- The Boys Get Drafted - ft. Austin O'Connor & Mark Bechtold
Hey, you're back for more Basement Bar! I hope you like mild microphone echoes and the background noise of a loving grandma playing with a very loud and energetic baby upstairs. I welcome a dastardly duo of dudes to dive into some devious debates:
- -What has it been like to live with the fellas in the great city of Chicago?
- -If KeHE is so darn great of a company, then why are both going to school so hard to escape it?
- How did Mark's Celtics overcome Jayson Tatum's corniness to win the NBA Finals?
- Why does Austin hate Pickleball and old people so much?
- Who would make a better president: Joe Biden or Aegon Targaryen?
- Who will DRAFT the Best Moments in History???
(Recorded July 9th, 2024)
1 hr 38 min - Inaugural Episode - ft. Kelly Nichol
Welcome to the Basement Bar! We kick off the podcast with my fiancée/roommate/baby mama: Kelly Nichol. Kelly and I take a break from parenting a 1-year-old to talk about tons of interesting topics:
- -What has it been like for Kelly becoming a mom, moving to the suburbs, and changing jobs?
- -How has Fantasy Baseball been going, and why am I just so much better than her?
- -Who will prove more controversial in Chicago sports: Angel Reese or Caleb Williams?
- -How will Season 2 of House of the Dragon be if we don't remember anything from Season 1?
- -How have video games progressed since we were kids, and what have been some of our all-time favorites?

About Basement Bar
From the publisher's feed
Come on down to Sabs' Basement Bar: a cozy little corner of suburbia where the celebrity guests are friends and family, and the fridge is always stocked with the good stuff. The baby is asleep (for…
now), and Sabs is ready to chat about some fun topics:
- -What makes tonight's guest interesting? What are they up to?
- -What's new in the world of sports? (especially Chicago sports, Sabs' college teams, and whoever else we are shamelessly rooting for lately)
- -What are some of the (totally fun and not controversial) headlines in the news, and what's keeping us entertained lately?
- -What do YOU, the listener, want to talk about?
- -What competition does Sabs want to challenge his guest to?
Join us as we create a podcast time capsule, so that the older versions of ourselves can answer the questions: "What were we up to back then?", "How much have we changed?", and "Just how much was Sabs willing to annoy his loved ones in order to pursue this hobby?"
