Advertise on podcast: That Baseball Show

Happy 2026 (American) baseball season TBS Nation! We ran out to grab some smokes but unlike your dad we came back (eventually). Here for your listening pleasure is the live show we recorded at the 2026 Treefort Music Festival as part of Podfort. Jimmy got to pick the movie and he chose 2001's "Summer Catch", which we can all agree was a mistake. But we had fun talking about it all the same!  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about SHE'S ALL THAT, I'M SORRY I FORGOT SHE'S ALL THAT, Swinging Dead Matthew Lillards, Father of the Year Awards, Chekov's Beer, Dead Moms and Dead(beat) Dads, Classic Souvenirs, and Surprise Endings! Also, baseball. Catch us on Bluesky and leave an Apple Podcasts review, otherwise stay out of our kitchen!

We know there's lots to talk about TBS Nation, but we did just get out first In-N-Out and that's a big deal! We get to that eventually, but host Emeritus Cody Fitch and Matt first cover Shohei's contract (the other stuff will be on an episode coming soon!), The sorrow of the A's, and the Mariners Mariners-ing.  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about X-ile In Twitville, The Myspace of Reunions, and A Bay of Two Cities. Also, baseball. Catch us on our NEW Bluesky account and leave an Apple Podcasts review, hobbitses! More episodes coming soon, we're back (again) baybee!

A belated happy Mother's Day to those who observe! Also happy Father's Day, although that didn't make it on the episode since we recorded over a month ago. This one got away from us, hit "play" and I'll tell you all about it. You'll also catch Ryan and Matt talk about rain delays, spend way too much time talking about gambling, and dunk on some "meh" City Connects.  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about our Exile on Tweet Street, Come From (A Few Years) Away, and Chili Connect Jerseys. Also, baseball. They are @jimmy_bowman and @ryan_mceachern on Twitter, meanwhile Matt is @mattybosox on Instagram if you'd like to stay connected bc transphobes. RIP at thatbbshow! Do leave us an Apple Podcast review tho, kings of the draft!

Here is the audio from our live show at the 2023 Treefort Music Festival! Listen to Matt and Jimmy talk about perhaps the worst $15 Matt ever spent as they discuss, debate and deride the 2005 cinematic mistake that was Fever Pitch. Thank you to everyone who joined us, and a special thank you to TMF and Alisha, Derek and Brett at Podfort for having us! Give us a listen and make sure you subscribe you don't miss an episode, and say hello @ThatBBShow on Twitter, cool kids!

Keep an eye on our feed for that episode, it was a great time and we can't thank TMF and Podfort enough for having us back. Until then, @ThatBBShow on Twitter and leave us a review on Apple Podcasts, library owls!

Listen. Matt and Ryan will get to the rest of the conversation about the new rule changes for MLB this year. But first, we gotta pants some Jeopardy! nerds. We explore the vibes that are baseball and maybe contradict ourselves (a little) as we explore a shift-less American game. We even touch on the World Baseball Classic! Ol' Babe made it here, we're all sure that you will.  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about The Today Show: Nights, CW: Scraping (Teeth, Barrels), Cocaine Mascots, and Matt Does A Basketball. Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow on Twitter & leave an Apple Podcasts review, cocaine mascots!

Guest host Ryan McEachern just flew back from spring training and boy, are his arms tired! No really, he basically had to flap his non-existent wings to get himself there. He tells us all about his harrowing trip to AZ and we start (but do not finish!) diving into MLB's rule changes.  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about Matt's Desert Knowledge, Hertz Plane Rentals, and It's A Clock-Off. Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow on Twitter and leave an Apple Podcast review, flappy birds!

This episode is pretty much a done deal, TBS Nation, provided nothing silly happens like an old foot injury giving a bunch of people mesothelioma or anything. And that almost never happens! Matt and Ryan dive into one off-season move so big it happened a few times, and another that was too long coming.  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about Arson Judge's Oddly Shaped Feet, The Padres Tax, Bauer's Out(age), and Your Weird Dad's e-Card. Also, baseball. @thatbbshow on Twitter and leave an Apple Podcasts review, Hulkamaniacs!

It sure is great to get out of cryostasis just in time to announce our new crypto venture! This is a good time for that, right? We've been asleep, we don't know. Matt and Ryan thaw out while covering the 2022 postseason that was, the issue with "championships or bust", and the Houston Problem. And oh yeah, the Mets!  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about That Baseball Coin, Matt's Mooncar, The Man With One Name, and Simulated Hell. Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow and leave an Apple Podcasts review, HODLers!

The league is a-drip with those jerseys people love to hate and/or love. Maybe it's okay if they're just okay? Matt and Ryan ponder this and also consider the quantum state of the Mets and Angels and lace up a farewell to Joe Girardi but not Joe Maddon, as he was fired after we recorded. Shrug emoji.  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about Shorts For All Seasons, Barenaked Pedroias, The Familia Effect, Obscure Stephen King References, & The Pride of the Rays. Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow and leave an Apple Podcasts review, Schrodinger's cats and kitties!

If friend of the podcast and founder/host of the McEachern Podcast Network is going to be subbing as co-host on this show, Matt has a few questions(?) for him. We also discuss Miggy and the nature of blowouts/mercy kills in The Show.  Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about Dickcoin To The Moon, A Big Ball of Garbage, and Pulling the Catcher. Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow and leave an Apple Podcast Review, diamond-handers!

Jimmy and Matt dive deep into baseball's long and weird history for this episode recorded LIVE at the Treefort Music Festival in downtown Boise, Idaho! We bring back our beloved segment Better Know An Old-Timey Baseball Player and learn the finer points of dealing coke in a 1970's clubhouse. Thank you to TMF for having us and thank you for joining us, new fans! Come say hi @ThatBBShow on Twitter and leave an Apple Podcast review why don'cha?

A new episode? It's a St. Lockout's Day Miracle! Just as we were about to retire, MLB has dragged us back in. Jimmy and Matt shake off the rust by playing WARdle (bit or segment?) and discuss how/why/when American major league baseball is happening this year. OH YEAH! Listen to this episdoe if you want to hear us talk about Greta Garbling, Ronn Weasley, and Metaphysical Deadlines. Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow on Twitter & leave us a review party sinners!

No, TBS Nation, this isn't Heaven. But maybe don't stand too close to home plate while you listen to Jimmy try to remember his way through a certain movie he's never seen. We also discuss the evolution of Cleveland team names and enjoy some old-timey players! Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about The Birth of Corn Syrup, Naps for Infants, Petty No-Hitter Breakups, and the Houston Goodguns. Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow on Twitter and leave an iTunes review, ya Black Sox!

To tame these mean streets, it'll take more bullets than this hard-boiled cop has with which to shoot fires. Listen to him avenge his partner while Jimmy and Matt cover Spider Tack, the blowful D-Backs, and Hyped Boys doing Hype Things. OR YOU'RE OFF THE CASE. Listen to this episode if you want to hear us talk about Scott Stapp Redux, The Ecstasy of Vladito, and The Angriest Self-Pantsing. Also, baseball. @ThatBBShow and leave an Apple Podcasts review, Bigfeet!
