  • It's Messi's Time, Will Ferrell, and Kelley O'Hara is Back! | 16
    2022/12/19

    In the final show of Back of the Net with Will Arnett, the team attempt to summarize what will no doubt go down as one of the greatest World Cup finals in the tournament's history.


    Argentina, inspired by Ángel Di María, took a 2-0 lead into halftime, after a lackluster France failed to register a single shot on target. Then, out of nowhere, Kylian Mbappé dragged France back into the fold with 2 goals in 97 seconds. More late drama followed in extra time, as Messi put the Argentines in front... only for Mbappe to equalize in the 118th minute. A penalty shootout followed... and the rest is history. Finally, a World Cup for Messi and a place alongside Pele and Maradona in the list of the all-time greats.


    In a jam-packed show, 2-time World Cup champion Kelley O'Hara rejoins the team to analyze all the action, and the one and only Will Ferrell joins to give us his take on what has been a crazy World Cup from start to finish!


    We also have a live visit from 'beer guy' Gus Hully, all your silly football stories in 'Nutmegged' and we crown the victor in the final 'Sean Selects' of the series.


    Thank you to everyone who has listened to and enjoyed this series. It's been one hell of a ride!

    2022/12/15

    What a final we have in store! In today's second semi-final, France advanced to take on Argentina in Sunday's big decider. Will Kylian Mbappe scupper Lionel Messi's fairytale international career ending?

    In today's show, we look back at the France v Morocco game. The plucky Atlas Lions from North Africa scared the current World Champions numerous times but ultimately just couldn't find the crucial goal to trouble Les Bleus. Also, comedian Rhys Darby joins us on the show to talk about the World Cup and whether his character Murray from 'Flight of the Conchords' would make a good soccer manager.

    Plus, Marshawn gets a new country to support, and we have another wild prediction from the maverick that is Sean Hayes.
