After 10 years, 99 shows (and a pilot), scores of hours and more swearing than is probably legal, we mark episode 100 by crowning the Who Wins Podcast Champion of Champions.

It’s Darth Vader vs Doctor Strange. Who wins?

After shock and heartbreak in the last round, we’re down to our last four as The Joker takes on Doctor Strange and The Flash takes on Darth Vader, as they all fight to be named our Champion of Champions.

In this episode, our battle royal winners go one on one for the chance to take one step closer to greatness.

Our Quarter Finals are;

• The Grinch vs The Joker
• John Rambo vs The Flash
• Doctor Strange vs Optimus Prime
• Darth Vader vs Stitch

In this episode, Chris and Mark finish the battle royals as we edge closer to crowning the Who Wins Champion of Champions. In bracket 7 it’s Machines, while in bracket 8 it’s Monsters.
