From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): There were a lot of names flying around in one of the biggest trades of the offseason, the MacKenzie Gore deal, which is why we wanted to call on Sam Dykstra of MLB Pipeline to give us the what's what when it came to the Nationals' return for the starting pitcher. As part of long conversation with Bradfo, Sam offers his perspective on Texas sending minor-leaguers Gavin Fien, Devin Fitz-Gerald, Abimelic Ortiz, Alejandro Rosario and Yeremy Cabrera to Washington. There is also some great Travis Bazzana talk! To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

(00:00-14:19) Pre or post Bel Biv Devoe? The East Coast Family. Still trying to unpack Jackson saying he'd rather have a swirly than a wedgie. Stephen A. Smith has an idea for who the Pittsburgh Steelers should have hired as head coach. Mike Francesa did some flip flopping on Sean Payton. An overcorrection on teams going for it on fourth down.(14:27-35:47) Zach Bryan opening up his tour at The BattleDome. It's 2026, you can't say broad. The Washington Post won't be sending any beat writers to Spring Training to cover the Nationals. Ball writers covering teams. Value in being there in person. Information be damned. Paying guys to spit hot takes.(35:57-51:48) Look, Doug, it's Brody. Brody's loving some Billiken basketball. Making the rankings the Jackson is too afraid to make. Mountain of a man. Everybody's been waiting on Brody's Super Bowl pick. Hoop rock talk.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle joined Papa & Silver following the Giants' addition of outfielder Harrison Bader on a two-year deal. She discusses Bader's potential to improve the club's outfield defense -- which struggled mightily in 2025 -- and how his intense personality might play in the clubhouse. She also provides insight into the recent report that the Giants pursued Washington Nationals shortstop C.J. Abrams, and what it might cost to acquire a player of that caliber and young age.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fantasy Baseball Live – January 25, 2026 – 3:00pmMicrosoft TeamsSegment 1 – News and Notes1.The Braves get bad news this week as Ha-Seong Kim suffered a hand injury and will miss at least the first half of the season. Are the Braves really going to battle with Mauricio Dubon at shortstop?a.If so, how much does his value increase?2.The White Sox finally trade Luis Roberts – moving him to the Mets IF/OF Luisangel Acuna and RHP Truman Pauleya.The deal felt a little light for me, but maybe Roberts is more famous than good, posting a sub .300 OBP the last two seasons. He did steal 33 bases in 2025. i.Does this give him a new lease with a chance to produce the 38-20 season he did in 2023, or was that just an outlier?ii.Acuna is slated to start in center field and if true, I'm assuming his draft value goes up?1.Stat line for 2026: AB, HR, SB, and BAiii.Let's compare the Mets lineup to the Dodgers.3.The Mets also acquired Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers from the Brewers for SS Jett Williams and RHP Brandon Sproat.a.WOW – huge trade as the Brewers once again move an ace pitcher with one more year of team control. However, unlike their 2024 deal to the Orioles for Corbin Burnes, they get two high-end prospects. Thoughts on the deal?b.Does Sproat start the season in the Brewers rotation? If not, when do you see him up?c.How long until Williams is in Milwaukee to either play shortstop or center field?4.The Rangers acquired MacKenzie Gore for five prospects – SS Gavin Fein, RHP Alejandro Rosario, 1B Abimelec Ortiz, SS Devin Fitz-Gerald, and OF Yeremy Cabreraa.This one is a quantity deal for the Nationals as only Ortiz is near-ready for the big leagues. What do you think of the deal?Segment 2 – Fantasy Questions of the NL WestLos Angeles Dodgers1.Andy Pages is a divisive player coming into 2026. He looked pretty good during the season, but in the playoffs, he was awful. He's the 29th outfielder off the board. Too high, too low, or just right?2.Does Dalton Rushing get enough at-bats to be rostered in 2026? His ADP is 403 (27th round).3.Hyesong Kim didn't play much last season, but is penciled into the starting second base position entering the 2026 season. Over/Under 30 home runs/stolen bases in 2026?a.His ADP is 443 – 39th second baseman off the board.4.One fallout of the Edwin Diaz signing is that Roki Sasaki will not start the season as the closer. He's listed as the Dodgers' 6th starter. He's the 79th pitcher off the board; let's call it a Top 60 pitcher. Does that feel good to you? Too high, too low?a.We will look at other pitchers going around where his is going.5.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)San Diego Padres1.Jackson Merrill – 2026 stat line – AB, HR, SB, and BA2.Ramon Laureano finally broke the stigma of not being able to hit right-handed pitching. He posted the same batting average against both arms and hit 15 of his 24 home runs against right-handed pitching. After the trade to San Diego, he kept on hitting – 9 home runs in the last two months.a.Are you buying this breakout?b.The NBFC really isn't as he's the 55th outfielder off the board.3.I think I recall you willing to take a flyer on Sung Mun Song. Is that still your take?4.Joe Musgrove will cost you an 18th-round pick. Are you interested?5.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)San Francisco Giants1.Bryce Eldridge is listed as the starting DH in San Francisco. Will this play out?a.Over/Under 400 ABs in 20262.Will Drew Gilbert get enough playing time to make a difference in 2026?3.Luis Matos hit eight home runs in 57 games last season. He makes great contact with solid exit velocity and launch angle data. There's even average speed?a.Is he a little undervalued with an ADP of 600?4.Landen Roupp (417) or Kai-Wei Teng (627). Who would you rather draft in a Draft and Hold League?5.Give me a sleeper in the organization (minor or majors)Close

Doc Walker welcomes on his Team 980 colleague Chris Russell to react to the Nationals trading MacKenzie Gore. Russell says he likes the move for Washington, believing the Nationals got a solid return for Gore and positioned themselves well as they continue to reshape the roster and build for the future.
One Nation is having a bit of a moment. Pauline Hanson’s outfit, accused by both major parties of exploiting racial anxiety over her career, has faded into irrelevance at points since she burst onto the scene in the late 1990s. But two new polls have recorded record-high primary votes for One Nation. One of them saw One Nation’s vote rise above the Coalition, which split in spectacular fashion this week, over new hate crime legislation in the wake of the Bondi massacre. The break-up of the Coalition, and the rise of One Nation, may point to a tectonic change in conservative politics. At same time, the attack at Bondi has further sapped trust in our political system as politicians have brawled in the wake of a tragedy. I’m Paul Sakkal, and you’re listening to Inside Politics, from The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald.From Parliament House this week, we recorded an interview before the Coalition split, with One Nation’s newest recruit, Nationals defector and former deputy prime minister Barnaby Joyce.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): The transaction wire might not be thick with moving and shaking by the Nationals, but that doesn't mean new president of baseball operations Paul Toboni hasn't been busy. When you're rebuilding an organization while managing some pretty big decisions, it's definitely not going to be boring. Toboni joins Bradfo to reflect on his first offseason in charge and to offer an honest assessment of where things stand regarding a MacKenzie Gore trade. There is also an outstanding food recommendation for all those going to the Super Bowl.

Politique australienne, la coalition du parti libéral et des Nationaux s'est une fois de plus officiellement dissoute. Après avoir démissionné en bloc du cabinet fantôme en solidarité avec trois collègues limogés pour avoir changé de camp sur les lois contre les discours haineux, le chef des Nationaux, David Littleproud, affirme que la Coalition a été contrainte à une « position intenable qui ne peut plus durer.»
For a second time since the election the Coalition has split. The Nationals walked out after a number of its senators crossed the floor to vote against hate speech laws this week. The Liberals and opposition leader Sussan Ley sided with the government to pass the legislation, but key Nationals raises concerns about the rushed process and the impact on free speech. So, is this a moment of real change in conservative politics and could One Nation pick up a few more members? Today, David Speers, the ABC's national political lead and host of Insiders, on how the marriage fell apart once again. Featured: David Speers, ABC national political lead

It's been a long winter, but here we are, guys, the first podcast from Life In The Peloton of the season and oh man, is it a good one. I got in the booth LIVE with Tom Southam and Luke Durbridge at the Tour Down Under to unpack the Aussie national champs, talk a little bit about the TDU, and have a look ahead to what we can expect this racing season. We kick off with the man himself, Turbo Durbo, giving us the inside line on the Aussie National Champs. If you watched the race, then you'll know Luke came pretty close to bagging himself the top step, but it didn't quite work out that way. He gives us a bit of insight into how the race unfolded and how Jayco AlUla reacted to the final result. In this month's PeloChat, Luke goes through every single Aussie in the men's World Tour bunch. From neo pros to old hands, Luke shares a bit of info and his thoughts on all the riders to see who's representing the land Down Under overseas in 2026. Southam's Talking Tactics takes a deep dive into the rest of UAE. Away from Pogačar and his Tour de France A-Team, what are the rest of the team going to do? That squad is stacked with absolute hitters, so how are they going to manage themselves and make sure everyone's happy? Tom gives us his thoughts. You know what's coming next, we round it out with a classic CommuniQuiz. We're honouring the soon-to-retire Aussie legend, Simon Clarke, with a quiz all about his awesome 17-year career. How many Grandys did he race? Which monument did he only do once? What teams has he ridden for in his pro career? You'll have to listen to find out! Guys, I'm so excited to kick off the 2026 season. I'm on the ground at the TDU picking up heads of eps with some really special riders so keep your eyes peeled for those dropping soon. Cheers, Mitch P.s.

[00:00] Introduction: The Power of Podcasting for BusinessesThis session is the third installment in a comprehensive series exploring podcasting strategies for local, regional, national, and international businesses. The central argument is that a podcast is more than just a marketing tool; when paired with a business, it becomes a win-win engine for growth. The fundamental mission of any business podcast is to educate and inform its audience, providing value that fosters loyalty and repeat engagement. However, before a business can effectively monetize its content, it must first establish a solid, discoverable presence within the vast podcasting ecosystem.2. [02:15] Foundational SEO: Is Your Podcast Discoverable?Monetization is impossible if your target audience cannot find your show. The first and most critical step for any business podcaster is to verify that their show is listed and discoverable across the podcast ecosystem. This foundational presence is the bedrock upon which all growth and revenue strategies are built. You can use the following free tools to check your podcast's visibility:• pod.link• ivy.fm• listennotes.comOnce you've confirmed your podcast is registered and accessible, you can begin to implement the core monetization strategies that this discoverability enables.3. [04:30] Three Pillars of Monetization: An OverviewThe world of podcast monetization can be complex and overwhelming. To simplify the process, this episode focuses on three primary methods that form the foundation of a sustainable revenue strategy. By understanding these core pillars, you can choose the path that best aligns with your business goals and audience. The three monetization models are:1. Advertisements2. Sponsorships3. SubscriptionsThe effectiveness of these strategies is often determined by a crucial technical decision made at the very beginning of the podcasting journey: the choice of a hosting platform.4. [06:00] Strategic Decision 1: Choosing Your Hosting PlatformSelecting a podcast host is not merely a technical detail; it is a strategic business decision that directly impacts your ability to generate revenue. It is crucial to choose a platform that is IAB (Interactive Advertising Bureau) certified, as this is often a prerequisite for receiving ads from major networks. Your hosting platform manages your RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed, which is the technology responsible for distributing your episodes to directories like Apple Podcasts and Spotify. This RSS feed is the gateway to monetization, and it contains a surprisingly powerful and often overlooked setting that directly impacts your national reach: the language selection.5. [08:45] The Underrated National SEO Tactic: Language SelectionSmall technical settings can have an outsized impact on audience reach, and the language selection within your RSS feed is a prime example for national businesses. Correctly setting your podcast's language codec is a powerful and underrated SEO tactic. For a national business operating in the United States, for instance, setting the language to English, United States signals to algorithms that your content is specifically relevant to that national audience. This simple choice places your show "within that bracket in the algorithm," because as the speaker emphasizes, "nation and language go together."6. [12:10] The 2026 Strategy: From Fleeting Reach to Lasting IntentIn a world of short-term social media metrics, the key to long-term success is building durable, evergreen assets. While a social media post can become "obsolete tomorrow," a podcast episode focused on search intent can serve an audience for years to come. The strategic goal for 2026 and beyond is to shift focus from impressions and reach to intent. As illustrated by the "how to tie a tie" analogy, intent-driven content provides a solution at the exact moment a person needs it, creating a powerful and valuable connection that builds trust and authority.7. [15:30] Data-Driven Monetization: Using Analytics to Find OpportunityMonetization should never be based on guesswork. Podcast analytics provide the data necessary to uncover specific, actionable opportunities within your listener base. By analyzing your listener data, a national business can move from broad assumptions to targeted strategies. Your analytics can answer critical questions like:• Which are the top 5 cities listening to your show?• Which states, zip codes, counties, or districts have the most listeners?• What day of the week and time of day generate the most engagement?This data is invaluable. It allows a business to strategically partner with influencers in high-engagement cities, target sponsorships to specific regions, or schedule episode releases for maximum impact, turning insights into income.8. [18:00] Monetization Models In-Depth: Profit vs. AccessibilityThe best monetization model depends on your business's goals, specifically the balance between maximizing audience access and maximizing profit margins. Each of the three primary models offers a different trade-off. While a business can choose any model, they can also be viewed as a strategic progression: using advertisements to build broad awareness, leveraging that audience for targeted sponsorships, and finally converting the most dedicated listeners into high-value subscribers.Advertisements• Accessibility: High• Profit: Low• CPM: ~$10 - $30• Analysis: This model is ideal for building broad brand awareness. While direct profit is lower, the high accessibility generates significant activity and gets your brand name in front of the largest possible audience.Sponsorships• Accessibility: Low• Profit: Moderate• CPM: ~$25 - $50 (with rates around 40−50 being for highly targeted, premium placements)• Analysis: Sponsorships are more targeted and context-driven, focusing on a specific audience or niche. Because the partnership is more direct and relevant to the listener, the profit potential is higher than with general advertisements.Subscriptions• Accessibility: Varies (requires a private offering)• Profit: High potential• Mechanism: This model is typically executed by offering exclusive bonus content through a private RSS feed, which is separate from the public feed that distributes to apps like Apple and Spotify. A subscription can unlock access to a private community, a members-only forum, a swag bag, or exclusive meetups, creating a high-value offering for your most dedicated listeners.9. [24:00] Content in Action: Podcast Formats & SEO ChecklistSuccessful podcasting requires a deliberate approach to both the creative format of your content and the technical SEO that ensures it gets discovered. Mastering these elements will position your podcast for maximum impact and growth.Podcast Formats to Consider: ◦ Solo (Monologue) ◦ Interview ◦ Co-host ◦ Roundtable (three or more people) ◦ Theme / FacelessEssential Podcast SEO Checklist: ◦ Podcast Title ◦ Author Name ◦ Podcast Description ◦ Episode Title ◦ Episode Description ◦ Podcast Art Cover ◦ Episode Art CoverBy optimizing these foundational elements, you ensure that every episode you produce has the best possible chance of reaching its intended audience and contributing to your business's bottom line.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
