*Apologies for any audio issues this episode*

It's over 100 degrees outside but Sam and Matt aren't cooling down about the Cubs as the team are now losers of eight straight games. A lot to discuss in this episode -- why the current team is so bad, roster moves without transparency, lack of pitching depth, impact of injuries, doubting the plan moving forward, and more. 

Episode 90 of Anything Goes! The Cubs faced a big challenge this past week with 9 games in 7 days against their two biggest rivals, but they were competitive for nearly the entire stretch. Many positive signs with this team as we get a glimpse of the future in the present. Plus: Previewing the next slate of games, and Sam's stories (good ones!) from Wrigley on Saturday. 

Sam and Matt break down the Cubs/White Sox series from a big picture perspective. White Sox are supposed to be winning and the Cubs are retooling, but is it actually playing out that way on the field? 

The big league Cubs may not be playing well, but there are many positives going on in the minor leagues. Sam and Matt go over updates on propsects on how valuable that is moving forward. Plus: The White Sox need to start winning and a turning point for the entire season might now be in front of them. 

Sam and Matt recap how the Cubs performed this past week and look ahead to the next set of games, which are all favorable. Plus: Sam reviews his weekend trip to Las Vegas, and much more. 

Sam and Matt record their latest episode DURING the first two innings of Cubs/Padres on Monday night. This is a must listen as the duo discusses the troubles for the Northsiders, what to watch for the rest of the season, and much more. 

The Cubs finished this week exactly how Sam and Matt thought: 2-4 combined against the Braves and Brewers and 9-13 on the season as matchups with the White Sox and Dodgers are looming. They break it all down plus the usual laughs and more. 

Sam and Matt break down all things Cubs as the North Siders lose two out of three to the Rays and three out of four to the Pirates. The Cubs are struggling in close games, so what should we expect amid a tough schedule ahead? Plus: Continuing to evaluate the radio and TV products for the Cubs, White Sox with seven straight losses, and much more. 

The Cubs split the series with the Rockies and finish 3-3 on the road trip. Sam and Matt break it all down like only they can. Good signs from the offense, solid bullpen performances, questionable starting pitching, up and down defense and baserunning, odd decision making by David Ross, and more. Note: This episode was recorded *before* the Cubs posted their win over the Rockies on Sunday.
