THEN WE GET INTO HOW YOUTUBE ABSOLUTELY DOMINATED COACHELLA WEEKEND, PULLING IN MASSIVE VIEWERSHIP THROUGH BOTH ADS AND PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTIONS. IT RAISES A BIG QUESTION: WILL A MAJOR STREAMING SERVICE GO FREE WITH ADS AND CHANGE THE GAME? WE SHIFT INTO MLB TALK, BREAKING DOWN QUESTIONS AROUND THE DODGERS, ROKI SASAKI, AND DALTON RUSHING, BEFORE CALLING OUT THE GIANTS’ ROUGH START TO THE SEASON. LOOKING AHEAD, WE PREVIEW THE NFL DRAFT, DISCUSSING KEY STORYLINES AND WHAT OUR TEAMS NEED MOST. NEXT UP, WE HIT THE NBA PLAYOFFS—BUT LET’S BE HONEST… ARE PEOPLE ACTUALLY WATCHING?

  4. NFL FREE AGENCY DOMINATES SPORTS, NBA MAGIC CITY DRAMA & OSCARS TALK | BANTER ON THE ROCKS

    MAR 12

    NFL FREE AGENCY DOMINATES SPORTS, NBA MAGIC CITY DRAMA & OSCARS TALK | BANTER ON THE ROCKS

    THIS WEEK ON BANTER ON THE ROCKS, IT’S BEEN A PACKED AND CHAOTIC WEEK ACROSS SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT. WE KICK THINGS OFF WITH THE WOLFPACK CHECK-IN, BREAKING DOWN THE IMPRESSIVE RUN THE WOLVES HAVE BEEN ON AND WHAT THE STREAK COULD MEAN MOVING FORWARD. FROM THERE WE DIVE INTO OUR BANTER TAKES, INCLUDING A HEATED DEBATE ABOUT THE NBA STEPPING IN TO REMOVE MAGIC CITY MONDAY IN ATLANTA AFTER COMPLAINTS—DESPITE THE FACT THAT MAGIC CITY HAS LONG BEEN A STAPLE OF ATLANTA SPORTS CULTURE AND PART OF THE CITY’S IDENTITY FOR ATHLETES AND FANS ALIKE. WE ALSO DISCUSS HOW THE NFL CONTINUES TO DOMINATE THE SPORTS LANDSCAPE, ARGUING THAT EVEN DURING THE OFFSEASON—SPECIFICALLY DURING THE NFL FREE AGENCY PERIOD—THE LEAGUE STILL MANAGES TO OUTSHINE BOTH THE NBA AND MLB IN ATTENTION, HEADLINES, AND FAN ENGAGEMENT. THE CONVERSATION CONTINUES WITH A BREAKDOWN OF THE MANY HANDSHAKE DEALS AND EARLY MOVES DURING NFL FREE AGENCY, ANALYZING WHAT TEAMS ARE DOING AND WHAT IT COULD MEAN FOR THE UPCOMING SEASON. QUICK DISCLAIMER: OUR NFL SEGMENT WAS RECORDED MONDAY PRIOR TO THE TUESDAY NEWS AND TRADE DRAMA THAT UNFOLDED SHORTLY AFTER. WE ALSO SHIFT INTO ENTERTAINMENT WITH A QUICK TAKE ON THE OSCARS, INCLUDING TIMOTHÉE CHALAMET’S RECENT COMMENTS ABOUT BALLET AND THEATER BEING A “DYING ART”, AND WHETHER THOSE REMARKS COULD END UP HURTING HIS CHANCES DURING AWARDS SEASON. IF YOU LOVE BOLD TAKES ON SPORTS, NFL FREE AGENCY, NBA CULTURE, ENTERTAINMENT, AND POP CULTURE DEBATES, THIS EPISODE HAS IT ALL—SO GRAB A DRINK, SIT BACK, AND DON’T MISS THIS WEEK’S EPISODE OF BANTER ON THE ROCKS. WHAT IS BANTER ON THE ROCKS? BANTER ON THE ROCKS" IS A SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT PODCAST HOSTED BY TWO FRIENDS WHO LOVE DISCUSSING SPORTS, MOVIES, VIDEO GAMES, AND CURRENT EVENTS—ALL WHILE ENJOYING DRINKS AND ENGAGING IN LIVELY BANTER.

  5. CEO VIRAL FAIL, WARNER BROS–PARAMOUNT MERGER, NFL COMBINE STANDOUTS & NBA CONTROVERSY

    MAR 7

    CEO VIRAL FAIL, WARNER BROS–PARAMOUNT MERGER, NFL COMBINE STANDOUTS & NBA CONTROVERSY

    THIS WEEK ON BANTER ON THE ROCKS WE’RE BACK WITH ANOTHER PACKED EPISODE COVERING THE BIGGEST STORIES IN SPORTS, ENTERTAINMENT, AND CULTURE. WE KICK THINGS OFF WITH OUR WOLFPACK CHECK-IN AS TIM BREAKS DOWN WOLVERHAMPTON WOLVES’ HOT RUN AND WHAT IT COULD MEAN MOVING FORWARD, BEFORE DIVING INTO OUR BANTER TAKES WHERE WE DISCUSS WHY—LET’S BE HONEST—MOST CEOS PROBABLY SHOULDN’T BE IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA. THE RECENT MCDONALD’S CEO TASTE TEST MOMENT TURNED INTO A VIRAL FAIL AND SPARKED PLENTY OF ONLINE MOCKERY, LEADING US INTO A LARGER CONVERSATION ABOUT FAST FOOD MARKETING, CORPORATE PR, AND HOW BRANDS TRY (AND SOMETIMES FAIL) TO CONNECT WITH CUSTOMERS. WE THEN SHIFT TO A MAJOR MEDIA STORY WITH THE POTENTIAL WARNER BROS. AND PARAMOUNT MERGER, DISCUSSING THE MASSIVE EXPECTATIONS AROUND THE DEAL, WHETHER THE COMBINED COMPANY COULD LIVE UP TO THE HYPE, AND WHAT IT MIGHT MEAN FOR THE FUTURE OF MOVIES, STREAMING PLATFORMS, AND THE ONGOING BATTLE FOR ENTERTAINMENT DOMINANCE. ON THE SPORTS SIDE, WE DEBATE THE CONTROVERSY AROUND LU DORT AND THE OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER, QUESTIONING WHETHER OKC HAS BECOME THE NBA’S BIGGEST “RAGE-BAIT” TEAM AND WHETHER DORT’S STYLE OF PLAY IS CROSSING THE LINE, WHILE ALSO ASKING IF IT’S HURTING THE LEAGUE’S OVERALL VIBE. FROM THERE WE MOVE TO THE NFL AND TALK ABOUT WHY THE NFL COMBINE HAS BECOME A BIGGER SPECTACLE THAN THE PRO BOWL, HIGHLIGHTING STANDOUT PERFORMANCES, THE PROSPECTS TURNING HEADS, AND WHY THE COMBINE CONTINUES TO DOMINATE THE NFL OFFSEASON CONVERSATION. WE ALSO TAKE A LOOK AT THE LATEST ACTOR AWARD WINNERS AND EARLY OSCARS BUZZ, SHARING OUR THOUGHTS AS HOLLYWOOD GEARS UP FOR THE BIGGEST NIGHT IN FILM, BEFORE CLOSING THE EPISODE WITH ANOTHER ROUND OF ELIMINATE ONE, WHICH TURNS INTO ONE OF THE BIGGEST DEBATE STARTERS OF THE SHOW. IF YOU ENJOY SPORTS DEBATES, ENTERTAINMENT TALK, POP CULTURE COMMENTARY, AND UNPREDICTABLE BANTER, THIS IS AN EPISODE YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS. NEW EPISODES DROP EVERY WEEK!

TIM KICKS THINGS OFF WITH HIS WOLFPACK CHECK-IN AFTER A TOUGH WOLVERHAMPTON LOSS, BREAKING DOWN WHAT WENT WRONG AND WHAT IT MEANS MOVING FORWARD IN THE EPL TABLE. WE THEN JUMP INTO OUR BANTER TAKES OF THE WEEK, INCLUDING THE VIRAL “PUNCH THE MONKEY” MOMENT THAT SOMEHOW CAPTURED THE WORLD’S ATTENTION, BEFORE REACTING TO ARTE MORENO’S COMMENTS ABOUT WINNING NOT BEING A TOP PRIORITY FOR FANS AND DEBATING WHETHER HE’S THE MOST DISCONNECTED OWNER IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL. FROM THERE, WE SHIFT TO THE NFL AS WE UNPACK MICAH PARSONS’ APPEARANCE ON OPEN THOUGHTS WITH FUNNY MARCO, HIS COMMENTS ABOUT MEDIA RAGE BAIT, AND WHETHER HE CONTRIBUTES TO THE SAME ENERGY HE CRITICIZES, PLUS WE REACT TO BLEACHER REPORT’S TOP 99 QUARTERBACKS OF ALL TIME LIST AND SHARE OUR BIGGEST DISAGREEMENTS. WE SLED STRAIGHT INTO OUR FINAL WINTER OLYMPICS RECAP, HIGHLIGHTING THE BIGGEST STORYLINES AND MOMENTS FROM THE GAMES, THEN INTRODUCE A BRAND-NEW SEGMENT CALLED “UNC TALK,” WHERE WE TRY (AND PROBABLY FAIL) TO DECODE GEN Z SLANG AND TRENDING PHRASES. FINALLY, WE CLOSE WITH ANOTHER ROUND OF OUR CONTROVERSIAL ELIMINATE 1 CATEGORY SEGMENT, WHERE OUR PICKS MIGHT HAVE YOU QUESTIONING US—BUT WE WANT TO HEAR YOURS IN THE COMMENTS.

WE KICK THINGS OFF WITH A WOLFPACK CHECK-IN, BREAKING DOWN THE FA CUP DRAW DRAMA SURROUNDING WOLVERHAMPTON AND WHAT IT MEANS MOVING FORWARD. IS THE WOLVES’ RUN SUSTAINABLE? ARE THEY GETTING RESPECT? THEN WE DIVE INTO BANTER TAKES, WHERE WE REACT TO THE VIRAL RUMOR OF MRBEAST POTENTIALLY OFFERING ECU $100 MILLION FOR NIL FUNDING. IF SOMETHING LIKE THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED, WOULD IT COMPLETELY RESHAPE COLLEGE FOOTBALL RECRUITING, POWER FIVE DOMINANCE, AND THE NIL ERA? COULD INFLUENCERS CHANGE THE SPORT FOREVER?
