Peak dad day: coached my 8th grade hoops team to a 5th place finish in state and then horrified my kids in the car by playing a max volume “Wuthering Heights.”
I’d start a a drink at the hotel, do the beef tartare and a hangar steak at Porzana, then walk to Smack Shack to have a nightcap and spin the wheel.
Absolutely tore through “The Believers.” Best book I’ve read in forever. Compulsively readable novel about the AIDS crisis in mid-80s Chicago and the present day aftermath. Gonna be thinking about this one for a long time. 10/10 stars.
51 out of 55 points. If “Quasimodo Predicted This” checks in at your Sopranos trivia it’s time to pay your tab and go home.
won Sopranos trivia tonight with @randballsstu.bsky.social @mjneuman.bsky.social and @broxey.bsky.social
Me, daily
NEW @thesportive.com is out today. We speculate on the Michigan football news then talk Vikings, Wolves and soccer. Plus Jon learns how to pronounce a word. Fun one. https://overcast.fm/+AABbKevu5zY
First two episodes were 🔥
just....enjoy this
New episode! Not every podcast would be willing to record a Timberwolves season preview podcast during the first quarter of the first game of the season, but we aren’t most podcasts!
✅ Bucket list item about to be checked off: seeing The Format in April. 🤘
Only way this series ending was gonna bum me out is if Springer was the hero. 👎
Geno got someone on the bench raptured with that grand slam
My beautiful and classy wife just ripped a loud fart, and when I went GROSS she said “it happens, I’m getting old” and while she was saying the word “old” she let an even louder one go and laughed maniacally. It’s important to remember the good times.
GNTLMN
New Sportive is so good. Bonus: I am not on it. https://overcast.fm/+AABbKdzNyfM
I tried desperately for tickets to this show and then I find out THEY PLAYED “HEY JEALOUSY.” The world is conspiring against me.
this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either
🚨🚨🚨 New episode - and of all things, all four of us were present in person. Maybe the second time in history?
We talked about music and morning drinking plans and occasionally even about sports.
Might start a side hustle devoted to creating pun related sponsored country tours. 💰
New episode! We finally discussed the Pohlads and the Twins, and while you might reasonably expect that after a couple weeks we would have cooled down - certainly, that seems to be the Pohlads' thoughts - we, well, haven't.
Plus: a follow-up Top 6 (or 4, in this case), and the (?) AFC South
New ranking of NYT games:
-Crossword (normal)
-Sudoku
-Spelling Bee
-Pips
-Wordle
-Strands
-Crossword (bad/dumb theme)
-Compound leg fracture
-Connections
This is a pretty good bit
New Sportive! @broxey.bsky.social and @chikenfingerz69.bsky.social and @jonmarthaler.com talk the demise of Little League, then cover our hopes and fears about the Vikings this year. Plus: a Twins-focused Top 6 that couldn't have been funnier if we'd tried, and Jon mispronounces some names.
Had a really stupid idea based on another meme I just made and so i had to make this, i am sorry
That was a top 5 internet day.
Read this when it came out and again a few years back. As a book nerd who played college baseball in the upper Midwest, it couldn’t possibly be more up my alley. Bias aside I still think it’s a great read.
Great albums need a big ol dumb sing-along song in it somewhere. “Saturday Morning” by the Eels, “Super 8” by Isbell etc, “Number One” by John Legend etc. Glad Tyler Childers delivered with “The Bitin’ List.” 🤘
