It Is What It is | S9E31
Episode description
Elliott lives up to his “Occasional” title and misses this week's show, but it doesn't really matter because technical issues with Rumble killed the stream before it even started.
The Cardinals won the weekend, the Cubs keep circling the drain, and the Brewers are on a heater that makes the division race feel like a bad joke. Two weeks ago, Pete and Elliott thought they still had a shot; now they’re Googling “wild card magic number” like it’s a life raft. Pete rants about Jeff Pico’s 1988 debut versus Cade Horton’s August 6 gem in his 14th MLB start. Ron’s Soccer Minute becomes a full segment as he and Pete dig into the bleak road ahead for Ron's Newcastle fandom, proving that when baseball’s this depressing, we’ll cling to any sport that isn’t actively hurting us.
No livestream this week, but we usually do so on YouTube, Rumble, Facebook, or X. Tuesdays at 8 PM (ish) Central Time.
