Feed Drop - FH Commentary Bracket, Round One

[0:00] Hey everyone, I'm just checking in.

Dan McCoy

[0:08] As I said, we're going to do a couple of feed drops to keep people up to date on the state

[0:13] of the bracket, trying to decide what commentary for a previous Flophouse bad movie we will

[0:22] include on the bonus feed for MaxFun members this year.

[0:28] This was all explained in the last mini, what's going on, where you can vote, all that stuff.

[0:36] If you're not listening to the minis, why not?

[0:39] You're missing stuff like this.

[0:42] A lot of great stuff.

[0:44] Honestly, we get a little fewer people on the minis.

[0:49] Listen to the minis.

[0:50] There's good stuff on there.

[0:51] But anyway, for those of you who have been following it, this is the state of the bracket.

[0:58] Bratz won out over fateful findings.

[1:02] We got 52% Bratz, fateful findings, 48%.

[1:07] This was a battle of the titans.

[1:10] A lot of people were like, you know, finding fault with our seeding, being like, why did

[1:15] you put this against this?

[1:16] I think it should be clear to loyal listeners by now.

[1:20] We know nothing of sports things.

[1:22] I'm sorry if we did it wrong.

[1:24] You know, if we do this again, maybe we'll seek out some advice from the experts.

[1:29] But this was a random seed that we would have tweaked if we thought that things were far too unbalanced.

[1:38] There's, you know, there's at least one unbalanced race in this.

[1:42] And I think you can guess what it is once we get to it.

[1:45] But it was impossible to not have that somewhere along the line.

[1:51] But anyway, Bratz won out over fateful findings.

[1:54] A lot of controversy.

[1:55] I had forgotten that we did eventually release our Bratz riff show after some depressing events

[2:06] in history.

[2:09] But you know what?

[2:11] A riff show is a little different from what a commentary is.

[2:14] So Bratz still in the game.

[2:17] Next, we have the Country Bears.

[2:19] Country Bears won out 54% to 45%.

[2:27] There's some decimals in there that I neglected.

[2:29] But Country Bears won out over the happening.

[2:34] So and then moving down, you know, despite Stuart's best efforts to put his thumb on the scales,

[2:43] Food Fight still won over Talking Cat.

[2:46] Food Fight is the victor.

[2:47] 50.2% to 49.8%.

[2:52] I think that was the closest of any of the races.

[2:59] And then in sort of the Dark Horse bracket, we got Street Fighter, The Legend of Chun-Li.

[3:04] Won out over Easy Rider, The Ride Back.

[3:06] 59 to 41.

[3:10] And then, okay, we got The Wicker Man versus I Know Who Killed Me.

[3:13] The Wicker Man won out, despite being a pretty boring movie.

[3:18] I gotta admit, 58.8% to I Know Who Killed Me's 41.2.

[3:26] Thanks to everyone who tweeted at me, letting me know that I've been saying low and right

[3:30] all these years.

[3:32] And that Elliot and Stuart were wrong, as they frequently are, to mock me.

[3:39] Then we got You Were Kinder in this next round, this next race, than the Food Fight won.

[3:46] Tango and Cash won out over the Oogie Loves and the Big Balloon Adventure.

[3:51] It was 54.5% to 45.5%.

[3:55] Thank you for that one.

[3:58] I remember Stuart lying on the floor, writhing in pain during the Oogie Loves.

[4:03] So at least she showed us a little bit of mercy there.

[4:08] One of the bigger spreads, we got Serenity.

[4:12] Won out over No Deposit.

[4:14] That's 59.8% over 40.2%.

[4:18] And then, of course, I think we all saw it coming, the blowout of round one.

[4:27] Cats won out over Geostorm, 73.2% over 26.8%.

[4:36] Which means that going into the next round, the matchups that we'll be seeing are Brats versus

[4:45] the Country Bears.

[4:47] That's a big battle there.

[4:49] Food Fight!

[4:51] Exclamation point.

[4:52] Versus Street Fighter.

[4:54] The Legend of Chun-Li.

[4:57] I am pretty sure I know how that one's going to go.

[5:01] And Stuart's not going to be happy.

[5:03] We've got The Wicker Man versus Tango and Cash.

[5:07] Real heavy hitters.

[5:08] And then we've got Serenity versus Cats.

[5:13] Those are the standings.

[5:15] Again, if you want more detail on what's going on, go to the previous Flophouse mini episode.

[5:24] Voting in the next rounds will start next week over at the Flophouse's Twitter, which can

[5:30] be found at the Flophouse pod on Twitter.

[5:35] I know a lot of you try and stay away from Twitter.

[5:39] Understand.

[5:40] Probably a great choice.

[5:42] Apologies that that's where we're doing the voting, but it was the easiest way to reach

[5:49] the widest number of our followers.

[5:51] If you don't like Twitter, again, understand.

[5:55] But you can always get on there, get a burner account, vote, and then ignore it every time

[6:01] in the future.

[6:03] But yeah, that's the state of the Flophouse bracket.

[6:07] I hope everyone is managing to find, I don't know, some fun in the world as things are going

[6:17] to shit in multiple ways.

[6:20] But we hope that we can divert you with our silliness.

[6:26] So thanks for participating and a whole full episode on being the Ricardos will drop tomorrow.

[6:35] So look forward to that.

[6:36] For the Flophouse, I've been me, Dan McCoy.

S2

[6:40] I've said it before and I'll say it again.

[6:42] Democracy simply doesn't work.
