🧨 The Outcast Podcast – Episode #155
“Billionaire Brawls, Busted Hooters & Bat-Torpedoes”

This week on The Outcast Podcast, your favorite trio of misfits – Gentry, Tomkat, and Memphis – are swinging for the fences with a lineup of hot topics that hit harder than an NBA elbow. We got torpedo bats, billionaires flexin’, Hooters crashin’, and a salute to one of Hollywood’s coolest cats. Let’s break it down…

The Bronx Bombers are literally bombing now – the Yankees unveiled a controversial new “torpedo bat” during Spring Training and it’s got everyone from pitchers to purists up in arms. We debate whether this is innovation… or just another shortcut in baseball's long line of gimmicks.

It’s that time of year when brackets break, dreams die, and one Cinderella story keeps dancing. We throw down our Final Four picks, sleeper squads, and the one team that’s absolutely going to ruin your bracket. Spoiler alert: Memphis is betting on chaos.

We had some fun with OpenAI’s latest trick – the ChatGPT photo generator. From AI selfies to dream vacations that never happened, we go deep into the uncanny valley. Tomkat may have created an AI version of himself as a pirate DJ. It’s weird. It’s hilarious. You’ll want to see the pics.

The Detroit Pistons and Minnesota Timberwolves just gave us a throwback to the 'Malice in the Palace' era with an all-out sideline scuffle. That led us to a deep dive into…

From Charles Oakley body-slams to Ron Artest going full WWE in the crowd, we reminisce on the most jaw-dropping moments when NBA players forgot they were on national TV. Let’s just say, Dennis Rodman makes more than one appearance in this conversation.

The new Forbes Billionaires List just hit, and it’s dripping with tech moguls, fashion kings, crypto comebacks, and one or two eyebrow-raisers. We talk who’s rising, who’s falling, and how the world’s richest keep getting richer (hint: it’s not by working 9 to 5).

Say it ain’t so! Hooters is reportedly filing for bankruptcy. The wings, the orange shorts, the awkward family dinners – gone?! We unpack how a place once considered "iconic Americana" may have become a relic of the past… and what this says about shifting cultural norms.

Lastly, we take a moment to remember the one and only Val Kilmer – from Top Gun to The Doors to Tombstone, his career left a permanent mark on film and pop culture. We reflect on his legacy, his battle with illness, and the unforgettable characters he brought to life.

The Outcast Podcast – Blog Recap: Tribute to Griff Gotti, Branding Blunders, Leaked War Plans & Sweet 16 Madness
Episode Date: [Insert This Week’s Date]

This week on The Outcast Podcast, the crew came in hot with a blend of heart, humor, and “how the hell did that happen?” moments. We covered it all—remembering a fallen friend, roasting brands that missed the mark, uncovering a national security oopsie, and diving into Sweet 16 bracket madness.

A Tribute to Griff Gotti
We kicked off the show with a moment of remembrance for our brother Griff Gotti, who passed away on this day back in 2020. Griff was more than just a friend—he was family. A real one. His voice, his energy, his laughter, and his stories are still with us, living rent-free in our hearts and in the studio. Whether you knew him from the booth or the block, you knew Griff was one of one. We shared some classic Griff stories, laughed, reflected, and honored the legacy he left behind. Rest easy, Gotti. You’ll never be forgotten.

When Brands Miss the Mark
From awkward slogans to full-blown marketing disasters, we took a hilarious ride through the land of branding mishaps. You’d think billion-dollar companies would have a few more filters before putting stuff out in the world, but apparently not. We broke down everything from laundry detergent with a name that sounds like a villain, to fast food items no one asked for (looking at you, pickled donut burger). The crew voted on which branding faceplant was the worst—and funniest.

Oops… You’re in the War Room
In a real-life case of “Reply All Gone Wrong”, a journalist recently found themselves accidentally added to a military group chat that contained war plans. Yes—actual war plans. We’re talking troop movements, tactical objectives, the whole playbook. We unpacked how something this wild even happens in 2025, and what it says about our national security protocols. Spoiler: Memphis doesn’t trust group chats anymore.

Sweet 16 Bracket Chaos
March Madness is in full effect, and so is the bracket beef. We broke down this year’s Sweet 16 matchups, highlighted the biggest upsets so far, and roasted each other’s busted brackets. Tom Kat, as usual, thinks he’s got it all figured out. Ramo's bracket is still somehow alive. Gentry’s might as well be a napkin. The crew also weighed in on who’s looking Final Four-ready and who’s about to choke under the pressure.

Final Thoughts
This episode had everything: love, laughs, leaks, and layups. From honoring Griff Gotti to clowning on corporate fails and debating bracketology, The Outcast Podcast brought you another week of unfiltered truth and unpredictable fun.

Welcome back, Outcasts! This week’s episode takes you on a wild ride through time, fame, and some straight-up bizarre headlines. As always, your favorite crew—Gentry, Tomkat, Memphis, and Ramo G—bring the heat with unfiltered takes, laughter, and maybe a few deep thoughts (but not too deep—we’re still degenerates at heart).

We kick things off with a little time travel. If you could sit down with your 70-year-old self, what would you ask? Would you want to know how you die? (Morbid.) Did you ever finally hit it big? (Doubt it.) Or maybe just whether your knees still work? (Probably not.) The Outcasts each reveal what they’d ask their future selves, and let’s just say… some of us are more worried about our hairlines than our legacies.

Next, we dive into Captain America himself, Anthony Mackie, and his brutally honest take on success in Hollywood. Mackie’s been grinding for decades, but he keeps it real about how fleeting fame can be. He reminds us that no matter how big you get, you’re still one bad role away from doing car commercials. We break down his perspective, share our own hustling experiences, and ask: What really defines success?

Vive la France… or maybe not? Apparently, the French are making some noise about wanting the Statue of Liberty back. That’s right, the ultimate American symbol of freedom technically belongs to France, and now some folks overseas are rethinking the gift. Should we let them take Lady Liberty back home? Or is this just another case of international trolling? We get into it, and of course, take some jabs at the French along the way.

And finally, comedy legend Tracy Morgan had an unforgettable courtside moment—literally. The dude puked ON the court during an NBA game, and the reactions were priceless. Was it the arena hot dogs? The halftime show? Or just Tracy being Tracy? We break it down, discuss the most embarrassing public pukes of all time, and debate whether throwing up on live TV is a career-defining moment or just another Tuesday.
