Rain Delay Theater

Rain Delay Theater is back at Wrigley and this time no rain! Jack and Jeremy are treated to a rare-these-days exciting Cubs victory! But the real highlights take place when the guys decide to head over to the Rockies bus after the game. We're treated to a case of mistaken identity for one of the Rockies' top pitchers, Jeremy getting snubbed by the one Rockies player whose card he brought, and a chance encounter with a Cubs player on the walk back to the car! The aftermath of which resulted in one of the funniest podcast moments to date, as Jack and Jeremy celebrate with two overly excited galoots, er, fans who also received an autograph of the aforementioned mystery Cubs player. Tune in to find out all the details of these absurd encounters...PLEASE, PLEASE, PRETTY PLEEEEEZE!!!

This week, Jack and Jeremy take a look at some of MLB's Top prospects and worst case scenario comps for them - it gets pretty ugly, sorry Adley Rutschman! The guys also talk about Topps losing the MLB license for baseball cards, a late recap of the Field of Dreams game, plus a recap of Jeremy's White Sox Scout Seat experience and his trip to St. Louis and Cardinal country.

Into each season, some rain must fall…but that doesn’t mean Jack and Jeremy still can’t find a whole episode’s worth of material. The guys attempted to see the Cubs vs. Brewers at Wrigley Field but Mother Nature had other plans. Luckily, the guys witness one of the funnier moments in podcast history as they hung out by the Brewers bus as the team departed the stadium - a cacophony of chaos ensued. Before that, Jack and Jeremy witness a funny-talkin hot dog vendor, a Cubs employee who danced like no one was watching, and a Wrigley Field/this podcast “celebrity” sighting. Tune into this soggy but laugh-filled episode!

This week, Jack and Jeremy return to give you their All-Boring Team! The guys field a full starting lineup and manager of the most boring people playing in the league - the players might be boring, but the episode ain't! We also hear Jeremy's thoughts of the Cubs sell-off and get a recap of a White Sox game that Jack attended solo. Jeremy also give a recap of the National Sports Card Convention and his run-in with a reality tv star! Check it out!

This week, the guys welcome musician/artist/filmmaker/skater/Jeremy's former roommate, Rich Salamander, to talk about some random baseball topics. We hear about Jeremy and Rich's shared experiences with the 2005 White Sox and the 2016 Cubs as well as a home run derby moment gone awry. The gang also discusses Major League, Field of Dreams, and Good Will Hunting, in addition to other random old baseball guys and major moments in history.

Be sure to check out Rich's work at richsalamander.com. @richsalamander and @doyourboardreport on Instagram.

Also, listen to Rich's band (with Jeremy) on Soundcloud @englishsofthearts!

The guys are back from their All-Star break to bring you a recap of a straight doubleheader between the White Sox and the Twins. It was truly a tale of two games which featured Jack and Jeremy and a foul ball in game 1 and a near fight stemming from a loudly spoken comment by one of the guys in game 2. Tune in to see if the guys got a foul ball and who of the two said the fateful comment and if that person got their ass kicked. You’ll also hear tales of people trying to walk through the metal detector with their pockets jammed full of crap, Jack and Jeremy being accosted by over-excited White Sox fans after a Gavin Sheets walk off homer, and a lot of musician lookalike sightings! Jack also kicks off the show with a nice baseball yarn and supplies us with another fun impersonation. Don’t miss a minute of this week’s ep!

With the All-Star Game fast-approaching this year, Jack and Jeremy take it upon themselves to scrub the All-Star rosters from the past 10 years to determine the worst All-Stars for each league year-to-year. Also this week: Jeremy sinks into deeper Cubs depression, Jake Marisnick is a greasy dude, and the guys take a shot at Joe West just because.

Milwaukee is the place to be this week as the guys travel back to Miller Park/Am Fam Field to see the Cubs in a rare road game vs. the Brewers. The guys get to see a pretty good game...for 7 and a half innings... The heated rivalry between these two teams sends Jack and Jeremy on a roller coaster of emotions and we hear the blow by blow of the events. Jack describes Jeremy's wild mood swings, Jeremy rants about David Ross's management in the series, and the guys report back about a passive aggressive dad and a dude who worked at Boeing who was WAY too into himself. It's a long ep, folks, so buckle in!

Jack and Jeremy delve into the numbers this week as they review the compiled statistics from every Rain Delay Theater game they've attended for the podcast - there are some surprising heroes and zeroes seen for the pod. The guys also talk about Rick Sutcliffe and the Cubs no-hitter for Jeremy's birthday as well as an unfortunate fan who hasn't really kept up with the health of Ernie Banks. Take a listen to Rain Delay Theater by the numbers this week!

Our long national nightmare is finally over as Jack and Jeremy return to the southside of Chicago and Guaranteed Rate Field to see the White Sox take on the defending AL Champion Tampa Bay Rays! Get settled in for this massive recap episode as the guys are instantly reminded exactly what they've been missing for the last year and a half being away from the White Sox. We're treated to stories of the wacked out El ride down to the park, a group of drunken, F-bomb dropping adolescents behind Jack and Jeremy, and all the same old material on the video board. Ear piercing whistles, earnest 7th inning stretch singing, and coining of a new term "White Sox bad" are all part of this week's SUPERSIZED episode. Tune in and hang around for this one, folks!
