About this episode

Mitch and Danny discuss various sports topics, including baseball's changing dynamics and the New York Knicks' title aspirations, while also reflecting on personal travel experiences.

RUNDOWN Mitch and Danny bounce from the changing economics of podcasting to baseball's disappearing workhorse pitchers before revisiting area codes and birthday trivia. Along the way, they debate Hall of Fame cases for Wade Boggs, Mike Holmgren, Vince Carter, and Tim Lincecum—while wondering whether "The Freak" could become Cooperstown's greatest omission. Broadcasting from the middle of Knicks mania, Danny gives Mitch a firsthand look at what a title run means in New York. The pair explore why America briefly embraced the Knicks, compare New York fandom to European soccer culture, and debate whether Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs let a championship slip away. The Mariners return home from a disappointing road trip with injuries mounting and the AL West tightening. Mitch, Brady, and Joe sort through Seattle's recent slide, debate lineup and roster decisions involving Cal Raleigh, J.P. Crawford, and Cole Young, and examine bullpen concerns, Matt Brash's durability, and the future of the six-man rotation. Fresh off a 16-day European adventure, Mitch and Puck reflect on the joys and exhaustion of traveling with adult children, from Berlin and Tuscany to Rome and London's Churchill…
