"Is Robin a superhero?"
It was an incredible weekend for the World Cup, and it was only *slightly* ruined by replays calling offsides. Plus, there's a new caped crusader in Mexico who has the crew asking questions about the nature of Batman and Robin's relationship, and Dan is incredulous at a single analytics guy telling Bobby Marks that Jaylen Brown would be the 7th-best player on a team. Is he angry about the right thing?
Today's cast: Dan, Zaslow, Roy, Amin, Chris, Mike, and Tony.

Uh, just all of them singing it in a, in a Scottish brogue. Uh, my wife says, because they're thr- they're clearly throwing garbage cans at each other on the street, and she says to me, "Can we call the police or something?" And I'm like, "Valerie, two of the officers are on their shoulders," because [laughs] they were like, they were just partying with, with these people who just bring, uh, friendliness and drunkenness everywhere they go.
Jonathan Zaslow· Panelist1:14
Is this how they behave when they're home when they're partying, or it's like, "Hey, we're on vacation, so we're just gonna act like this"?
