Season four of Music in the Minor League is here! For our episode of the season, we caught up with Masaya Tamegai of The Houston Collective. The Houston Collective is an umbrella for Long River Sessions, KPFT Sessions, The Cultivated Beat and a collection of local podcasts, including this one. Masaya is putting the final touches on his website https://www.thehoustoncollective.com which contains a web TV station, a web radio station and will eventually host band profiles and more for Houston area bands. You can find links to everyone who has appeared on the shows and watch/listen to their performances. It's really a huge asset to the Houston music scene. We hope you'll check it out and take some time to listen in to the interview where we discuss The Houston Collective, challenges facing bands these day and what Masaya's future goals are with the website and his programming.

The MLB is starting to implement its data collection and standardization rules to the MiLB. There are many pros and cons to doing this. Adding in these rules could be a great addition for the media surrounding the MiLB, but it could also make investments useless at the same time. The minors used to be a place for testing and growth, but how will these rules getting added change that? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ben Lindbergh, Meg Rowley, and Ben Clemens banter about the Astros signing Tatsuya Imai to a smaller-than-expected deal.

Mike's out, so naturally Mookie immediately starts messing with the background, and somehow that becomes a recurring issue all night. We kick things off with beer intros before diving headfirst into the Joe Burrow discourse. Is he hinting at retirement, or is he just completely done with Cincinnati? Fans don't seem especially sympathetic, especially when the Bengals once again look like one of the most dysfunctional franchises in the league, capped off by violating NFL policy and forcing fans to shovel snow out of their own seats before getting shut out by Baltimore. Things spiral from there. Patrick Mahomes blows out his knee, the Tom Brady comparisons come fast, and we try to figure out where the Chiefs go from here, including which NFC team Mahomes might randomly win a Super Bowl with a decade from now. With Mahomes, Burrow, and likely Lamar Jackson out of the picture, we ask the uncomfortable question: is this finally Josh Allen's year? Somewhere in the middle of all that, Phillip Rivers comes out of retirement, looks terrible throwing the football, still scores a touchdown, and somehow drags us into a full Hall of Fame debate, complete with conspiracy theories, Colin Kaepernick questions, and a Sip/Chug/Drainpour breakdown of why Rivers actually came back (insurance money, resume padding, or escaping his kids). We also get into the Bills releasing Blizzard Brew, a beer literally made from snow at Highmark Stadium, LaKeith Stanfield being cast as Dennis Rodman in a Vegas disappearance movie, and a minor league hockey team fully committing to chaos with a “Birds Aren't Real” rebrand. There are…a lot of CFB26 clips. Too many, honestly. Chapters: 00:00:00 Introduction | Mookie messes with background since Mike's out 00:04:05 Beer Intros 00:10:01 Is Joe Burrow going to retire? Or does he just want out of Cincinnati? 00:17:48 Phillip Rivers starts for the Colts and, despite looking horrible throwing the ball, still had a tuddy and a chance to win 00:18:57 Nobody really feels bad for Burrow, so his complaints aren't getting him anywhere with fans 00:22:09 Mike gets angry at the background 00:24:11 The Bengals are looking at a fine for not clearing snow off the seats prior to playing Baltimore 00:31:05 The Brown family is never selling the Bengals 00:37:16 Patrick Mahomes blows out his knee and everyone is making the Tom Brady comparisons 00:41:20 Where do the Chiefs go from here? 00:44:37 If Patrick Mahomes is truly following the Tom Brady path, which NFC team does he end winning a Super Bowl with in a decade? 00:49:10 Mookie drops a CFB26 clip 00:49:36 With Mahomes and Burrow (and likely Lamar) eliminated, is it Josh Allen's year? 00:52:19 Current Super Bowl odds 00:56:10 Does Phillip Rivers deserve HOF consideration after coming back to the Colts? 00:59:28 Mookie drops another CFB26 clip 01:00:47 The Bills and Bud Light partner for Blizzard Brew, a beer made with the snow that fell at Highmark Stadium 01:06:53 Another Mookie CFB26 clip 01:08:09 Conspiracy theories about WHY Phillip Rivers came out of retirement to play for the Colts 01:12:32 Did anyone even check with Colin Kaepernick before calling Rivers? 01:13:40 Sip, Chug, Drainpour - Phillip Rivers Motivation For Coming Back: needs the insurance, pad his HOF resume, just wants to get away from his kids 01:16:20 Seriously, Mookie. Enough with the CFB26 clilps 01:17:26 How does Phillip Rivers even relate to his current teammates? 01:21:30 Why are there more CFB26 clips, Mookie?! 01:22:41 LaKeith Stanfield is set to play Dennis Rodman in a movie about Rodman's disappearance mid-season to Vegas 01:29:33 Minor League hockey team hosts a "Birds Aren't Real" night and rebrands as the Surveillance Swans for the night 01:30:49 Should a minor league hockey team do a magic night to bring in more black fans? 01:35:26 Beer recaps 01:37:20 This was a show 01:37:30 Outro #NFL #JoeBurrow #PatrickMahomes #JoshAllen #Bengals #Chiefs #Bills #SportsPodcast #CraftBrewedSports

Welcome to the episode 75 of Music in the Minor League! This episode brings us to the end of season 3! We hope you've enjoyed the ride so far. To close out the year, we went all the way to New Jersey for a conversation with Mourning Coffee.

It was a great way to close out the year and we look forward to watching this project grow over the year. We're sure you will, too!

Like other professional sports, it has become a big-money game, attracting owners looking to cash in on rising team values. One Central Valley city has witnessed what that big-money game looks like firsthand, losing its longtime Single-A team.

MLB Pipeline prospect analyst and reporter Jonathan Mayo visits the Jack Vita Show to recap the 2025 Arizona Fall League season. Jonathan has worked at MLB.com since 1999, and is the author of the 2023 book Smart, Wrong, and Lucky: The Origin Stories of Baseball's Unexpected Stars. The Arizona Fall League just wrapped up its 33rd season, with the Surprise Saguaros winning their third championship in four years. Jonathan spent two weeks this fall in Arizona and got a good look at this year's crop of talent. Which players were he and Jack most impressed by? Was Kevin McGonigle, MLB Pipeline's no. 2 overall prospect, truly the best player competing in AFL this year? Who were some of the other best prospects that played in Arizona this fall? Who were some of this year's under-the-radar prospects? Who were some guys who were not in the Top 100 coming into the AFL season, that had a nice showing in the desert, and might move into the next Top 100 rankings (coming in January)? Lastly, how do the Surprise Saguaros keep doing it? What sets them apart from the rest of the league? The Saguaros have appeared in six straight AFL Championship games, and have won the Championship three times over the last four years. Are they the team of the 2020s? Pick up a copy of Jonathan's book, Smart, Wrong, and Lucky: The Origin Stories of Baseball's Unexpected Stars, and check out his new podcast, Something Worth Saving! You can follow him on Twitter (@JonathanMayo) and Instagram (@jonathanmayob3).

Welcome to episode 73 of Music in the Minor League! This week we are joined by Nash Daniels. Nash is a singer-songwriter based in Bryan, TX. We met him back in 2020 when he was performing as Kerosene Pipedream. Last year, he started HowdyFest, which is a music festival on Thanksgiving weekend at The 101 in Bryan. This year, the festival is going two days with many great artists from Texas and beyond. We were stoked to sit down and hear about Nash's path in music, what led to starting HowdyFest and what keeps him working on new songs. To close out the episode, we added our upcoming single Lost in the Static as the closing song. It'll be out as a lyric video on Friday and on streaming the following Friday.

Welcome to episode 69 of Music in the Minor League! We're back after a break spent finishing up the album, playing some benefits and preparing for a month-long break from shows. It was good to get some time away, but we missed talking music with folks. To celebrate our landmark 69th episode, we could only think of one person to talk to. That person was Howell Windham (aka Howell Kuache) of Houston folk-rock-punk band Tekuache. You may recognize Howell from this prior band, Houston-area legends: Blackgrass Gospel.

In today's episode, he shares some stories from previous years at the Arizona Fall League. He gives a quick rundown of what fans can expect from AFL, and why they should follow along online, and make a trip to Arizona for the AFL experience. This is Jack's third year on-scene at the Arizona Fall League. Last year, he provided coverage of Philadelphia Phillies top pitching prospect Andrew Painter for The Philadelphia Inquirer. This year, he plans to pick up freelance work for other outlets, covering prospects participating in AFL. The Fall League has become a favorite for Jack, and he shares why it's one of the best hidden gems in sports. Jim provides a look at what prospects fans should keep an eye on in the Arizona Fall League this year. This year's AFL crop features eleven players from MLB Pipeline's Top 100 prospects list: Kevin McGonigle (no. 2), Sebastian Walcott (no. 6), Josue De Paula (no. 13), Braden Montgomery (no. 35), Alfredo Duno (no. 48), Charlie Condon (no. 61), Blake Mitchell (no. 62), Jonny Farmelo (no. 75), Rhett Lowder, (no. 80), Hagen Smith (no. 88) and Cam Collier (no. 94). Jim also discusses under-the-radar prospects that could break out this year in the AFL. Last year, Caleb Durbin won AFL Breakout Player of the Year. Now, he's a key cog in the Milwaukee Brewers' potent lineup, as the club pushes for its first World Series in franchise history. Later, Jim shares stories of Tim Tebow and Kyle Schwarber participating in the Fall League. Both played in the AFL in 2016. It's a crash course in AFL that you certainly will NOT want to miss!

https://teachhoops.com/ Back when my coaching whistle was brand new, the high school game was its own universe. It was about school pride, community rivalries, and the dream of maybe, just maybe, getting a college scholarship. The pro game was a distant galaxy—something you watched on TV, a place where giants roamed. The connection between the two was a one-way street; a kid played for his high school, went to college for four years to get tougher and smarter, and then, only if he was one of the truly blessed, got a shot at the pros. The game we taught was more structured, more focused on traditional positions. You had your back-to-the-basket center, your pure point guard, and a clear pecking order. The goal was to build a great team to win a state title, not necessarily to build a future pro's individual brand. Now, that universe has collapsed. The pro game isn't a distant star anymore; it's the sun that the entire high school solar system revolves around. The funnel from the top has inverted. NBA strategy dictates everything. Every tall kid who can walk and chew gum is working on his corner three because of the analytics-driven pro game. The "positionless basketball" you see in the league has erased traditional roles in the high school ranks—our 6'9" players are bringing the ball up the court, and our point guards are posting up. The style of play, the training methods, the offensive sets—they are all downstream from what works on the biggest stage. We're not just coaching high school basketball anymore; we're managing the earliest stage of a professional player's development pipeline. The most profound shift, however, is that the NBA is no longer waiting for players to come to them. They're coming straight to the high school gym. With pathways like the G League Ignite and Overtime Elite offering six-figure contracts, teenagers are now direct employees of professional leagues before they can even attend their senior prom. This has turned the elite level of high school hoops into a de facto minor league. The pressure has changed, too. It's not just about winning for your school; it's about draft stock, social media followers, and multi-million dollar NIL valuations. A 17-year-old's highlight reel is now a business asset. While the heart of the high school game—the teamwork, the discipline, the love of competition—is still there if you look for it, it's now wrapped in a professional package. We're living in a new era where the line between a high school phenom and a young pro has been all but erased. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
