  • Not good

    What is left to say about Carton?

    McMonigle could be good but really needs to grow a thicker skin. Try not to get so upset when people don’t agree with you. Believe it or not, you don’t have all the answers. You are a radio producer/sports host.

    If I have to hear one more “Renewal by Anderson” ad mid-segment, I’m going to lose my mind! Otherwise I love all shows on the FAN!

  • I HATE THIS CLOWN SHOW!

    I wish Apple podcasts would stop suggesting this show!! I never want to hear it because I've heard enough of Craig Cartoon and Fatty McBarnacle is a Yankee shill and represents everything that's hatable about Yankee fans--obnoxious, dismissive, trolly, arrogant.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Philly Superfan and Content Creator Rossi Takes Joins the Show
Q: Tell me a little bit of your background and where you're from in relation to Philadelphia.
Rossi explains she's from Lancaster, Pennsylvania, but grew up connected to Philadelphia sports through college on the Main Line and a strong local fan culture, which helped shape her content identity.
Craig and Cmac Talk with Jason From AA Mint Cards
Q: How does grading influence a card's value and resale prospects?
Grading can significantly boost value; a PSA 10 generally commands higher prices than a raw card, while a PSA 9 can still be valuable but often less than a perfect grade, which affects decisions on whether to pay for grading.
Craig and Cmac Talk with Jason From AA Mint Cards
Q: What exactly is a 'box rip' and what should a first-time buyer look for?
A box rip is when you open a repack or box to reveal a potentially valuable card; key indicators include whether the card is a rookies' card, if the product glimmers, has color variations, or is numbered—these cues help gauge whether a big pull is possible.
NBA Champion Jose Alvarado Joins the Show
Q: Let me ask you a question. It's funny you brought up Jeremy Lin, who had the greatest three week run any dudes ever had that wasn't a blue chip prospect, right?
There was three weeks where Lin showed he could be elite at the NBA level, proving the significance of confidence and opportunity, and fans saw a glimpse of what he could do against top competitors; it was a standout stretch that highlighted how special moments can redefine a player's career.
Todd Zeile BLASTS Mets Front Office After Carlos Mendoza Fired
Q: What led to the perception that Mendoza didn't have full control of the clubhouse?
The hosts and Zeile discuss how injuries, roster moves, and ownership expectations created a situation where Mendoza's ability to enforce accountability was undermined by the fragility of the roster and the shifting dynamics between management and coaching.
