Love the Conversation - Topic Suggestion

Great podcast. I would love to hear from Sam which ballpark(s) had the best food spread in the clubhouse during his career. Keep up the good work.

Dynamic Duo: Chris Dickerson and Paul Janish

Love this podcast, especially since the convo expanded to all things MLB. Hosted by Chris Dickerson and Paul Janish, who bring valuable insights into their respective careers with some added comic relief. Chris Dickerson, a renowned professional baseball player known for his impressive outfield skills, brings a wealth of experience and wisdom to the conversation. Joining Dickerson is Paul Janish, a former professional baseball player who made his mark as a standout infielder. Janish's presence on the podcast adds depth and knowledge with his rare wittiness and brilliantly dry sense of humor.
