Superstitions, heartbreak, and some much-needed reason—this episode of The Fourteen Twenty Sports Bar Podcast has it all! The "Voice of Reason" Deanne joins Brent for a lively sports bar chat on quirky game day rituals, Toronto sports heartbreaks, and whether fans' traditions actually matter. From Leafs “jersey throwers” to Jays fever, the crew share laughs, debate infamous sports curses, and compare notes on who they'd most want to share a drink with at the local watering hole—Springsteen or Billy Joel, anyone? Plus, does “Frosty the Snowman” count as a real Christmas song, or is it just another winter tune?

Yet another Season 19 episode of SVU leaves the Munchie Boys scratching their heads wondering in just what world is this even occurring. Opening with an improbable YouTuber montage and having the case of the week closing with a full seven minutes of run time remaining to open the door for an SVU lyceum at a high school, this week's 13 Reasons Why-inspired episode (Season 19, Episode 4 “No Good Reason”) is operating at one of the strangest frequencies we've encountered. This one forces Adam and Josh to reckon with vlogging that makes Eighth Grade seem totally comfortable, how and when they're going to have to get a ChatSlam account for the podcast, and the murky demise of Chester Bennington and Chris Cornell.Sources:Law & Order SVU “No Good Things” Recap and Review - All Things Law and OrderNavigating the “Pink Cloud” Phase of Recovery - HealthlineMusic:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, and Summer S - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Ahead of MLB's Winter Meetings in Orlando, the Blue Jays have made a couple of moves. They have signed Cody Ponce, who was drafted in 2015 by the Brewers. He spent 5 years in the Brewers system before 3 years with the Pirates during which he never really figured it out. He then went to the Nipon League in Japan for 3 years before moving to Korea and earning MVP honours while striking out 252 batters.The Jays also outrighted Yariel Rodriguez to the minors, leaving them with two open spots on the 40-man roster.

Noah and Mason analyze the deals of Devin Willams and Dylan Cease. Also, both take a look at the Baltimore Orioles' moves in order to compete in 2026 and decide how many years a team should sign free agent Kyle Schwarber for.

Jack and Kaleb get together for the first time since the title in KC to take a look back at what went right and what went wrong for Nebraska vs Winthrop and USC Upstate. They discuss the impact of the Connor Essegian injury that will keep him out for the year and the biggest impacts it could have on the season.Plus a look at the matchup against Creighton, a game Nebraska should be favored in, and whether Nebraska can stem the tide of recent upsets in this series to continue the nation's longest winning streak.For more content like this, become a Patron today for as low as $5 a month: patreon.com/i80club | For more on Husker sports, visit huskermax.com Hosted on Acast.

Brent Gunning and Daniele Franceschi open Thursday's show by looking ahead to the Maple Leafs' road-trip finale against the Hurricanes. The boys frame tonight's clash as a clear benchmark for where the team stands, and discuss which parts of the organization (front office, coaching staff, or players) have had the most pressure lifted during this stretch. They then shift to concerns about the Olympic rink in Italy and the possibility that NHL players might not participate in the upcoming Games. After the break, Brent and Daniele react to news that Kyle Tucker visited the Blue Jays' facilities, considering what it might mean for Toronto's chances of signing him. They question whether both Bo Bichette and Tucker could realistically both be added long-term, and how missing out on Tucker would shape perceptions of the Jays' offseason.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

MLB Network's Jon Morosi (1:49) stops by the FAN Morning Show with Brent Gunning and Sho Alli to break down why fans should be excited and what this means for people like José Berríos or Trey Yesavage when the regular season arrives, and gets into the evolving closer market around baseball as well. Afterwards, Sportsnet's Shi Davidi (21:31) discusses Ponce's stuff and whether or not it will play when he returns to MLB, and what this means for other pieces of business as the Jays off-season rolls on. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

I'm seeing double here. Fourteen potential Jays starting pitchers??!?OK, OK, the Jays may not quite have quite that many rotation options—Eric Lauer is pretty clearly slated for the bullpen at this point, at the very least—but with the additions of Dylan Cease and, now, Cody Ponce, they clearly have six. (Gausman, Yesavage, Bieber, and Berríos, of course, being the others). And because of that glut, Ponce's arrival is not your typical three-year, $30 million signing of the reigning KBO MVP.And this week we've jumped on mic a day earlier than usual to talk all about it!FOR AN AD-FREE VERSION OF THIS—AND EVERY—EPISODE, PLUS WEEKLY BONUS SHOWS, FIND US AT patreon.com/BJHH Hosted on Acast.

After a supremely messed up Munchies' Choice episode last week, we settled back into the late season doldrums with an SVU that seems deadset on being racist against both Italians and West Virginians while wallowing in a domestic violence case that ends badly in a bathtub. Is it believable that the character who meets his maker would have been taking a bath? Were there more inventive or contemporary ways to take out the abuser? Probably not, but why focus on wanting this ep to make sense? Fin is also left to pick up the pieces from his S21 officer-involved shooting, which means that the Munchie Boys have to wade back into the morass of semi-serialized procedurals to watch as the pieces are picked up from a story from which we probably could have been spared.Music:Divorcio Suave - “Munchy Business”Thanks to our gracious Munchies on Patreon: Jeremy S, Jaclyn O, Amy Z, Diana R, Tony B, Barry W, Drew D, Nicky R, Stuart, Jacqi B, Natalie T, Robyn S, Amy A, Sean M, Jay S, Briley O, Asteria K, Suzanne B, Tim Y, John P, John W, Elia S, Rebecca B, Lily, Sarah L, Melsa A, Alyssa C, Johnathon M, Tiffany C, Brian B, Whitney C, Alex, Jannicke HS, Erin M, Florina C, Melissa H, Olivia, Holly F, Karina H, Zak B, Karyn R, and Summer S - y'all are the best!Be a Munchie, too!

Guests: Toronto Star baseball columnist Gregor Chisholm, Canadian Baseball League commissioner Ted Kalnins     The Blue Jays have made their first big move of the off-season, agreeing to a seven-year, $210 million (US) contract with starting pitcher Dylan Cease - the biggest contract they've given to a free agent in franchise history. We're joined by Gregor Chisholm, my partner on the Star's baseball beat, to talk about the deal and what it means as the Jays go into their first off-season as pennant winners in over 30 years. And about Cease and what he brings to the team as well. Also, Ted Kalnins talks about what used to be the semi-pro Intercounty Baseball League, now re-branded as the Canadian Baseball League, one that's fully professional. Plus, we open up the mailbag at deepleftfield@thestar.ca!

Dylan Cease has reportedly signed a seven-year, $210 million deal with the Blue Jays! Sho Alli and Daniele Franceschi take your calls and texts, and get into what this means for the team's rotation both next season and in the long-term - what it could look like with Cease pitching in front of a stellar Jays defence? Plus, they discuss what this means for the rest of the offseason - could more big money deals still be in the cards moving forward, whether that's Bo Bichette or someone else? The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

The offseason didn't take a warm-up lap — it jumped straight into real movement. Episode 120 starts with two Blind Rankings games: Devin puts together eight random free-agent tag teams, pairing two available players who would be a fun combo for any club to sign together, while Steve works through eight free-agent ballpark fits to see which hypothetical landing spots match the player's style, strengths, or vibe the best. No context, no reshuffling — just reaction. We also dig into the Nimmo–Semien trade, one of the more surprising one-for-one swaps in recent years. The Mets send Brandon Nimmo (plus $5M) to Texas for Marcus Semien, reshaping both teams in a pretty direct way. We look at why Nimmo approved the deal, how the Rangers shift their outfield with Carter and Langford, and why Semien fits exactly what the Mets want to emphasize — defense, reliability, and a more balanced lineup. It also raises real questions about New York's infield picture, from Jeff McNeil's role to Brett Baty to how soon Jett Williams forces his way into a spot. From there, we get into Sonny Gray's move to the Red Sox — a deal that accelerates Boston's push toward a stabilized, playoff-ready rotation — and Toronto's massive swing for Dylan Cease, handing out a franchise-record seven-year, $210 million contract to anchor the next era of the Jays' staff. And then there's Hal Steinbrenner, who stirred the week even further by suggesting the Yankees didn't turn a profit in 2025 and that reducing payroll would be “ideal.” We break down why those comments landed poorly, how they contrast with the Yankees' global financial footprint, and what it means for their offseason strategy. Once the trade, signing, and ownership reaction breaks wrap, it's Blind Rankings time: Devin's Free Agent Tag Teams: Two random free agents at a time, paired together like a package deal — who makes the best duo a team could sign this winter? Steve's Free Agent Ballpark Fits: Eight different free agents matched with eight different ballparks — which pairing feels right, and which ones fall flat? We close things out by talking about how this early wave of moves — the Nimmo–Semien blockbuster, Sonny Gray to Boston, the Cease mega-deal, and Hal's payroll posture — might shift the broader free-agent picture, especially for hitters like Pete Alonso, Kyle Tucker, and Cody Bellinger.

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning start Thursday morning celebrating a fantastic night in Toronto sports!
