Tyler wanted to do a MLB Hot Stove Opinion and a trade discussion. From a singlular team perspective, pretty quiet and slow. League wide as we have seen with the monthly recaps, a lot of action with a couple of guys still out there. Should the White Sox Trade Benintendi?

Tyler essentially does a solo episode onaffordability. Brandon just does the outro and adds on a little bit of info at the end. We did this one a little differently than how we usually do episodes.Affordability is a big problem in the US in 2025 with the three main factors of Envy, Inflation, and Greed. All uploads from 11-25 had a post edit addition where Brandon recorded a couple of lines from home while everything else was in studio.Here are some articles referenced and the Terrance Wall Segment (First about half hour-ish of the last link sent):https://substack.com/@toddsheets/note/p-178973797?r=5xf2aus.https://nypost.com/2025/11/22/media/james-carville-warns-dems-to-address-affordability-crisis-or-this-thing-could-break/https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/affordability-2025-inflation-food-prices-housing-child-care-health-costs/https://wiba.iheart.com/featured/vicki-mckenna/content/2025-11-25-426-the-vicki-mckenna-show-vicki-mckenna-show-affordable-housing/

Brandon goes solo after reading baseball online circles and wanted to go over MLB deferred money, payroll, salary cap idea, and go a little over the MLB 2025 PostseasonNote from Brandon: I rambled at somepoint but I forgot to turn my mic back on so I redid about 10 minutes worth to the best of my ability of what I said when the mic was off. Probably lost about 2 to 5 minutes of info from it.

Tyler wanted to do a special rememberance for Charlie Kirk for his birthday 10/14.Charlie Kirk was assassinated about a month ago and a month ago we had our inital shock reaction and this one is more of a postmortem kind of episode connecting to it.

For the Last 6 Weeks of the Baseball Regular Season we are covering baseballStarting October 2025 we move to twice a month uploads up till Baseball Opening Day where it turns into a weekly baseball podcast.During the MLB Post Season, we will be bringing up baseball stuff occasionally otherwise we will be doing the Current Events/ News with commentary (abit on the political side of things), little sports here and there, and Video Game news as it comes up as a Twice a month new episodes, or typically one new episode every 2 weeks, Specials will also happen during the Baseball off season and Post Season. Essentially the "for fun format" we have been doing.

Our Most Energized Episode Yet! (as of Upload)We cover mostly baseball and the Boston Red Sox vs New York Yankees Rivalry especially from the fan perspective with Red Sox (and all Boston/ New England Sports Fan) Will Galarza.WARNING: This episode maybe considered offensive by some due to Will hating the New York Yankees as much as he does.Message from Will: "May the blessings of Boston be upon you."

Brandon and Tyler go to the Bob Uecker Celebration of Life game, the post game portion at the end we have a small guest appearance of Brandon's Dad who also wanted to attend the game.Keep in mind more of the post game and more on the Celebration of Life event will be covered later on before the end of the season as the Roads were super busy leaving the game (It was a Sell Out Crowd)

Brandon does a crash course on the Elder Scrolls Lore/ History in a mini series. If you already listened to each individual parts of 1 through 3 you can skip this as this is a compliation of all three parts, each add break signals when it moves to the next part.Part 1: Merethic and 1st ErasPart 2: 2nd EraPart 3: 3rd and 4th Eras

Brandon finishes up the Elder Scrolls Crash Course on Lore/ History with the 3rd and 4th Eras.

Brandon kicks off the Elder Scrolls Lore History solo. The Dawn, Merethic, and First Eras are very much a crash course for the mini series.Brandon does give permission to tell him to slow down and not stumble through a script he writes for himself.

Brandon goes over what is coming up.Hint if you like Elder Scrolls you are going to like it

Otherwise we are announcing a change in direction by narrowing down our topics!Main Topics Going forward are Current Events/ News which turns into Politics, Video Games, and Sportsball, while also leaving the door open to music. We will do specials for certain days of topics that are more thematically appropriate to also keep the variety roots but essentially we are moving to 3 topics.Also a little smidge of a sneak peak into episode 12 of the podcast
