Spring is in the air which means the Chicago Sports Spectacular returns to Rosemont, IL and so do Jack and Jeremy! The guys take in the semi-annual card show and snag some autographs. Hear about a couple fun exchanges with Kevin Mitchell and Denny McLain as well as some run-ins with card shop owners, social media personalities, and friends! This is all if Jack and Jeremy can get through the front door, which wasn't easy!

This week the guys are running down the WBC rosters, searching for some long-forgotten major leaguers - this was almost as fun as the non-roster invitee lists! Some great former players hanging around to rep their countries or on the coaching staffs!

Jack and Jeremy run down each team's coaching staffs and set their sights on graphing targets for the upcoming season. But to kick things off, the guys talk about the clip of Shia LaBeouf ripping Mike Piazza for not signing autographs - a topic the Rain Delay boys can definitely relate to!

This week, Jack and Jeremy catch up on the recent White Sox gaffes of misspelled nameplates and mistaken switch hitters. The guys also talk about the Phillies/Nick Castellanos divorce, Topps Series 1 baseball cards, and the March Chicago Sports Spectacular! This is the most beautiful podcast these ears have ever heard...c'mon Dad...

The time has come for pitchers, catchers, and bums to report to Spring Training - Jack and Jeremy run down this year's non-roster invitees! Also, the RDT guys headed out to the DePaul/St. John's game in search of Rick Pitino for graphing purposes!

Jack and Jeremy are fresh off SoxFest Live - the Chicago White Sox fan fest to bring you all the exciting details! The guys are joined by friend of show Chris at the Ramova Theater in Bridgeport to take in the festivities, trying to learn the ropes of this unconventional "fan fest" and attempt to eek out some autographs in the process. The guys have a long overdue conversation with Len Kasper, almost fall asleep during the Chris Getz segment, and roast Omogrosso! Plus, Jeremy talks a big game when attempting to get Shane Smith's autograph and Jack gets lost in the shuffle trying to get to Miguel Vargas. Tune in for all the antics!

It’s that time of year for the Worst of Fame 2026 voting! Jack and Jeremy look at the retired players from 2020 and see who stumbled their way into the WOF. Some obvious names cement their spot, some surprise candidates emerge, and some guys painfully just miss the cut! Tune in to find out who! The guys also preview their upcoming excusion to the White Sox fest. And Jeremy pays tribute to Terry Boers at the top of the show.

The mega-sized Cubs Convention recap is here!!! While the guys wait in line for their first autographs, Jeremy strikes a deal that will change the course of the weekend for the podcast! The RDT guys knock out two GIANT white whales at the con and scoop up a bunch more in the process. The guys run into several pod regulars and some new oddballs! There's lots of unexpected line movements that cost the guys a lot of hardship. And Jeremy has a run-in with the same a-hole security guard who cost people Kyle Tucker's autograph last year! Sit back, relax, and strap it down for this deluxe edition of Rain Delay Theater!

The 2026 Cubs Convention is upon us and Jeremy and Jack rundown the full agenda. The guys talk about autograph targets and what weirdos they expect to see from the Extended Cubs Universe. The guys also reflect upon 300 episodes of the podcast and the worst night in Wisconsin sports fans lives as the Cubs sign Alex Bregman and the Bears come from behind for the 2nd time vs. the Packers!
