"Who's Your Band?" Podcast Episode 143! Comedians Jeffrey Paul and Sean Morton with special guest, former professional baseball player Turk Wendell!With the 2024 baseball season upon us, we welcome to "Who's Your Band?" former professional baseball player and New York Mets pitcher Turk Wendell! We talk all things baseball, what it's like being a pro baseball player on the road, best teammates, subway series, getting traded, and so much more!

The Mets took a good, old-fashioned pounding on Monday afternoon, giving up 10 runs to the Brewers after having allowed only eight runs in the first four games of the season, combined, while taking three out of four in Miami. What's worse, they disappointed Chrystal and Colleen, who made the trip to Cream City to see that mess.Maybe the Mets felt weird being in Wisconsin. After all, I've said on multiple podcasts now that Milwaukee feels like a later-in-the-year trip for the boys in orange and blue.Turns out, that's right. It's been a long time since the Mets were in Milwaukee in April. Here's when they've gone over the last several years.2022: September2021: September2020: No trip2019: May2018: May2017: May2016: June2015: June2014: July2013: July2012: September2011: June2010: May2009: June/July2008: September2007: July/August2006: May2005: May2004: August2003: May2002: August2001: AprilIt's been 22 years since the Mets were in Milwaukee this early in the year, and even longer since they actually won a game in Milwaukee in the first month of the baseball calendar. The 2001 Mets, on their first trip to Miller Park, lost 6-4, 7-2, and 12-8 to what wound up being a 94-loss Brewers team.The Mets' last win in Milwaukee in April was at County Stadium, on April 12, 1998, as Turk Wendell coughed up a lead for Brian Bohanon, and wound up vulturing the win thanks to John Olerud's tiebreaking two-run homer in the seventh inning.All time, the Mets are now 2-9 in Milwaukee in April, with both wins coming during that 1998 series. The other win was the day before the last one, with Rey Ordoñez driving in Butch Huskey with the winning run on a ninth-inning single after Bob Wickman intentionally walked Matt Franco.The Mets lost the opener of that series, which at the time continued a nearly 35-year losing streak in Milwaukee during April. The Mets had one previous trip there so early, the second series of the 1963 season… and got swept in four games by the Braves, including a walk-off two-run homer by Lee Maye off Tracy Stallard in the finale that helped set the tone for the Mets' decades of misery on whatever rare occasions they have to go to cheese country in April.

Episode #170: Former MLB Pitcher, Turk Wendell and an Encore of Sarit Packer and Itamar Srulovich, Restaurateurs and the Authors of Chasing Smoke Turk Wendell is a former Major League Baseball relief pitcher who played for 11 seasons.  His career kept him in the National League, playing for four teams, the Chicago Cubs, the New York Mets, the Philadelphia Phillies, and the Colorado Rockies.  Turk is known for some special behaviors (jumping over the foul line on his way to and from the mound, brushing his teeth between innings, slamming the rosin bag into the mound, waving at his center fielder, and a few others) which he gladly discusses and offers explanations for.  He is unique, has great stories to tell, and during his playing days he was not afraid to speak his mind regarding other players suspected of using steroids.  This angered some ballplayers, but Turk did not back down.  Turk loved playing the game and even offered to play his final year for free.  Bill Chuck, baseball writer, and researcher, who has a weekly column in the Chicago Sun-Times joins us again and adds his vast knowledge and unique insights to this wonderful discussion.         Sarit Packer and Itamar Srulovich are a wife and husband team who opened their first Middle Eastern-themed restaurant, Honey & Co in London, England in 2012.  Additionally, they are the authors of three cookbooks.  Their newest London restaurant is Honey & Smoke and their latest cookbook, filled with incredible recipes and beautiful photos is Chasing Smoke:  Cooking Over Fire Around The Levant.  Leonard ate at Honey and Smoke during his recent London trip and it was exceptional, making this a good time to repeat this segment.  We learn what is meant by the Levant and discuss their lives which began in Israel and eventually brought them to London where they own two restaurants and one specialty grocery store.  The book takes the reader on a journey which includes their favorite cities as they collected recipes, stories, and the best of culinary culture along the way.  If you have been wondering what else is possible to make over a live fire then this is the cookbook for you.  Despite the five-hour time difference, Sarit and Itamar managed to find the time to charm us as we spoke of everything, including their special relationship, which works well for them. We conclude the show with the song, Baseball Always Brings You Home from the musician, Dave Dresser and the poet, Shel Krakofsky.   We recommend you go to Baseball BBQ, https://baseballbbq.com for special grilling tools and accessories, the Pandemic Baseball Book Club, https://www.pbbclub.com  to find many of the wonderful books we have featured as well as some additional swag, Magnechef, https://magnechef.com/ for excellent and unique barbecue gloves, Cutting Edge Firewood High Quality Kiln Dried Firewood - Cutting Edge Firewood in Atlanta for high quality firewood and cooking wood, and Mantis BBQ, https://mantisbbq.com/ to purchase their outstanding sauces with a portion of the proceeds being donated to the Kidney Project.

Perhaps more than any other sport, baseball is a game that seems to have cultivated weirdos. It's a home for people who probably wouldn't fit in anywhere else.

Mike and Bill use this as an excuse to talk about him and several of their other favorite weirdos from the annals of baseball history. Plus, happy birthday to Mike Scioscia and Wayne Garrett!

It's only a week into spring training and Francisco Lindor is putting on a swagger SHOWCASE. This guy is the definition of "as cool as the other side of the pillow." Blue hair, multiple chains and bracelets, a pinky ring AND THE JACKET FROM 'Coming to America.' This man was made for New York. Don't worry though, this isn't Yo's brand of swag like that girl in your high school with hoop earrings that'll rip your heart out, this is the type of swag that you can only be born with. Frankie's kind of cool is that effortless type that you always want to be around. The best part is he's a smooth on the field as he is off of it. He isn't above the team in any way and fits in perfectly with the cast of characters that we've already got. Working with McNeil on his defense, ripping baseballs and just being a stand up guy. Just another piece in the puzzle of a winning franchise. The guys discuss the impact that he's already having on the club and the good vibes that are flowing from the camp. We talk Taijuan Walker's new number, his stamp of approval from Turk Wendell and just how scary this rotation could really be when everyone is clicking and healthy. KFC announces the Barstool at the Ballpark dates, a 7 Line tailgate crossover and new merch in the works. It's going to be a glorious 2021 and with the team being ranked fifth in the preseason power rankings we gotta believe that this squad is good enough to deal with the target on their backs.

Author Jacob Kornhauser joins us talk about his book The Cup of Coffee Club. Jacob highlights some true “cup of coffee” guys. These are players who appeared in only a single game in their major league career, and in one case, the word appeared is all they did. Hear how each player handled a much shorter version of what they hoped would have been a long career in the majors. A couple of the names we’ve covered in the past, but Jacob offers a much more in depth look at their short careers.
