    Getting Robbed...And Fired
    May 1 2026
    After two busy schedules slowed down, Ethan and Aaron return. Aaron shares his observations from his baseball road trip. The guys discuss the firings of managers so early in the season and what impact this could have. Aaron mentioned the Astros injury woes, and Ethan weighed in on what the training staff has to do with injuries - if any. Of course they talked a little playoff hockey, and even mentioned the NBA playoffs. Ethan tried to figure out who got to 350 career home runs the fastest, but needed some help. Enjoy the adventure and hopefully learn something along the way in this episode.

    Feb 18 2026
    The 2026 season has arrived, and Spring Training is in full swing. Aaron asks Ethan what one looks for during Spring workouts and games. Can Japan repeat in the WBC, or does Aaron Judge and company have what it takes? We recap a few observations from the Hot Stove League - including what the Mets are trying to do. Because we're sports fans, we talked about the Winter Olympics, curling, the ski jumping doping scandal, and hockey suspensions; we jumped to a little Super Bowl celebration, which gets tossed in as well. Lastly, Ethan is left speechless! Join us for all the fun as we kick off season 7.

    World Series Hangover and Post Series Changes
    Oct 29 2025
    Join Ethan and Aaron for another postseason discussion. Aaron watched most of that marathon Game 3 and might be a little delirious. Strategy plays a role, and how does it impact the game? Do you walk Ohtani, Springer, Betts, and others? What are the similarities between this year's Blue Jays and the 2017 Astros? Ban electronics/screens? Cheating is taken to a whole new level in our Pat Hobert winners for Aaron, while Ethan grants his award to a former NFL MVP. This episode might be longer than normal, but you'll enjoy the ride we take you on this go round.

Since there are playoff spots clinched, we focus on a couple of pennant races. We then jump into some football talk. Is UCLA a mess? Is South Florida a contender? Florida State and Miami showdown. How overrated is Notre Dame? The Vikings have made Matt's night long. The Jags dropped an opportunity, and the Broncos leveraged too much. Join us for a fun episode.

  • Breaking Records and Broken Records

    Breaking Records and Broken Records
    Sep 5 2025
    We are once again back on track and have a short talk about records. From Cal Raleigh and the records he has broken to the record the Rockies might be breaking. Ethan wants to see the Rockies set the futility record, while Aaron has mixed emotions. Both Ethan and Aaron believe Cal should win the MVP in the AL for one reason - Seattle is sunk without him. We cover a few quick minutes of the trade deadline as Aaron wonders why the Dodgers did mostly nothing. Is there a fracture in Houston? Watching the Framber Valdez situation makes Aaron think there is. Finally, Aaron announces the 307 Podcast Network. We'll start off that network with a huge joint podcast with our friends from the Everyman Sports Podcast. Sit down, buckle up and enjoy this latest episode.
