Healthy Scratches
On "Healthy Scratches" Bailey Kennedy and Howard Sparks give you the biggest and best takes ever from the world of sports. These takes come from one guy who rode the bench his senior year of college, and the other a washed up high school athlete. If you like hearing two guys who love sports and talking absolutely non sense than this is the podcast for you. And if you don’t like it as our good friend Peter McNeeley would say “then you got a big dump in your pants.”
