  • Brent Gunning has to go

    Ben is amazing. I only listen to the show when Brent is off as I find him overwhelming and agitating.

    Please replace Brent with Sam McKee or another host and I will listen regularly.

Blue Jays Drop Series to Athletics with Jensen Lewis
Q: Jensen, with 15 games left, how do you evaluate the Blue Jays' chances given the current injuries and the tough stretch ahead?
Jensen stressed that while injuries have hampered the rotation, the bullpen has kept them competitive and that remaining games against strong AL teams will test whether the offense can finish drives when opportunities arise; the Jays need to maximize their depth, control the strike zone, and rely on timely hitting from key players to stay in the wild-card mix.
Blue Jays Playoff Push + The Return of Football with Herm Edwards

World Series Hangover? + Blue Jays-Guardians Preview with Pat Tabler
Q: Is it possible that the Blue Jays are just now getting over what could have been a World Series hangover?

Inside the Clippers Fallout with Joe House + Shi Davidi on Vladdy's Big Night
Q: How could Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s performance shift the Jays' outlook for the rest of the season and into October?
