Episode 2236 – Kid A.G. and Jay go hard on what used to be America’s pastime before it got turned into a high-speed, overproduced dance party with cheerleaders, nets, and analytics nerds running the show.
In this ep, we’re calling out:
⚾️ The Yankees’ real ring count (spoiler: it might just be two)
💉 The steroid era’s impact — and who belongs in the damn Hall of Fame
📱 Why baseball stadiums used to feel like temples and now feel like TikTok hellscapes
📈 The statistical sabotage of the game and the nerds who never played but ruin everything
👨👩👧👦 How baseball became “American Bandstand” for attention-deficit generations
📼 Memories of Tiger Stadium, the crack of the bat, and the soul of a sport being stripped away
🏟️ Ideas to fix the mess — like BP tickets, doubleheaders, and getting cheerleaders off the damn dugouts
Also:
– Jay finally admits he’s waited too long to make a move and delivers the lesson of the day: If you see a chance, take it.
– Kid pitches one of the most genius fan experience ideas MLB will never implement because it makes too much damn sense.
– And yes, the guys reflect on just how hard Cal Ripken Jr. must have been built to never take a day off. Respect.
This one’s a love letter to baseball before it got glitter-bombed. No apologies. Just truth, passion, and enough f-bombs to make Joe West blush.
