Thanks to the pandemic, this Christmas is just a little bit lonelier than usual. We can't go home, see our parents, and enjoy their "unique" opinions on the world. But, with technology, we can capture just a little bit of the magic of being with our families this holiday season. We've created a unique commentary track to play over the popular " Fireplace For Your Home: Classic Edition " film on Netflix that simulates the experience of being home with your folks. Through the magic of high-tech, f...

Full Court Chat is back! Maybe! Dave has received an email from a mysterious benefactor, promising to advertise on the show. A lifeline. A life preserver. One of those little floaty noodles they give to kids who can't swim. Noah John Jacobs says he has a product he wants to advertise on the show, and he's also willing to pay! This could be exactly what Dave needs to keep the show afloat, or it could be the curse that finally kills it dead. Follow Dave on Twitter @dave_schilling Noah John Jacobs:...

It's the season finale, and Dave is on the brink of losing it. Without sponsors, there's no way he can continue the show. His final, Hail Mary guest is professional wrestler Reggie Brubaker (Jon Gabrus: Comedy Bang Bang, Drunk History). Considering Dave's illustrious career as a writer for WWE, this guest should be a real "slam dunk," but Reggie proves to be a danger to both society and to himself. Can Dave keep it together long enough to finish the episode, or will Reggie drive him over the edg...

This week's guest isn't even old enough to drive, but he is old enough...to shred. Teenage X-Games skateboarder and Instagram influencer Marlowe Jenkins (Wilder Smith) is as gnarly, radical, and extreme as it gets, but he's never had to withstand the harsh, journalistical grilling of master interviewer Dave Schilling. Marlowe's one million IG followers worship him for his sick tricks and fresh clothes from super hot brands like Supreme, but Dave is not easily impressed by all that. Finally, some...

Absent-minded baseball fan Steve Bartman's innocent attempt to catch a foul ball in Game 6 of the 2003 National League Championship Series cost the Chicago Cubs a chance to go to the World Series for the first time since 1945 and changed the course of baseball history forever. Death threats, public shaming, and a life spent in hiding were Bartman's rewards for his brush with infamy. The scapegoat of the 2003 NLCS has never agreed to an interview...until now.
