Hello! It’s the podcast that was only $300 million away from saving the Connecticut Sun. Today, Katie and the Casualties take a look at a week full of sports headlines that AREN’T April Fools jokes, but might as well be - are the Golden Knights really hiring John Tortorella with 8 games left in the season?

Jordan and Jesse Plemons' bromance, Leonardo DiCaprio's mustache, Pedro Pascal's lack of a mustache, and the tied award that put way too much weight on Kumail Nanjiani's shoulders. Then, Jeopardy!

Katie and the Casualties then touch on Team USA's sled hockey gold, Hofstra, Miami of Ohio, the Goo Goo Dolls, and the Men's NCAA Bracket, before diving into an in-depth look at the Women's Bracket. We asked the communications departments of all 68 teams in the tournament about the single most fun fact about their roster, and then picked the first-round matchups based on it. Who has a pet hedgehog? Who bakes? Who does Legos on road trips? Whose mom was in Degrassi? Who has a TikTok account strictly for Tall Girl Fashion? Are we blacklisted in Baton Rouge? And will any of this help us pick the winners? And finally, Chris wraps the show with a look at What to Watch in sports this week. Join the Bracket Challenge! Click Here Casuals merch!
