This week on the podcast it's the baseball guys, Greg Larnerd hosts along with former soft hitting, part-time college baseball playing buddies Klifford Hawkins and Chad McDaniel. This week the guys talked all baseball which started with the review of the HUGE Braves-Mets series that just took place last weekend as well as the one coming up next week. In addition, they got into their favorite ballparks, swapped a couple of unique ballpark experience stories, and ended things with a thought provoking Chat Pack question that'll be sure to make you think...

Greg Larnerd, Malcolm Harris, and Chase Green get together for your weekly dose of shenanigans, this week without a guest it was just the guys. They kicked it off with a little ode to the late, great Bill Russell and Chase shares a story from another podcast. Then, things turn a bit more serious as the boys discussed what in the world to make of this Deshaun Watson situation, crazy MLB trade deadline, places in the world that could use a good ole tailgate, and a thought provoking Chatt Pack question from a special guest speaker.

The squad was down a member this week with Greg Larnerd on the IL but Malcolm Harris and Chase Green handled the show beautifully this week and were joined by another outstanding guest local to the Chattanooga community in brand new UTC Men's Assistant Basketball Coach Kenny White. - Growing up in Chattanooga and how it feels to be back home. - Playing High School Basketball for Oak Hill and McCallie. - Being a part of a Final 4 North Carolina team. - Coaching Journey and how he's had to adapt to playing styles. - Advice for Coaches and young players.

Gunner Miller is a local guy who played tons of sports and grew up in East Ridge. During this episode of the podcast he joined G, Chase, and Garrett Tolley to talk about his story. He got into his podcast that he's grown over the last couple of years, growing up here in the Chattanooga area, getting an opportunity to play football at UTC, adversity he dealt with, wrestling, where he's at now, and much more. Plus, don't forget the signature Chat Pack segment where Gunner picks us a couple of interesting topics to get into.

What an incredible podcast conversation this week with a local high school football coach who's been at it a very long time, in all honesty, he's a legend in our eyes and you'll see why after this conversation with assistant Boyd Buchannan football coach Mark Mariakis. The conversation started light talking about food, favorite pizza, best local burger, things like that and then the real fun started as we dove into coaches history with athletics, how he got into coaching, working with kids nowadays, how social media/NIL has changed the game, and so much more.

This week we had a different type of crew in for the podcast as G was accompanied by GT aka Garrett Tolley and Chad McDaniel. The guys opened up by BSing, swapping travel stories, and what not. Then, once the dust settled they got down to business, the business and future of college football with USC/UCLA are disbanding from the Pac-12 and heading for the Big 10. Next, it was time to dive into some crazy sports crimes that we've seen over the years and finally, we finished things up with the fun new end of the podcast segment, the Chatt It Up Chat Pack questions of the show.

Greg Larnerd, Chase Green, and Garrett Tolley team up on this episode of the podcast and the boys kept it short and sweet this week... Seg. 1: With GT being the big Mavs fan that he is, he and G had to get after it digging into the New York Knicks signing Jalen Brunson to some stupid money. Seg. 2: The boys break out the Chatt It Up Chat Pack for the first time and each ask a thought provoking question of each other... What hour of the day would you give up, which TV/movie house would you want to live in, and what's your favorite simple pleasure?

Greg Larnerd and Chase Green were joined this week by NBA expert and twice award nominated podcast host Sam Dusenbury Jr. as we got his thoughts on Steph Curry as a Top 10 player in the NBA All-time, Sam gave us his thoughts on G's and Chase's lists, and then they got into the NBA Draft and uncovered some hidden gems.

G, Miggie, and Chase are back at it again and now that the Golden State Warriors are NBA Champs and Steph Curry has his Finals MVP they're wondering does he make the Top 10 All-Time now? Speaking of Top 10 All-Time, who makes the cut on each of their lists, who makes it on your list? Later on, the guys answer thee question of the night which is, looking back on your life what's one major decision you made in your life and how did it affect you?

This week on the pod, Garrett Tolley fills in for the traveling Miggie as he joined G and Chase for the show... 1. GT overcomes Covid, missing golf, and some random TV/movie talk 2. The LIV Golf Series, do we like it? What exactly are they playing for? Why do we want to watch? 3. GT pitcher Zach Maxwell spun a gem on the bump against UT on Sunday and he got more attention for what was seen stitched into his glove as he was carving up the Vols. The guys get into whether the message was cool or not, what they'd have stitched on their glove, and more. 4. If you could get a beverage with any athlete, celebrity, famous female, dead person, who would it be...?

No Miggie on this installment of the pod but G and Chase Green were in the mix along with a special guest in Nooga Ruby star C.B. Schmelter who was nice enough to stop by the studio and hang out with us for an hour. On this episode the boys got into all the ins and outs of rugby, yes this is an educational pod if you're not well versed in the art of rugby as C.B. dives into the rules, the strategy, what positions he believes Chase and G would play, and so much more. Later, the guys dive into a couple of other topics including which NFL rookie first-round picks have the most pressure and the cupid of kickball...

This week the boys dove into an interesting NBA debate between which player is more of a fraud or which are you more disappointed in, Chris Paul or James Harden? The conversation would slide off the rails after that sharing stories about the first experiences with jazz lettuce, did G go too far in arguing a bad call during a 10U baseball tournament, and some rather bizarre facts about sex they bet you didn't know...

The boys are back this week and after a weeks worth of talk regarding what MIGHT happen in the NFL Draft they finally got to talk about the results... How the Titans, Falcons, and Packers fared plus who won the draft and what in the world were the Vikings doing?? Later, the NBA Playoffs talk heats up focusing on the Memphis Grizzlies and then shifting to whether or not Draymond Green is a Hall of Fame player or not. Finally, some funny topics of which naked human's is NASA going to be sending up to space to attract the aliens and crazy movie facts you probably didn't know.

G, Miggie, and Chase were BACK together this week and just in time for the NFL Draft... However, they kicked things off with the NBA Playoffs, navigated to the biggest NFL Draft busts of all time (who won the draft?), and we visited with Brad Spielberger of Pro Football Focus to touch on all things NFL Draft 2022 on Thursday.

Two thirds of the crew were on the pod this week as G found himself on the IL dealing with a pesky cold... However, the show must go on and it flourished with Malcolm Harris running the show and Chase Green helping to light the fires, per usual. This pod dove head first into the NBA Playoffs with a sprinkling of NFL, some light hearted humor, and so much more.

Rhea County's own Cory Gearrin joined the pod this week with G, Miggie, and Chase to talk about his story going from a little known prospect to a nine-year MLB vet. Stories are swapped, we talk about how he ended up getting scouted, his time in the show, and so much more. It's a bit of a longer one but it's a great one.
