Review supplement
In a previous installment of my review of this show, I stated that this show is better when sticking to baseball. Well, not really. What I meant was... Cistulli should shut his pie hole. Or, should I say, his lemon curd tart hole. I'm a red blooded American male. I like rock and or roll, jazz, apple pie and baseball and wanton, unprotected sex. I like the hard ball because I want to see an orb hurled at 90+ MILES/hour and blasted 400+ FEET. If the mamby, pamby host had his way the distance between bases would probably be in meters. Pitch speed measured in kilometers per hour. I hate book reviews and especially hate lofty jerks talking about being at play or whatever his stupid game treatise is. If I wanted liberal philosophy shoved down my throat, I'd spend time with my wife listening to NPR being bored. The droll host obviously likes baseball because he likes ratios, long division and math. His obsession with Clubhouse Confidential borders on restraining order worthy. But, like Brian Kenny, Cistulli is a Toby Flenderson, meaning he is the worst. The show is only listenable on Tuesday's. This is the day that the Great Dayn Perry shouts obscenities, calls out the host's Anti-American bias and invokes the names of our founders and framers. These are things I can tolerate. If another science fiction writer is on, I will have no choice but to go back to injecting heroin if I'd want to listen. In retrospect, if you wear a tweed jacket with elbow patches, prefer wine priced above $10/bottle instead of rail booze or are a member of a club with the word Society in it's title, you'll like Carson. The show would be 5 stars if Perry hosted. If not Perry, then the Sklar brothers on acid would be acceptable.Read full review »

I find the combination of sabermetric leaning analysis, interviews with industry figures, fantasy analysis and outstanding conversation on the founders and framers to be greatly enjoyable. So varied a combination is challenging to produce well, however Mr Cistulli's efforts in this regard...Read full review »

The host is good, and the guests are always full of information

Good podcast, I really like the Dave Cameron episodes. It REALLY tends to get off track though. There are frequent times when it doesn't even cover baseball, it's just two dudes talking. I do really like it when it's baseball centric, as it tends to be when Dave Cameron is on. But it...Read full review »
