Episode 445: The Bill Murray Big Bracket

Another Movie Role Tourney is here!  Mikey, Dave, and #TwitterlessButNotDiscordlessDrEarl have sent at least 14 movie roles to the Big Bracket (coming soon... maybe 2023?)  Characters like Indiana Jones and Uncle Buck and Iron Man and more... but now its time to add one from a comedy legend.


First up, the guys play a new (to them) game of Doug Benson's IMDb (because he is D.B.), and then they take on the best roles of the legendary Bill Murray. From Ghosbusters to Groundhog Day to Mad Dog & Glory to all the Wes Anderson films.

Match up by match up, one by one, until there is a single Best Bill Murray Role of All Time, headed to the Big Bracket. 

Plus... the real time struggle of putting together a show at the last minute as Dave doubles back and somehow makes the tournament work...

And here is how the bracket shakes out. Sort of. Just go with it.
