Huck and Hope: Episode 2 - The Fastest Growing Sport in the Nation Aug 23, 2023

Ultimate frisbee is growing fast and there are riches to be had - supposedly. Patrick Stegemoeller and Brian Kibler look at some of the people, organizations, and businesses like the Rochester Dragons that got swept up in the excitement, energy, and optimism of an era where it seemed like the sport was one step away from making the leap to mainstream legitimacy, and the reality of what these schemes really meant.

Let It Rip Jul 29, 2022

It's Wildwood and STF somehow made it to 150 episodes, so what better way to celebrate than with a wildly indulgent episode about sun, sand, good times, and staring into the void? Before they get to Wildwood, Tad reports from the second leg of the Mid-Atlantic Party Tournament Triple Crown Tour, aka Mars. Then it's down to the boardwalk, Bolero, and beyond as the guys look at Wildwood from every angle with listener emails, dissect beer garden etiquette, and crown the best team name of Wildwood 2022. It's arguably the richest and most compelling episode yet.

The World's Game Jul 16, 2022

Summertime Gladness Jun 24, 2022

It's hot as hell and we love it.

You may be entitled to compensation! Call today! Pat kicked off the summer at Windmill this past weekend, and has plenty to say about the ecstatic experience of the tournament, crazy European team rituals, and the truly confounding band that played the tournament party.

Winding Up Jun 13, 2022

Pat and Tad welcome Ravi Vasudevan of the Eurozone podcast onto the program to preview the return of Europe’s legendary Windmill tournament.

Back to Milwaukee May 20, 2022

With D-I Nationals returning to Milwaukee, Pat and Tad recall the past two eventful Nationals in the place some have called the Paris of southeastern Wisconsin. On the field and off the field, from the conception of the show in 2015 to their inadvertent stay in an actual murder house in 2018, Nationals in Milwaukee is a key part of the STF tapestry. Also, they throw baseless accusations around about how UVA got food poisoning in 2015. Discerning minds want to know.

Many Things, Most Places, Nowish May 06, 2022

After a brief hiatus, STF is back. It's a busy time on the ultimate calendar, with college Regionals, pro seasons, and club tryouts all kicking off at once. Pat and Tad do their best to cover everything, everywhere, all at once. They talk the AUDL's 10th anniversary season and reflect back on the wild early days of the league, get into the college Regionals pick em' bet they made with Deep Look, and chat about what it is like to run club tryouts. Also, thoughts on the end of an era on Ultimate Twitter with the Being Ulti guy moving on, and also some elk stuff. Oh yeah, there is elk stuff.

Two Sad Men, Wishing They Could Boo a DJ Apr 08, 2022

Pat and Tad lament what has become of them as they both missed Fools Fest this year and turn to some first hand reports from listeners of a particularly antagonistic tournament party DJ.
Then the guys assess the college scene and debate what should be done about New England men only getting two bids despite having six top teams. Their answers may shock and surprise you! (And unsurprisingly involves a story from the late 2000’s Metro East.)
All that plus a special announcement about Skylander and a TTF that is frankly a bit all over the place.

Winter League, High Tide, and Boldfaced Gaslighting Mar 18, 2022

In this grab bag episode, Pat and Tad touch on everything from Winter League finals to a college freshman listener’s first High Tide. Then the guys welcome Edward Stephens on to break down, in excruciating detail, the event of the college season thus far: Mamabird gaslighting that dude on Brown into thinking he caught his own throw in the SMI championship.

They Bled Black Mar 04, 2022

Pat and Tad are super excited to have Jamie Houssian and Dan Schneider from the University of California at Santa Barbara on the program to talk about "I Bleed Black," the groundbreaking documentary charting UCSB's journey to Nationals in 2001. They discuss making the film, go into detail on what college ultimate was like twenty years ago, and how they live with the legacy of the film today. Plus, some utterly shameless slander of the rest of the UC schools.
They also announce the winners of the Pickle Juice contest and try out the three winning concoctions. Tad really regrets not getting the correct ingredients.

College Regrets & Super Bowl Bets Feb 18, 2022

Pat and Tad nurse the wounds of some near-miss Super Bowl bets, forcing them to confront how sports gambling hollows out one of the last pure pleasures in life. Fun! They also recap some of the sideline shenanigans from Florida Warm Up, including a BYU player doing the coolest thing anyone has ever done in a game. Then, they discuss a listener email that asks them to consider a probably unhealthy temptation: If you could go back in time and play your first-ever college tournament as a 29 year old adult club player, what would you do differently? Some moderately helpful advice is given, and some truly embarrassing revelations are made.

Florida Warms Up (Our Cold Dead Hearts) Feb 04, 2022

After two years, Florida Warm Up is back! Pat and Tad celebrate the return of their favorite college tournament with friend of the pod and Warm Up veteran Daniel Prentice. They recall their favorite memory involving each team in the field this year and unpack why Warm Up is the purest version of college ultimate.
Plus, Daniel defends moving to North Carolina right as it’s becoming the Seattle of the East Coast, fully breaking down the end of Cheer Season 2’s many parallels to ultimate, and the announcement of the exciting new Pickle Juice challenge.

The Winter of Our Discontent Jan 21, 2022

Amidst Tad coping with the Steelers losing and Pat ranting about the new season of Cheer, the guys find time to talk about winter league. Indoor or outdoor? Draft league or clique? Weeknight or weekend? Trying hard or trying way too hard? Does it ruin your outdoor game? From the bottom of January's despair, they hope to emerge with some truths.
Later, the guys read out some stellar listener stories of psychos storming off the field, and dedicate an entire TTF to when organizing a pickup game goes wrong.

Reheated College Nationals Leftovers Jan 07, 2022

Pat and Tad begin the new year by looking back a couple weeks to the weird 2021 College Nationals, with some aged takes that were mildly relevant two weeks ago. How should we feel about this whole event? Do these UNC titles count the same as the rest? How did the Metro East do? Did Pitt men's really not make the bracket? What justifies tripping an opponent in cold blood? STF gets into all that and more. The guys also talk about their New Year's resolutions, another year of dry January, and when it's appropriate to storm off the field in righteous indignation.

College Nationals and Christmas Wagers Dec 17, 2021

2021 Club POTY and STF All-Star extraordinaire Lindsay Soo joins Pat and Tad to discuss the winter College Nationals, critique Callahan videos, and lay down some takes. Which teams should you root for? Which teams should you hex? Soo has got answers for you. The gang also reveal their biggest Callahan video turn offs and speculate about how many wins the Metro East can pull off this year.
All that plus some Christmas tidings, a great nickname origin story, and some important pet owner discourse in TTF.

Horsing Around Dec 03, 2021

"Ultimate." It's a bad name. We know this. But what do we do about it? Pat and Tad dig into the problem with naming this dumb sport and come to an elegant solution. They also talk Thanksgiving, younger family members who play college ultimate, and answer a backlog of listener questions including a Cornell drive-by, a spiking conundrum, and whether beach worlds tryouts are an acceptable excuse for missing college regionals. Plus, a TTF that completely derails the entire show.

Natties 2 Natties Nov 12, 2021

Time is moving quickly these days, and just as fall begins to give way to winter, club Nationals is bumped out of the headlines by the upcoming, special pandemic vintage of college Nationals. Pat and Tad congratulate some of the surprise college Nationals qualifiers, and try to determine exactly how much this fall Nationals “counts,” and for whom?
Plus, some theorizing about the true value of ESPN in the ultimate ecosystem, a strange Halloween, and a unified theory of Cornell.

Sin The Fields: Nationals Special Oct 21, 2021

Pat and Tad welcome STF All Star Kristen Pojunis back onto the program to talk about the upcoming Club Nationals and launch a new segment, "Things to do in San Diego, if you're an a******." You won't want to miss it, especially if you're an a******. You know who you are.

The Post-Regionals Rollercoaster of Emotion Oct 01, 2021

Another Regionals come and gone, another chance for Pat and Tad to stare into the abyss and see if this time it stares back. They catalogue a few of the notable results from the first weekend of Regionals, neg people who actually made Nationals, and try to find some meaning in all of this. Also, the Sprout “wet disc puller” identifies himself, and the guys talk about upcoming fall college alumni tournaments.

Sectionals for All Sep 17, 2021

Fall is in the air as club Sectionals makes its triumphant return to the calendar. Pat and Tad appreciate a retro, "everyone has to do it," Sectionals and look back at their first ever Sectionals experiences. Important questions get asked: is club Sectionals the purest version of the sport? What is an appropriate amount to freak out about losing on a bad call? And who holds the moral high ground in the classic Sectionals showdown of bad bid-earning real club team vs. good team of series-only ringers?

Accidentally Unionizing Club Ultimate Sep 03, 2021

Pat and Tad peel back the onion on one of ultimate's little known "what ifs," the time in 2012 when the elite tier of the men's club division almost left USAU for a NexGen league. How did it happen, what shady cabal was deciding the sport's future, and what impacts did accidentally unionizing elite club teams have on the club division today? Those tears you hear aren't from the onion, they are tears of righteous anger over the injustices of the TCT.
Turning to the present, the guys reflect on a relatively quaint Mars tournament from the past weekend and welcome back a fan favorite to explore all the possibilities that betting on the AUDL with Draft Kings provides.

Tryhard Interlopers Aug 13, 2021

Pat reports back from a whirlwind Wildwood/Ow My Knee tournament doubleheader that featured triumph, failure, dubious marriage planning, and ultimately the way of nature asserting its dominance. The guys also discuss how to settle jersey number disputes, the U.S. Open's scheduling elitism, and which single drink has the greatest potential to heal this broken world.

Wildwood is Back Jul 30, 2021

Pat and Tad return to where it all started with their annual Wildwood episode. As they gear up for a weekend that no one's body is in any way ready for, they break down some important questions: is warming up for a beach tournament lame? What is the drink of the Wildwood going to be this year? And most importantly, what is the best team name?
An exciting new sponsor joins the team this week, the guys celebrate the show's sixth birthday, and T/T/F somehow avoids the beach altogether.

Fight Schlubs Jul 16, 2021

STF is back, as Pat and Tad examine the rumors swirling around a fight during a Roughnecks-Cascades game and discuss ultimate's history of pretending that fights don't happen. They also talk about the ideal weeknight to play summer league, an out-there idea to make disc golf more like ultimate, and give a salute to everyone both playing and being forced to miss Masters Nationals.

Sin The Fields: Ultimate is Back, and We’re All Getting Hurt Jun 25, 2021

It’s a wild time right now, with league starting up, club tryouts coming to a head, pickup going full steam, and mostly all of it being played by people whose bodies aren’t quite ready.
As ultimate comes back to a wider community that might not be as ready to play as they think, Pat and Tad try to reconcile the joy of playing with the oncoming injury crisis.

Sin The Fields: Til Death Do Us Jun 11, 2021

After a week off, STF is back with hard hitting updates on the Pittsburgh Summer League Draft, the thirsty jokers of Co Cup, and how to perfect the ideal cut off T. It’s all a prelude to the main event - breaking down the ultimate player’s scheduling nightmare: Tournaments v Weddings.

Sin The Fields: Pickup Is Back May 21, 2021

Pat and Tad are getting ready to re-enter the world of pickup as the rest of ultimate comes back to life. They have a few questions, comments, and concerns for everyone getting back out onto the field, mostly involving dudes from New Jersey making up for lost time when it comes to big timing people. All that, plus some talk about whether the AUDL matters, what going back to bars is like, and the confusing history of chimp fighting.

Sin The Fields: Doctor's Orders May 07, 2021

STF welcomes back to the program Dr. David Geier to answer all of your burning questions about return to play injury prevention, sketchy supplements, and the medical virtue of tequila on rocks.

The guys also talk about how to boost your section's size bid numbers, what the ideal alumni tournament would be like, and answer other listener questions in a long overdue #askSTF segment.

Sin The Fields: This Day In Esoteric Ultimate History Apr 23, 2021

STF welcomes podcasting guru and PoNY partisan Jody Avirgan back to the program to unveil a new segment: This Day In Esoteric Ultimate History. On the 5th anniversary of MLU commissioner Jeff Snader tweeting a picture of his shoes at the airport, the crew dives into how these pictures explain the rise and fall of the MLU, and what we can learn about the history and future of semi-pro ultimate as a result.
It's a guest packed show this week, as Scotti D and Pockets from Ultiworld's new podcast Laying It Out stop by the show to talk about their college ultimate focused show, talk about playing for a club team whose name got blacklisted by USAU, and shame Pat and Tad for being old as fuck.
All that, plus a TTF featuring the European Super League and a child who straight up sucks.

Sin The Fields: A Summer League Unlike Any Other Apr 09, 2021

As the return of ultimate appears imminent, STF turns toward summer league. To get an edge, they welcome former NFL player and current Pittsburgh sports media guru Dorin Dickerson to the program, and pitch him on baggage-ing with Tad this summer. His answer was genuinely surprising.
Dorin talks about his experience as a pro athlete, predicts how some top ultimate players might measure up with NFL pros, and lays down a special challenge to a member of the ultimate community.
All that plus some talk about the Richmond Cup, best ever league draft picks, and TTF.

Sin The Fields: Club Season Time Machine Mar 26, 2021

USAU has a plan for the club season: Make it 2009 again by science or magic. Join STF as they go back to a pre-Triple Crown Tour era. No rankings, no requirements, no spirit! Is this truly the way god intended the sport to be played? And with Masters Nationals now bid-only, what lengths is Tad willing to go to in order to lock up a bid?
STF also welcomes Felix Shardlow to the program, giving the Englishman a chance to defend himself and the Hex after some recent slander on the program.
All that, plus mascot drama and the perils of meeting new people post-vaccination in an impassioned TTF.

Sin The Fields: Worst Tournaments Ever Mar 12, 2021

After receiving a mountain of responses, Pat and Tad sift through the worst ever tournament experiences from listeners and give their own personal bottom three. If you're nostalgic for ultimate despite horrible weather, incompetent TDs, and weird disqualification scandals, this is the show for you.

On the week that would have seen Pat and Tad convalescing after Nocturnal Decisions instead sees the STF guys get into the hottest not-so-new thing in ultimate: The Hex Offense. Is it the way of the future or just some trumped up European hipster bullshit? Pat and Tad look to both sides of the Atlantic for answers, and weigh in themselves. All that plus deciding the stakes of the ten year bet, introducing a new member of the STF family, and bringing some heat on T/T/F.

Sin The Fields: Eurotrash Feb 12, 2021

It’s an intercontinental pod crossover spectacular as STF welcomes Ravi and Liam from Eurozone to the program. They discuss the differences between European and American party tournaments, and give recommendations for tournaments that post-COVID American ultimate players should check out.
All that, plus a very special Eurocentric T/T/F.

Sin The Fields: A Requiem for the Metro East Jan 22, 2021

It's an all Metro East show this week as Pat and Tad peel back the layers on one of the defining questions of their lives: Is there a method to the madness of the Metro East? To get to the bottom of this, they bring in two heavy hitter guests from the annals of Metro East lore: coach Bryan Jones and the Metro East's lone Callahan winner Lindsey Goldsmith-Markey. There may be no bottom to the Metro East, but if there is, this is the group to find it. There is all that plus a 10 year bet, some dad content, and an all Metro East TTF.

Sin The Fields: The STF Holiday Party Spectacular Dec 31, 2020

They also discuss the distressing state of online ultimate culture and react to the breaking vaccine news.

Sin The Fields: Thanksinning Nov 26, 2020

It’s like the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Special, but for the worst Thanksgiving ever.

The perfect accompaniment for eating your frozen TV dinner alone on Thursday!

Sin The Fields: The Georgia/Pennsylvania Alliance Nov 13, 2020

The election is over and STF has the scoop live from the ground in Pennsylvania and Georgia.

Pat and Tad put their own spin on a skills contest, before bringing Frank Sarbones back on the show to talk about what Club Nationals was like in 1994. All of that plus beer elitism, the frisbee to frat pipeline, and some Staten Island Ferry talk. Just feel that briny air!

Sin The Fields: The Ones That Got Away Oct 09, 2020

We’ve all had them. Ghosts from our old dreams, unicorns roaming the grassy fields of what could have been, avatars of different lives we could have lived. This week Pat and Tad look back at the ones that got away - the best ultimate players from their past who didn't stick with this dumb sport. It's a weird one.
All that plus STF tackles the tricky subject of dying at the fields, spends too much time talking about The Godfather, and addresses the latest conflict in the Ultimate/Disc Golf culture war.

Sin The Fields: Fall Tournaments, "Toxic Twitter", Canadian Teams Sep 25, 2020

The summer of 2020 is finally over. Fall may not be much better, but at least we made it. With autumn in the air, the STF guys look at the magic of fall college tournaments and all of the important lessons one can learn from unsanctioned play. Fall isn't just tournament parties and going X/Y, it's also when Canadian teams come down over the border and pillage bids at Sectionals and Regionals. Seriously, what is up with that?
Later, Tad gives insight into his diplomatic summit with Brodie and the role "Toxic Ultimate Twitter" has in the culture.

Sin The Fields: Tales of Postseasons Past Sep 18, 2020

Tad is on vacation this week, but as everyone starts to feel the ghost pangs of a lost postseason, STF offers a look back at some sectionals and regionals of the past with a compilation of the best tales of winning and losing (mostly losing. Just lots and lots of soul wrenching losing) in the postseason that the show has covered over the past five years.

Sin The Fields: Masters Nationals, Semester without Ultimate Sep 04, 2020

Sin The Fields: Why is Brodie Scared of Playing Tad at Schenley? Aug 14, 2020

As some parts of the country start toying with the idea of playing ultimate again, Pat and Tad talk about what a return to play should feel like. How much can you change the rules of the game and have it still be worth playing?
Tad reports on his continued dalliances with the world of disc golf, and the guys mull over theories on why Brodie refuses to take him on at Schenley. Is it cowardice? Something worse?
All this plus a story from Uzbekistan, a braggadocious X-Ray tech, and a T/T/F we can all get on board with.

Sin The Fields: BIPOC Highlight Reel, The First Ever Wildwood Jul 31, 2020

It’s a somber tone for the fifth anniversary episode of Sin The Fields, because when there isn’t a Wildwood did the year even happen?
Things cheer up with a set of incredible guests. First, Max Charles and Lili Gu come by to talk about the massive BIPOC highlight reel to be released next week and delve into the details of how these things get made and how they hope this will help the ultimate community rise to the current moment.
Then the guys welcome a very special guest: mid-Atlantic ultimate legend Frank Sarbones, who was at the first ever Wildwood 28 years ago. Time earned wisdom not to be missed.

Sin The Fields: Is Disc Golf Good? Jul 17, 2020

The madness of a long, hot summer without ultimate is really setting in, as Pat and Tad ponder whether not having tournaments to play this year is an opportunity for personal growth, or like being forsaken by an uncaring god. Maybe both?
The guys take stock of everyone’s chosen ultimate methadone, Disc Golf. Does it scratch the itch for ultimate die hards? Also, Pat commits to eating a lot of eggs for a good cause and weirdo Redskins name defenders get lit up in T/T/F.

Sin The Fields: Summer League Viking Funeral Jun 26, 2020

To commemorate the loss of the 2020 summer league season, the STF guys wind back the clock and reminisce on some of their best and worst summer league experiences.

Sin The Fields: Our First Club Seasons Jun 12, 2020

With the club regular season officially canceled, the STF guys look back on their first-ever club seasons. Did they suck? Have they learned anything? Why did they do it in the first place?
This weekend would have been Poultry Days, so in memoriam the show runs back Mags Colvett's epic report from last year's P-Days. Must listen material, even a year later. It's not all looking backwards, though, as the guys celebrate the return of ultimate to New Zealand and roll out the week's TTF.

Sin The Fields: Missing Nationals, Summer Madness, Live Stream Revisited May 29, 2020

Pat and Tad had to spend a Memorial Day Weekend at home for the first time in about six years and quite frankly they aren't having it. They revisit some of their favorite memories from college Nationals past, and after a lot of long winding digressions, settle on what their favorite college Nationals was.
The guys go over some listener messages, have plenty of candidates for T/T/F, and start a new "COVID Progress" segment , celebrating a country that is progressive in more ways than one.

Sin The Fields: Summer Tournament Stages of Grief, Eligibility Questions, 6/12/18/24 Revisited May 15, 2020

Wildwouldn't you take a 6th year? Pat and Tad catch up on some of the recent COVID related developments in ultimate as USAU offers an unprecedented sixth year of eligibility to some college students and Wildwood is... happening? What could go wrong with either!
All the cool kids are doing the 6/12/18/24 challenge while in isolation so Pat fields a few questions on it from his experience with the challenge back in October. The guys muse on what an STF All Star Tour would actually look like, and the winner of the PUL Jersey Auction sends in his own T/T/F.

Sin The Fields: Episode #100 [Pt. 2] May 01, 2020

It took over four years, multiple instances of bodily harm, and at least one irate parent threatening to fight them, but Sin The Fields gets to episode 100. Pat and Tad pull out all the stops literally and figuratively in this deluxe sized two part extravaganza. Looking back on the history of the show Pat and Tad's sins of the past are revisited, promises are made, secrets are revealed, shame is given and taken in equal measure, and maybe, just maybe, a deeper truth emerges.
