April 20, 2012 BP PodcastEpisode 90: Lemonade Breeds Too Much EnthusiasmQuick lesson for podcasters: you can't have a guest without booking a guest. Because of that tough lesson, it's an intimate show loaded with baseball talk. We go through your email (the listeners have come up big in the last two weeks) and then we look back at Pudge Rodriguez, look at some present with some surprising hot starts in the big leagues, and then look forward with the possibility of the 2011 draft being a monster. Then Jason regales us with tales from his week watching Carolina League baseball. From there it's the goofy stuff, including a video game recommendation that I think will appeal to the statistically minded. As always, we hope you enjoy. Note: We do alert you to the presence of the occasional adult language and subject matter. Don't say we didn't warn you. Up And In Episode 90: "Lemonade Breeds Too Much Enthusiasm"

I have yet to listen to the podcast (I am sure it is great as always), but thank-you for reminding me to buy the new Screaming Females album! This show introduced me to them and since then I have bought everything they have released.
Don Giovanni is basically the Moneyball record label right now. Exploiting the market inefficiency that is the Up and In musical guest.
