Baseball was as boring as mom and apple pie. That’s why we jazzed it up. Each week we debate the latest in baseball news, culture, and ride off on wild tangents. It's time for This Week in Blernsball!

    Episode 80 - The CBA has been Disbanded!

    Holy big extensions Batman! Wander Franco and Jose Berríos signed monster extensions in the two weeks since we've met last. Award season is here, which is way better than the holiday season. Predictably, Shohei took home AL MVP and Robbie Ray took home the AL Cy Young, setting him up for a big payday. The CBA is expiring in a week. What does this mean for free agency, arbitration, and the start of the new season? It's bracket time. This week we have Air Bud, Patrick Swayze, Jackie Moon, and more! Who is moving on and who is going home?

    Episode 78 - Return of the Bracket

    The season is over, Atlanta has won, so now what? The answer, dear listeners, is the bracket we've been putting off since the first wave. It's time for the greatest fictional athlete bracket! Prepare yourselves for a massive bracket where athletes from fiction face off to determine who will reign supreme. Simpsonrama Episodes of the Week: The Homer They Fall (Ben), Mother Simpson (Jacob)

    Episode 77 - Searching for Announcers

    NOTE: This episode was recorded before Game 1 of the World Series. Dodgers vs Red Sox, the Battle for Mookie's Soul! What's that, they didn't make it? Screw this World Series. Who to cheer for when there's no morally good team to cheer for? Well at least Freddie Freeman is in the World Series! The Toronto Blue Jays might be in deep trouble trying to re-sign premium players this offseason after their ownership shenanigans spilled out into public.  Watch West Wing. Just do it.

    Episode 76 - Don't Forget About Bob Dole!

    Apologies for the audio quality, the Internet Ninjas had it in for us this week! The Red Sox were this close to taking a commanding series lead, and then blew it in the ninth inning to let Houston tie the ALCS 2-2 last night. How will their pitching respond in Game 5? Will their hitting continue to be red hot as the series progresses? Atlanta was on the verge of going up 3-0 in the NLCS, but some Hollywood Heroics from Cody Bellinger and Mooky Betts brought LA back into the series. Who takes the next game? MLB made some big moves for MiLB players this week, guaranteeing free lodging for players on Minor League teams starting next season. Kudos! DC Fandome was this week, we talk all things The Batman, Flashpoint and much much more! This Week's Simpsonrama Episodes of the Week: Treehouse of Horror IX (Jacob), Treehouse of Horror VIII (Ben)

    Episode 75 - A Total Absence of TV Content

    This week, we spent so much of our time breaking down the playoffs, we completely forgot our other mission, to talk about TV! The Red Sox-Rays series was a barnburner. Congratulations Ben on his Red Sox advancing to the ALCS in dramatic fashion and sorry to the rest of us on having to watch a Red Sox-Astros ALCS. In the other ALDS, the Astros proved they're laser-focused on proving their championships aren't tainted, and beat the White Sox into submission, robbing us of the potential of a hosiery series. Over in the National League, Atlanta continued their fairytale season with a 3-1 win over Milwaukee, and the Dodgers-Giants Clash of the Titans is heading to a deciding Game 5. Also, Jim Katt, don't say racist shit.

    Episode 74 - The Kids can call you Kaiju

    It's playoff season! Perhaps most importantly, the Yankees lost! Get ready for a month of edge of your seat, exciting baseball! We try to come up with an iconic nickname for Shohei, like "The Bambino" or "Iron Horse." You'll never guess what the result is! Remember back in March how we made some predictions for what would happen this season? Remember how wrong we were? Gotcha! We're super-geniuses at predicting stuff! Either that or baseball is super predictable, one or the other. Plus, is this a Ted Lasso fancast now?

    Episode 73 - It's a Wild Wild Wild Card

    The Red Sox, Blue Jays, and Yankees are duking it out for the AL Wild Card, but there can be only one! What's that? There are two wild cards now? There can be only two! Meanwhile, in the NL, the epic collapse of the San Diego Padres seems complete, as they sit 5 GB with just 12 to play. It's time for some sports equinox talk, the epic day of all the big four at once is coming up again, as the NHL and NBA seasons look to get underway!
