    Ding! Ding!

    RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot Scott open Episode 391 by previewing football season for patrons before a laugh about Scott's father-in-law hijacking the family's evening. They hit the Mariners' 100-game .500 mark, reminisce about the Big Red Machine, then shift to the World Cup, where both stayed hooked long after Team USA's exit. Mitch and Scott rave about teenage phenom Lamine Yamal, poke fun at FIFA's halftime show, preview Seahawks camp, Ryan Fox's British Open win, and Bryson DeChambeau's penalty. Ray Roberts and Mitch discuss Seattle's new ownership, why the defending Super Bowl champs still seem overlooked, and what the Seahawks gained—and lost—this offseason. Roberts also shares hilarious training camp stories, from sneaking home to sleep in his own bed to finally meeting childhood hero Ed "Too Tall" Jones, the player who inspired him to wear No. 72. Mitch, Joe Doyle, and Brady Farkas break down another uneven Mariners series as Seattle reaches the 100-game mark at 50-50. They argue Dan Wilson has become an unfair scapegoat for a flawed roster, praise Cole Young's continued rise, and discuss Julio Rodríguez's return, Colt Emerson's progress, and looming roster decisions. Mitch welcomes three beat reporters who know the Mariners' top draft picks better than anyone. Sam Sklar breaks down first-round slugger Ace Reese, Koki Riley explains why LSU outfielder Jake Brown could become a second-round steal, and Scott Springer profiles Cincinnati right-hander Nathan Taylor, whose bulldog mentality and dominant slider made him one of the draft's best values. Together, they provide an inside look at Seattle's newest wave of talent and what fans can expect from each prospect.   GUESTS   Ray Roberts | Former Seahawks offensive lineman and Seahawks Radio Network Analyst Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Sam Skylar | Mississippi State beat reporter, Clarion Ledger Koki Riley | LSU beat reporter, The Daily Advertiser and USA Today Scott Springer | Cincinnati Bearcats beat reporter, The Enquirer   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | World Cup Wrap, British Open Chaos & Birthday Trivia 26:378 | Ray Roberts; Training Camp Memories, New Seahawks Ownership & Barry Sanders Stories 55:12 | Mariners No-Table; Mariners Tread Water as Trade Deadline Decisions Loom 1:13:03 | Sam Skylar, Koki Riley, Scott Springer [Beat Reporters]; Inside the Mariners' Top Three Draft Picks 1:39:34 | Other Stuff: Josh Kerr breaks the 27-year-old mile record with a blistering 3:42, Roger Bannister's four-minute mile legacy, Alex Rodriguez's factually disastrous Justin Verlander interview during the All-Star Game, Mike Tyson's viral ESPYs moment after learning Shohei Ohtani is a man, Baron Davis sued by his sister over an alleged real estate fraud, suspended Cardinals executive Ryan Gold denies violating the NFL gambling policy, Matt Fitzpatrick says legalized sports betting is fueling fan abuse of golfers, JPMorgan executive Lorna Tsoujini countersues after denying allegations she tried to make a coworker her "sex slave."

    9.6 Billion Going Once. 9.6 Billion Going Twice…

    RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot Scott kick off Episode 390 with an unexpected detour into horse sanctuary volunteer orientation before turning their attention to a Mariners club desperately in need of the All-Star break after another miserable road trip. They discuss Seattle's lone All-Star representative Randy Arozarena, and the struggling offense before shifting to the biggest local sports story of the week: the $9.6 billion sale of the Seahawks to the Khosla family. Mitch and Brady Farkas survey a Mariners club that limps into the All-Star break below .500 after another frustrating road trip, debating whether an 8-2 finale provides any real optimism. The conversation centers on the anticipated returns of Julio Rodríguez and Brendan Donovan, and the uncomfortable reality that Seattle's season ultimately hinges on Cal Raleigh. Fresh off attending nine matches across the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Matt "Stretch" Johnson joins Mitch for one final World Cup recap as the pair dissect the United States' disappointing 4-1 loss to Belgium. The conversation explores the goalkeeper's costly mistakes, the overall trajectory of the U.S. program heading toward 2030, and why the next World Cup in Spain, Portugal, and Morocco should feature many of the same American stars. A miserable Mariners sweep in Miami sends Mitch and Danny O'Neil down one of the show's most delightfully bizarre rabbit holes, as baseball takes a backseat to an extended discussion about uneven sideburns, proper barbershop etiquette, London's luxurious hot-towel shaves, ear-hair removal by flame, and Mitch's childhood memories of his mother singeing stray chicken hairs with a blowtorch before dinner. The conversation eventually pivots to a sobering examination of former Seahawk Chris Johnson's ALS diagnosis, prompting a thoughtful debate over football's long-term health risks.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Danny O'Neil | Host, The Dang Apostrophe Matt "Stretch" Johnson | Longtime Seattle Sports Radio Personality   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | New Owners, Old Problems, And Another Round of Birthday Trivia 27:54 | Mariners No-Table [Brady Farkas]: All-Star Break Can't Come Soon Enough 53:12 | Matt "Stretch" Johnson: The World Cup Hangover…What Comes Next? 1:16:04 | Danny O'Neil: Sideburns, Blowtorches…and Football's Uncomfortable Truth 1:36:38 | Other Stuff: Justin Verlander retirement, Ace Reese drafted by the Mariners, Ace Reese vs. Cade Anderson in college, Aaron Donald comeback rumors, Jacob Tobey fired by the Spurs, Marshawn Kneeland diagnosed with CTE, Conor McGregor injured in UFC return, Tennessee couple celebrates 80 years of marriage with weekly McDonald's breakfasts.

    Seattle: Center of the Sports Universe

    RUNDOWN Mitch and Hotshot Scott celebrate America's 250th birthday before bouncing into Mariners baseball, Seahawks training camp, and the looming U.S.–Belgium World Cup matchup. Mitch hilariously admits he's too self-conscious to watch soccer in public because he has no idea when he's actually supposed to get excited, then the pair roll through another edition of birthday trivia. After a 5-1 week that included back-to-back shutouts of Toronto, Mitch, Joe Doyle, and Brady Farkas examine a Mariners rotation that suddenly looks like one of baseball's best while debating Randy Arozarena's All-Star selection, Julio Rodríguez's concussion, and which pitchers could still earn late invitations to Philadelphia. The conversation then shifts toward the trade deadline, lineup decisions, potential bullpen upgrades, and whether Seattle can survive a difficult road trip through Miami and Tampa. With training camp just weeks away, Mitch and ESPN Seahawks insider Brady Henderson assess where the defending Super Bowl champions stand, from Devin Witherspoon's unresolved contract and the impact of offensive coordinator Brian Fleury to the competition brewing throughout the roster. After FIFA overturns Folarin Balogun's controversial red card suspension, Mitch and Matt Stretch Johnson revisit their previous conversation to explain why the ruling dramatically changes the United States' outlook against Belgium. Stretch breaks down why the matchup favors the Americans, explains the different ways to bet knockout-stage soccer, previews a potential quarterfinal showdown with Spain or Portugal, and shares why Seattle is about to host one of the biggest sporting events in the city's history.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Brady Henderson | ESPN Seahawks Insider Matt "Stretch" Johnson | Longtime Seattle Sports Radio Personality   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | America's 250th birthday, Mitch's World Cup anxiety, and another legendary birthday trivia session. 17:28 | Mariners No-Table: A five-win week eases the panic, but bigger questions await before the All-Star break. 45:12 | Brady Henderson: Why the Seahawks' biggest questions still haven't been answered. 1:09:34 | Matt "Stretch" Johnson: The U.S. catches a massive break—and suddenly a World Cup run feels real. 1:33:16 | Other Stuff: Chris Johnson ALS diagnosis and football health risks, Matt Miller fantasy football charity league investigation, LeBron James thanks the Lakers after departure, LeBron's legacy and next team speculation, Ja Morant traded to Portland, Kawhi Leonard returns to Toronto, Jaylen Brown traded to Philadelphia, Cristiano Ronaldo announces final World Cup, USA-Belgium World Cup preview, Spain vs. Portugal quarterfinal implications, Lamine Yamal's meteoric rise, Mexico fans disrupt England with fireworks outside team hotel, Calais Campbell family tragedy.

    Is Dan Wilson on Thin Ice? (Should He Be?)

    RUNDOWN Frustrated by another Mariners series loss, Mitch argues that Dan Wilson's quick hook of Emerson Hancock in Cleveland set off the bullpen dominoes that ultimately cost Seattle the game. He and Hotshot Scott debate whether the manager deserves the blame, discuss why the season isn't lost despite the club slipping under .500, and preview an episode packed with Mariners prospect talk, World Cup excitement, and another edition of Release Date trivia. The Mariners' ugly loss in Cleveland sparks a spirited debate over Dan Wilson's bullpen management, whether Emerson Hancock should have finished the sixth inning, and if Seattle is putting itself in impossible situations with its pitching decisions. Mitch, Brady, and Joe also dissect the confusing six-man rotation strategy, discuss whether Emerson Hancock belongs in the bullpen, evaluate internal reinforcements like Ryan Sloan and Patrick Wisdom, preview the upcoming Angels and Blue Jays series, and make their weekly "Out on a Limb" predictions. MLB Pipeline's Jim Callis joins Mitch to break down another loaded Mariners farm system, offering updates on Colt Emerson's development, Felin Celesten's breakout season, and why Seattle continues to boast one of baseball's deepest prospect pipelines. The conversation also dives into Kade Anderson's rapid rise, Ryan Sloan's ace potential, the upcoming MLB Draft, and how the Mariners could eventually use their prospect depth to chase a World Series. Mitch and Jason Puckett spend another episode doing what they do best—arguing over the Mariners, poking fun at each other's broadcasting habits, and turning small disagreements into entertaining debates. They also dive into Puck's upcoming trip to Spain, the Running of the Bulls, World Cup excitement, and the polarizing reaction to U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Jim Callis | Senior Writer for MLB Pipeline Jason Puckett | KJ-Aren't / Puck Drop   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Dan Wilson's bullpen decisions, the Mariners' latest collapse, World Cup fever arriving in Seattle, and another entertaining round of Release Date trivia headline the opening segment of Episode 388. 26:50 | Mariners No-Table: Dan Wilson's latest bullpen decisions, the Mariners' muddled pitching plans, growing calls for rotation changes, and another round of "Out on a Limb" predictions fuel this week's Mariners No Table discussion. 1:00:04 | Jim Callis: Callis explains why the Mariners' farm system remains among baseball's best, evaluates Kade Anderson and Ryan Sloan's futures, and previews another pivotal MLB Draft for Seattle. 1:21:52 | Jason Puckett: Mitch and Jason Puckett trade playful jabs over the Mariners, preview Puck's Spain adventure, debate the Running of the Bulls, and discuss the golf world's complicated relationship with Wyndham Clark. 1:40:16 | Other Stuff: Justin Bieber at the NHL Draft, Mitch's Justin Bieber karaoke encounter, Phil Mickelson controversy, Buffalo Bills leaving O.J.

    Right Up Scott's Alley

    RUNDOWN Mitch and Scott catch up after Scott's softball tournament weekend, debate whether a hole-in-one on an executive course should really count, and work through another round of birthday trivia featuring Pistol Pete Maravich, Clyde Drexler, Kurt Warner, Meryl Streep, Kris Kristofferson, Cyndi Lauper, and Barenaked Ladies founder Steven Page. The Mariners limp toward the halfway point battling injuries, an offense that continues to struggle against left-handed pitching, and lingering questions about the piggyback pitching experiment. Mitch, Joe, and Brady discuss Dom Canzone's emergence as an everyday player, Logan Gilbert's recent dominance, the club's ability to stay afloat despite mounting absences, and what lies ahead against Pittsburgh and Cleveland. Stretch joins Mitch to explain why this year's World Cup feels different despite being hosted in the United States, recounting three decades of World Cup adventures with his brother while breaking down Team USA's unexpected success. The conversation covers Seattle's electric atmosphere, the Americans' path through the knockout rounds, and why a potential Round of 16 match at Lumen Field could become one of the biggest sporting events in Seattle history. Bob Harig joins Mitch from Shinnecock Hills to break down Wyndham Clark's controversial victory, why golf fans have been slow to embrace him, and Scottie Scheffler's frustrating near-miss at the career Grand Slam. They also discuss Joaquin Niemann's costly penalty, Tiger Woods' uncertain future, Phil Mickelson's complicated legacy, and why Shinnecock remains one of the most polarizing U.S. Open venues in golf.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Matt Stretch Johnson | Former Sounders broadcaster and longtime World Cup traveler Bob Harig | Golf writer and author of "Tiger vs. Jack: Golf's Greatest Debate"   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Hole-in-one controversies, Birthday Trivia, and a Mariners Injury Crisis. 18:52 | Mariners No-Table: Injuries Mount as the Mariners Search for Answers. 34:39 | Matt Stretch Johnson: World Cup Fever hits Seattle as Team USA Makes a Surprising Run. 1:00:02 | Bob Harig: Wyndham Clark Silences the Haters with a Second U.S. Open Title. 1:18:46 | Other Stuff: Cade Horton dominance in Double-A, Jazz Chisholm Jr. foul ball injury, Knicks players reportedly abstaining from sex during championship run, Argentina-Algeria fan brawl in Times Square, Jacob Misiorowski's "rough" outing, Floyd Mayweather lawsuits and bad-check allegations, Shohei Ohtani welcomes second child, Arizona woman arrested after speeding to get home for Love Island.

    Kill the 6-Man Rotation, Please!

    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 War Rooms. The conversation eventually returns to Seattle, where Andrés Muñoz's struggles and the search for bullpen help dominate the discussion.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Jason Puckett | KJ-Aren't / Puck Drop   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Mitch and Danny mix baseball nostalgia, Pacific Northwest trivia, and Hall of Fame debates while exploring how sports—and the media covering them—have fundamentally changed. 18:52 | Mitch and Danny unpack the Knicks' long-awaited title, New York's outsized sports ego, and why the rest of America briefly found itself rooting for the Big Apple. 34:39 | Mariners No-Table: The Mariners limp home from a frustrating 4–6 road trip battered by injuries and bullpen concerns, as Mitch, Brady, and Joe debate roster decisions. 1:00:02 | Jason Puckett: Mitch and Puck bounce from European travel adventures and family vacation realities to the Mariners' bullpen concerns. 1:18:46 | DAR (Dang Apostrophe Rulings): DAR (Dang Apostrophe Rulings) Is it time to stop worrying about Luis Castillo's feelings and move him to the bullpen? How big a deal is Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby's gambling case, and what does it mean for the NCAA's ability to enforce rules? What makes Pat McAfee worth a reported $60+ million per year to ESPN? Does Kenneth Walker skipping the Seahawks' Super Bowl ring ceremony matter to his legacy in Seattle? If you could choose one, would you take Jacob Misiorowski or Paul Skenes given their talent, contracts, and years of team control? How do you compare Phil Mickelson's fall from grace to Tiger Woods' damaged reputation? Should Mitch Levy be embarrassed that he has absolutely no idea who Mariska Hargitay is?

    "Hey Andrés, I Came Back from Europe for This?!"

    RUNDOWN   After 16 days across London, Berlin, Paris, Rome, and Florence, Mitch returns home exhausted, overfed, broke, and surprisingly fond of Berlin. He and Hotshot Scott break down the trip, from ranking Europe's biggest cities and comparing food cultures to discussing sightseeing fatigue, Segway tours, horseback riding in Tuscany, and the realization that his sons viewed the entire vacation very differently than he did. Fresh off his European adventure, Mitch quickly pivots back to the Mariners and a pitching situation that suddenly looks very different than it did a month ago. With the piggyback experiment shelved for now, the focus turns to Bryce Miller's dominant return to form, Luis Castillo's resurgence after being challenged, and whether Seattle's six-man rotation creates more opportunities than problems. The Mariners' series loss in Detroit quickly turns into a deeper conversation about Andrés Muñoz, whose recent struggles have Brady and Joe (Mariners No-Table) debating whether Seattle can continue treating him as an automatic ninth-inning option. The trio examines bullpen management, the challenges created by the six-man rotation, potential closer alternatives, and whether the trade deadline could force Jerry Dipoto to look for outside relief help. Steve Phillips hasn't jumped off the Mariners bandwagon despite an uneven first two months. He explains why Seattle's pitching depth, second-half track record, and a weak American League still make them a legitimate World Series contender, while also addressing growing concerns about Andrés Muñoz and potential bullpen fixes before the trade deadline.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Steve Phillips | Former GM of New York Mets, MLB Network Analyst, SiriusXM host   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Mitch recaps a whirlwind European family vacation filled with unforgettable sights, culture shocks, and a chaotic front-row experience of Paris Saint-Germain's riot-filled Champions League celebration. 33:42 | The Mariners' pitching surplus is suddenly a good problem, as Bryce Miller's resurgence, Luis Castillo's rebound, and Cade Anderson's rise force Seattle to weigh rotation depth against potential trade-deadline opportunities. 45:28 | Mariners No-Table: The Mariners' bullpen concerns take center stage as Andrés Muñoz's struggles spark closer questions, but strong performances from Bryce Miller, Cole Young, and Colt Emerson help keep Seattle firmly atop the division. 1:09:42 | Steve Phillips: Steve Phillips still sees the Mariners as a legitimate World Series threat, with pitching depth, roster flexibility, and a weak American League outweighing bullpen concerns and lineup questions. 1:29:28 | Other Stuff Segment: Caitlin Clark illness during Commissioner's Cup game, Russell Wilson joining CBS, Russell Wilson Hall of Fame debate, Myles Garrett traded to Rams, Aaron Donald comeback speculation, Rams vs Seahawks offseason comparison, Nolan Teasley hired by Vikings, NFL minority hiring compensation picks, Madden NFL 27 cover featuring Caleb Williams, Brandon Roy and Garfield recruiting scandal, Eastside Catholic recruiting jokes, Nick Saban NIL criticism and congressional testimony, French Open champions Alexander Zverev and Mirra Andreeva, Magda Linette Cinderella run at Roland-Garros.

    Mitch Flees the Country

    RUNDOWN   Broadcasting from London while trying—and failing—to escape Mariners frustration, Mitch and Hotshot Scott bounce between Seattle baseball misery, European travel mishaps, London culture shock, soccer ticket disasters, and Mitch's realization that even crossing the street becomes dangerous when everything operates backward. They also hit Churchill history, Wembley dreams gone sideways, tourist adventures, and the strange reality that no amount of distance from Seattle seems capable of keeping Mariners disappointment from finding Mitch overseas. With Mitch away, Brady and Joe take an unfiltered look at a Mariners team that suddenly feels flat, frustrating, and increasingly difficult for fans to embrace. They dig into defensive problems, strikeouts, inconsistent offense, lineup decisions, clubhouse energy, and whether Seattle's identity has become too predictable and too dependent on home runs. Mitch and Puck wrestle with one of the biggest frustrations surrounding the Mariners right now: when questionable decisions happen during games, who actually owns them? The conversation centers on Dan Wilson, Jerry Dipoto, analytics influence, bullpen management, lineup choices, and whether modern baseball has created too many voices in the room. They also hit on Bryce Miller's interrupted no-hit bid, the controversial piggyback pitching approach, and the growing feeling that Seattle's biggest problem might not be talent. Mitch and Danny dive into growing frustration around the Mariners' decision-making, debating whether Dan Wilson is truly managing instinctively or operating under organizational marching orders from above. The conversation turns into a bigger argument about modern baseball philosophy, bullpen usage, lineup management, and whether Seattle is overthinking itself out of wins.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Jason Puckett | KJ-Aren'ts / Puck Drop Danny O'Neil | Host, The Dang Apostrophe   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Mitch Flees the Country, Mariners Follow Him Anyway 20:59 | Mariners No-Table: Are the Mariners Becoming Unlikable?
