That Baseball Show

Oh boy did we ever record a really great episode for you! But Podcast Krampus struck once more in the form of a new call recorder and it is forever lost to time and space, so you get this one instead. We talk Jennry Mejia's historic lifetime ban and see where the worlds of baseball and pro wrestling intersect. 

Listen to this pod if you want to hear us talk about Podcast Enhancing Drugs, Weekend At Peyton's, Foodservice Dabbing, The Many Catchphrases of Andre the Giant, Air Bud's Secret Identity, Pete Rose v. The (Other) Big Red Machine, Blue Collar Wrestling Personas, The Demographics of Juggy Restaurants, TBS "Facts", and some very exciting news re: our pals The Knitts! Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow on Twitter and That Baseball Show on Facebook! Yes! Yes! Yes!  

Hello Nation! This podcast is late, that is to say it's later than we'd like. Also Matt's audio sounds like he was recording in a snowstorm- rest assured, it's like 50 degrees here. Apologies for both, Podcast Krampus strikes again! 

In this episode we review/geek out over the Season 3 Simpsons episode "Homer At The Bat". We cover the episode's history, the player guest stars, and why Jose Canseco is THE WORST. We also talk about our Super Beef, The Confounding Rockies, Air Bud Junkballs, and What's Worse Than Jose Canseco. Also baseball. @thatBBshow on Twitter and That Baseball Show on FB- Grampy Bowman approves!

When we committed to doing the pod weekly through the off-season, we have to admit we were worried we wouldn't have enough to talk about. Then the MLB went to court over TV contract rights and that MAKES US ANGRY. We also discuss the notion of automated strike zones and what that means for humanity's desperate struggle against our robot overlords. And Matt apologizes for his plosives- his pop filter fell off. Womp womp.

Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow on Twitter and That Baseball Show on Facebook, Robo-Sinners! 

One more pod in the can before Jimmy heads back to L.A. Thanks to UnBound for use of their dope podcasting studio! And sorry for all the baby-eating jokes, Matt promises to watch Labyrinth to get the actual ending.

On this week's abbreviated episode, Matt and Jimmy spend a lot of their precious time telling you they don't have a lot of time. Seems like someone should have told them they were wasting the time they didn't have, but meh.

Also baseball.

In this week's episode, Jimmy and Matt put their hands on a hot stove. Their moms said not to, but sometimes you just have to let the little dickens make their own mistakes, amirite? 

Listen to this pod if you want to hear us talk about Amateur Padcasting, Baseball Hanukkah, Two and A Half Pitchers, squashing beef in Boston, is Zack Greinke John Travolta or Olivia Newton-John in this analogy?, lots of other horrible analogies (we seriously feel bad), Bruce Bochy: Celestial Being, Mark Trumbo: the Nothing-man of Anyone, the uncomfortable Aroldis Chapman saga, and how Barry Bonds is like Ian McKellen. Also, baseball.
