About this listen

Misery loves company, and there's a sports podcast for that. Join sportswriter Laura Albanese and avid fan Cole Critchell as they break down and recap the latest in sports, with a ton of movie references thrown in, and just the right amount of anguish. Often wrong and barely right, it's about the frenemies and fun you had along the way. (We're all having fun, right??)

    Episode 51. Choke Artists Ft. Brian Compton (NHL.com)
    May 27 2025

    Laura is a Stuart Skinner believer...and everyone else isn't. NHL.com managing editor Brian Compton is on to talk about Connor McDavid & co., and if anyone has a legitimate chance at unseating the Panthers. We reminisce about the old Nassau Coliseum, wonder what's next for the Maple Leafs, and consider the value of Waffle House. Cole thinks the Pacers are going to drop the ball and lays out the blueprint for Kincks supremacy. Plus, please learn how to act at airports. It's an unhinged episode for an unhinged month of sports.

    Episode 50! A celebration & Breaking News! Ft. Laura Albanese (Newsdays NEW Mets beat reporter) & Cole Critchell (Sports fan from his couch)
    May 20 2025

    Fifty episodes! And somehow, this humble podcast is kinda big in...Saudi Arabia? Cole and Laura celebrate the milestone by sharing some big news. They break down the WWE-style showdown between Jalen Bruson's Knicks and Tyrese Haliburton's Pacers, and give a shout out to the trolls and haters who keep the sports world alive. Laura is in Boston with the Mets and she dives into the Juan Soto controversy and gives her take. Plus, NHL Final Four action, and a requiem for the Maple Leafs, who haven't won a Stanley Cup since Mike Meyers made them in The Love Guru. It's been a wild ride so far. Thanks for listening!

    Episode 49. Baseball is Cinema Ft. John DeMarsico(SNY Broadcast)
    May 13 2025

    Baseball is cinema, and SNY's John DeMarsico is its rockstar director. Cole and Laura go behind the scenes with the man that's gone viral for the artistic vision behind Mets broadcasts, and chat about the films that inspire shots of Pete Alonso about to absolutely destroy a baseball. Plus, Jalen Brunson is a legend, Golden Knights fans may be the actual worst, and Mrs. Met is back on Twitter, and people are being weird about it. Again.
