TBS 143: Summer Catch LIVE @ Treefort 2026!
Happy 2026 (American) baseball season TBS Nation! We ran out to grab some smokes but unlike your dad we came back (eventually). Here for your listening pleasure is the live show we recorded at the 2026 Treefort Music Festival as part of Podfort. Jimmy got to pick the movie and he chose 2001's...
-
TBS 142: The Hamburger, or In and Out Again
We know there's lots to talk about TBS Nation, but we did just get out first In-N-Out and that's a big deal! We get to that eventually, but host Emeritus Cody Fitch and Matt first cover Shohei's contract (the other stuff will be on an episode coming soon!), The sorrow of the A's, and the Mariners...
-
TBS 141: A Podcast (Rain) Delayed Is A Podcast Denied
A belated happy Mother's Day to those who observe! Also happy Father's Day, although that didn't make it on the episode since we recorded over a month ago. This one got away from us, hit "play" and I'll tell you all about it. You'll also catch Ryan and Matt talk about rain delays, spend way too...
-
TBS 140: Fever Pitch LIVE at TMF 2023!
Here is the audio from our live show at the 2023 Treefort Music Festival! Listen to Matt and Jimmy talk about perhaps the worst $15 Matt ever spent as they discuss, debate and deride the 2005 cinematic mistake that was Fever Pitch. Thank you to everyone who joined us, and a special thank you to…

TBS Feed Drop: The Baseball Bucket List w/Anna DiTommaso!
Happy Opening Week, TBS Nation! Matt had the opportunity a while back to chat w/Anna from The Baseball Bucket List, another excellent baseball pod that you should subscribe to and put into your earholes! Here is the episode TBB just released, dropped into our feed so you won't miss it. Don't miss...
-
TBS 139: Are You Sure Babe Done It That Way?
Listen. Matt and Ryan will get to the rest of the conversation about the new rule changes for MLB this year. But first, we gotta pants some Jeopardy! nerds. We explore the vibes that are baseball and maybe contradict ourselves (a little) as we explore a shift-less American game. We even touch on...
-
TBS 138: Planes, Spring Training, And Automobiles
Guest host Ryan McEachern just flew back from spring training and boy, are his arms tired! No really, he basically had to flap his non-existent wings to get himself there. He tells us all about his harrowing trip to AZ and we start (but do not finish!) diving into MLB's rule changes. Listen to…
more -
TBS 137: Pending Physical
This episode is pretty much a done deal, TBS Nation, provided nothing silly happens like an old foot injury giving a bunch of people mesothelioma or anything. And that almost never happens! Matt and Ryan dive into one off-season move so big it happened a few times, and another that was too long...
-
TBS 136: Returns for the Mack
It sure is great to get out of cryostasis just in time to announce our new crypto venture! This is a good time for that, right? We've been asleep, we don't know. Matt and Ryan thaw out while covering the 2022 postseason that was, the issue with "championships or bust", and the Houston Problem.…
more -
TBS 135: Fools For the City (Connect) (...Jerseys)
The league is a-drip with those jerseys people love to hate and/or love. Maybe it's okay if they're just okay? Matt and Ryan ponder this and also consider the quantum state of the Mets and Angels and lace up a farewell to Joe Girardi but not Joe Maddon, as he was fired after we recorded. Shrug...
-
TBS 134: How Good At Baseball Player is Ryan McEachern?
If friend of the podcast and founder/host of the McEachern Podcast Network is going to be subbing as co-host on this show, Matt has a few questions(?) for him. We also discuss Miggy and the nature of blowouts/mercy kills in The Show. Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about…

Jimmy and Matt dive deep into baseball's long and weird history for this episode recorded LIVE at the Treefort Music Festival in downtown Boise, Idaho! We bring back our beloved segment Better Know An Old-Timey Baseball Player and learn the finer points of dealing coke in a 1970's clubhouse.…
more -
TBS 132: The Kool-Aid Man of the Luxury Tax
A new episode? It's a St. Lockout's Day Miracle! Just as we were about to retire, MLB has dragged us back in. Jimmy and Matt shake off the rust by playing WARdle (bit or segment?) and discuss how/why/when American major league baseball is happening this year. OH YEAH! Listen to this episdoe if…
more -
TBS 131: The Heaven Plate
No, TBS Nation, this isn't Heaven. But maybe don't stand too close to home plate while you listen to Jimmy try to remember his way through a certain movie he's never seen. We also discuss the evolution of Cleveland team names and enjoy some old-timey players! Listen to this episode if you want to...
-
TBS 130: Fire Bullet Starring Louis Gossett Jr.
To tame these mean streets, it'll take more bullets than this hard-boiled cop has with which to shoot fires. Listen to him avenge his partner while Jimmy and Matt cover Spider Tack, the blowful D-Backs, and Hyped Boys doing Hype Things. OR YOU'RE OFF THE CASE. Listen to this episode if you want…
more -
TBS 129: That's No Pierogi, It's A Calzone
We realize by the time this comes out this topic will have had its moment in the sun, but can we as a nation take some time to look back on some TERRIBLE hats? Can we also discuss the plethora of no-hitters and play our favorite game, Shut Up, Old Man? We can't? Well, that's the episode…
more -
TBS 128: It Can't Get Any Worse
Happy 2021 MLB season, friends! We hope you like our tagline for it, as well as our covering of extra innings/ghost runners, Atlanta/NYM shenanigans, Bauer's balls, and corporate wokeness. We also dive deep into antitrust! Did we mention we consider this a funny show? Listen to this episode if…

TBS 127: 2021 Season Preview LIVE w/Ryan McEachern!
Hello TBS Nation! The pandemic, stubbornly clutching onto to our country and world as it has done for the past year, made our yearly Treefort Music Fest live show quite impossible. But we took a stab at a Zoom show joined by our special guest Ryan McEachern of the McEachern Podcast Network! We…

TBS 126: Rotary Club Omerta
We're back dear listeners, with a reminder that what happens at the weird old man club doesn't always stay at the weird old man club. Fix yourself a Dapper Joseph and hear us tackle the latest hot MLB Twitter goss and dive deep into MiLB contraction! Listen to this episode if you want to hear us...

TBS 125: No Gods, No Kings, Only Immortal Baseball Wizards
Put on your finest finery and walk with us down the TBSBBHOF red carpet as we celebrate one of the greatest ever to play the game! We try to tackle the question of why the HOF is such a drag- we also play "Are They Trying?" w/the 2021 hot stove season and write a new Saw movie. Listen to this...
-
TBS 124: 30 for 30: .500
What if I told you that a baseball team would defy the odds, silence the critics and reward the faithful by winning as many games as they lose? Listen as we explore this heroic tale as well as the Dodgers dongfest and the Astros' heel turn. Jimmy also makes a case for NY and we say goodbye to...
-
TBS 123: 50 Shades of Mookie
We don't know about you TBS Nation, but the very thought of our favorite players playing well for another team...awakens...something within us. Join us as we explore those dark fantasies, ponder baseball in actual Hell and make a few Joe Kelly faces along the way. Listen to this episode if you…

TBS 122: Okay, So *Are* We Doing This? (Part II) w/ Ryan McEachern!

more -
TBS 121: Okay, So We're Doing This (Part 1) w/Ryan McEachern!

more -
TBS 120: MLB Crossing: No (Season On The) Horizon
Trust us, we'd prefer (ok, *Matt* would prefer) to talk AC:NH all day but Jimmy did a lot of work to breakdown the current state of negotiations between the players and the owners/league about the 2020 season. So we dive deep into the bad faith and absurdity that prevails in American pro ball…
more -
TBS 119: Jimmy and Me and Swole Daddy Makes Three
The orchestra's yawning and they're dimming the lights down dear listeners, so it can only mean one thing- it's the last The Last Dance. We talk about a show having nothing to do with baseball that only one of has seen, and we also break down the mascots of the KBO because there isn't much else…
more -
TBS 118: Ballpark Concessions
Remember a time when you could go to a ballgame without having to rub peanuts in your eyes and pretzels on your face? Sean Hannity remembers, and he's got some tips and tricks for a post-'rona sporting world! We talk about what that world would look like, what it looks like now, and Matt gets…
more -
TBS 117: Of Manfred and Men
Join us in the lonely Manfred Mansion as our Dear Commish asks himself why baseball is so bad and plays with the rabbits one last time. We also talk (more) Astros, the Mets clubhouse, Nolan, and (sigh x a billion) Mookie. We're gonna get it through it, gang! Listen to this episode if you want to...
-
TBS 116: If The Use Is Fair, You Shouldn't Care
One of you managers is responsible for the MURDER of baseball, and we've called you into our parlour to j'accuse you! Is that how you say it? Let us know while we discuss *heavy sigh* sign-stealing, MiLB contraction, and the curious case of Martin Miller. Listen to this episode if you want to…
more -
TBS 115: RENDON!
We have a very special guest at the top of this episode to explain to us why good players are actually BAD?!

-
TBS 113: Life During Cival Wartime
Thanks for tuning into this episode but do keep it at a low volume- we are a month into the Umprising and it's pretty dicey out there. Keep your heads down while we cover (some of) the World Series, Trump's visit to Nationals Park, the dumb and bad Astros front office, and postseason manager…
more -
TBS 113: Gary's Last Ride
Ah Gary, thanks for coming in. We appreciate everything you've done Gary, but it's time for you to be plugged into a weird action movie from the 90's. Make your peace as Jimmy and Matt cover pre/postseason predictions, King Felix, MadBum, coach firings and petty beefs. Also sorry we talk about…
more -
TBS 112: My Stupid Team: Rockies w/Geoff Renstrom!
This episode was recorded in Denver with our good friend fellow Rox fan Geoff, so we decided what better time to turn Jimmy's weekly grousing into another MST installment. We also talk gas station boner pills (like a lot, CW here), exciting rookies, and do some blasphemy to the Catholic Church…
more -
TBS 111: H.A.M.F.H

-
TBS 110: Rawkin Cheah Saves
We just want to get out ahead of this; this episode does NOT hinge largely on re-naming a certain minor league team after a fish. Having now said that legally you can't say it does. We also talk London Series, Cookie Monster, the Mets, and a break in the Ortiz case! Listen to this episode if you...
-
TBS 109: The Stickball Funnies
Old-timey salutations, TBS Nation! We've overcome what I would describe as "significant technical setbacks" to bring you this new ep, wherein we discuss David Ortiz, Muncy v. MadBum, Pillar's slaying slide, and umpire/player Twitter relations. Listen to this episode if you want to hear us discuss...

TBS 108: The Fall of Cartilage
Whether you mark time in clips, grips or hot minutes, we're back! Jimmy and Matt uncover candidates for Worst Walk-off and First Pitch, talk Fortnite ballpark cam dances, praise Bill Buckner and Dustin Pedroia (but only bury one), and talk Vladito and other 90's player scions. Listen and be...

Tin Cuck w/Mike Sharp!
Matt's on the bench this week, so what better time than now for a make-up recording with friend of the podcast Mike Sharp! We discuss Mike's career as a T-ball coach, Tim Anderson's very good bat flips and Vladito and Harper while staying away from Cal Ripken's wife. Listen to this episode if you...

TBS 105: 2019 Presents and Predictions
Jimmy and Matt are the worst gift-givers ever- instead of fun Opening Day presents, they got each other all of the infuriating things we have to ignore to enjoy this season in a real reverse-Magi situation. We make over/under picks and predict division finishes, and anticipate bullpen meltdowns....
-

New Ballot, Who Dis?
We did it gang, Edgar Martinez made it into the Hall! Maybe don't ask *how* we did it. Also please call our lawyer, we wasted our one phone call on Edgar. This ep is all HoF- who made it, who didn't, who might. We also dream about what a Manny Ramirez induction speech would look like, and it is...
-
Bear Enthusiasm w/Danielle Sauers!
Happy New Year Nation! We kick 2019 off with special guest and our bestest friend Danielle Sauers from CubsDen to talk minor league baseball, free agency, garbage plates, and weird aggression toward baseball fandom. Also wizard poop I guess? Listen to this episode if you'd like to hear us talk...
-
My Stupid Team: Mariners w/Zack Evans
This week we have Zack Evans of the @WrestleboysCast for another installment of My Stupid Team, covering those losers for whom our love is undetermined: The Mariners! Also we meant Art Lafleur not Ed O'Neill, & we talk airline food at the 3:00 mark but it got weirdly cut off. Also Adam v. Babe…

The Deathball Era
On this special episode we hand out our annual awards that we've never handed out before! We also revisit preseason over/unders, mourn a gaudy statue, bid on Bryce and swerve into 10 minutes or so of Space Jam. Also we say something bad about Mitch McConnell (let the SEO pour!). Listen to this...

IMDBB
That's a nice podcast you have here. We're big fans and we want to make sure you get it, but this is a negotiation, y'know? What's in it for us? While you think about a price, we'll chat about announcer brawls, Todd Frazier's trick ball, Papa Yellich, Jacob DeGrom and Brandon McCarthy's Prestige....
