Dana Beers and the 'Home by 3' podcast (Jordan Schmaltz and Rob) will compete in a 'Yugoff' (chugging contest) to determine ownership of the phrase 'That's Baseball,' which both parties claim to have popularized. The hosts plan for a multi-game, home-and-away series to resolve this 'dumbest controversy ever.'

Tate discussed the impact of last year's failure (57:00) and his training, stating, 'from the first of the year till February 27th, I was making sure I knew I could do it.' (1:06:51) The hosts showed a clip of him doing 14 reps (0:59:01).

The annual 'Doug Dug' challenge is planned with a 'Team No Napkins' theme, a 9-person crew, and Big Cat driving a 12-person van, promising a messy and entertaining event focused on consuming large quantities of food and drink.
