With Mike away for one more week, Nat and Dan have the utter pleasure of welcoming Luke Moore of The Football Ramble to the show - a man who is not only a hirsuit legend, he leant his nous at the very dawn of 'Carnage to help get us on t'interweb in the first place. Luke may be a god when it comes to the premier league but the guys take it upon themselves to sort him out with some real teams to support...

In other news: Peyton's final choices have been narrowed down to Denver, Tennessee, Arizona and Miami; back in Indy, the Colts continue their firesale: they re-sign Reggie Wayne, but release everyone else – Jeff Saturday, Dallas Clark and Joe Addai. Garcon was later picked up by Washington in a waaaayyy too expensive deal; Calvin Johnson has re-signed with the Lions – a $132m eight year deal that makes him the NFL’s highest paid player; Sid the Kid is back AGAIN. Or he isn’t. Who knows? He is expected to play tonight against the New York Rangers for the first time since his brief return in December; the Bruins have slumped to three losses in a row and the Canadiens are bottom of the East. Nothing more to say about that...; so let’s talk about the New York Knicks! Mike D Antoni got the chop after the team lost their sixth straight, slipping back out of playoff contention; Chicago lead the East, OKC the West, but Milwaukee and the Lakers are this week’s forms teams; Steve Cohen is a hedge funder who may be buying the LA Dodgers and if he does, Tony La Russa will be running them; Check out the We Are the Marlins theme tune which we've posted on our Facebook Fan Page; corrections and clarifications; the Bodeans Mailbag; Mike's last letter from NZ and much, much more....

Nat and Dan are sportsmen to the roots of their boots, they want everyone to get involved. In that spirit, with Mike getting through his last few days as antipodean and sending his penultimate postcard, they get the frankly brilliant Tom Bell to join them to play in Camden. Not like that. Well, don't think so...

In other news: Peyton Manning is no longer an Indianapolis Colt, becoming one of the most celebrated free agents of all time in a tearful press conference with Jim Irsay; the Colts are set to clear the decks, and release Saturday, Wayne and Garcon and be the big spenders at free agency; ‘Bountygate’ grips the NFL - a controversial programme run by the Saints to reward players with pitiful amounts for injuring opposition players is 'revealed' by the NFL; New York lead the East from Boston, but damn, the Penguins are hot again – 6 wins on the bounce and with Evgeni Malkin on fire and on course for his best season ever; n the East, the playoff race is tight as ever – Buffalo are seemingly back from the dead and Winnipeg are fifteen games away from their first trip to the post season since 1996 (although they have not played a full season since 1996); Brian Burke news – this week he launched the ‘You Can Play’ campaign, aimed at promoting tolerance for LGBT athletes, a campaign kick started by his deceased son Brendan – an initiative arguably created to possibly annoy Don Cherry; Linsanity is officially over – he’s no longer the most talked about point guard in the NBA after Deron Williams hit a career high 57 in the Nets win over Charlotte; corrections and clarifications; your questions in the Bodeans Mailbag; more news about Americarnage Live; more game fun from Dan and much, much more...

With Mike away just a little while longer the remaining 'Carnage gang are going a bit feral and crazy. Ok, crazier, revealing personal habits and foibles. In an attempt to keep them in line it's double-producer day with sports producer extraordinaire Phil Spooner in the house to provide firm guidance.

In other news: Nat knows Montell Jordan stuff REALLY well; the NBA All Star game has happened in Orlando! The West triumphed 152-149 but no-one played any D; Durant hit 36; Kobe hit 27, surpassing Michael Jordan as the all time leading All Star point scorer; in the NHL the trade deadline is toast. It was quiet with the biggest trade involving a non-trade; as Dan predicted on the show last week – Rick Nash stays in Columbus, partly because none of the big play off teams really wanted him; a bad season is now considerably worse for the Blue Jackets after GM Scott Howson told the press that the Columbus captian wanted a trade and that they weren’t going to let him go, throwing the poor bastard under the bus; Hines Ward has been cut by the Steelers after 14 seasons; Braylon Edwards could be back to the Jets; Rumour has it that a team “you would never have thought of” are talking to the Rams about their second pick… Corrections and Clarifications, your questions in the Bodeans Mailbag, more film talk, another message from Mike on the far side of the world and much, much more...

Nat and Dan like nothing better than predicting the outcome of things: sports, films, fights between strangers. With Mike still checking in from the far side of the world the guys have taken the groundbreaking decision of inviting Marek 'Americarnage' Larwood on to help them out with their Oscar picks...

In other news: Linsanity is over! Sort of! On Friday the Knicks lost their first game since the phenomenon began; then came the real test – Lin and Mello on the court together for the first time; in other news the Heat are hot – they lead the NBA and have won 7 straight; oh, and remember about what Mayweather said about black players in the NBA not getting credit. Kevin Durant got 51 and Russel Westbrook got 40 in an overtime win against Denver; in the NHL the Rangers are pulling away at the top of the East; while the Devils are pulling themselves into contention they’re now 8-1-1 in their last ten; the results of the NHLPA poll are in – some results are predictable – Zdeno Chara has the hardest shot, and Pavel Datsyuk won in several categor5ies (hardest to take the puck from; smartest; hardest to play against); but Sidney Crosby suffered from Yao Ming syndrome – picking up votes in categories he hasn’t even competed in in a year; the NFL Combine happened, things were learnt; Baseball is close - pitchers & Catchers from across the majors have reported - which explains Mike's extended absence; Harry the producer gets draconian; films get discussed; listener questions in the Bodeans Mailbag and much, much more...
