Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker break down the Blue Jays' 3-1 win over the Mariners to take the first of three games in Toronto! They take your calls and texts, and they get right to the plays made from Addison Barger in the outfield - can we expect to see more defensive gems from him? They get into George Springer continuing to look good in his return to the lineup, and discuss Bowden Francis only allowing one run over six innings of work. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
The Blue Jays couldn't afford to dig themselves an early hole this season, and they've managed to avoid doing exactly that. Chris Bassitt, Jeff Hoffman, and Yimi Garcia pitching like the best starter, closer, and setup man in baseball will certainly help in that regard. But whether their success will prove durable—whether enough offence will come, whether the rotation will hold, and whether the bullpen can continue to live up to an impossibly high standard while being relied-upon heavily—remains to seen.PLUS: Putting an over/under on Max Scherzer's innings pitched, figuring out the roster once Nathan Lukes returns (a conversation we had before Davis Schneider was optioned down to Buffalo), check-ins on Barger, Wagner, Clement, and more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This week on The Whiskey Trip, Big Chief rolls into Statesville, North Carolina—a city once hailed as the “liquor capital of the world”, where whiskey-making wasn't just a trade, it was the lifeblood of the region. He heads to Southern Distilling Company, where that spirit of craftsmanship and community is alive and well. There, he sits down with founder and owner Pete Barger, a visionary reviving Statesville's legacy sip by sip. With a rocks glass of their rich wheated bourbon in hand, Big Chief listens as Pete shares the deep roots of whiskey in Western Carolina—and how Southern Distilling is carrying that torch into a bold new era. From producing over 20,000 barrels a year to being the go-to source for contract distillation, Pete and his team are giving brands across the country a taste of real Carolina pride—rooted in heritage, aged with honor, and bottled with purpose. This episode is more than just a tasting. It's a tribute to a region reborn, where history pours strong and tradition never fades. This is The Whiskey Trip. Cheers, y'all.

Imagine this: seven days, seven different airports, and never leaving the terminal. No hotel rooms, just uncomfortable airport benches. Showers? Airport bathrooms only. Food? A strict $20-a-day budget. This wasn't a punishment; it was an experiment. In this special episode of The Thermostat Podcast, Jason V. Barger shares the remarkable origin story of his "Step Back from the Baggage Claim" philosophy – a journey that began with a bold, unconventional research project. Jason immersed himself in the chaotic world of airport terminals, observing human behavior at its most raw. He witnessed the "human wall of entitlement" at baggage carousels, the frustration of delayed flights, and the fleeting interactions between strangers. This experience became the foundation for his groundbreaking work on leadership and corporate culture. This episode isn't just about airports. It's about: The Power of Perspective: How stepping back from the everyday rush can reveal profound insights about ourselves and the cultures we create. Human Connection in a Disconnected World: Why recognizing the humanity in those around us is crucial for both personal and organizational success. Navigating Adversity: Learning to respond to challenges with intention and grace, rather than reacting with frustration. The Courage to Begin: How a seemingly crazy idea, fueled by a desire to make a difference, can transform into a meaningful career. Intentions and Actions: What you can do to become the ambassador of change. Join Jason as he reflects on the lessons learned during those seven days, the key principles that still guide his work, and how the "Step Back" philosophy can help you lead more effectively and create a more positive impact, wherever you are. This is the story of how a unique experiment sparked a movement – and it might just change the way you think about leadership, culture, and the power of human connection. Tune in and discover how to "step back to move forward" in your own life and work. You will not want to miss the start of Jason V. Barger and what has led him to be a sought-after keynote speaker. How did all of this journey begin and what was the point? Jason Barger reflects on the Step Back from the Baggage Claim journey and spirit that ignited it all.

The 2025 MLB season is nearly upon us, and the Blue Jays have a fighting chance in an ultra-tight American League in which every team still has the same record. But merely meeting their projections won't be good enough, and succeeding will rely on some good stories from a group of position player prospects older than Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and health from a starting rotation with an average age of 34. This week we talk about what it will take for the Jays to have a successful season and how an unsuccessful one might play out, why the team chose Roden over Barger and parted ways with Ryan Yarbrough, the reasons to really like Alejandro Kirk's contract—plus predictions for the season and more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
