The MLB investigation into the Red Sox cheating scandal has, predictably, thrown some unknown underling under the bus, while exonerating Alex Cora and the front office.

Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love

The Blessing of the Balls

Kirk's not exactly pleased with a certainly height-challenged Minifan who hosts a show on the Youtube channel, but that doesn't mean he's going to censor is crappy show. After listening to Howard Stern's full interview with Tom Brady, Kirk revises his initial review (0:27:00). Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders has dropped out of the presidential race (but not before letting all his Wisconsin voters catch coronavirus while voting), meaning Joe Biden is the presumptive Democratic nominee (0:37:40).

You Hate to See It

Some of Kirk Minihane's long-standing enemies have fallen victim to the sour economy and are now jobless. But surely Kirk is too magnanimous of a man to take joy in the suffering of others?

TubeWars

Controversy has erupted on the Kirk Minihane Show Youtube channel. Steve Robinson made the unilateral decision to censor a conspiracy theory show, and Kirk ain't happy.

Blind Mike's Gag Order

Blind Mike's prank call to Mike Francesa's radio program backfires big time, bringing Dave Portnoy within inches of firing him; Kirk Minihane performs heroically and honorably throughout.
