For the Galaxy Bowl, an injured Quentin Barnes has turned over the quarterbacking reins to Becca the Wrecka Montagne, but he’ll be damned if he’ll stay off the field for what might very well be his last game ever. He has spent five years building a true team, and that’s critical, because only with a pure team effort can the Krakens defeat Don Pine and the Jupiter Jacks. Will the Krakens repeat as Galaxy Bowl champions?

Each episode of this podcast delivers chapters of the series directly to your ears, pulling you into a gritty, immersive universe where every down matters and off-field alliances can be as deadly as a blindside hit.
