    Episode 114 - The End

    This is it.  The end of The Most Basic Cable Podcast.  Sometimes goodbyes are sad, but not this one.  Court and CVH are looking towards the future and bigger and better things for their listeners.  They are launching a new podcast venture.  Salute Your Sports can be found at saluteyoursports.net, on Twitter as @SaluteYourPod, and is available for download on both iTunes and the Google Play store.  Please join them!  


    They couldn’t leave without one more run with the old TMBC flow.  This week they are talking the NCAA tournament, Lonzo & LaVar Ball, and the Raiders making the jump to Las Vegas.

    Episode 113 - The Fall Sports Vortex

    We’ve got the World Series! We’ve got NFL week 8! We’ve got the start of the NBA Season!  Throw in some NCAA Football too!  Court and CVH are coming out in the midst of the Fall Sports Vortex.  They’re checking in on the first 5 games of the World Series and Terry Francona’s gum chewing habits, the current college football landscape and the Heisman frontrunners, NFL Week 8 (maybe pro football is getting fun again?), and the first week of the NBA season including Russ and LeBron gunning for the Triple Double season.

    Episode 112 - Hit The Ice

    Court and CVH are bringing you their NHL Season Preview this week.  But first, there is some other business to take care of.  Producer JC is back this week as lead off with an MLB Playoffs discussion and then some quick hits on NCAA and NFL Football.  They wrap the show up with their discussion of the upcoming NHL season.  The Oilers have lots of buzz as Connor McDavid dons the Captain’s C, the Penguins’ title defense has taken an early season hit with Crosby’s recent concussion diagnosis, and the Tampa Bay Lightning look poised to bring home the Cup after near misses in the last two Playoffs.

    Episode 111 - Baseball Gone Wild Card

    Episode 111 - Baseball Gone Wild Card

    The Most Basic Cable is going real minimal this week.  No producer, two topics.  Court and CVH are baseball fans again as the one-and-done Wild Card format leads to two incredible baseball games as the Blue Jays treat us to a walk-off blast and MBL Playoff assassin Madison Bumgarner does his thing as the Giants take down the Mets.  From baseball they hop over to NFL Week 5 as they pick against the spread and take an NFL temperature check at the quarter pole of the season.  Spoiler Alert: The NFL is more unpredictable than ever.

    Episode 110 - And A Rookie QB Shall Lead Them

    Episode 110 - And A Rookie QB Shall Lead Them

    CVH and Court are talking loads of football this week.  The NFL has two exciting rookie QB’s, a ton of parity, and some coaches ready to get canned.  College Football has been brilliant this year and its only getting better.  This weekend features three Top-10 matchups, led by a battle of the two most electric Quarterbacks in the country when Louisville and Clemson clash on Saturday night.  CVH gives us his World Cup of Hockey update and Court, CVH, and a mic’d up Producer JC imagine a bar fight between the teams of captains leading their teams into the Ryder Cup this weekend.

    Episode 109 - All The Quarterbacks

    Episode 109 - All The Quarterbacks

    Football..football as far as the eye can see….  This week’s The Most Basic Cable is football centric as CVH and Court dive into Week 3 of College Football and Week 2 of the NFL.  Early returns show that college football is “way more fun” and “worth watching”, whereas NFL football can be “kind of a drag” and is mostly “just a bunch of flags and injuries”.  From football your hosts and Producer JC move on to Hoosiers 30th anniversary and their favorite sports movies.  Finally, Court, who must’ve lost a bet or something, lets CVH give his World Cup of Hockey update.

I'm all in

I'm not a podcast gal, but my husband urged me to listen and after episode 12(which was amazing) I've been a faithful weekly listener. Excited to see what's next. NBA to TV shows to the random topics that will surely entertain. Court and Chris keep up the great work!

Sports/TV talk with wit

CVH and Court are two guys who love their sports, movies and TV. With overt sports homerism, Detroit sports fans can commiserate about our hapless Lions while being filled in about the rest of the league, and that's just Football. NBA, NHL and the occasional baseball talk (who cares!), peppered with movie and tv show talk make these 2 my favorite Pod to listen to. Check em out!
