The snow is coming, the temperatures are dropping, and Dan Fox and Frank Knight are hunkering down for the “Snowstorm Edition” of Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank, Season 7, Episode 20, the Mike Schmidt episode. With Alan “Action” Jackson back on the mic (and loudly declaring he's not going anywhere), the crew opens with storm talk, model debates (American vs. European), and the real plan for survival: groceries stocked, a fireplace going, and a playlist full of podcast episodes. They also react to the show's sudden listener surge, downloads are up, but the email inbox is still empty, which leads to the usual mix of confusion, sarcasm, and friendly harassment.From there, the show pivots into baseball hot stove season, because apparently winter weather requires Mets news. Frank breaks down the Mets' aggressive trade for Brewers pitcher Freddy Peralta, acknowledging the price tag was steep: top prospects Jet Williams and Brandon Sproat shipped out for what could be a one-year rental. The crew debates whether it's worth it unless the Mets make a deep postseason run, while also noting how Milwaukee continues to master the “sell high, restock, stay competitive” model. The Mets' retooling continues with the trade for White Sox outfielder Luis Robert, a plus defender with speed who adds pressure on the bases, even if the bat hasn't fully returned to peak form. The conversation also touches on position changes and risk: Bo Bichette shifting to third, Polanco possibly moving to first, and the broader question of whether the Mets are building a contender or just rearranging the chessboard. A rumor about clubhouse political tension causing a rift surfaces, and the crew agrees that if it's true, it's a disappointing reason to break up a roster.The Yankees get their moment as well, with Alan celebrating New York re-signing Cody Bellinger—calling it a must-have move, praising his glove and clutch value, and approving the Yankees drawing the line before the seven-year demand. From there, the episode shifts into the NFL coaching carousel: the Giants landing John Harbaugh is treated as the marquee hire, with Alan arguing the Giants did the only smart thing, don't let him leave the building, pay him, and give him control. Stefanski to Atlanta sparks debate, including a blunt reaction to media criticism and a larger discussion about how much of a coach's success depends on what the franchise actually gives him to work with. The crew then runs through other hires and head-scratchers: Jesse Minter in Baltimore (with skepticism about “coaching trees”), Jeff Hafley to Miami (with questions about whether the résumé holds up without elite personnel), and Robert Saleh to Tennessee (with cautious optimism if Cam Ward develops and the situation is less of a tire fire than the Jets).A particularly chaotic moment hits when the group tries to explain why the Bills would even interview Philip Rivers for a head coaching job—leading to a side argument about Rivers' religion and the “he has a lot of kids” stereotype, before resetting and admitting it still doesn't make much football sense. The episode wraps with a classic Fox Brothers Alarms transition: updated “palatial basement” studio renovations, the company's services, contact info, and a renewed plea for listeners to actually send emails, because 280 downloads and zero messages feels personal.Special Thanks to:Fox Brothers Alarms - https://foxbrothersalarms.comFirst Baptist church of Phillipsburg NJ http://www.fbcpburg.org/
Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about the best point in the podcast at which to talk transactions, how a salary cap would affect the kind of conversations we have about baseball (based on the way we discuss other sports), the notion that a particular signing would drive owners to pursue a salary cap, and (25:09) whether a fielder’s proclivity for diving catches tells us anything about how good he is (inspired by the belief that Andruw Jones never had to dive). Then (44:32) they break down the latest Mets moves (for Luis Robert Jr. and Freddy Peralta), the team’s extreme makeover, and why the Brewers dealt Peralta, plus (1:29:08) the Yankees’ Cody Bellinger deal, their lack of roster turnover, and Belli’s up-down-up career.

Football Playoffs, Luke Combs, Bruce Springsteen, Greenland. Winter Storm Fern is Coming. Don Lemon, Tiktok, Paris Hilton, AOC, Stars And Stripes in the Cross Hairs. Winter Storm Fern is coming—but so is Willie Geist. In this special Football Friday episode of Independent Americans, Paul Rieckhoff welcomes back one of the show's very first guests and one of the most trusted voices in American media: MS NOW Morning Joe co-anchor and Sunday Today host Willie Geist. Together they unpack a blizzard of news and sports, from Trump's escalating ICE raids and the horrific detention of five-year-old Liam Ramos to the killing of Renee Goode and what this all reveals about power, abuse and basic decency in America right now. They go below the radar on Trump's mounting assault on the free press—DOJ's failed move against Don Lemon, the targeting of outlets like Stars and Stripes, and what it's like to do Morning Joe in a country where the president openly weaponizes the government against media critics. Willie explains why this is exactly the time to lean in, not check out, and why he still sees his work as a public service rooted in gratitude, fatherhood and deep support for veterans. And because it's Football Friday, they also break down NFL Championship Sunday—Patriots–Broncos, Seahawks–Rams, Drake May's poise vs. Matt Stafford's firepower—plus Giants, Harbaugh, Skattebo, the Yankees, Don Mattingly and why live sports and music (from Luke Combs to Springsteen in Newark) still bring divided Americans together. If you're furious about ICE, worried about democracy, but still love football, snow days and a little hope in the storm, this is your episode. Because every episode of Independent Americans with Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the most important news stories--and offers light to contrast the heat of other politics and news shows.

The guys circle back to an emailed question they missed and finally explain the Cody Bellinger contract debate. If the Mets offered Kyle Tucker four years and $160M, why not offer Bellinger the same? The answer comes down to age, value, and how the Mets view Tucker compared to Bellinger, plus the sense that Bellinger's market was basically the Yankees. Then it's time for the weekly highlight reel: “Idiots With Idioms,” where everyone gets roasted for mangling phrases, mixing metaphors, and inventing brand new sayings on live radio. Add in storm chatter affecting schedules and travel, and the hour closes with Championship Sunday picks and updated playoff standings, including the big debates around Patriots at Broncos and Rams at Seahawks.
The guys debate how teams should handle first-round busts, comparing the Giants' situation with Deontay Banks to the Yankees once rethinking Giancarlo Stanton. Is it smarter to cut ties, or squeeze value out of what a player can still do? Then things heat up with Jets fans reliving their quarterback misery as Sam Darnold discourse spirals into regret, blame, and social media fights, plus why comparisons to Saquon Barkley still hit a nerve. And just when you think it can't get more chaotic, a viral snowstorm take ignites a full-blown war over shoveling, kids playing outside, selfish weather joy, and one perfectly timed snow blower joke that somehow brings everyone back together.

Joe Schoen's daughter makes a joke on social media; David Stearns needs Freddy Peralta to sign in order to make the trade worth it. Plus, if you didn't know the Yankees have great pitching. And you don't want to miss out on the proposal gone wrong.
David Stearns did what he needed to do to win the off season. Wait did they? Some think they did, others like C-Mac think the Mets did a lot just to get back to where they were when the season ended. Stephen Ross forgot who he hired at his introductory press conference and Pat Leonard sits in and discusses the changes taking place since John Harbaugh has taken over the New York Giants. Joe Schoen's daughter makes a joke on social media; David Stearns needs Freddy Peralta to sign in order to make the trade worth it. Plus, if you didn't know the Yankees have great pitching. And you don't want to miss out on the proposal gone wrong. In what could possibly be the craziest storm of all time, you should make sure to snuggle up to your loved ones a go watch the movie RIP, just so you can tell Carton whether or not Jon Hamm is in the movie. Plus, C-Mac brings his best Yankee hot stove on a Thursday night.
Chris Simms tells us how he used to watch Yankees games in the owners box with the former boss. The Bills press conference doesn't make the job look appealing. Simms isn't ready to count out the Denver Broncos just yet and he thinks the Seattle Seahawks are the best team left in the playoffs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today's word of the day is ‘lowmark' as in the Buffalo Bills as in Terry Pegula as in Brandon Beane as in Sean McDermott as in Josh Allen.

Ben Maller talks about the Mets trading for Brewers ace Freddy Peralta, Cody Bellinger staying with the Yankees, Charles Barkley only working four days during the NBA season, another edition of #AskBen, and more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
It's late January, almost every MLB domino has fallen, and the crew pulls out the Free Agency Bingo board to see who actually knew what they were talking about. They relive the Cody Bellinger call, admit who got played, and set the stage for the final remaining free agent while arguing about whether trades should even count in the game. Then Evan doubles down on the biggest Mets debate: why paying a premium for “really good” Freddy Peralta is not the same as paying up for a true monster like Tarik Skubal. The “five-inning pitcher” label gets thrown on the table, the Peralta vs Skubal comparison heats up, and the Mets' long-term plan gets questioned again. Plus, the phones go sideways. A Jets caller tries to “grease the wheels” for a Josh Allen trade fantasy, the guys roast how dark it has gotten for Jets fans, and a caller checks in with a life update, a joke, and a Mets reality check that turns into a full-blown offseason therapy session.
The conversation shifts from vibes to numbers as Vegas steps in. Using FanDuel win totals, the guys break down how the Mets and Yankees are actually being viewed heading into the season and the results are eye-opening. The Yankees are still favorites in the American League despite a quiet offseason, while the Mets are suddenly sitting right behind the Dodgers as one of the top teams in the National League. That leads to a deeper debate about roster construction and expectations. Why the Mets trading for Freddy Peralta was a necessity, not a luxury. Why the Yankees passing on him made sense given their rotation depth. And why David Stearns may be closer to finishing his “painting” than fans want to admit. Calls pour in arguing whether a 90-win projection is fair, whether Peralta should be pushed deeper into games, and whether an extension changes everything. Plus, the crew reacts to how tightly bunched the NL really is behind the Dodgers and asks the question Mets fans cannot avoid anymore: if Vegas believes this team is real, do you?
Championship Sunday can't get here fast enough, and this segment sets the table with a wild, history-flavored nugget: the Broncos are massive home underdogs in a conference title game, a point spread that almost never happens. The crew digs into recent championship games where the home team still got points, including the Nick Foles Eagles and the Peyton Manning Broncos, then lands on the rare example where the home dog actually lost in a tight one. From there, it turns into full sports-radio paranoia: is this a Patriots coronation, or can Denver's altitude, coaching, and a competent Jarrett Stidham performance flip the script. The conversation spirals into what a Stidham win would do to the QB market and whether quarterback-desperate teams would start talking themselves into it by Monday morning. Then the segment swerves into pure show chaos with Cinco de Luncho, featuring a rapid-fire Top 5 starting pitchers in New York and an immediate counter-list that turns into a debate about respect, projection, and whose “ace” is really built for the moment. It wraps with a quick tease that a weird streak ended during Knicks-Nets that's supposedly going to blow your mind.
The final hour of Evan & Tiki is packed with baseball, football, and classic New York sports banter. Evan and Tiki react to a whirlwind MLB offseason, including the Mets' aggressive moves for Freddy Peralta, Luis Robert Jr., and Bo Bichette, and debate whether Peralta is a risky rental or a long-term building block. The Yankees' decision to retain Cody Bellinger sparks further discussion about roster construction and championship expectations in a Dodgers-dominated league.
Hour 2 starts with the crew wrapping up their MLB Free Agency Bingo board, with only one final name left on the list and plenty of laughs at who nailed predictions like Cody Bellinger and who completely whiffed. Then the conversation shifts into the big-picture question: what do Vegas win totals say about the Yankees and Mets right now, and do those numbers match reality? Evan explains why he would have been far more comfortable paying a premium for an elite like Tarik Skubal than a “really good” Freddy Peralta, and why the “five-inning pitcher” label matters when you are giving up top prospects. Calls pour in debating whether the Mets should push Peralta deeper into games, whether an extension is actually possible, and whether this whole plan is a smart year-to-year build or just living on rentals. Plus: a wild Jets caller tries to “grease the wheels” for a Josh Allen fantasy, the guys roast the sad state of Jets fandom, and a fan checks in with life updates that send the show down an unexpectedly funny path. And to close the hour, the crew dives into pronunciation chaos, including a pitcher clarifying how to actually say his name, and a Drury joke that deserved better timing.
Hour 3 opens with Evan owning his “Nets shocked the world” slip, plus a full recap of the quickest 6–4 hope in sports history as he takes his five-year-old to MSG and watches the Knicks turn it into a crime scene. Then the guys debate whether Tommy is officially a group chat squatter and if the crew should quietly boot him at the perfect time. From there, it's real Giants business: the organization starts clearing out long-time staffers as John Harbaugh puts his stamp on the building, with Tiki explaining how those behind-the-scenes changes actually work and why some “family” staples may not survive this new era. Then the moment of the hour: Andrew Caplan's audio package that proves John Harbaugh and Joe Biden are voice doppelgangers. Once you hear it back-to-back, you cannot unhear it. Plus: Mets fans call in with the perfect word for this offseason, confusion, as the “hope mode” roster debate rages on. And the hour closes with pure Cinco de Lunch chaos as the crew fires off their top five New York starting pitchers lists and immediately starts a civil war over where Peralta, McClain, Rodon, Cole, and the new Yankees arms belong.

When the New York Mets signed Bo Bichette and traded for Luis Robert Jr., many wondered if President of Baseball Ops David Stearns was finished making major moves this offseason. On Wednesday night though, Stearns had one more big surprise up his sleeve when he acquired someone from his past days in Milwaukee.On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the big trade that saw the Mets deal for Milwaukee Brewers ace Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers in exchange for a package of top prospects Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams. With Peralta now headlining the Mets' starting rotation, does this addition make them a World Series contender again? Also, how will the new additions to the Brew Crew's prospect pipeline help them in the immediate future?Later, Jordan and Jake talk about the New York Yankees and Cody Bellinger reuniting after his impressive 2025 season in pinstripes on a five-year, $162.5 million contract. The move further solidifies the Yankees' belief in their offense, essentially running it back from last season—but could Brian Cashman and company have one more front-page deal before Spring Training kicks off? The guys then close the show by making their picks for this week's edition of The Good, The Bad & The Uggla.2:03 – The Opener: Freddy Peralta to the Mets29:43 – Jordan's Prospect Hut: The Brewers' return38:28 – Yankees re-sign Cody Bellinger52:00 – Scott Boras Scoreboard update54:37 – The Good1:01:13 – The Bad1:06:44 – The Uggla Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
