Week Six kickoff as the Krakens (3-2) take on the first-place Orbiting Death (4-1) at the "Black Hole" stadium on Orbital Station One. The Krakens must win to stay in the playoff hunt, but is starting QB Donald Pine still on the take? Quentin is watching, waiting for his chance.
PODCAST NOVEL PROMOS IN THIS EPISODE
I think your feed into iTunes is broken. Nothing after episode 19 is showing up there.
Whoring for the Man…
Great episode, possibly in my top 4 episodes. Ham sandwich….HA… friggn’ classic…
Keep ‘em coming Sigler!!!
Sweet, I stayed up late waiting for this and I have to say great ep. Add the ranting and raving in 19.5 a day or two ago and I have to say its been a great week! Poor ol Pine… will he experience re-entry with, or without the suit?
I JUST LOVE IT!! This episode just takes the cake for outrageously AWESOME action. Sigler u sick bastard go on like that and we’ll probably build u a shrine…
EA Sports, eh? Hmmm …
I almost wet myself during “The Ham Sandwich Incident”! I burst out laughing at work, and no one knew why … Not sure if I should tell them what I am listening to, I work at a printing company, and we creat and print bulletins for Catholic Churches!
Great episode, Mr. Sigler … can’t wait for next week!!
Sigler, get the iTunes subscription to work again!!! Kick some ass in the Apple Store man. Want my weekly fix.
I knew you could write stuff that’d make me cheer, but I never expected to be LMAF in the middle of a Scott Sigler podcast.
scott just started listening to earthcore again cause you only manage to get your episodes out sometimes, and i listened to Ancestor in 2 days keep it up and cant wait till earthcore 2
dude, i just finished listening to infection and ancestor while waiting fot the rookie 20, they fucking rock man, keep doing what your doing man and soon the world will be sigler
later
You know you want me fayad. Pine knows it. Put some mustard on me and enjoy me. Muhaha ha ha ha you know you want me!
I love how Mitch took him all seriously and got sort of defensive too. That was great. Football + Drugs + Violence = Happy Junkes.
Nice Ep.
Wasnt that game on the Ace? DId i hear right at the begining saying that they where on Orbital Station 2, I thought this game was on the Ace?
Scott! When QBs primal instincts came out I thought for sure we were going to get a taste of Purest Nation nursery rhymes in action! The crowd chants of “BS” were classic after that.
Two days ’til Sacred Cow the Movie! Can it get any better? I’m starting to feel like Don Pine…that grass sure is black. Look how black that grass is! Man, that was some good stuff!
My wife and kids are looking at me like I’m crazy. They can’t figure out why I’m laughing so much.
A ham sandiwch with Texas mustard!!!
yeah, scott said the deuce at the start instead of the ace and nemkoff called the ionath krakens the ionic krackens, but what do we expect by now right 
great ep. I fully expect Pine to get whacked next ep.
“I don’t like ham OR MUSTARD!”

Fantastic mention in the NYT today – congratulations to you and your gay little red-heeled sneakers!!!!
Shit. I have been one of the smug ones who found you late. Very recently. I blew through Ancestor, went back and grabbed Earthcore and Infection. I listened to them in about 5 days. Yep - all of the Sigler bloodbath in 5 days, including the short stories. (My favorite:”chicken scissors”.) So I blithly start listening to The Rookie and get to episode 18 and start to realize that it isn’t complete. IT ISN’T COMPLETE! Damn you, Sigler… Damn you to hell! Now I have to wait for my fix with the rest of these dirty junkies. HURRY UP or I shall go off on you like Barnes did on his offensive line in episode 17. Move it, Sigler. BTW - I LOVE Fayed’s accent. It sounds like the CA Govenator. I would lobby for a “Don’t Whack Pine” shirt, but I fear I’m too late.

Hold on a second here. The second-string QB poisoned the first-string QB in the middle of the game to get himself playing time? This boy’s gonna have some crazy ’splainin to do if anyone finds out about this. Anyone, that is, beyond Pine and the source for the dope, both of whom will figure it out pretty quickly.
“But he was tanking! He admitted it to me!”
“Uhh, yeah, but you’re an over-ambitious squirt of a second-stringer who thinks the way to the top is by poisoning his teammate. Sure, we believe you.”
