We present to you Part 2 of  "The Smörgåsbord"This episode we will be reviewing even more players that are not in the Baseball Hall of Fame, but were suggested by folks on social media as players who should have their case reviewed. We took a look at each player and gave our thoughts on their case. Do we think any of them were oversights and should be in the HOF? Have a listen won't you? This is our second set of players and we will review even more in the future.Each player can be found at the timestamp below:Dock Ellis: 02:11Willie Randolph: 09:53Vern Stephens: 19:07Jimmy Wynn: 26:40Jim Edmonds: 36:27Wes Ferrell: 47:03Don Mattingly: 54:50

In an All-Star career, Dock Ellis managed to win a World Series, pitch a no-hitter on LSD, hit every batter that came to the plate in a game and set a clubhouse on fire. But for every bit of craziness, Ellis was also ahead of his time as a spokesperson on a range of issues from free agency to racism while devoting his life to combating alcohol and drug abuse. Titus O'Reily and Mick Molloy look at the complex career of one of the most interesting athletes of all time. If you’d like more Sports Bizarre, become a member of Bizarre Plus.

This Week on Talkin' TV, Jackie and MJ almost derail everything by tryin' to talk books, including the book on which Six Schizophrenic Brothers was based, but Holden brings it back to the screen with his review of Eli Roth's "Thanksgiving" and then it comes back to the 1993 Pauly Shore classic "Son In Law" as all paths in life do.  Jackie makes a plea to the fans for some Christmas horror movie recommendations, and gives her thumbs up to "Emperor's New Groove" after not seeing it during her rebellious teen years. Max brings the dark takes of Florida nationwide with "It's Florida, Man" which gives a hilarious and horrifying visual reminder of how stupid people truly are, Jackie finally watched the movie "Bad Trip" and enjoyed it far more than she expected despite her hatred of pranks, Holden chunkin' up the new Olivia Rodrigo: GUTS World Tour and is watching a baseball documentary, which instantly makes Jackie audibly upset, unless it's the one about Dock Ellis pitching a 0 hitter on acid. MJ admits they owe Martha Stewart an apology after watching "Maratha", Jackie finished Penguin and having no Bats convinces the Bat-Burnt out Holden to give Penguin a chance, Jackie goes back to Taskmaster and Taskmaster Jr, plus this week of Talkin' TV wraps up with a journey back into the crypt of sadness known as the Golden Bachelorette! Thanksgiving - NetflixEmperor's New Groove - Disney+It's Florida, Man - MaxBad Trip - NetflixThe Comeback: 2004 Boston Red Sox - NetflixNo No: A Dockumentary - PeacockMartha - NetflixPenguin - MaxTaskmaster Series 17- Youtube, Channel 1Junior Taskmaster - Youtube, Channel 1Golden Bachelorette - Hulu Want even more Page 7?

The enduring history of baseball is filled with accomplishments that strain credulity, and force us to rethink the limits of human potential. Whether it's Babe Ruth calling his shot in the 1932 World Series vs the Cubs, or Reggie Jackson hitting three homeruns on three swings in the 1977 World Series, or Nolan Ryan tossing no-hitters in his 40's. But on June 12th, 1970, Pirates pitcher Dock Ellis, does the impossible when he throws a no-hitter, while under the influence of LSD. For those of you who have taken acid before, please explain to the people around you, who have never done it, how hard that is to do. This week we take a long strange trip, and do a deep dive into this amazing story. #DockEllis #PittsburghPirates #WillieStargell #RobertoClemente #MannySanguillen #DaveCash #SanDiegoPadres #SteveHuntz #NateColbert #JackMurphyStadium #LSD #AlFerrara

In this extended sidebar we talk about a baseball player at the absolute top of his game, one of the hardest feats in the game of baseball, why he was able to pull it off under the influence of LSD - and more importantly, the incredible work he did once his baseball career was behind him.

July 16 1853 - The New York Clipper publishes what is believed to be the first tabulated boxscore of a baseball game. The Knickerbocker Base Ball Club of New York defeated the Gotham Club 21-12 on July 5 July 16 1887 - Born on this day, Shoeless Joe Jackson, the best MLB not in the Hall of Fame. His swing was so good, folk lure says Babe Ruth copied it. Jackson, was implicated in the 1919 Black Sox scandal as part of the 8 men through the World Series. Jackson has the second highest career batting average in MLB history at .356July 16 1897 - At the age of 45, Chicago's Cap Anson becomes the first major leaguer to amass 3,000 hits when he singles off Baltimore's George Blackburn. As a matter of fact, it took years for the figure filberts of baseball to come to Anson's "official" stats. Anson played from 1876-97 and his hit total changed over time, soaring as high as 3,509 and as low as 2,995 as researchers dissected box scores and refigured statistics. Finally, Total Baseball, the official encyclopedia of the game, listed his total hits at 3,081.On July 16, 1941, New York Yankees outfielder Joe DiMaggio goes 3-for-4 to extend his hitting streak to a major league record 56 games.

On July 16, 1970, the Pittsburgh Pirates play their first game in Three Rivers Stadium, the successor to Forbes Field. Dock Ellis throws the first pitch in the new stadium and future Hall of Famer Willie Stargell rips a home run for the Bucs, who lose the game to the Cincinnati Reds, 3-2.

Hour 2 - Hall of Famer Ray Didinger describes presenting Tommy McDonald into the Pro Football Hall of Fame as 'my knees were shaking,' and a crazy story behind Dock Ellis' famous no hitter in 1970. 

This episode Darren and Jordan take you through the trippy history of Pittsburgh Pirate Dock Ellis who threw a no hitter while high on LSD.

December 19th Show Notes December 19, 1934 – The New York Yankees send five players to the San Francisco Seals of the Pacific Coast League as partial compensation for the acquisition of Joe DiMaggio. The Yankees had previously paid $25,000 for the future Hall of Famer. DiMaggio will play one more season in the PCL before reporting to the Yankees in 1936. In ‘36, DiMaggio will hit .323 with 125 RBIs in helping the Yankees to a World Series title. December 19, 1976 — A single-engine Piper Cherokee plane crashes into the upper deck of Baltimore's Memorial Stadium, home of the Orioles, injuring the pilot and three others. Minutes prior to the mishap, the plane had buzzed the stadium during the final moments of the Steelers' playoff victory over the Colts.   The pilot of the Piper Cherokee was 33-year-old Donald Kroner. Kroner served three months of a two-year sentence for malicious destruction of property and violation of aviation ordinances. Kroner had been arrested prior to the Stadium incident for making threats against former Colt Bill Pellington. This included Kroner being accused of dropping a bottle and toilet paper from his plane onto the roof of Pellington's Timonium restaurant. According to news reports, Kroner was upset over being thrown out of the restaurant. Kroner died in 2013. Kroner had been fired as an MTA bus driver the day before the crash. He also had been a flight instructor and, according to some accounts, had worked as an air traffic controller. In 1980, Kroner was charged with stealing a Greyhound bus from Dulles International Airport. December 19, 1990 — At a press conference, Tiger management and WJR announce 1991 will be Ernie Harwell's 32nd and final season in the broadcast booth. The dismissal of the Motor City's popular play-by-play announcer starts a furor among fans, which includes a threatened boycott of Domino's Pizza, a business of club owner Tom Monaghan, and the rise of the slogan, “Say It Ain't So, Bo”, which appears on bumper stickers and T-shirts all over Detroit, referring to Bo Schembechler, the team president and former University of Michigan football coach. "[Harwell's situation is] not going to change no matter how much clamor is made over it," said team president Bo Schembechler. The situation caused outrage so much that some made threats of violence against Schembechler. Some, such as Mitch Albom, blamed the situation causing as much negative feeling as it did on WJR executive Jim Long who was the one who pushed the quick, no severance pay removal of Harwell.[6] The movement in favor of keeping Harwell was so strong that even billboards in favor of his remaining were put up.[7] Rick Rizzs was hired away from the Seattle Mariners to replace Harwell in 1992, teaming with Bob Rathbun. Harwell worked a part-time schedule for the California Angels in 1992. The following year, the Tigers were purchased by Mike Ilitch, who made it one of his first priorities to bring Harwell back. In 1993, Harwell teamed with Rizzs and Rathbun on the WJR broadcasts, calling play-by-play of the middle innings in each game. From 1994 to 1998, Harwell called television broadcasts for the Tigers on PASS Sports and later WKBD-TV. In 1999, he resumed full-time radio duties with the team, swapping roles with Frank Beckmann (who had replaced Rizzs in the radio booth following the 1994 season), teaming with analyst Jim Price, and continuing in that role even as the team's radio rights changed from WJR to WXYT in 2001. During spring training in 2002, Harwell announced that he would retire at the end of the season; his final broadcast came on September 29, 2002. Dan Dickerson, who had joined Harwell and Price in 2000, took over as the Tigers' lead radio voice. Died: December 19, 2008 in Los Angeles, CA Dock Ellis, a solid pitcher for the Bucs, is best known for his performance on June 12, 1970, when he would forever etch his name in major league baseball history. That night Dock, despite the fact he walked eight batters, no-hit the San Diego Padres 2-0 on the strength of two Willie Stargell home runs. Also that night, which he admitted later on, was the fact that Ellis pitched his gem while on LSD. Welcome to the wild and bizarre world of Dock Ellis. He had a 14-3 record at the 1971 All-Star break, but famously said baseball wouldn't let two soul brothers – he and Vida Blue – start the AS game. Ellis ended up surrendering Reggie Jackson's titanic blast at Tiger Stadium. He was also the starter when the Pirates become the first team to start 9 black players. Ellis, never one to avoid controversy, also hit the first three Reds on May 1, 1974 because he felt his team was lackluster. Ellis will eventually end up a Yankee in ‘76 and win comeback player of year after winning 17 games. Doc Finished up with 138 wins vs. 119 loses and a 3.46 ERA. In 1955, he broke Ty Cobb's record to become the youngest player to win a batting title. Al Kaline was one day younger in 1955 than Cobb had been in 1907, when “The Georgia Peach” won his first title. Despite a history of injuries, he tied Tris Speaker's record of 100+ games in the outfield for 19+ seasons. A future Hall of Famer, Kaline was born on December 19, 1934, in Baltimore, Maryland. In his 22-year career (1953-1974), the outstanding right fielder had 3007 hits, 399 HR, 1582 RBI, 1622 runs, .297 BA, .376 OBP, .480 Slg., & .855 OPS. In the 1968 World Series, Kaline batted .379 with 11 hits, which included two home runs.   Playing his entire career with the Detroit Tigers, his nickname was Mr. Tiger. He was an All-Star in 15 seasons, won 10 Gold Glove Awards, won a batting title in 1955, and was a member of the 1968 World Series champions. His uniform #6 is retired by the Tigers. He was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1980 (88.3% on the 1st ballot).

We're back and it's the Thanksgiving episode of Baseball Is Dead! We got the numbers in and it looks like we retained about 90% of our audience from the previous show which is AMAZING! Thank you to all the listeners who rode with us this year and we can't wait to take it to the next level! Just like everyone predicted, the Angels have been the most active team in the offseason to this point. Our Angels correspondent joins the pod to talk some Halos to open it up. Joey dropped a new video on Dock Ellis and his infamous no-hitter on LSD which leads us to a discussion about players performing while on drugs. Aaron Judge is in San Fransisco this week and reportedly will meet with the Giants. We're breaking down the very scripted video that made its way onto social media of Judge being spotted in a SF hotel. We're also comparing his quotes about free agency to other free agents in baseball. Alek Manoah said Gerrit Cole is the worst cheater in baseball history and we're going down the list of cheaters to see if anyone is worse than Cole. Albert Pujols won Comeback Player of the Year and Jared thinks Mark Appel deserved it. Joey does not. We make some predictions about Perfect Game balls and talk about Jeremy Peña giving out dive thru orders after winning the World Series. Happy Thanksgiving!

In an All-Star career, Dock Ellis managed to win a World Series, pitch a no-hitter on LSD, hit every batter that came to the plate in a game and set a clubhouse on fire. But for every bit of craziness, Ellis was also ahead of his time as a spokesperson on a range of issues from free agency to racism while devoting his life to combating alcohol and drug abuse. Titus O'Reily and Mick Molloy look at the complex career of one of the most interesting athletes of all time. Follow Sports Bizarre on: Instagram Facebook Twitter TikTok YouTube    

Two-time World Series champion and three-time All-Star Manny Sanguillén joins the boys to talk about how he went from playing baseball in the streets of Panama to being the beloved face of a BBQ restaurant in Pittsburgh, shares what it was like being part of Major League Baseball's first all-black and Latino lineup, recalls his favorite moment as a big leaguer and, of course, fondly remembers his close relationships with both Dock Ellis and Roberto Clemente. Episode originally aired January 1, 2019

Editor's note: During the episode, we talked about Chrystal's ode to dad bods post, which had yet to run at the time of recording. We decided to just put it here instead of as a separate post, because why make things more complicated than they need to be? We already have an entire podcast devoted to doing that. Also, here's the time Creed played Thanksgiving for some reason.You wouldn't see Nickelback doing that, what with the being Canadian and with Chad Kroeger being too busy having all that sex. Anyway, on to the newsletter portion of today's program… which is free today as we're giddy about the Mets taking four of five from Atlanta, but also please consider a paid subscription to support the folks bringing you fun stuff here!Project ShaqBox trivia: Yesterday, Jacob deGrom combined with Joely Rodriguez and Edwin Díaz to strike out 19 Atlanta hitters, tying Tom Seaver and David Cone in individual efforts for the most K's by Mets pitchers in a nine-inning game. Which team did Seaver's game, a 2-1 victory on a Wednesday afternoon in April at Shea, come against… and why wasn't it that team's most notable time that season being on the short end of a historic pitching performance?An Ode To Dad BodsBy Chrystal O'KeefeThe great Lizzo once sang, “I like big boys, itty bitty boys,” and that resonated with me. I know women often get criticized for only enjoying the tight pants and baseball butts, and I'm not here to dispel that rumor. Some, like myself, live and breathe baseball, but also enjoy the different body types of players. Sure, Starling Marte has abs of steel. Yes, Jacob deGrom could probably be a Calvin Klein model. Does Fransisco Lindor remind me of a young Prince Rogers Nelson, oozing sex appeal? Hell yes. Any hot blooded, man-loving person would surely go for that, I mean, have you seen Michael Kopech? Some of these baseball players are buff, or clearly prioritized squats and leg day in the offseason. And that's great. But what about the normal-looking guys that weren't sculpted by the gods? Dad bods have been a thing for quite some time now, even in the baseball world. It's one of the few sports that allows for multiple body types, and I appreciate that. When the Mets acquired Daniel Vogelbach, I was thrilled. Not only because I knew the power he brings, as someone that is very familiar with the Pirates, but also as someone that appreciates his body type.  With Pete Alonso and Daniel Vogelbach often going back to back in the lineup, I'm thrilled to see peak athletic performances from guys that look like they can smash some ribs, chug a beer, and immediately walk out of the dugout and tattoo a ball out into the concourse. Alonso is known for being meaty, and the video of his shirt being ripped off after a bases loaded walk to win the game, showcasing an immaculate dad bod is one of the many reasons I love baseball. (I hope no one goes through my Google searches for this piece.) Pete Alonso Joins MLB Network SHIRTLESSIt's time to normalize the dad bod in baseball. It's time to appreciate Prince Fielder, Johnny Cueto, Yasmani Grandal, Bartolo “Big Sexy” Colon, CC Sabathia, Lance Lynn, Pete Alonso, Daniel Vogelbach, and the OG dad bod, Babe Ruth. If you're reading this, ESPN, please make one of the above mentioned players the cover of the Body Issue. I promise there is an audience of appreciative dad-bod loving people out here.And even more after yesterday.Trivia answer: On April 22, 1970, an Al Ferrara homer and Dave Campbell single were all that stood between Seaver having a 19-strikeout game and Seaver having a 19-strikeout no-hitter. But the San Diego Padres had even more trouble connecting two months later, on June 12, when they drew eight walks in a game against the Pirates, but got no-hit by Dock Ellis, famously under the influence of LSD for the gem.

Leroy & Maz discuss the undercurrent of exchange between humans when we attempt to use language as a medium of interpersonal communication. We also break down LSD, its typical function when ingested by humans, and Dock Ellis.

My guest today is North Carolina based singer and songwriter, Chuck Brodsky. I first heard about Chuck through our mutual friend, Jeff Lionz. Jeff, who knows about my undying love for baseball, sent me a couple of Chuck's CD's (The Baseball Ballads and The Baseball Ballads 2) in the mail. I put them both in my car and listened on drives for the next two months. I was taken by the stories and the amount of thought and research that was put into each lyric. In addition, all his songs seemed to give life to unsung heroes of the game. Rather than singing about any ol' no-hitter, Chuck sings about the one Dock Ellis threw on LSD. He also has a song called, "Death Row All-Stars," which is a tragic tale about how a warden in Rawlins, WY used baseball to set execution dates. Though he's a member of the Philadelphia Jewish Sports Hall of Fame and has 22 songs in the Baseball Hall of Fame Sound Recording Library, Chuck is far from being labeled a "baseball songwriter." He's written about the hollocaust, politics, and many other topics during his monumental career that spans over three decades. (now quoting form chuckbrodsky.com) Chuck and his songs have appeared in several films and on tv. His beloved Philadelphia Phillies featured an interview with him along with his song “Whitey & Harry” in the documentary “Richie Ashburn: A Baseball Life.” The 2003 Sony Pictures release “Radio” included a cameo by Chuck as well as his closing title track. “Moe Berg: The Song” appears in the PBS film “Jews and Baseball: An American Love Story” (2010). His music has been featured on ABC's Good Morning America, NPR's All Things Considered, Dr. Demento, ESPN, PBS, and by NFL Films. Kathy Mattea's recording of Chuck's song “We Are Each Other's Angels” appears in the film “Dear Mr. Goodlife” (1998). The African Children's Choir Of Uganda also recorded the song on their "Love Is A Journey" CD. “Blow ‘em Away” has been recorded by David Wilcox and many others, and also appears on the Christine Lavin produced “Laugh Tracks.” Sports Illustrated placed "The Ballad Of Eddie Klepp" among the 25 Greatest Songs About Sports of All–Time. In April of 2019 Chuck was inducted into the Philadelphia Jewish Sports Hall Of Fame for his Baseball songwriting. (end quote from chuckbrodsky.com) Special shoutout to Kerrville Folk Festival!

This week's episode of the podcast takes a different direction than prior episodes. EstoBro takes the show solo with special guest Devors as they discuss the mysterious wonderment of psychedelics. The pair keep business as usual opening the podcast with the sports segment (4:20) discussing how Dock Ellis threw a no-hitter on LSD for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1970. They also continue the segment on "What's Wrong with Baseball?" inquiring if steroids truly saved baseball (14:35) and if cheaters will prosper, and if they will eventually be inducted into Cooperstown at the Hall of Fame (28:35). EstoBro and Devors also discuss how psychedelics have enhanced animated movies from major studios, especially Disney's Pixar and MCU (42:40). There is also the contemplation on how the same substances have made their presence is known in the video game industry (58:50). Devors shares his passion for electronic dance music (EDM) and how psychedelics have shaped the genre (62:50), and the excitement of the return of music festivals this year. Both EstoBro and Devors have had their fair share of attending music festivals, and they also contemplate what is the future of psychedelics and music (74:50). EstoBro also asks Devors about psychedelics being used in the medical community (76:45) and how years of extended research have had major breakthroughs in research by many pioneers of psychedelics. We're excited to have more guests on the podcast, and we cannot wait for Devors to come back for another great show!

"Dock, look at the paper! You have to pitch today in San Diego!"  "Nah man, I don't pitch until Friday."

Dock Ellis: One of baseball's most feared pitchers of the 1970s & the ace of the staff of the 1971 World Series Champion Pittsburgh Pirates, Dock Ellis was a character who did things his way. From throwing a no-hitter on LSD to trying to hit every batter in the rival Cincinnati Reds' lineup, Dock could never outrun his substance abuse demons during his baseball career. His post-career work counseling players and people going through addiction issues should be commended, but we are all left wondering "What Could Have Been?" regarding Dock's potential on the pitching mound.

Yes Yes to No No: A Dockumentary Dock Ellis is famous for throwing a no-hitter while high on LSD, but we find out there's more to the man than being ‘high as a Georgia pine.' A great pitcher in his own right, Ellis helped change the face of Baseball during the 60's, 70's and beyond.

In 1970, a Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher threw a no-hitter, one of the most difficult feats to accomplish in professional sports, while allegedly high on LSD. Who was this man, and was this even the most memorable story about him? Our intrepid host digs into the story of Dock Ellis.

One of the most memorable characters to ever play baseball, Dock Ellis challenged the baseball establishment, pitched a no-hitter on acid, but always had impeccable style.
