Episode Details

WELCOME BACK TO BANTER ON THE ROCKS! AFTER TAKING A WEEK TO SPOTLIGHT OUR BEHIND THE BANTER INTERVIEWS, WE'RE BACK WITH ANOTHER JAM-PACKED EPISODE FULL OF SPORTS, ENTERTAINMENT, MOVIES, AND UNFILTERED CONVERSATION. IF YOU MISSED OUR LATEST INTERVIEWS, BE SURE TO CHECK THEM OUT RIGHT HERE ON YOUTUBE OR LISTEN ON APPLE PODCASTS, SPOTIFY, AND AMAZON MUSIC. THIS WEEK, WE KICK THINGS OFF WITH BANTER TAKES, BREAKING DOWN TOM BRADY'S APPEARANCE AT FANATICS FEST, WHETHER A WWE RUN SHOULD REALLY BE IN HIS FUTURE, AND OUR HONEST THOUGHTS ON THE CHAOTIC SPECTACLE THAT FANATICS FEST HAS BECOME. WE ALSO DIVE INTO THE EVOLUTION OF ENTERTAINMENT, DEBATING WHETHER PODCASTS ARE REPLACING TRADITIONAL LATE-NIGHT TELEVISION AND WHY THE FUTURE OF TALK SHOWS MAY LIVE ON YOUTUBE AND PODCAST PLATFORMS INSTEAD. NEXT, WE HEAD INTO THE BANTER SPORTSBOOK TO COVER THE BIGGEST STORIES ACROSS THE NBA, NFL, AND MLB, BEFORE WRAPPING UP OUR FINAL WOLF PACK CHECK-IN WITH A FULL RECAP OF THE 2026 FIFA WORLD CUP FINAL. WE SHARE OUR BIGGEST TAKEAWAYS FROM THE TOURNAMENT, DISCUSS THE MOMENTS THAT DEFINED THIS HISTORIC WORLD CUP, AND REFLECT ON WHAT THE COMPETITION MEANS FOR THE FUTURE OF INTERNATIONAL SOCCER. FINALLY, IT'S TIME FOR REELS ON THE ROCKS, WHERE WE UPDATE OUR SUMMER MOVIE BASH STANDINGS FOLLOWING THE RELEASE OF THE ODYSSEY, AND JOHN DELIVERS HIS SPOILER-FREE REVIEW OF ONE OF THE YEAR'S MOST ANTICIPATED FILMS. IT'S A MOVIE THAT REMINDS US WHY THE THEATER EXPERIENCE IS STILL UNMATCHED AND WHY SOME STORIES SIMPLY HAVE TO BE SEEN ON THE BIG SCREEN. SO GRAB YOUR FAVORITE DRINK, SIT BACK, AND JOIN US FOR ANOTHER EPISODE OF GREAT BANTER, HOT TAKES, AND PLENTY OF LAUGHS.
