Great news! We clicked record this week!We’re quite chatty this episode - Nikki reviews injury updates, Kelly runs down the all-star rosters and our predictions, and Ian asks us if we’ve ever been on a team like the Columbus Fury. It turns out our feelings about Columbus and Orlando on Monday may have changed after Tuesday’s match..! Ian also tells a tale of a voicemail from the San Diego Mojo. We almost weren’t going to keep that story in the final edit because it was just us gabbing and Nikki almost suffocated from laughing so hard but… we are entertainers.Let us know what you think about All-Star rosters and the match! We’ll catch ya next week, we’re on a roll with this whole recording thing!Check out the Daily Grid on the Voli app!

Our Score Corner aka Scorner is Ian's weekly staple on the podcast, and the reason this is our only post this week is because: it finally happened. We got on zoom and talked about volleyball for almost two hours and... no one clicked record.We are hearing this is a rite of passage, and we're grateful to have made 55 episodes without committing this faux pas. Anyways, that lost episode is gone into the ether. Enjoy the MLV week 10 scorner, and wish us luck for next week!

This week on Court Captains, we get to talking about good ol’ LOVBuh, breaking down the possible mascots for their Nebraska team. We’re back to our regular scheduled programming of breaking down this weeks’ matches, including our exciting trip to Indianapolis. Indy is still on top and it seems like they might be unstoppable! Listen in and you might finally get the answer to the question “Is Omaha ok?”.Check out the Content, including video replays and highlights, on the Voli app!

Kelly is BACK and we’re back on video! Halfway through season 3, how ya feelin?This week we learned about a brand new, first-ever, MLV Commish. We talk through our reactions and pick apart the PR quote, and then we talk injury updates, latest transactions, and give Kelly the headlines from the last week. We discuss Omaha’s illness implications and what we think could get them back into the win column, as well as Indy’s feel-good vibes taking over the league. We’re hoping Dallas can keep it together but acknowledge the OH-heavy offense could be at longevity risk, and imagine Orlando’s up-and-down performances might be giving you fans some heart attacks.Let’s see what happens in the second half of season! See you in Indy this Sunday?!?!?!Check out the Content, including video replays and highlights, on the Voli app!

Audio episode for yall this week - Kelly is out of town, so you’ve got Nikki and Ian’s reactions to recent transactions, news from the league (who’s heading to Dallas for playoffs?!), and match analysis.We get into Orlando’s shaky fundamentals, Omaha’s streak season, and answer a listener question about Grand Rapids and what’s going on over there. Ian wonders how players can improve at this level of their career, and then we collectively wonder who has Samsung televisions.Back to video next week (probably) as well as back to Kelly (definitely)!Check out the Content, including video replays and highlights, on the Voli app!

Okay, time to talk about the fun little trade. We talk about why we actually think it was pretty good for all parties involved (much to the disagreement of other online entities), and why it's not surprising for Cathy George to be down to give away a first round pick.And, for the first time ever - VIDEO REVIEW! Nikki goes in-depth with stats and scenarios to figure out why Morgan Hentz may have not been having a great experience over at the Omaha Supernovas.Then, overall league updates, more injury speculation, and match review. A lot of sweeps this week, Omaha goes down two more matches, Dallas does some impressive stuff, and Atlanta gets swept by Hentz’s new Rise team.Let us know what you think of the video segment and if you want more or less of that in the future!

Sorry for the delay on this one! A lot of chatter about non-match activity this week, so strap in for some takes.First off, have you guys heard of the New York Times? Their Business department wrote a hacky article about pro volleyball and we talk about it for 20 minutes! We discuss a few match reactions from Week 5, and then go into our overachievers and underachievers from the league so far. We also speculate on some trades, but mostly ask really politely for someone to leak us the salary numbers because we simply cannot speculate without mathematical backing. Sorry!Speaking of trades, we recorded this before the Fun Little Trade that occurred on Friday. Tune in next week for our thoughts there!You can still make your MLV fantasy team over on the Voli app!

Lot of volleyball to talk about this week - Indy keeps picking up wins, Dallas has an unexpectedly long road trip, and Omaha is back in their groove.You get Ian+Nikki only for 20ish minutes of this, sorry for the technical difficulties from Kelly’s end! We talk transactions news (mostly setter dramaaaa), speculate on passing stats contributing to winning, and once again call for a sneaky (player consented) trade a la Giannis (RIP Kelly’s knowledge of all sports but volleyball).Hope you’re ready to lock in for week 5! We are already losing track!You can still make your MLV fantasy team over on the Voli app!

We have returned from sunny San Diego and are freezing again, but that’s show biz.First we talk about a couple of notable transactions from the last week - yes, we heard Maddie Waak went to LOVB, no we did not record this after that news. Most of our commentary still stands!Then, we talk week 3 matches - one we caught live, some YouTube reviews, some stats reviews. Orlando with two losses, Omaha and Grand Rapids with big away wins, and no one is undefeated anymore. And Dallas in the top spot????? We love to see it.Nikki and Ian also have a conversation about The Attendance Situation and why we think people should maybe stop talking about it :)  Respectfully!!!!!We had so much fun at the Mojo game; thanks so much to everyone who came up and said hi!! We love your zoo and your seals.You can still make your MLV fantasy team over on the Voli app!

Week two review for youuuuuu!But first, we talk through general MLV updates, including reviewing the big media advisory announcement from the drama queen Omaha Supernovas (said with love!) and our musings about why no one’s referencing Bolt6 anymore.Additionally, we had no choice, but simply had to, finally, give our thoughts on the “LOVB and MLV should merge” discourse. You are free to offer your commentary on the topic, but our opinion is correct (lol jk it’s an open convo!)Then: MLV week two. Omaha takes two 5-set losses, San Diego finally beats Atlanta, and Nikki’s high on Indy. Kelly also explains why tandem attacks probably don’t make sense for this level per Nikki’s curiosity.Don’t forget to hit us up if you’re at this Friday’s Mojo game!You can still make your MLV fantasy team over on the Voli app!
