Miss the World Cup? Us too, but what if we told you there was one more tournament this summer, packed with all the excitement, drama and unexpected twists you’ve grown to expect over the last 30 days? OK, and what if there was another tournament, and that one was about cups?

Writer and Director Mary May jumps right in as a guest who, by her own admission, doesn't know much about soccer but loves a good cup, as giants from the world of cups gather for a 16 round winner takes all showdown of the century culminating in an epic shocker of a final between practicality and whimsy.

The matchups start off exactly as you’d expect, the classics, cup of coffee vs cuppah tea, peanut butter cup vs cupcake, but as the tournament continues, the action devolves into abject chaos. Will Princess Buttercup from The Princess Bride have to answer to a $4 Egg Cup from QVC? What even is an Egg Cup? Anything can happen in the World O’ Cups!

Also covered: Dylan's entrance to her wedding via the Liverpool theme song, Hollywood Bowl shuttle logistics, Marin’s ongoing quest for Clark Griswold's exact Tasmanian Devil mug from Christmas Vacation, and an important PSA about backup cameras.

We know Mary. But we barely know her.

Special thanks to friend of the show, the great Spencer Watson @spencerlwatson for introducing the inaugural tournament in true World Cup final fashion.
