This is really well produced. The soundscape is great, the guests are great. A trip down memory lane with a twist. This is Covid Gold! I hope you do the next earlier decades set like 1953 to 1973.
Great podcast. Brilliant concept
Continuing to enjoy these weekly podcasts. Invited many friends to listen. Great feedback from them too.
This is a great idea, executed very well and I love listening to Josh Lewin
This is right in my baseball wheelhouse. It is great to hear old players names and stories. Well done.
I was a skeptic but I really enjoy this podcast. It is well thought out and executed perfectly.
Lewin is a treasure
Josh Lewin brings these games to life and provides plenty of historical context for those of us who didn’t live through these teams’ first go around.
This is perfect especially while I'm waiting on baseball season. Plus there are so many options for what to do next after this bracket plays out. We can do the best teams of the dead ball era, the best of the runner ups etc etc. Strongly reccomend to any baseball fan going through withdrawal
Can’t seem to find 1978 Dodgers in your brackets.....I see ‘74, ‘77, ‘81 and ‘88......am I just getting old, blind or stupid?? Great idea..... reminds me of the computer simulation of Ali-Marciano way back in tge day! Keep up the great work!!
This is so much fun to listen to. It is a clever idea and well executed. I love Josh Lewin! The historical anecdotes are wonderful and interesting.
This podcast is exactly what Baseball is all about. Fond reminiscing about past events which often call to mind simpler times. Arguments about who was better / who would have won.
A great concept with good production values. What’s not to like?
This is great! Definitely a needed distraction now, but will be enjoyable even when real baseball comes back. Thanks Josh!!!
Love Josh and love this idea!
Perfect way to fill the void of this missing baseball season!
Well executed fun idea, as well as awesome culture sprinkled through. Best of all... it’s as close as you can get to baseball on the radio right now!
