We're back from hiatus to discuss the big trade. Then (at 8:00), from September 2025, we talk with Liz Callaway, Mets fan, Broadway star, and recording star, about what it’s like to sing the National Anthem at Citi Field, and more.

From August 2025, we talk with Mets fan Mike Turner from Survivor 42, who tells us what it's like to be on a reality show and lose all contact with the Mets. We also discuss which Met would do well on Survivor and which Met would be voted out first.

From March 2025, we talk to Matthew Silverman, co-author of Art Shamsky's New Book, "Mets Stories I Only Tell My Friends".

We have current events, ten predictions for the Mets' off-season, and Jeff has a Brilliant Idea (with some choice words for Jane Leavy) (15:30). Join us! #Mets #LGM

  • Getting better and better

    I’ve been listening since the very first episode and have never missed one. Greg and Jeff started out great and continue to get better. I subscribe to a lot of Mets podcasts, and this is the only one I listen to regularly. It is head and shoulders above the others. You can tell these guys bleed blue and orange, and they are the kind of fans to whom I can relate.

  • The Best

    Hands down my very favorite Mets podcast.

    The best compliment I can give is, if I were sitting next to these guys in a diner & they were talking Mets like this, I’d keep gettin coffee refills & stay just to listen.

Back In Town: Art Shamsky's New Book
Q: How has Art taken the sad news of losing former teammates?
It has been rough for him and has affected him deeply, especially with recent losses among his close friends from the team.
Back In Town: Art Shamsky's New Book
Q: How did you become the co-author of this book?
I worked with Art's agent years ago, and when there was an opportunity for a new book, I was brought in to help write it.
Back In Town: Mike Turner, Survivor 42
Q: Which current Mets would do well on Survivor?
I think Lindor would do well, because he has that demeanor where he's always, even when he's not happy, except for the other day when he misplayed the ball, he doesn't show emotion.
Back In Town: Mike Turner, Survivor 42
Q: Did you think about the Mets in 1969, 1986 to take a break from the game, at least mentally?
The truth is, when I was out there, I gave no thought to anything but the game.
Back in the New York Groove
Q: What's your vision as the Mets historian for a proper celebration of the 86 Mets in 2026?
The Mets should have a 40th anniversary celebration that honors the players and their achievements, similar to the 1969 team's celebration.
