Just hours before the first NFL game, Coop and Cal return from a summer sports hiatus (they don't do baseball, bro) with all of the fantasy football advice you needed weeks ago when you were drafting. They also tackle problematic rookie contracts and the new partnership between Jay Z and the NFL...

005: Final Fantasy

In this episode, Coop & Cal go upper 90 on the Women's World Cup, discussing pay discrimination and whether centering the issue around the USWNT will have the desired result. They also return to their NBA roots to address the free agency rollercoaster, the prospect of basketball replacing soccer as the top international sport, and whether the superteam era could be a fad. 

004: A Bunch of Goldfish

After two NBA-centric eps, Coop & Cal invite their first guest onto the show to help them break the hockey barrier. Joe Milo, a former college hockey player, clocks in to talk Stanley Cup finals, the physical repercussions of pro sports, and how Wayne Gretzky stacks up to other sports greats. There is also a surprisingly complete conversation about whether or not college athletes should be paid. 

003: Six Pairs of Garage Doors

Coop & Cal do big NBA things in episode 2, discussing the MVP award, the societal implications of the finals, and Drake's revolutionary approach to personal space. They also lay out a soon-to-be-trademarked 4-tier hierarchy of team types (bad, good, great, and cool) and drag Lagunitas again, all while Coop reveals his totally unacceptable anti-Canadian prejudices. 

002: Bad Team, Good Team, Great Team, Cool Team

On Coop & Cal's maiden voyage, they discuss all things NBA playoffs, from the league's player-centric brand and Harden's late-round woes, to whether Steph Curry is humble. They also roast mainstream IPA's, briefly tackle the idea of A.I. referees, and make all of the errors you’ll come to expect them to.

001: Is Steph Curry Humble?

Coop knows nothing and Cal knows very little, but that doesn't stop them from acting like they've got the sports world all figured out. Listen to their band, SPIRIT ANIMAL, wherever music is streamed and follow them on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook at @SpiritAnimalUS and @CalStampMusic.
