This week we start off with a quick update on the College World Series, the MLB London Series, the international soccer tournaments (FIFA Women's World Cup, CONCACAF Gold Cup, Copa America) and the F1 Austrian Grand Prix. Then we dive into our main discussion of Competitive Eating,  in honor of the upcoming Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest on July 4th. We explain how MLE (Major League Eating) works and cover some of the competitive eating heavyweights (pun intended) and marvel at the potential capacity of the human stomach.
