This week @WFANTRADES joins the podcast to go over the Francesa Con event at Irving Plaza this past weekend. Mike Francesa and Chris Russo were back together for this raucous event and we break down all the festivities that only a Mike and the Mad Dog Reunion could provide. Plus I pay penance for no podcasts last week. Do you forgive me? Ok, well, can you to try to forgive me? We also touch on the CBS Selection show, the UConn resurgence, and the awful ideas of Daniel Snyder when it comes the Redskins potential new stadium, plus much more!

Katie Baker, formerly of Deadspin and Grantland and Mike Francesa fan, joins the Thursday Talk podcast to discuss topics from all over the map. We go over her beginnings in a career that started in finance and somehow ended up in sportswriting and contributing to Deadspin Katie explains her love of hockey, but maybe notso much the fans all the time. She describes the process involved with teaming up with Bill SImmons and being a Grantland staff writer. We go over the beauty that is the movie, "Dazed and Confused" and how it capitulates someone or something from high school. But of course, we tackle her love for Mike Francesa and the Mike and the Mad Dog program. She describes what FrancesaCon 2 was like last year and reveals her sorrow for not being in attendance at FrancesaCon 3. Perhaps at FrancesaCon 4?

n a special podcast, Jared (@wfantrades) joins the podcast to discuss the big announcement by old WFAN batterymates Mike Francesa and Chris Russo for the one night only at Radio City Music Hall. There will be celebrities and musicians! Will Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie attend? We get into the birth of Mike Francesa fanboys with themikefrancesa.com board and the evolution to Mongo Nation. We both give our memories of FrancesaCon and the ridiculousness that ensued there. and how Mongos united in a way the world could only dream. We then wildly speculate what this big announcement means for FrancesaCon and if this Radio City one time deal is the just the creation of something bigger. Perhaps a reunion of Mike and the Mad Dog ???!!! Follow on Twitter @brianbuck13 and @redticketblues Listen on iTunes, Stitcher, TuneIn, Podbean, Google Play, Spotify and other fine podcasting venues
