Welcome to Episode 83 of Tablesetters! We've got a phenomenal guest joining us today — Tim Dillard, a beloved figure in the baseball world whose personality is as electric as his insight. A former MLB pitcher with an 18-year professional career, Tim spent the bulk of his playing days in the Milwaukee Brewers organization, earning respect not just for his durability on the mound but for his unmatched clubhouse presence and deep love of the game. Since hanging up his cleats, Tim has seamlessly transitioned into the broadcast booth, where his humor, storytelling, and unique player perspective have made him a fan favorite all over again. Today, we're pulling back the curtain on his journey — from reinventing his delivery mid-career to finding his voice on the mic — and getting his candid thoughts on the 2025 Brewers. We discuss what feels like a season in transition for Milwaukee, a team still searching for consistency but loaded with potential. Tim shares his perspective on what needs to click, which young arms could provide a jolt, and why he believes this group can still make a run. We also reflect on the passing of Bob Uecker and what he meant to the Brewers family, both on and off the field. Plus, we dive into Jackson Chourio's growth, the rise of Jacob Misiorowski, and what it's really like balancing levity and analysis in today's media landscape. And yes — we wrap it up with some fun bracket talk, including the legendary N64 games showdown Tim stirred up back in spring. It's a wide-ranging, heartfelt, and hilarious conversation that blends baseball, broadcasting, and perspective.

The Milwaukee Brewers baseball season begins tomorrow against the New York Yankees. I thought it would be fitting to put together a podcast that would involve Baseball Hall of Fame player Joe Torre, who played with the Milwaukee Braves for nine seasons and later managed the Yankees and, in my opinion, the all-time best baseball announcer Bob Uecker. Bob was a huge supporter of the Milwaukee Braves Historical Association. At an association banquet, celebrating Joe Torre, we got a nice surprise when Bob Uecker gave a memorable tribute to Joe. Bob said, before the banquet, that he didn't want to speak. But after Torre wrapped up the night with his speech, I asked Bob if he would say a few words about his former roommate. Without hesitation, he got up and did 15 minutes of hilarious insights and stories that had those in attendance rolling over with laughter. This was the last time Uecker spoke in front of this organization. We are all going to miss his play-by-play, his stories and the many laughs he gave us throughout 50 years with the Brewers.

SERIES 3 EPISODE 88: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Which one of these stories will you be talking about tomorrow? Remember when he said he’d be a dictator but only on day one? It’s day one. BEST JOKE OF THE YEAR: “The great thing about moving Trump’s inauguration to the rotunda,” writes Biden-Harris advance man Doug Landry, “is that all of his supporters already know how to get there.” CAPITULATION NATION: CBS is discussing settling the most nonsensical lawsuit Trump has ever filed because the settlement would be a wonderfully legal bribe. IT'S NOT A SURPRISE IMMIGRATION RAID if you tell everybody. These fascist morons couldn't stop boasting about their move against Chicago. Now it's almost off. RAMASWAMY GONE! Or as we called him, The Schwam: GONE! Hey, whaddya know, the Department of Government Efficient actually HAS cut waste! B-Block (32:39) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Rand Paul is so stupid he thinks running hoses out of the Pacific Ocean could've stopped the Firestorm. An actual major brand is introducing a new product and the catch phrase is "It's soup you can suck!" And Trump finds a new way to spray paint something that cheap flat gold color he loves while getting the name of one of his education employees wrong. C-Block (42:00) IN MEMORY OF BOB UECKER: The second worst thing about getting old – not VERY old, just old-old – is having to watch nearly all those older than you who, accepted in what was their field and then became theirs and yours – pass on. Especially when they are the widely beloved standard-setters of those fields like Bob Uecker.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
