Go! My Favorite Sports Team
Hosted by Tyler Scheid
A sports-literate host attempts to explain the week in sports to his famous YouTuber friend, who knows absolutely nothing about the subject.
This is a comedy show that uses sports as a vehicle for the hosts' comedic dynamic. Tyler Scheid introduces topics like the NBA Finals, FIFA controversies, or niche athletic events, which Mark Fischbach (Markiplier) then systematically misunderstands or deconstructs with absurd mathematical tangents and wild hypotheses. While they cover real news, the conversation prioritizes entertainment, personal anecdotes, and recurring game segments over serious sports analysis.
“Its core dynamic—the knowledgeable fan versus the complete novice—is the show's defining feature. Unlike podcasts that assume a baseline of audience knowledge, GMFST thrives on one host's ignorance, turning educational moments into comedic breakdowns and making the world of sports accessible from square one.”
Who hosts this show
Go! My Favorite Sports Team is a comedy podcast co-hosted by Tyler Scheid, a sports enthusiast with a Master's degree in Sport Administration, and Mark Fischbach, the massively popular YouTuber known as Markiplier. The show's central premise is Tyler's attempt to explain sports news and concepts to Mark, who has a self-professed limited knowledge of the topic. The podcast launched in February 2022 and is part of a larger content ecosystem involving the two creators, who are long-time friends and collaborators.

- 03Lego my Logo
Showcases the recurring logo quiz segment, with Mark making up absurd team names, and their tendency to veer into non-sports topics like a major Lego controversy.
