Hot stove! MLB fucking around with the baseball again. Mailbag. More baseball in this one than most offseason episodes.

We're back from our little Thanksgiving break, and we do talk a bit of baseball in this, but we also talk about twitter, other sporting events we've been to or are planning to go to, Stephen and Lauren's trips, and some good mailbag stuff.

We talk about MLB's sponsor FTX going up in flames, twitter breaking down, walkup songs, and WBC stuff. We're gonna take a break for the holiday next week so no new free episode after this one until the 30th.

Philadelphia losing big, Philly's non-Springsteen song Chicken Man, Henry Cavill, being hater, then mailbag and Lauren makes a sizzle reel video for a big free agent. Also we have an NBA update segment in the middle with Agnes (@femaieboyfriend).

Stephen takes over on this one and brings along Philadelphia dirtbags Liz Roscher and Justin Klugh to talk about HOLY SHIT THE PHILLIES ARE IN THE WORLD SERIES. It's like The McLaughlin Group for people who flick lit cigarettes at kids in Mets hats and puke on police horses. We talk shit on the Astros, Mattress Mack, and everyone who isn't loving this postseason. Also Justin found a mask of potentially demonic origin and we talk about how the Phillies just keep getting gayer and gayer.

Lauren couldn't make it so Charles Starr (@ugarles) was promoted to acting co-host for this one where we talked to Baseball Prospectus editor in chief Craig Goldstein about the postseason so far. We also said some really terrible stuff and played one of the worst games of FMK ever recorded.
