S6, E1: Jim Goulart (@Mass_Haas on X) joins us to talk about founding the site now known as Brewer Fanatic, his Brewer fandom as someone who's exclusively lived on the East Coast, and where the Brewers stand after the new year.

S5, E37: With Devin Williams and Willy Adames darting for (or being darted to) opposite coasts, what's next for the Brewers?
