He shares behind-the-scenes stories of playing with Jose Reyes and David Wright, reflects on his 2014 trade from the Mets, and reveals what he's doing now in commercial real estate. Plus — an unbelievable childhood encounter with Joe DiMaggio you have to hear.

Enter the world of the knuckleball and its specialized lingo: drag crisis, loop de loop, and dreaded forward roll. The knuckleball pitch is dying out in baseball, but Chris Nowlin still teaches it and, importantly, still throws it with the lowest rotation on earth today. He discusses here how to throw it, why it's effective, and why it's so darn hard to throw consistently. He also offers guidance on identifying potential knuckleballers, strength training, arm protection, and being a big-league pitcher in general, along with a bit of life advice. We also discuss Matt Waldron of the Padres along with other knuckleballers: Tim Wakefield, Phil Niekro, RA Dickey, and Charlie Hough. And finally, Chris gives us some thoughts on the current approach to pitching in the MLB right now and where we might be headed. An informative and insightful episode.Chris Nowlin's website:https://knuckleballnation.com/Socials:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn3xKAXGUrTeWW62_u-VtSgXTwitter: @KnuckNationInsta: @KnuckNationShow NotesThoughts?

During the early hours of May 3rd, 22-year-old Logan Federico was asleep at her home in Columbia, South Carolina, when someone broke in and fatally shot her. Her family was outraged to learn this senseless crime was committed by a man who had almost 40 arrests spanning over a decade. Even worse, new information has come to light showing a fingerprint mishap was likely the reason 30-year-old Alexander Dickey was roaming free to kill instead of being behind bars. Fox News reporter Danamarie Nicholl breaks down the failures made within the criminal justice system that allowed Dickey to walk free. She also shares what Logan's father, Stephen Federico, told her about this injustice and how he's advocating for change, so this won't happen again.
