Remember a time when you could go to a ballgame without having to rub peanuts in your eyes and pretzels on your face? Sean Hannity remembers, and he's got some tips and tricks for a post-'rona sporting world! We talk about what that world would look like, what it looks like now, and Matt gets away with not addressing the Red Sox cheating! 

Listen to this episode if you want to hear us try not to talk about how everything is wack. @ThatBBShow and leave an Apple Podcasts review, wastelanders! 

Feb 20, 2020

Join us in the lonely Manfred Mansion as our Dear Commish asks himself why baseball is so bad and plays with the rabbits one last time. We also talk (more) Astros, the Mets clubhouse, Nolan, and (sigh x a billion) Mookie. We're gonna get it through it, gang! 

Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about The Uncloseable Book, Tricky Hinch, Donkey Cart Double Dash, and WAR Criminals. Also baseball. @ThatBBShow and leave an Apple Podcasts review, dead CATS! 

Jan 24, 2020

One of you managers is responsible for the MURDER of baseball, and we've called you into our parlour to j'accuse you! Is that how you say it? Let us know while we discuss *heavy sigh* sign-stealing, MiLB contraction, and the curious case of Martin Miller.

Thanks for tuning into this episode but do keep it at a low volume- we are a month into the Umprising and it's pretty dicey out there.

Ah Gary, thanks for coming in. We appreciate everything you've done Gary, but it's time for you to be plugged into a weird action movie from the 90's. Make your peace as Jimmy and Matt cover pre/postseason predictions, King Felix, MadBum, coach firings and petty beefs. Also sorry we talk about dog butts so much.

This episode was recorded in Denver with our good friend fellow Rox fan Geoff, so we decided what better time to turn Jimmy's weekly grousing into another MST installment.

We just want to get out ahead of this; this episode does NOT hinge largely on re-naming a certain minor league team after a fish. Having now said that legally you can't say it does. We also talk London Series, Cookie Monster, the Mets, and a break in the Ortiz case!
