@JoeOrrico99 Braves hell. We can’t have nice things because AA curled all the fingers on the Monkey’s Paw in 2021. Hot start? Barves June. Sale historic outing? Bear eats pitchers arms.

Will also admit, nobody wants to hear a Braves fan complain; we’re spoiled by a generally decent team. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@JoeOrrico99 Excellent. Look forward to hearing it. I’m still rocking an RE-320 I bought to mic a Leslie cabinet but have used far more for podcasting. There’s a lot to be said for a good dynamic mic! Everybody loves condensers until they pick up the cat farting next door.

@MKaminskiMusic You put in your 10,000 innings, with apologies to Malcom Gladwell for mangling his thesis.

Related: When I dg up a pedal clavier for my A-101, I’m giving you a call. I can’t kick bass to save my life. I’m a fair player otherwise, but that’s a gap in my game.

@MattWelch Facts. I'm ~30 min away from where he posted that and can confirm, it's delightful out here. When's the Fifth doing a show in Chattanooga? We know the Chatt Whiskey guys are listeners, they've got a venue. Plenty of hospitality, beautiful views, great food. Y'all come, as we say.

@FreddyLA7 Hey, that's very close to my neck of the woods! I can confirm, there are some incredible folks in southeast TN. Glad you're enjoying it!

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@JoePisapia17 Shocked. Been following you since I found the FBBB almost 10y ago. Big fan of how you do your work & conduct yourself on-air: Entertaining, fun, and the right kind of tomfoolery that brings the listener and other hosts along for the ride. Wherever you land, I'll hit subscribe.

@FriarDale Pepperidge Farm remembers.

@JoeOrrico99 I'm in a SVHD league and even there the RPocalypse is overwhelming. Managers chasing dudes with a preseason ECR of approximately one billion because all the guys we spent on AND all the guys we thought we were stashing late in the draft have self-immolated.

@charlescwcooke Excellent. I eagerly await Aubrey trying to explain it to Maturin.

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@MattWelch @wethefifth I'm not a hat guy, but I might need to become a hat guy. Very nice.

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@mkhammer Somewhere, under the rainbow?

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@jrrogers625 Yep, not mad at that. Good GP up and down the field.

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@MattWelch He’s doing 1st episode of Ken Burns Baseball things in the modern game. Just unreal.

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@emzanotti Facts. I bought the old man Chucks a couple years ago, complete with padded sides and an actual insole. As an aging Xennial, my choices were those or the brightest white New Balance money could buy. No regrets. I was never cool, but at least now I’m comfortable.

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@MattWelch Good advice, both generally and also, in that case, specifically.

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@mkhammer I was more the “American Gladiators/People’s Court Reruns on USA” crowd, but it still tracks.

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@jrrogers625 Slaps his knees when he stands up to end the Mass.

[Jon Meek @ElectronJon]

@MattWelch Thanks for the Dylan Chronograph list. My wife and I watched A Complete Unknown, and she wanted to learn about the real guy. Dropped that right into her Spotify queue and it worked like a charm.

@JusBrierley "As Per My Last Email..." just doesn't have the same sizzle, does it?
