On the Mets side, David Wright is back...or is he? We also talk JDG's Cy Young chances, and the idea of The Free Agent Auction. Then, on the Star Wars side - an episode 9 rumor, Rebels, Resistance, we find out if Chewie eats humans and Jason tells us about his new #StarWars book, Solo: Tales From Vandor which comes out Tuesday. It's a StudioFun replica journal a la Rey's Survival Guide and Bomber Command. Meet Midnight, the bartender at the Lodge. He's got lots of tales to tell ... and some of them are even true! amzn.to/2MaQrue

A fast discussion of Ushergate, #MetsFansUnited and the Toddfather, recorded on my deck, and yeah I ate the mike a bit.

A quick zip through the Solo trailer, the new Star Wars trilogy announced, and the new Star Wars TV series (multiples?) in development. Meanwhile the Mets are super smart and one of the most active teams signing free agents.

The Jerks give their takes on this year’s Baseball Hall of Fame class (and Ric’s personal connection to one of the inductees) and the return of the XFL. Plus, with all the reboots coming to TV, the Jerks discuss which series they want rebooted, and a look at the great new Netflix series The Toys That Made Us, and a look at which toys made the Jerks! T2J – Made by toys and comics, fueled by nerd rage!

The matchup is set for Super Bowl LII, and the Jerks are not happy about it. Plus, Paul Pierce’s pettiness, and did the NFL get revenge on Bob Costas? The Jerks also discuss the (needless) return of Superman’s red trunks (underwear on the outside … yay.), the new Flashpoint directing team and gloat about yet another correct prediction by Nostra-Dumb-Ass. T2J: We don’t like to be right all the time, yet here we are!
