Americarnage

Nat, Mike and Dan aren't in the studio this week, it's just Harry the Producer and he has some news for ya'll.

With Nat on IR with a Filming, Mike and Dan needed a safe pair of hands to help them out with tonight’s show and they don’t come much safer (well, there is one guy…) than Mr Hockey Erik Janssen who immediately has the guys talking about money and not taking your dad to work… In other news: Mancave have 20% off all gift sets and buckets in honour of Father’s Day so buy some, tell yourself you’re going to give it to him, then keep it; Unibet are dishing out a £25 deposit bonus when you sign...

Nat, Mike and… Well, that’s it this week as Hollywood is wrapped up in other business and the super-secret special guest fails to materialise – no, names, no pack duty to paraphrase the Iron One – but the guys might have done the odd show together so we’re in safe hands here. It’s not Americarnage After Dark, it’s Americarnage Before Sunrise – but who’s Ethan Hawke…? In other news: The Americarnage Question of the Week offers up another winner of epic amounts of goodies, guaranteed to let...

Nat, Mike and Dan are all together again! It seems like it’s been ages but in many ways, not long enough… To make things even better the gang are joined by the award-winning sports journalist, old friend of Iron Mike and man who holds the key to the question he must never answer “will there be a London Franchise?” NFL’s David Tossell. In other news: Mike talks about what it is to be human; Dan talks about great telly; David mentions his new book which you need to buy – The Girls of Summer...

Nat and Dan rock up to the studio this week in the certain knowledge that the Iron One is elsewhere, although quite what this means is up for debate – options include stumping for Ted Cruz, doing things for the mob and other less (more?) salubrious options. Whatever he’s up to he’s sent in lots of good stuff and, what’s more, the guys are joined by the legend that is Erik The Producer Janssen. In other news: the Mancave Champions Club App Question of the Week winner this week is Mr James...

With Nat still in Panama dealing with the fallout of recent events, Mike and Dan find themselves doing a two-hander this week, something that immediately and unsurprisingly becomes a bit rude. It involves hands. In other news: Mike stood in for Nat on Talksport 2 the other night, it was fun; the Question of the Week on the Mancave app is Adam Wright from Cardiff – he wins a big box of goodies and you can too; Dan has a lot of three points, but that’s what happens when he’s not allowed to...

Mike and Dan shake off the Stratford/Greenwich Arena dust and get down to some NFL preseason bidness, aided by do- five-shows-and-get-a-free-one man of the hour Ben Isaacs. Nat shakes off the dust of the Americarnage studio and does something else and gets away remarkably lightly for it... In other news: Dan liked Blur before they were cool; Mike liked Daley Thompon before decathlon was cool; Ben likes Party Down because it's never been cool - but it is damn good; the Olympics need to get...

Nat, Mike and Dan have returned to Camden and it only takes them 45 seconds before the arguments start. Luckily, Marek Larwood is back from his run at the Edinburgh Festival and he gets it even earlier... In other news: Preseason is over! It meant something, promise...; regular season is very nearly here and Nat and Mike will be bringing it to you not just here but on Channel 4; biggest preseason losers were Tebow and Sanchez; the Giants are a bunch of bullys; Dan was there when Vick got...

Nat, Mike and Dan are multitalented guys. Violent, unpredictable, multitalented guys. This week they demonstrate this by revealing new skills, old methods of greeting, new things about old films, new things about new sport and much more besides. They're aided in this rollercoaster ride by the incomparable Luke Moore of The Football Ramble who fits in with this bunch of reprobates with disturbing ease... In other news: In-jokes from off-air are not good, ignore them; books have been read,...

With Iron Mike still providing for all your Olympic basketball needs with the BBC and Tuneesha having her arse implants removed, Nat and Dan were feeling pretty blue. That is until the coolest man in sports broadcasting, Phil Spooner, said he'd pop down to the studios to school the guys in the ways of the Chargers fan... In other news: Friend of the show Marek Larwood is at the Pleasance in Edinburgh, go and see him; Dan keeps it light with the end of the world; pre-season starts tonight...

Nat and Dan are strangers in the strange land of the 1st week of regular season, especially seeing as Iron Mike isn't here to guide them. Luckily they have a guide in the form of stand-up, writer, and (amongst other things) MC for London Irish Caimh McDonnell. In other news: Caimh loves NFL but has no team to call his own, the guys make careful and reasoned recommendations; Dredd 3D is beautiful according to Hollywood; Bronson Pinchot gets the most exposure he's had in nearly three...

Mike and Dan are a pair of horse-collaring, facemask pulling unnecessarily rough low-blockers and with Nat out with a tooth injury, Harry the Producer is left to rain flags down like the ill-informed scab ref he is. Luckily for everyone stand-up comic, Bills fan and all-round awesome guy Lee Bannard is in the studio this week to keep the guys on the straight and true...In other news: Dan's watched some films, they were good; Mike's watched some films, they're also good but what the hell is...

The whole gang's in town tonight to toast the awesomeness of all thngs American Sports-related. Mike got an early start but HdP is in this for the long haul...

Nat, Mike and Dan are sportsmen - big, brute, sweaty sportsmen. Mike's so much of a sportsman he's not even here this week and the guys are joined by the seriously funny comedian/actor/bagpipe-ist Dave Whitney. Dan's stepping up to the plate though and doing a half-marathon in aid of a cure for leukemia and lymphoma. Sponsor him here: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/DanLouw In other news: Dan likes chunky kitkats, Nat does not; Russell Wilson and Braylon Edwards makes Pats fans cry;...

Nat, Mike and Dan are all back in the house and they're so glad to see each other that the arguments take several real minutes to materialise.

Mike and Nat are bereft as Holywood Dan takes the Premier League football option and doesn't make it to the studio this week. To mask their distress they pretend it doesn't matter to them but the hurt is ever close to the surface. To help them through this difficult time they invite ESPN America head honcho (he honches heads you know) and College Football supremo Patrick 'Paddy the Brick' Sturgeon. In other news: The refs are back and it's already easy to forget how bad the first few weeks...

Nat, Mike and Dan are trendsetters, pacemakers and serial word-abusers.

In other news: Spike Lee catches bats; Mike talks books; the All-Star game comes up again; big contracts in the NFL; crazy contracts in the NHL; the grand return of Twit of Twat; your questions in the Bodeans...

Nat, Mike and Dan value their time together but, like every disfunctional proto-three-way-affair masquerading as a podcast, they need some time apart. This week Mike and Dan have taken their turns in the isolation huts but, as a proper treat, Nat is joined by the incomperable Marek Larood and King of BBQ Andre Blais. In other news: Chipper Jones is in his last All-Star game and Carlson will be covering while Nat's away next week; Nat's got a new column on ESPN, the guys haven't read it;...

Mike and Dan make their glorious return to the studio in lovely Camden Town but find that the host's chair is empty as Nat's taking his turn in the Americarnage isolation hut for a week of nihilistic shouting along the lines of 'Tebow for President'. Meanwhile, back in reality, the guys are joined by friend of the show, ex-pat Canadian and the man who will bring you the Olympic Rhythmic Gymnastics, Erik Janssen. Hurrah! In other news: The Tree of Life is a contentious film; Dan loves The...
