I'm not a Blue Jays fan but I do enjoy smart (and funny) baseball talk, and Drew and Andrew deliver that every week. For example, their discussion of the labor issues facing baseball in episode 143 was among the best if not the best I've heard. Mostly during the season they're all up into the Jays, looking at the team and their rivals from an intelligent and analytical perspective, though one that doesn't ignore the fact that they're both fans as well. That's all good and worth listening to on its own, but what elevates the podcast is their repport. You can tell they're friends in real life (as opposed to podcast life) and they actually dig talking and joking around with one another. Overall it's a wonderful podcast and a great listen. Check them out, you won't regret it!
Great

Great podcast. Blue Jays centered, but still a lot of good knowledge on the other teams too.
