Why Yes, We're Friends

Brendon and Ronnie talk about a couple of lists for baseball's best, fast food special menu items, and their favorite baseball broadcasters. Along the way, the fellas marvel at how amazing the Stanley Cup Playoffs have been and wonder aloud why a criss-cut french fry hasn't been called a hashtag. Brendon invented the Taco Whopper and recalls the time Gary Thorne called an Orioles game like a golf announcer. Ronnie is reassured about a questionable trip he once made to Subway and does impressions of Vin Scully and Charley Steiner. (Oh, and are those your drums?)

Brendon and Ronnie are at the crossroads of "Mostly Sporty" and "Where Anything Goes" by talking about episodes of the The Simpsons that feature sports! Along the way, the fellas spend some time thinking of what Ted Cruz was like in college, reveal that MLB may be spying on you, and talk about what one hand clapping sounds like. Brendon remembers Jimmy the Greek and stands firm that only winners get Italian Ice. Ronnie sings Homer's hunger strike song and spoils a near-50-year-old movie.

In an episode where they only talked pro wrestling, of course Brendon and Ronnie spent the lead-up talking about it too. Brendon mentions that he likes LA Knight as the new Slim Jim spokesperson (Yeah!) and how he had a World Wildlife Fund panda sticker before it was cool. Ronnie excitedly watched several of the Top 50 WrestleMania Matches on YouTube and explains the origins of Jey Uso's signature "Yeet!"

Brendon and Ronnie are excited for WrestleMania 41. They go through a handful of matches on the card and pair them with classic matches from past Showcases of the Immortals. The fellas focus on the physical storytelling that happens in the ring and the soap opera drama that surround each match. Along the way, Brendon and Ronnie go deep with some of their favorite past matches, look at the odds up and down the WrestleMania card, and recall the time that the Macho Man might have lost the match, but he won something more important. His woman!

Brendon and Ronnie, in their most sports radio episode yet, talk through a small variety of subjects. In the first segment, the fellas talk about the rise of Tommy John surgeries in baseball, with Brendon providing a lot of his experience coaching young players. In the second segment, the two talk about the upcoming playoffs for the NHL and NBA, and how they can be improved in most American sports. Brendon reminds us of the time when Bronson Arroyo rocked cornrows and suggests that hockey and basketball players switch playing surfaces for fun. Ronnie wants more trophies all around the sports world and mishears Brendon when he says, "Team Moms."

Brendon and Ronnie are excited -- Baseball is back! The fellas are passing time talking about the National Pastime. Along the way, they talk about what a Little League Opening Day looks like, pick drink orders for this season's newly hired managers, and talk about the best at-home stadium experiences for watching both the Giants and Dodgers. Brendon is teaching his son the curse of watching baseball too closely, and grosses everyone out with Terry Francona's favorite dugout combo: chewing tobacco and gum. Ronnie wonders what happened to the Angels since they won their last World Series, and hates knowing that Jose Altuve spent a few months living in his hometown.
