Cubs Cards Cast

Dan and John spar in wake of Cubs solid start and Cardinals sputtering out of the gate. John even makes up a narrative so he can rub in that his team won the World Series last year. The hosts look ahead to interesting games for both teams over the Easter weekend.

Dan and John kick around highlights from the season opening showdown series in St. Louis where the Cubs lost the first game but came back to win the next two. Both hosts generally liked what they saw from their respective teams.

Although the 2016 is over, John reminds Dan of what happened last year and Dan responds with reminding John of the last 100 years. Nonetheless, all those things are meaningless as the 2017 season begins on national television in St. Louis as the Cubs take on the Cardinals.

Dan and John wrap up the 2016 season with a review of the 2016 World Series and a look ahead to next year. John is understandably ecstatic about the Cubs world championship and Dan is looking forward to 2017. 

John is doing a solo podcast this afternoon hours away from a monumental game 7 World Series showdown between the Cubs and Indians. He previews the game and tells about an ESPN interview involving his family and what a victory would mean to them.

John does a solo podcast where he describes the Cubs first NL pennant since 1945 and previews the World Series ahead against the AL champs, the Cleveland Indians.

Dan and John talk about whether the Cubs will wrap up the NL pennant or succumb again to the dreaded curse of the Billy Goat. John is confident his team is headed to the World Series and a matchup against the Cleveland Indians. Also, more discussion of Jason Heyward's hitting mechanics.

Dan and John preview the NLCS with the Dodgers, review the recently concluded NLDS with SF and John gives Cubs' fans 5 reasons to be confident. Meanwhile, Dan attempts to solve the Jason Heyward hitting problem.

Dan and Cubs fan John talk about the Cubs upcoming NLDS series against the suddenly rejuvenated San Francisco Giants, who played the Mets in the Wild Card game. Can the Cubs live up to all the hype? Perhaps not surprisingly, the co-hosts have very different predictions on who will advance to the NLCS.

Dan and John talk about the last three games of the season as the Cardinals fight for their playoff life. The Cards are down one game for the last Wild Card spot as they host the Pirates for three games.
