  • Boonie can’t resist making it about him

    I love this podcast but I can’t get over how Boone always has to bring the storyline back to him. Most anecdotes are interesting, but it very often kills the mojo of the conversation. The guest shares something cool but instead of asking a follow up question to take the point deeper, he steers it back to himself adding how that story relates to his career. Just wish he’d ask the follow up question to the guest so it goes deeper, but still love the podcast.

  • Jim Day Interview

    I’ve always wondered what happened to Bret Boone. Well I was glad to catch Jim Day’s interview on Saturday during one of the innings. I was glad to hear of his Podcast he has and subscribed to it. Really enjoyed when both Bret and Aaron played for the Reds. They both brought a lot of energy and excitement to the team. Course now Bob Boone was a little before my time. A lot of baseball history with the Boone family. Their one of six third generation MLB families. Look forward to listening to Bret... more

  • This podcast is great.

    Except for Rich Herrera. He’s unbearable and it’s an instant skip for every “Turning Two” episode they make. He non-stop interrupts Bret, brings nothing constructive to any conversation, and he sounds like he’s out of breathe and sweating after every sentence. Love the pod but wish they’d can the Turning Two one.

[FULL EPISODE] How To Pitch In The Postseason With 19 Year MLB Veteran Al Leiter
Q: So good pitching happens to be the top 25, 30 starters in the game and I'm being generous.
Right, that's right. You have to take your game up because you're not facing the fours and fives, you're facing ones, twos and threes, no matter if you make that starting rotation.
