RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot Scott kick off Episode 390 with an unexpected detour into horse sanctuary volunteer orientation before turning their attention to a Mariners club desperately in need of the All-Star break after another miserable road trip. They discuss Seattle's lone All-Star representative Randy Arozarena, and the struggling offense before shifting to the biggest local sports story of the week: the $9.6 billion sale of the Seahawks to the Khosla family. Mitch and Brady Farkas survey a Mariners club that limps into the All-Star break below .500 after another frustrating road trip, debating whether an 8-2 finale provides any real optimism. The conversation centers on the anticipated returns of Julio Rodríguez and Brendan Donovan, and the uncomfortable reality that Seattle's season ultimately hinges on Cal Raleigh. Fresh off attending nine matches across the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Matt "Stretch" Johnson joins Mitch for one final World Cup recap as the pair dissect the United States' disappointing 4-1 loss to Belgium. The conversation explores the goalkeeper's costly mistakes, the overall trajectory of the U.S. program heading toward 2030, and why the next World Cup in Spain, Portugal, and Morocco should feature many of the same American stars. A miserable Mariners sweep in Miami sends Mitch and Danny O'Neil down one of the show's most delightfully bizarre rabbit holes, as baseball takes a backseat to an extended discussion about uneven sideburns, proper barbershop etiquette, London's luxurious hot-towel shaves, ear-hair removal by flame, and Mitch's childhood memories of his mother singeing stray chicken hairs with a blowtorch before dinner. The conversation eventually pivots to a sobering examination of former Seahawk Chris Johnson's ALS diagnosis, prompting a thoughtful debate over football's long-term health risks.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Danny O'Neil | Host, The Dang Apostrophe Matt "Stretch" Johnson | Longtime Seattle Sports Radio Personality   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | New Owners, Old Problems, And Another Round of Birthday Trivia 27:54 | Mariners No-Table [Brady Farkas]: All-Star Break Can't Come Soon Enough 53:12 | Matt "Stretch" Johnson: The World Cup Hangover…What Comes Next? 1:16:04 | Danny O'Neil: Sideburns, Blowtorches…and Football's Uncomfortable Truth 1:36:38 | Other Stuff: Justin Verlander retirement, Ace Reese drafted by the Mariners, Ace Reese vs. Cade Anderson in college, Aaron Donald comeback rumors, Jacob Tobey fired by the Spurs, Marshawn Kneeland diagnosed with CTE, Conor McGregor injured in UFC return, Tennessee couple celebrates 80 years of marriage with weekly McDonald's breakfasts.

Just by bringing up Colt Emerson on Sunday, the pieces are in motion… What happens when Brendan Donovan comes back? What happens when Cal comes back? Has Jhonny Pereda already surpassed Mitch Garver?
