  • Fun and Well Done!

    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.

  • 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

  • Terrific

    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?
