willie and Tom Beer run the whole board, every sport, every active player, and ask the only question that matters right now: Is there a GOAT among us?   🐐 Katie Ledecky. Simone Biles. Mikaela Shiffrin. The names that don't need a debate. Then it gets complicated. 🐐 Ovechkin broke Gretzky's record. Does that make him the greatest goal scorer ever? Joe says no. Tom says yes. They argue it out. 🐐 Ohtani is on pace to pass Lou Gehrig in home runs, potentially Willie Mays, maybe even Babe Ruth. The numbers say it's possible. The position says otherwise. 🐐 Mahomes has 3 rings, a better completion percentage than Brady, a higher passer rating than Brady, and is 3X behind him in everything else. Tom Beer does the math and lands where nobody wanted to land. 🐐 LeBron goes to Philly for $52 million less than he could make. Two more seasons. Can he pass Jordan? Tom Beer says impossible and doesn't budge. Joe agrees but leaves a crack in the door.   Goats among us. Let's get after it.   Recorded: 7/29/26 Timestamps 04:39 Soccer Stars 08:16 Evaluating Alex Ovechkin and Wayne Gretzky 14:31 The Versatility of Shohei Ohtani 21:01 Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady Legacy 30:13 The Basketball GOAT Debate 42:13 Rising Stars and Sports Chaos 47:30 Predicting Future GOAT Candidates   GOATQUEST is your ultimate platform to dive into the age-old debate: Who is the Greatest of All Time?

    66: The Debbie Downer Episode: Greatest Sports Disappointments of All Time

    Joe Willie and Tom Beer sit down, crack a Diet Coke, and spend an episode complaining. Professionally.   The Skubal trade is a disaster. A two-time Cy Young winner walked out the door for zero everyday players and a bag of prospects nobody's heard of. The Red Wings are coming apart at the seams. The Lions' center is already on IR. NIL has turned college football into a free-for-all where coaches poach their own players, bowl games are irrelevant, and a judge in Colorado just ruled that NFL cuts can come back and play a fifth year of college football.   THEN the GOAT list hits: greatest sports disappointments of all time.

    65: GOAT of GOATs with Dino Candela

    Joe Willie, Tom Beer, and the Candyman Dino Candela are live in the Goat Pen at the Downtown Pourhouse. The nachos are ordered. The debate is on. GOAT of GOATs. Greatest athlete of all time across every sport. No limits, no rules, just the Al-GOATrithm doing its work. Nobody agrees who truly is the Greatest of All Time! One goes pure athlete. One goes pure stats. One goes heart over logic and admits it on air. They also cover the Tigers' playoff chase and why Skubal has to stay. The Lions' schedule sets up perfectly for 12 wins, and Tom Beer explains why the schedule structure matters more than the power rankings.  Live, loud, and surrounded by goats. Let's get after it.
