The Mediocre Podcast
by Kendall Wagner
#TheMediocrePodcast is, well, a mediocre podcast about a group of 10 friends (and Buck) who've been playing fantasy football together for awhile. Join hosts Nic and Alex as they break down weekly FAM League fantasy matchups, talk football, and catch up on life. Producer Kendall rounds out the team as the guys work semi-regularly to attempt mediocrity in the podcasting space. New episodes available whenever the guys get around to it, but hopefully weekly throughout football season. Follow the guys nowhere, because they aren't really on social media.

Episode 58: Peter’s Baptism, Trade Messiah, Back 2 Back
In Episode 58 and the season 3 finale of ‘The Mediocre Podcast’, Producer Kendall celebrates the first back-to-back championships in league history with a lyrical undressing of 2nd place finisher and definitely not above the Tetas, Peter; it’s not gay if it’s your bro. ZBreezy tops off the Trade Messiah with his first musical appearance on the pod before hosts Nic and Alex get on their knees for the champ in a season-finale reminiscent of those villa nights. To our 30-75 listeners, we thank you for rocking with us this season, and until next time: stay mediocre (unlike the champion and GOAT, Producer Kendall). Producer Kendall’s “Lock of the Week”: GOAT (6-10 in Picks, 11-6 in fantasy; back-to-back champion)

In the spirit of Festivus, the guys participate in a group therapy session airing out their grievances and working towards a common goal: inclusivity and minimizing crash outs over fantasy. A sick Producer Kendall forgoes what is likely to be his final Champion’s Corner, instead crediting his Tetas’ inspirational and improbable return to the Fantasy Finals. Christmas traditions and a much-tighter-than-expected race for last place round out what some are calling the Mediocre Podcast’s “Come to Jesus” moment. Happy Holidays from the Mediocre boys!Producer Kendall’s “Lock of the Week”: JT over Kendall (6-9 in Picks, 10-6 in fantasy; in the Finals)

Later on, Daddy Yanick announces he’ll never be able to sleep 8hrs again with an adoption update for the ages. With the playoffs upon the league, some pod members handle results better than others as host Nic melts down like Michael’s kid in 2 years. Congrats Michael and Alex, definitely keep your kids away from Nic and JT when they get released from fantasy prison.

Twenty-five trade offers later, serial trade grapist TamBreezy sets the Champion’s Corner ablaze with a direct response to ScarBreezy’s copper-selling hit “The Red Button.” Many are calling it the best diss of all time! Alex defends his best-ever 88 on the golf course before the guys sign off on another steaming hot pile of (Michael’s team) episode. Nice shot!

Young ears beware. Elsewhere in the episode, the Champ for (hopefully) only 1 more week ScarBreezy drops a mediocre af diss track in his Champion’s Corner before the guys recap their holiday and drop gems on how to navigate some of life’s challenges including how often to shampoo one’s hair. Whoever said The Mediocre Podcast was just a fantasy football pod was sorely mistaken. Producer Kendall’s ‘Stone Cold Lock of the Week’: **** you Stefon Diggs.

ABOUT THIS SHOW
#TheMediocrePodcast is, well, a mediocre podcast about a group of 10 friends (and Buck) who've been playing fantasy football together for awhile. Join hosts Nic and Alex as they break down weekly FAM League fantasy matchups, talk football, and catch up on life. Producer Kendall rounds out the team as the guys work semi-regularly to attempt mediocrity in the podcasting space. New episodes available whenever the guys get around to it, but hopefully weekly throughout football season. Follow the guys nowhere, because they aren't really on social media.
