    The 2020 MLB season is just about in the books (probably) and what a season it was, TBS Nation! Perfect time for us to drop our 2020 season preview joined by Ryan McEachern of the McEachern Podcast Network. Jimmy and Matt also talk about the Marlins, COVID and first pitch jealousies.

    TBS 120: MLB Crossing: No (Season On The) Horizon

    Trust us, we'd prefer (ok, *Matt* would prefer) to talk AC:NH all day but Jimmy did a lot of work to breakdown the current state of negotiations between the players and the owners/league about the 2020 season. So we dive deep into the bad faith and absurdity that prevails in American pro ball right now!

    TBS 119: Jimmy and Me and Swole Daddy Makes Three

    The orchestra's yawning and they're dimming the lights down dear listeners, so it can only mean one thing- it's the last The Last Dance. We talk about a show having nothing to do with baseball that only one of has seen, and we also break down the mascots of the KBO because there isn't much else to cover just now. Enjoy! 

    Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about those things we said above. Also tweet us @thatbbshow with your MJ red-assed baseball equivalent and make your pitch to Matt for which KBO team to follow, quaranteens! (Rates and reviews on Apple Podcasts also go down smooth).

    Remember a time when you could go to a ballgame without having to rub peanuts in your eyes and pretzels on your face? Sean Hannity remembers, and he's got some tips and tricks for a post-'rona sporting world! We talk about what that world would look like, what it looks like now, and Matt gets away with not addressing the Red Sox cheating! 

    Listen to this episode if you want to hear us try not to talk about how everything is wack. @ThatBBShow and leave an Apple Podcasts review, wastelanders!

    TBS 113: Life During Cival Wartime

    Thanks for tuning into this episode but do keep it at a low volume- we are a month into the Umprising and it's pretty dicey out there. Keep your heads down while we cover (some of) the World Series, Trump's visit to Nationals Park, the dumb and bad Astros front office, and postseason manager moves.

    TBS 112: My Stupid Team: Rockies w/Geoff Renstrom!

    This episode was recorded in Denver with our good friend fellow Rox fan Geoff, so we decided what better time to turn Jimmy's weekly grousing into another MST installment.

    TBS 110: Rawkin Cheah Saves
