Episode 280, baby — only 20 away from 300 and we're NOT slowing down. This week Mike and Tony go deep on gout (yes, gout), the genetics behind who gets it, and whether Couch Guy was always destined for the couch. Then it's a full breakdown of which sports actually produce the most elite athletes, a Nolan Ryan appreciation segment nobody asked for but everyone needed, and somehow we end up on Mike Tyson eating a fistful of mushrooms on Logan Paul's podcast like it's nothing. It's science. It's sports. It's chaos.

The guys break down the Rangers' hot week and the exciting brand of baseball they played. Evan wonders how the Rangers will handle playing time once Wyatt Langford returns from the IL. Then Rangers Hall of Famer Buddy Bell joins the program to discuss the circus that was the early 1980s for the organization and how he almost returned to the club, and the fellas both ponder the possibilities that might have had on the front office fracture that led to Nolan Ryan's departure. And in the archives, John goes back to research 200-hit seasons in club history, since Bell was the first player to ever reach that mark. Will anybody else do it in this era with less emphasis on hitting and more emphasis on workload management? And, on the subject of 200-hit seasons,  Evan wonders once again: When will the Rangers commission a statue of Michael Young. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Most investors spend their energy asking the wrong question. It's not which fund is best -- it's which combination of funds gets you to your actual goal at a cost and complexity level you'll actually maintain. Joe and OG break down the full index investing playbook: where to start, when to add complexity, what Wall Street calls indexing that really isn't, and the one number that should change how you think about your entire portfolio.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy the real argument for index investing isn't that nobody beats the market -- it's that you can't predict who will do it nextThe crockpot principle of index investing -- and why the self-cleaning oven analogy might be even betterWhy the S&P 500 and the total stock market index are closer than most people think -- and which one Joe is increasingly favoring for the long runThe $100,000 turning point: what changes about your investment strategy when the portfolio gets big enough to get scientificThe first two additions most Stackers should consider beyond their core index -- and why OG would actually add more than twoWhy mixing index funds from different companies can quietly undermine your diversification without you ever knowing itHow to replace the word "index" with "list" to instantly identify whether a product is actually doing what you think it isThe buffered ETFs, factor ETFs, and active ETFs that call themselves indexes -- and why most Stackers should walk right past themWhy you're not racing against the index -- you're on a road trip -- and what that shift in framing changes about every investing decisionThe season one recap from OG and Anna's financial planning basics series -- plus the free workbook that ties all seven episodes togetherWhy This Matters NowIn your 40s, the portfolio is finally big enough to matter -- and that's exactly when the temptation to complicate things gets strongest. New products, new strategies, and new buzzwords show up constantly, each promising a smarter approach. The investors who come out ahead aren't the ones who found the best fund. They're the ones who built something simple enough to maintain, scientific enough to optimize, and sturdy enough to hold through the moments when everything feels like it's falling apart.From the BasementJoe and OG dig into the full index investing playbook -- from the first fund a beginner should buy to the asset class combinations that actually improve long-term outcomes once the portfolio gets big enough to warrant it.

Most investors spend their energy asking the wrong question. It's not which fund is best -- it's which combination of funds gets you to your actual goal at a cost and complexity level you'll actually maintain. Joe and OG break down the full index investing playbook: where to start, when to add complexity, what Wall Street calls indexing that really isn't, and the one number that should change how you think about your entire portfolio. What You'll Walk Away With Why the real argument for index investing isn't that nobody beats the market -- it's that you can't predict who will do it next The crockpot principle of index investing -- and why the self-cleaning oven analogy might be even better Why the S&P 500 and the total stock market index are closer than most people think -- and which one Joe is increasingly favoring for the long run The $100,000 turning point: what changes about your investment strategy when the portfolio gets big enough to get scientific The first two additions most Stackers should consider beyond their core index -- and why OG would actually add more than two Why mixing index funds from different companies can quietly undermine your diversification without you ever knowing it How to replace the word "index" with "list" to instantly identify whether a product is actually doing what you think it is The buffered ETFs, factor ETFs, and active ETFs that call themselves indexes -- and why most Stackers should walk right past them Why you're not racing against the index -- you're on a road trip -- and what that shift in framing changes about every investing decision The season one recap from OG and Anna's financial planning basics series -- plus the free workbook that ties all seven episodes together Why This Matters Now In your 40s, the portfolio is finally big enough to matter -- and that's exactly when the temptation to complicate things gets strongest. New products, new strategies, and new buzzwords show up constantly, each promising a smarter approach. The investors who come out ahead aren't the ones who found the best fund. They're the ones who built something simple enough to maintain, scientific enough to optimize, and sturdy enough to hold through the moments when everything feels like it's falling apart. From the Basement Joe and OG dig into the full index investing playbook -- from the first fund a beginner should buy to the asset class combinations that actually improve long-term outcomes once the portfolio gets big enough to warrant it.

With the Rangers sitting at .500, a familiar spot the last two seasons, John and Evan break down the significance of Wyatt Langford's forearm injury and whether all the soft tissue injuries early in his career are a concern. Speaking of concerns, the guys wonder about Corey Seager getting hot, because, as Evan says, the offense isn't really going anywhere until Seager and Langford get on track. And what's the deal with this defense? Then Mark McLemore joins the guys as they continue celebrating the 30th anniversary of the first Rangers playoff team. The Doctor of Defense reminisces about what Johnny Oates meant to his career and how that helped McLemore become a clubhouse leader for the late 1990s Rangers. Finally, John goes back to the Nolan Ryan shelf in the Archives in Arlington to break out a story about the hot start of the 1989 team. Learn more about your ad choices.

After the Rangers' season-opening roster was set, John and Evan break down the final decisions and how playing time might be split at some positions. We also revisit the cool moment of Skip Schumaker informing Carter Baumler that he'd made the team while on the mound in the middle of an inning. Former Rangers catcher Robinson Chirinos, the bench coach for Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic, stops by to talk about the run through the tournament, the work the staff and players put in and the gratitude that washed over him and his countrymen after the win over Team USA. Finally, in the Archives in Arlington, we walk through some 21st Century season openers, including Alex Rodriguez's first game, which foreshadowed a season and an era. And John shares a little surprise about the time Nolan Ryan and Robin Ventura talked on opening day - for the first time in nearly 20 years since their brawl. Learn more about your ad choices.

Baseball built Julia’s career, but it’s the people behind the game who keep her in Houston. She traces her path from small‑town athlete to Astros broadcaster, then opens up about 2020, when pregnancy, COVID, and her mother’s breast cancer collided, pushing her to start mammograms early and speak candidly about family history and early detection. Please consider sharing this episode, or making a donation at therose.org so more women receive breast cancer screening and care. Subscribe to Let’s Talk About Your Breasts on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart, and wherever you get your podcasts. Key questions answered 1. How did a sports‑obsessed kid from Crandall, Texas, work her way from tiny markets and tomahawk tournaments to the Houston Astros broadcast team? 2. What did Julia learn in minor league ballparks with the Round Rock Express that made her the right hire for a full‑time traveling baseball role? 3. How did legendary play‑by‑play announcer Bill Brown help introduce her to Astros fans and give her space to be herself on air during losing seasons? 4. Why did Julia decide to drop the “buttoned‑up” reporter persona and let fans see the same person on TV that they’d meet in H‑E‑B? 5. What toll did early years of bad baseball, five‑hour games, and constant travel take on her, and how did those years actually make her a better reporter? 6. How did the arrival of stars like Jose Altuve, Carlos Correa, George Springer, and Lance McCullers change her job and the way the broadcast told stories? 7. In what ways does Julia see herself as a trailblazer for women in sports media, and how did little girls in the stands with “I’m here to see Julia” signs change her perspective? 8. How did she balance becoming a visible role model with raising her own young daughter, knowing her child is watching how she treats people on and off camera? 9. What exactly happened in 2020 when Julia was navigating pregnancy, a shutdown baseball season, and the discovery that her mother was already deep into breast cancer treatment? 10. How has her mother’s diagnosis and double mastectomy shaped her own screening habits, her views on early detection, and her message to fans about mammograms? Timestamped overview 00:30 Julia explains what she actually is on air: sideline reporter, field reporter, broadcaster, and sometimes “Ms. Astro” 01:37 First jobs after college as a small‑market sports reporter, covering everything from football to tomahawk throwing in Sherman, Texas 04:01 Learning the business side of baseball: players being optioned, designated for assignment, and the stories that never make the big‑league broadcast 06:50 Adjusting from local news schedules to life on the road with a Major League team and learning live, in‑game broadcasting 09:39 Julia’s decision to stop playing the “hard‑news” sideline role and instead be fully herself for 162 games a season 11:20 The grind of 2013: bad team, long games, coast‑to‑coast travel, wardrobe stress, and quietly hitting a wall by May 22:01 Staying in the role long‑term when many women cycled out after a couple of years; growing up on camera and putting down roots in Houston 24:19 How deep ties to players, alumni, and Astros legends made Julia a lifelong fan of people like Jose Altuve and Nolan Ryan 25:58 The moment she realized she was inspiring girls: signs in the stands, little fans calling her name, and seeing herself in them the way she once heard Pam Oliver 29:02 Dorothy shifts the conversation to breast cancer and asks about Julia’s mom’s diagnosis coinciding with her pregnancy in 2020 31:32 Returning home, camping out on her mom’s couch during early COVID, and missing the signs that something was wrong 32:31 Mom’s later visit to Houston in a baseball cap, the quiet reveal that she’d already started breast cancer treatment, and Julia’s guilt at not knowing 33:28 Processing that her mother had been doing chemo and appointments alone while Julia was focused on pregnancy and job uncertainty 34:00 The double mastectomy scheduled three days before Julia’s delivery, scrambling to give her mother time to recover and still meet her grandbaby 35:03 Her mom’s lump, finding it on a mammogram, getting treated despite the pandemic, and being “all good” now 35:32 Why Julia started mammograms three years early, at 37, and how her mother’s estrogen‑sensitive cancer changed the way she thinks about her own stress and hormones 38:06 Fears and conversations about risk for her daughter Valerie, hereditary questions, and how often she thinks about their shared futureSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tim Kurkjian had an absolute monster of a day, sitting down with Nolan Ryan and Dwight Gooden separately—on the same day. Even after all his years covering the game, he says there have been few days outside of Cooperstown inductions as story-filled as this one. He recaps both conversations for us. Who made their ball club? We break down the end of Spring Training, an exciting time for players who’ve finally achieved their dream of making a big league roster—including one player who made his promotion even more special. Plus, we dive into what happened On This Date in baseball history, Tim revisits some classic baseball cards, and as always, we wrap things up with a Team Tim.
