  • Good episodes so far!

    I followed Xavier Scruggs during part of his career, but I didn’t realize he had this talent! He’s got a good voice and cadence for this kind of podcast. Very quality podcast production. more

  • Let it be baseball

    In a world where politics from the left and the right are shoved down our throats it’s hard to find somewhere to get away from it all. When I found a baseball podcast I was excited to learn about the player and their experiences through baseball. Within the first 30 seconds politics were brought up. No thanks. I’m pretty disappointed
