Everything's 5x4

This week, Steve discusses just how important Tim Anderson is to the White Sox (as well as RISP issues and a soft upcoming schedule- as well as wading into the MLB playoff race), the middle grade book Dinosaur Boy, the Chicago Bulls & Florida Panthers off-season moves, Fulham not being Fulhamish (and Venezia FC being kind of Fulhamish), re-watching Schitt's Creek and the comfort food of Modern Family. As always, Keep everything 5x4 and Enjoy (or don't). 

This week on the podcast: a bit of international baseball and the Field of Dreams game, a beer from a brewery in each of South Florida's counties, reviewing John Green's the Anthropocene Reviewed,  the UEFA Super Cup & Chicago House's first league match and the Walking Dead comes back from the dead.  As always enjoy (or don't) and keep everything 5x4. 

Another exclusively baseball & soccer episode:  White Sox big trade deadline moves, the Marlins quietly amassing a fierce starting rotation, USMNT in the Gold Cup and an instant classic match between the USWNT and the Netherlands at the Olympics.  Enjoy (or don't) and keep everything 2 x 12 and 5 x 4. 

First episode of the new format; 4 minutes apiece on baseball (why Ohtani & Vlad Jr. are worth the hype and a memorable Liam Hendriks All-star appearance),  beer (Nebraska Brunette & Mad Tree Happy Amber), books (the works of Tiffany Jackson), soccer (Red Stars own goals and Venezia's new American players) and TV (one of my favorite Futurama episodes and some thoughts on the Emmy nominations).  As always, Enjoy (or don't) and Keep everything 5x4. 

Steve uses the random number generator one last time and discusses Florida Panthers moves, Marcus Rashford being exceptional off the field, being overwhelmed by soccer options, why Hofbrauhaus Wolters makes probably the best pilsner he's ever had and revisiting Tim Kasher's Game of Monogamy.  As always, keep everything 5x4 and Enjoy (or don't).  

This week on the podcast- a shout-out to Carl Nassib, beers (one local and one from Utah), the mess that is the Olympics, re-visiting the Norwegian film Reprise 15 years later and trying to avoid being Twitter's main character. As always, enjoy (or don't) and Keep everything 5x4. 

In this baseball & soccer spin-off episode- Steve discusses the MLB All-star starters (and fan voting), players' varying skill sets, Negro League stats as well as the American's dilemma regarding Euro 2020 viewing, Himmarshee FC memberships and soccer streaming wars fatigue.  As always enjoy (or don't).  

The random number generator has Steve talking about stouts, the Handmaid's Tale, Futurama, Thor Ragnarok, the Tiktok Backyardigans trend and how people are overly harsh on "the kids" and Leon Goretzka's pro-LGBT rights statement in a hostile environment. As always enjoy (or don't) and keep everything 5x4. 

On this episode, the random number generator has Steve talking about US national sports teams, Jawbreaker's polarizing (and underrated) album Dear You, a good brewery in Ocala (Hiatus), revisiting Hedwig and the Angry Inch and comfort TV shows (good and not so good).  As always, Enjoy (or don't) and keep everything 5x4. 

This week, the Random number generator has Steve discussing more Futurama and Shrill, sports-viewing fatigue, a biography that shows how LGBT rights in sports haven't progressed enough in the past 40 years, the important words and actions behind Black is Beautiful stout and the US National Baseball team and Olympic qualifying. As always, enjoy (or don't) and keep everything 5x4.
