Don’t get TOO excited Sox fans! But should Yankee fans get THAT nervous? Maybe. Plus, John sings the praises of AUBURN UNIVERSITY.

What began as a podcast about the Red Sox and Yankees has become so much more. Whether it's focused on the legendary Sox-Yanks rivalry, Sabermetrics or sobriety, Brian Shactman and John Senecal elevate the conversation. These two SuperFans -- one Boston, one New York -- have been in the stands or press box for some of sports' greatest moments, and their perspective will give you plenty to think and talk about.

Don’t get TOO excited Sox fans! But should Yankee fans get THAT nervous? Maybe. Plus, John sings the praises of AUBURN UNIVERSITY.
Tatis Jr and his lost millions, and will Wander get back to MLB? Abner Uribe’s embarrassment. Did Taylor loan Kelce millions? Oh, and we check in on our teams.
The Sox seem so lifeless. The Yanks embarrassed by Subway. But make sure to stay to the end for the Vargas talk and an insider’s view of the ABS system.
Two lifelong Yankee fans reflect on the legendary Yankee announcer — from steak dinners with him, to piping his voice into the living room. And the Red Sox guy chimes in, too.
FINALLY a chance to break down the mess that is the Red Sox. Conclusions may surprise you. AND John has a meltdown (epic!) over Fenway Park.
Yup, it’s Yankees-Red Sox. Predictions and the ONE thing Brian is worried about. Oh, and Mike Trout to New York.
The Yankees aren’t as good as we thought, and maybe, the Sox aren’t as bad? And has parity become a part of baseball (outside of the Dodgers of course)?
The Yankees are at the top. The Sox at the bottom. And John is STILL grumpy. We talk Opening Day, ABS, big contracts for minor leaguers and more.
Division. Wild Card. World Series. MVP. We have it all, including (surprise) Brian ACTUALLY excited about the Sox!
Team USA fails to bring home the gold and should get used to second place. What needs to change and who can do it?!
The WBC has been better than expected – – competitiveness, fun, TV ratings. And how about the Italians?! Certainly not because of the Americans. We’ll talk about how it may end up.
We set up for the WBC a talk about complicated pitching dynamics, and yes, somehow, John Means enters the conversation.
A wide range of issues, from our feelings on spring training and the WBC to multi-million dollar cards and the dangers of working in the media.
Pitchers/Catchers soon! We check in and chime in on WBC, Super Bowl and Olympics!!!
The legendary UConn coach gives the inside scoop on a bunch, from paying players to his favorite one, not named George Springer. And of course, we ask him: Yanks or Sox?!?!
We update our teams, put Dodgers spending in perspective, and, of course, we share some classic holiday traditions.
We talk turkey on some player moves (Tatis to NY?) and talk turkey about our best Thanksgiving memories as well.
We are witnessing some of the best talent EVER... but is the gambling sullying everything? And where might you see Jackie Bradley Jr next year? Surprise surprise.
We root around the World Series for the nuggets others aren't talking about. The magic of Japanese pitchers and the irony of the low-salary guys being money for the Dodgers.
We give our World Series Predictions! Will Don Mattingly finally get a ring? We will also discuss Ring Stupidity and Gambling Stupidity!
