Leading Off

Hi. We hope this episode finds you well – in good health and good spirits.

The “will they or won’t they” of baseball is getting getting worse than Sam and Dianne. For the younger crowd, I meant Jim and Pam. For a younger crowd than that, we’re too unhip to relate. Use of the word “unhip” was a major clue.

Hurry back, baseball. We miss you.

Blowing the Save

Most podcasts try to end on a high note – the perfect coda to a quality program. That’s just not our style. Each week, we’ll end on a weak note, blowing the save with an item that didn’t quite fit into the episode, or something they simply need to get off their chests. It’s our version of taking the ball and pulling a Kevin Gregg.
