Big Cat went from saying no one cares about your fantasy team to an entire bad Yak Episode dedicated to one

[@claytron3000]

BC seemed to not understand how a fantasy draft works. He was completely confused through out the whole thing.

[@Gkslldkfhvdsff]

Almost like it was forced content from the companies biggest sponsor

[@ninjafofo72]

Did Kate legitimately think anyone wanted to hear her “puns” every pick?

[@kylemk1838]

Wow, worst Yak draft ever - they didn't even eat their draft picks after selecting them! Sad to see what this show has become.

[@razorback6111]

Dan Katz: “Nobody cares about your fantasy team” Also Dan Katz: 2 hours of whatever this was

[@g5058]

Kate making a word play joke before each draft pick genuinely made me stop listening today good lord never do that again

[@SAsh-zg6ln]

Draft kings draft events should be a picks central thing not a yak thing

[@johnstrom5910]

Well nobody watches Picks Central so that's gonna be a hard no from DraftKings on that one. I assume they want actual views when they do this...

[@SAsh-zg6ln]

@@johnstrom5910 true but the yak ain’t the place for it. It’s literally under comedy on podcasts. Wtf does a 5 round nfl draft in July have to do with comedy? I guess it’s funny having a draft this early? I feel like they’re usually in August. I’m a big football guy and don’t care for fantasy draft bs. I just bet the games

[@limpraise403]

@@SAsh-zg6ln Brother i've been doing best ball drafts since May 😂

[@ML-kx9gz]

Agreed. But if it gets the boys paid and during a slow time in the summer, so be it. If they see nothing from it (likely so) then definitely this should not be part of the yak, although the yak does enjoy drafts (I always end up skipping those episodes to be completely honest with yall, they just... dont do anything for me personally) It's a good way to kill some time I suppose. I think it would be far more interesting if everyone was assigned 2 items one good one bad and as a group they have to come together to make something at least somewhat edible. To me that'd be a little more interesting and more engaging as well naturally.

Yall should do a whole show of sponsored bits, and then follow that up with a Mook and Kate only week.

Kate having the constant need to be a champion for women everywhere is such an annoying bit at this point. Also when she has to defend every single girl mentioned on the show but at the same time she says some of the meanest comments about random dudes without even thinking about it (Mook catches so many of these strays)

[@Tuamotu]

She also says terrible things about herself

Kate repeatedly telling a person from Louisiana to name state in New England then not even know any her self really enraged me. You could hear the annoyance from big cat when he kept telling her she doesn’t know those states.

[@panda_shark]

I out loud shouted STFU around the 4th or 5th time she said it. Before it was even revealed that she also doesn’t know what they are.

[@christianburgoyne5391]

Kate thinking 1972 till now is 4 generations is bananas. It’s like 1.5 generations.

[@Tuamotu]

She doesn't know how to convert military time to standard time. She subtracts 2 and can't understand why people subtract 12. She's as bright as a dull grey rock.

This is my favorite podcast, I don't know the words I can say to make that mean more. Please never do a draft like this again, fear not, you'll likely not see me post a criticism every again (or one not mook related because he also drags the show down)

You’ll be back whining later this week crybaby

[@braceyoself_]

This was the worst endorsement of an app and service I've seen in a while. LOL. Being late to your draft because you couldn't get in and the link didn't work, giving up on making good picks, and declaring you just found out how to search for players near the end of the draft... Wow. lol Still love the Yak, though. Megan's gauntlet run, minus the sporkle, was great.

[@cchhaadd33]

Man the yak post SOABD has really never found its footing again. Half the episodes are like tank Thursdays except instead it’s Kate and Mook, the other episodes are a split of terrible ad deal episodes with a few gems sprinkled in here and there. Going from the likes of Caleb/Rone to Mook/Kate is a tough pill to swallow

[@aaaaaaaaa470]
