Episode 333 features LC's Bar-B-Q owner, Tausha Hammett carries on her grandfather's legacy and New York State Baseball Hall of Fame member, Tony Morante provide exceptional barbecue and baseball talk Tausha Hammett is the owner of LC's Bar-B-Q in Kansas City, Missouri and the granddaughter of the founder, LC Richardson.  At 12 years old she began learning the business and helping.  Per Tausha, "My grandfather was a pillar and BBQ legend in the Black community and my goal is to keep his legacy and brand strong."  She is doing just that as she does everything needed to run the restaurant, "If I have to come in here after a full day, I come in here and if I have to open, I open. If I have to close, I close."  She also said, "When I make decisions that affect his legacy, I always have him in the back of my mind.  I feel like he's always looking down on me."  Ray Sheehan was instrumental in introducing us to Tausha and joins us as guest co-host. Tony Morante is a member of the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame and a Bronx, New York lifetime resident.  His father was a Yankee Stadium usher and Tony had the thrill of accompanying him to games and eventually working at the Stadium in 1958 also as an usher.  In 1973 Tony was offered a job in the New York Yankees Group and Season Sales Department.  In 1979 with the help of the Bronx County Historical Society, he began walking tours of the Stadium.  By 1998, George Steinbrenner helped Tony open a Tours Department.  Revenue accrued through the tours benefitted the Yankee Foundation, a charitable program that brought education and recreation programs to the inner-city youth.  Included among his many other accomplishments is that Tony is the author of the book, Baseball: The New York Game:  How the National Pastime Paralleled US History.

Larry Berra was an attendee at the 2022 New York State Baseball Hall of Fame Dinner sporting a tie with his dad, National Baseball Hall of Fame member, Yogi Berra's number eight proudly displayed.  Two years later he was at the dinner again, but this time it was to be part of the ceremony posthumously inducting his father into the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame.  There is no doubt that Yogi Berra may be the greatest baseball catcher of all time, but he is also one of the most beloved players ever, both on and off the field.  Larry shares many stories of his dad and what made him a true fan favorite who received many honors, including his life story being on display in the Yogi Berra Museum and Learning Center in Montclair, New Jersey.  For more information on Yogi Berra and the museum go to https://yogiberramuseum.org Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Baseball is generational. I grew up listening to Tigers games on the radio. The game meant something. It still does. So when the Hall of Fame misses on greatness — it matters. In this episode, I sit down with baseball historian and author David W. Gue to challenge the current voting system and ask a bold question: Are we honoring excellence… or protecting narratives?

On this episode we deviate a little bit from our usual format. This is our 6th straight year doing an episode with Black History Month connections. We feel it's important to be socially conscious and inclusive, especially with everything happening in the world.This year we did that by speaking with two people whose job is sharing the legacy of baseball legends. Samantha Gibson, director of education at The Jackie Robinson Museum talked to Mark Simon about the museum's mission and the many elements to Jackie Robinson the person, not just the baseball player (plus, some book recommendations for people of all ages). Then, Sean Gibson, executive director of The Josh Gibson Foundation explained how video games have helped tell the story of Sean's great-grandfather, Josh, a member of the Baseball Hall of Fame. He also shared what the Foundation is doing to further youth participation in sports in Pittsburgh.The episode also featured our alumni corner spot, this one with Chris Goudoras, director of baseball analytics at Ole Miss University. He explained what he does in his job and gave tips for aspiring baseball job seekers.Thanks as always for listening.

Josh Rawitch, President of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, joins Eric, Shane, and Cade to explore how Cooperstown preserves baseball history, adapts to analytics and evolving standards of excellence, and prepares for America's 250th anniversary while shaping the future of the game's most iconic institution. Plus, the Moneyball team analyzes standout moments from the Winter Olympics—including three-on-three hockey and mixed doubles curling—while also examining NHL goaltending streaks and Major League Baseball preseason projections that raise broader questions about league parity.

Who’s the Greatest Survivor Pro Athlete? Today, Rob Cesternino is joined by Chicago sports writer Sam Phalen for a Sports-Themed Survivor podcast, diving deep into player resumes as they debate which Survivor contestant is the greatest professional athlete to appear on the show. Super Bowl weekend sets the stage, with major league sports accomplishments and Survivor performance both in the spotlight. Right from the start, Rob and Sam highlight the crossover between real-world athletic achievements and Survivor gameplay, with Jeff Kent's Baseball Hall of Fame induction sparking much of the conversation. The podcast breaks down an impressive list of 18 Survivor alums, from NFL tackles and Olympic swimmers to race car drivers and MMA fighters. Sam and Rob explore each player's athletic career—like Brad Culpepper's nine-sack season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or Elizabeth Beisel's two Olympic medals—as well as their Survivor strategies, alliances, and challenge performances. Along the way, they debate if longevity in professional sports outweighs a season-defining idol play, and whether athletic skills always translate to success on the island. Highlights: – Jeff Kent's resume as MLB's top offensive second baseman and recent Hall of Fame nod – Brad Culpepper's dual-threat status: a decade-long NFL tackle and physical Survivor challenge beast – Uncle Cliffy (Cliff Robinson)'s legendary 18-year NBA career and swap-screwed Survivor fate – Elizabeth Beisel's story as a two-time Olympic medalist and impact on Survivor 39's early power dynamics – Funny moments like John Rocker cosplaying as another MLB closer and the myth of Julia Landauer's “vanilla” edit From big tackles to hidden idols, this episode asks whether physical and social skills really work together on Survivor. Who will take the crown for best professional athlete—does longevity, challenge wins, or a Survivor first matter most?

Drew chats with Les Wolff about who should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame and more in More from Les. Drew and Arron also share hobby news, upcoming signings, and of course, their TTM Returns!

The conversation heats up around Bill Belichick's Hall of Fame snub as Joe reacts to the added off-field drama and admits he initially thought the news was a joke. With Hall of Fame voters facing heavy backlash, Joe and the crew debate whether Belichick's cheating scandals should permanently impact his candidacy or if keeping him out for just one year makes no logical sense. They argue that personal feelings shouldn't factor into voting and compare the situation to steroid-era players being left out of Cooperstown. The discussion expands into a broader debate about cheating, legacy, and how both the Pro Football and Baseball Hall of Fame handle controversial candidates.

Kevin Kernan, member of the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame, joins Rene, Jeff, and Leonard for exceptional baseball talk Kevin Kernan has spent more than 45 years writing sports, the last 23 years as a columnist at the NY Post prior to joining BallNine. He was elected to the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame in 2020. He was a contributor to ESPN's First Take and Cold Pizza and is a frequent guest on radio shows and podcasts throughout the country. He has written seven books and has spent many years covering the NFL and NBA, but "telling baseball stories from stars like Thurman Munson (his first baseball interview) to Aaron Judge and Pete Alonso remain his first love."  Go to www.ballnine.com to read articles written by Kevin Kernan.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The conversation turns to Bill Belichick being left off the first-ballot Hall of Fame as Dave Hyde shares insight from his time as a Baseball Hall of Fame voter, explaining how personal, tense, and uncomfortable the process can become. While he understands why some voters may have held Belichick's cheating scandals against him, Dave says he still would have voted him in. The discussion includes Jimmy Johnson's claim that similar rule-bending has been common across the league and raises questions about whether Tom Brady could face similar treatment and if Robert Kraft may have influenced the outcome behind the scenes.

In the 1930s, the United States was in the grip of the Great Depression, and baseball was approaching its 100th anniversary.  One enterprising business leader in Cooperstown, New York, came up with the idea of establishing a museum and a hall of fame to honor the greatest players in the game.  Since its establishment, the Hall of Fame has become one of the most beloved institutions in the country and a source of perpetual controversy.

   Predicting what Trump will do next is a whole lot easier than predicting sports.  Our president finished up Greenland, laid waste to the globalists at Davos and now turns his attention to Canada and their terribly disrespectful Prime Minister.  Welcome to the next great theater.    Arrests have been made of the bullies that ended that church service in St. Paul a few days ago and guess what, they are paid professionals to organize such events.  And its very, very illegal to interfere with worship.  And these could be double hate crimes as they were chanting slurs about white people.  But Don Lemon claims he was just a journalist there and so far, the courts agree he shouldn't be charged.  Here we go!   A famous rapper sues the KCPD, Missouri officials (rightfully) meet in secrecy in Jeff City to try to save the Royals from leaving to Kansas.  I'll preview the NFL title games and Bill Self is back on the court at Bramlage Saturday night... we hit on some KU-KSU hoops.    Then, I play a clip of my friend www.dannyclinkscale.com as we had quite a discussion on a Patron's Podcast Thursday.  One of our topics was Carlos Beltran into the Baseball Hall of Fame.  You won't believe how much Danny dislikes this.   And our Final Final is Mr. Wonderful turning to acting.  It's true.

Topics discussed: Measuring the strengths and weaknesses of the Patriots and Broncos against one another // What's been the difference for Patriots' Drake Maye between the first and second half in the playoffs // Bruins blown out by the Stars on Tuesday; is Jeremy Swayman a "franchise" goaltender? // Comparing the head coaches (Vrabel vs. Payton) leading the Patriots and Broncos on Sunday // ESPN's Adam Schefter on potential changes to the NFL's schedule beyond 2026 // Why Ted Johnson has official joined Hart and Stiz in the "Super Bowl-or-bust" camp // Reacting to Drake Maye's comments at his midweek press conference + hearing from Patriots fans on the phone lines // Is Dustin Pedroia deserving of induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame? // Reacting to Patriots owner Robert Kraft's foreshadowing of major changes in the NFL // Three Point Stance, The Drive, Odds and Ends + more!

Today's word of the day is ‘Fogerty' as in John Fogerty as in Centerfield as in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Carlos Beltran is in. Andruw Jones is in. That's it! Two center fielders have made the Hall after just two in 45 years! (16:30) Baseball is angry. Owners are angry. Kyle Tucker to the Dodgers. Bichette and Robert to the Mets.
