    How Will We Remember the 2024 Season?

    Bobby and Alex bookend the 2024 season with a conversation about the ways it felt unique in comparison to the seven other seasons they've covered on the podcast. Then, they talk through some of the upcoming content plans they have for this offseason, including some exciting Patreon experiments and "Main Character Month," a series that will drill down on some of our faves with single episode features about the figures who've captivated the attention of the podcast over the years.

    The Dodgers Dynasty Is Here

    Bobby and Alex gather to react to a World Series bookended with two classic games that the Dodgers ultimately dominated over the Yankees. They discuss the shocking Freddie Freeman performance, the resilience of a very injured Dodgers pitching staff, the buttons that Dave Roberts pressed to navigate all 27 outs each time they took the field, an underwhelming Yankees showing, the outlook for Los Angeles heading forward, and what the league might try to learn from their dominant season.

    Do the Yankees Have a Shot?

    Bobby asks Alex whether or not he has any other grand predictions (after predicting Freddie Freeman's huge Game 1 moment in the previous podcast). Then, they discuss the Dodgers winning Games 1 and 2 of the World Series and whether the Yankees have a chance to come back, plus the performance of Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, Juan Soto, Aaron Judge, and more. Finally, they review Rob Manfred's pre-World Series press conference, discuss the state of the Tampa Bay Rays' stadium, and react to another year of baseball's revenue increasing.

    2024 World Series True or False

    Bobby and Alex gather to preview the 2024 World Series, which is here at long last and consists of two teams that everyone is having very Normal and Measured reactions to! They do so by presenting a list statements and deciding whether they will be true or false by the end of the series. Baseball analysis is everywhere for those with eyes (ears) to see (hear) it!

    Peace Be With You (And Also Your Team)

    Bobby and Alex discuss a new zen that's come across Bobby as the Mets have ridden an adrenaline rollercoaster over the last two weeks. Then, they bounce around the various Division Series, highlighting the takeaways from the first games and whether or not any teams have changed their prospects of going deep into October, or whether the Phillies, Yankees, and Dodgers are still in pole position.

    2024 MLB Playoffs Narrative-Ball

    Bobby and Alex react to a truly mind blowing final day of the 2024 regular season that saw the New York Mets do extremely non-New York Mets things to make the cut for the postseason. Then, they fill out their postseason bracket based on the Power of the Narrative, defining what the narrative would be if each team won the World Series and determining which is the most preferable. Finally, Alex bids farewell to the A's and processes the mixed emotions he felt watching the final game at the Oakland Coliseum.

    And Bingo Was His Name (Oh!)

    Alex's return to the podcast is marked with an unprecedented Shohei Ohtani feat, some strange pitch tipping news out of High-A, a check in on the state of the playoff races, a Farhan Zaidi-McCovey Cove Dove improv re-enactment, and a frankly remarkable amount of Kevin Costner chat.

    Gambling's Fallout (feat. Bradford William Davis)

    In part two of their fictional betting scandal series, Alex and Bobby are joined by reporter and friend of the show Bradford William Davis to discuss the nature of the scandal, how MLB would handle it, and the pernicious nature of sports gambling's expansion. They use real life examples of institutional issues to draw conclusions on what MLB's plan (if any) would be for a scandal of this magnitude. Listen to part one of the gambling scandal series here.
