No jokes in this week’s title, folks.* Nope—this time around, the show’s title is merely an accurate description of its content. Imagine!
Ben Kabak, who is the mastermind behind Second Avenue Sagas, one of the co-founders of River Avenue Blues, and who brought this wondrous thing into the world, joins us to offer guesses as to what lies ahead as the second half of the 2013 season gets underway.
*EDITOR’S NOTE: There IS, however, a poetry point.
We’re joined once again by Orioles Executive VP of Baseball Operations Dan Duquette to discuss the acquisition of Scott Feldman, weigh in on the debate about the value of no-hitters, talk a little Aldous Huxley, and listen to a lullaby sung by Fred Manfra.
A Baltimorons Special Report (TM) on the topic of baseball ownership and it’s often astounding levels of evil.
In which we land two tremendous interviews—one with Lucas Heppner, who runs the Orioles Nation Official Facebook page, and Orioles Executive VP of Baseball Operations Dan Duquette.
One of them goes better than the other.
Check out Orioles Nation Official on Facebook, and follow Lucas on Twitter.
Alan meditates on the historical significance of Joe Dimaggio’s hitting streak and laments the dearth of exciting nicknames in the modern era, and then Sam ruins the episode with a staggering amount of gutter-talk. PLUS: A FUN AND EXCITING POLL FOR YOU TO VOTE IN.
In which we are joined by the Orioles Spastics crew to create what scientists believe is the first and only Orioles starting lineup comprised entirely of Arrested Development characters, complete with their real-life Orioles player counterparts.
Check out the Spastics’ excellent Arrested Development-themed O’s podcast—it fills a void you didn’t know you had in your life.
Global politics, horrendous puns, and Jacques Cousteau collide in the latest edition of Baltimorons. We know what you’re thinking: sounds like a pretty typical episode. Well, sir or ladysir, you would be wrong, because this week we’re honored to be joined by Jonah Keri,Grantland columnist and best-selling author of The Extra 2%: How Wall Street Strategies Took a Major League Baseball Team From Worst to First.

Sam and Alan rap with Matt and Josh from the brand-new Section 336 podcast, another O’s-focused hub of audio goodtimes that’s been tearing up the iTunes of late. They also ponder whether To Cliff or not To Cliff, come down considerably from last week’s Gausmania, and get a wee Trotsky-tastic (Leon, not Hal) on some recent baseball-related political kerfuffles.
…and other quandaries. Our latest and greatest episode finds your hosts atoning for some fairly egregious sins, and also pondering, as usual, the true essence of our loyalty to the Orioles—i.e. diagnosing ourselves with arguably severe alcohol and emotional issues. We also strike a resounding blow for international baseball dialogue, and catalyze a fashion revolution.
All in a week’s work, folks, allllll in a week’s work.
