This episode starts with a 10-minute discussion of the film Rookie of the Year, which some may call "cope." Alas, the 2025 New York Mets were bad. Isn't that more interesting than them being good? (That's cope.)

Ellen, David, and Kait talk about who they would most like to see in the World Series and come to an identical conclusion which is likely to shock you: We don't want the Philadelphia Phillies, Los Angeles Dodgers, or New York Yankees to be in it. Otherwise it's all gravy. (I'm sorry for saying I don't really root for the Cubs—I will because my Aunt Karen likes them so much and this video of Seiya Suzuki's son was so cute.)

We distribute one last batch of King of New York awards to some of the most deserving and sweetest.

Once again we ask Pete Alonso not to break our hearts.
