Burnin’ Daylight

On this episode of Burnin' Daylight Sports, me, Jake, and Eric go deep into the MLB season as we round the corner past the 30-game mark. We break down the wild division races, how the Rockies might be chasing a historic collapse, and why the A's are way more fun than they should be. We also recap the NFL Draft, talk walk-offs, superstitions, and drop our favorite walk-up songs. Plus, we launch our newest merch idea: “Baseball Is for Autists” — because this game is all about numbers, rituals, and vibes.

Howdy there, Daylight Burners – it's Matt McKinley back in the saddle. This episode's been brewing in my mind for a while, and like most of my best ideas, it wanders a bit but (hopefully) ties together pretty damn nicely. We're diving deep into the meaning of "Uva Uvam Vivendo Varia Fit" — that strange little Latin phrase you know from Lonesome Dove — and how it ties into life, California, and the way we all change by the company we keep. From cowboys and feedlot Spanish, to the wild beauty (and sheer dysfunction) of California, to how rural and urban America are drifting further apart — I'm talking it all out, cowboy philosopher style. I also give a heads-up on some exciting things happening with the show: recording new episodes out of the historic HeyDay Inn in Smith Valley, Nevada, and a quick preview of some big interviews and events coming your way. Whether you're here for cowboy stories, fence post politics, baseball ramblings, or just some quality time burning daylight, you're in the right place. Highlights include: Breaking down Uva Uvam Vivendo Varia Fit and why bad Latin is part of the charm How living near California has changed my perspective (and why it's still worth saving) Thoughts on rural vs. urban America, and how history shaped that divide Why Burning Daylight is branching out into new in-person interviews Big news about the HeyDay Inn becoming a new partner of the show A little rant (or two) about expensive gas, Sacramento adventures, and the A's Sponsors: This episode is brought to you by the HeyDay Inn in Smith Valley, Nevada – proud to keep cowboy traditions (and a cold beer) alive. Call to Action: Make sure to subscribe to all the new feeds: → Burning Daylight Sports → Death of Fun → Fence Post Politics (coming soon!)

In this episode, I'm joined by ranch bronc rider, pickup man, and all-around cowboy TeJay Fenster. We dive deep into the roots and rise of ranch bronc riding—from its roughstock origins and "beer behind the chutes" days to its emergence as a full-blown professional sport. TeJay shares stories from the road, insight into different rulebooks and associations, and the nuances of bronc riding technique, culture, and horsemanship. We talk about how rodeo has changed over the years, the evolution of ranch rodeos, the role of professionalism in the arena, and why the Western States Ranch Rodeo Finals might just be the proving ground for the best bronc riders in the world.

This week on Death of Fun, we spiral from baseball to war crimes without spilling a drop. Matt, Aaron, Rob, and Tim dive into the most chaotic convo yet: Rockies' dumpster fire of a Fourth of July game, Lindsey Graham's alleged alter ego, MS-13 deportation drama, Gaza, Ukraine, nukes, smallpox blankets, Jewish butt plugs, and more. We're not saying it's smart — just that it's funny. Kind of. If you're easily offended, maybe don't hit play. If you're not... welcome to the death of fun. Listen now on Spotify

Baseball is back, and so are we! This week, me, Eric, and Jake dive headfirst into the first ten games of the MLB season and break down why the NL West is looking absolutely stacked (except for the Rockies—sorry, not sorry). We cover everything from breakout rookies to minor league mascots with the best (and worst) logos in baseball. Tim Tawa's rise from Reno to the show gets some love, we clown on bad branding, and I officially declare my love for the Montgomery Biscuits. We also talk about the early surprises around the league—hello, Padres—and wonder if the Mariners can find their bats, if the Royals are quietly dangerous, and if Vlad Jr. really deserved that monster contract. Plus, we're setting up a 64-team bracket for the best minor league logos, so send us your picks. And yeah, fantasy baseball is firing up—hit me up to join the league.

Strap in, folks—this episode is just the beginning of a no-holds-barred look at the world's biggest power moves and what it all means for us regular folks trying to make a living in a world on fire.

We tackle the pressing issues of our time: hemorrhoids, airport bars, wrestling competitions, and the hierarchy of gay corn-fed farm boys. Oh, and there's political chaos too, because what's life without roasting some cabinet picks and fantasizing about Dick Cheney's gangster streak? If you've got a beer in hand and zero respect for political correctness, welcome to the Death of Fun. This episode is proof that the world might be lame now, but we're still here to keep it weird. Show Notes: A Proper Welcome: Dirt roads, bad jokes, and beers in boots—setting the tone. The Sybian Debate: For Large Marge? For Boebert? What's your limit? Political Roast: Cheney, Pelosi, Trump, Kamala, and even SecDef—no one escapes. Aaron's Hemorrhoid Chronicles: Florida tides, snorkeling infections, and why he's sworn off beach vacations. Wrestling Practice Gone Wrong: I'm helping, I swear—but the jokes write themselves. Corn-Fed Hierarchy: Hot Midwest farm boys vs. Tim. Who comes out on top? Tales from the Road: Wedding chaos, Irish drinking feats, and airport bar adventures. Closing Thoughts: If you made it this far, you're family. And probably as messed up as we are.
