Weâre making fetch a thing! On this episode, Jackie and Mark go deep into the Air Bud franchise and watch Seventh Inning Fetch, a movie thatâs plot has more holes than a slice of Swiss cheese. And yet, Fetch has it all: dog-napping mad scientists, a clever raccoon sidekick, a junior high baseball metaverse, and a cast of adorable pups who never met a sport they couldnât master. Plus, did the movie predict the 2002 World Series winner?
