1 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: Here we go, the official show on the fish Stripes 2 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:21,639 Speaker 1: podcast channel. I'm Eli Sussman, the managing editor of fish Stripes. 3 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,440 Speaker 1: Thank you guys for tuning in. As always, as we 4 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,319 Speaker 1: cover the Miami Marlins every day in our own way, 5 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: and that's what this show will do. Once again, we'll 6 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: be doing something a little unusual on this episode, as 7 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: you could probably tell by looking at the title of 8 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 1: this episode, whether you're listening to it on any of 9 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: the pod providers or on fish stripes dot com directly, 10 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,879 Speaker 1: remember that's where you want to go for all of 11 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: our coverage on the main website, go to fish Stripes 12 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: dot com. A reminder that please rate and review this 13 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: pod on Apple if you have not already done so. 14 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: Every new rating and review that comes in between what 15 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: early August and the end of this regular season October third, 16 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 1: we'll be adding one dollar to our upcoming donation to 17 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: the Player's Alliance, an organization that creates opportunities for the 18 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: black community in the baseball community. To learn more, you 19 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: could go to the Players Alliance dot com. You could 20 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: donate for yourself over there, but a simple rating and 21 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: review would mean a lot to our pod. And again, 22 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 1: all that is part of this effort to further provide 23 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 1: for this organization and make baseball even more inclusive than 24 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: it already is. I am going to go through some 25 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: other Marlins podcasts on the show. If you're listening to 26 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 1: this is a very good chance you already subscribe to 27 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: Fish Stripes, so that's great. You should be subscribing to 28 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: other Marlins pods too. I am certainly not right about everything. 29 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: I'm not the authority on everything. There are other styles, viewpoints, perspectives, 30 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: formats out there that I think give so much to 31 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: the way that we analyze this team and appreciate this team. 32 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: I'm going to go through them right now. This idea 33 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 1: has been in my head really since very early in 34 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: this regular season, once we had I think at that time, 35 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: several other new pods popped up for the first time 36 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: during this twenty twenty one season, as they'll be mentioning, 37 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: of course, on this episode, but there were already a 38 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 1: handful that were out there entering this year that I've 39 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: already grown pretty close to, very friendly with and have 40 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: admired the way that they covered the team and the 41 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: way that they between the guests that they bring in 42 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: between their own analysis and the way that they use 43 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: their own platforms to promote some great causes and to 44 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: just have a lot of fun with fans. That wasn't 45 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: really possible even a few years ago, when it wasn't 46 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: so easy to just create pods on your own like that. 47 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: I chose the top ten because by my count, there 48 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: really are ten podcasts that I'm aware of that I'm 49 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: a regular listener too, that focus almost entirely on the 50 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: Miami Marlins. The actual impetus for putting out this show 51 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: right now is a tip of the hat to Jeremy 52 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: Tasher with the launching of his new podcast, Miami Miked 53 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: Up from Bally Sports Florida. Debut episode came out on 54 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: Wednesday with interviews with Jazz Chisholm Junior and then with 55 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: Israel Gudiirez. I'm sure you're aware both of those individuals. 56 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: He's not actually part of the Top ten just because 57 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: his show won't focus entirely on the Marlins, especially I 58 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: guess down the stretch this summer he'll have plenty of 59 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: Marlins guts. But of course, on Ballely Sports Florida, they 60 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: cover several of the other big franchises in South Florida 61 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: and there will be some episodes down the line that 62 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: probably don't mention the Marlins at all. But with Jeremy 63 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: Baseball I know means a lot to him for sure 64 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: as a former player himself and as someone as you'll 65 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: hear in a moment, he's involved with a couple of 66 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: our other podcasts that did make the top ten of 67 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: Marlins Pods. So once again sending out best wishes to 68 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: Jeremy on that show. He has a lot of man 69 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: power behind him at Bally Sports. I mean, they're going 70 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: to be not just releasing the audio, but I think 71 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: the video for pretty much all of those episodes and 72 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: interviews that he does. I'm very excited for that, and 73 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: you can tell just from listening to the first episode 74 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: that he's already put his own flavor on the show, 75 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: really making it his not just a vehicle for the 76 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: network itself, but a personality show on top of that. 77 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: So good luck to him. Congrats again Jeremy on launching 78 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: of that, and as really the impetus for me putting 79 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: out this episode right now, realizing that I really need 80 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: to get the people caught up and aware of all 81 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: the other audio coverage that takes place around the Marlins. 82 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,799 Speaker 1: So check out that interview with Jazz. He's always, obviously 83 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,239 Speaker 1: really perhaps at the top of the list of active 84 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: Marlins players that you just love to have a conversation with, 85 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: and he always just takes that conversation in unpredictable directions. 86 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: So I'm not going to rate these pods from one 87 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 1: to ten, nothing like that. Again, it's just about focusing 88 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 1: on these ten podcasts that I know focus on the 89 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: Marlins and people that put out content consistently. So really 90 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: the only parameter here is that I'm highlighting podcasts that 91 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: run consistent shows. To me, as someone, I guess at 92 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: this point you'd have to say I'm a veteran podcaster. 93 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: As strange as that sounds coming out of my mouth, 94 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: I'm not in the business of critiquing people. And the 95 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: one thing I encourage anybody to do, even if you're 96 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: not one of these people being featured on this episode, 97 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: is to not hesitate and try to put out your 98 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: own thoughts about the team, whether it's an audio or 99 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: written form. I know for some people, some people love 100 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: doing the podcasting and don't really have that inkling to 101 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 1: be a writer, and that's okay, I mean to me, 102 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: I think it's possible to do a little bit of both. 103 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: That there are some conversations that are best done on 104 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: this medium and others that really need to be done 105 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: written out to be properly put into context and to 106 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: inform people. But for anybody that is kind of on 107 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,479 Speaker 1: the fence, that follows this team closely and has their 108 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: own thoughts wants to put them out there, it's easier 109 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: than ever to start a podcast and dissiminate that and 110 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: get support for that. So I encourage anybody that's interested 111 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 1: in that that even if you're apprehensive, and if you 112 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: have any concerns about the quality of what you're doing 113 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: and you don't want to embarrass yourself, I mean, I've 114 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: been there, and I'd encourage anybody else to take that 115 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: leap and get started at any time, whether it's right now, 116 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: not the sexiest time of the year for sure, to 117 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: be getting started with the team. As I record this 118 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: nineteen games below five hundred. But there's never a perfect time. Really, 119 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: It's the perfect time is whenever you feel ready to 120 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: put yourself out there and yeah, help people enjoy this 121 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: team and help people better understand what's going on. The 122 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: first section, I just want to go through the podcast 123 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: that we're already quote unquote established entering this twenty twenty 124 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: one season podcast I've been falling for a number of 125 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: years to this point, Fish across the Ponds Salabby season 126 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: hosted by Peter Pratt and his UK Goats, as he 127 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: likes to call them. I think from the very first 128 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: episode it was Rob Nowell, Lee Dobbs, and Dan Healy. 129 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: And to this point Peter can correct me on this 130 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: that the four UK goats are him, Lee, Rob and 131 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: Sean Barrett, but he can double check me on that 132 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: they do an excellent, excellent job. They're from the United Kingdom, 133 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: all of them. Believe it or not, there is a 134 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: Marlin's Hub over there. These guys are so passionate about 135 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: the team. From the very first time I became familiar 136 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: with them, I believe their pod launched more than two 137 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 1: years ago, and they've come such a long way. I 138 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: was just teasing Peter about this a few hours ago, 139 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: somebling upon a clip from the very first episode, how 140 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: far they've come with the production, their chemistry with one another, 141 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: their interest in landing some special guests. They did a 142 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: bit big blowout for the one hundredth episode at this 143 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: point I might count, they're at one hundred and five episodes, 144 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: and so from number one hundred it was segmented into 145 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: I think a four part series with more than a 146 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 1: dozen different guests, including yours. Truly, so that was a 147 00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: great honor to be on with Peter, as I have 148 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: been several times, and he's been on this pod at 149 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: least once or twice, along with some of our other platforms. 150 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: I love what they've built surrounding the pod. Peter has 151 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: become somewhat of an entrepreneur when it comes to custom 152 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: t shirts that like memorialize just special moments in Marlin's history, 153 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: certain quotes and trends. He's all over that, so you 154 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: could check out his collection. I believe it's hosted on 155 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: te Spring with all those shirts, He's constantly updating that. 156 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: It's a great show. Episodes come out basically every single week, 157 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: usually on Tuesday evenings on the East Coast. Of course, 158 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: I'm on the East coast. Most of you are on 159 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: the East coast of the US, so you can expect 160 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: those pods to drop on Tuesday evening. It should be 161 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: available on just about every platform. I'm an Apple guy, 162 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: and I know it's on Apple, but it originally started 163 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: on Anchor. You should be able to get it wherever 164 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: you get your pod. Fish across the pond, fatp and again, 165 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: Peter Pratt is the one that's steering that ship. So Peter, 166 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: of course you made the top ten. That was a 167 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: no brainer sticking with these established pods. Locked On Marlins 168 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: hosted by Fish Stripes alum arm Leyden. He is up 169 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: to nearly two hundred episodes of that show, that believe, 170 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: if memory serves me right. He either started in twenty twenty, 171 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: I think early twenty twenty. Arms started the show maybe 172 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: late twenty nineteen, and it's outstanding. Frankly, arm does. He 173 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: and I are minds think very similarly. But he really 174 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: does have an eye for evaluating players that I don't 175 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: and that very few people do. He is amazing at 176 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: doing so. I mean, Lockdown Marlins is just one of 177 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: many content things that he does. He is a very 178 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: busy guy who has his eye on players all around 179 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: the baseball, not just the Marlins, although with this show, 180 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: Lockdown Marlins, it is focused on the Marlins, so he 181 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: gets you caught up on of course, the game's going 182 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: on on the field, but also a ton about what's 183 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,079 Speaker 1: happening on the farm system and putting into context where 184 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: the Marlins stands with the rest of the league on 185 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: a variety of different topics. Arm is also the founder 186 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: executive editor at Just Baseball, and part of their content 187 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 1: menu is a podcast that he co hosts with Jeff Conine, 188 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 1: the actual Jeff Conine, Mister Marlin, called Outside the Box 189 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: with Jeff Conine. So that just launched more recently during 190 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: this twenty twenty one season. That show itself, I'm just 191 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: giving it a plug, but it's not really on this 192 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: list because they do a good job of mostly staying 193 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: away from the Marlin stuff. You know, they've really tackled 194 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: the league as a whole, between the two big picture issues. 195 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: Of course, Jeff relates his playing career to some contemporary 196 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: issues in a very creative way. There have been some 197 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: awesome stories that came out of that show that they 198 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 1: also do so with Lockdown Marlin's New episodes at least 199 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: two or three times a week with Arm usually on weekdays, 200 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: and with Outside the Box with Jeff Conine that's usually 201 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: twice a week. They put that show out. That's just 202 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: a small offering of what aram does, so I just 203 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: encourage people just to follow Arham directly at arm Lateen 204 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: eight on Twitter to keep up with everything. He's got 205 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: a lot going on. And again another no brainer to 206 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: include on this pod about Marlon's pods. Next up, Swings 207 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: and Mishes. Another show that's been around for several years 208 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: at this point, Craig Mish and Jeremy Tashe. They've done 209 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: to this point one hundred and eighteen episodes for the 210 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: most part, once a week during baseball season. I think 211 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 1: to this point they usually have them come out on 212 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 1: Friday morning early afternoon is when you can find it. 213 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: Just like with Fish Across the Pond, Lockdown, Marlins, They're 214 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: available on pretty much every single plot platform. It's outstanding stuff. 215 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: I'm always listening to it pretty much as soon as 216 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: it drops. I make time on my Fridays to listen 217 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: to it within a few minutes of when it's available, 218 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: because this is just so plugged in but also so 219 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: honest and frank about what's going on with the team, 220 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: evaluating things, being able to tell us opportunities that they 221 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: didn't take advantage of, what did happen, what didn't happen, 222 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: What alternatives are being considered, whether they're pursuing certain players 223 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:43,640 Speaker 1: or anything. All Right, he is. He has his fingers 224 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: on the pulse of exactly what is going on inside 225 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 1: that Marlins organization at the highest levels. It's awesome. He's 226 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 1: very transparent and he likes he goes on the record 227 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: with his takes for better or worse, and you know what, 228 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: more than half the time he's right about stuff and 229 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: makes right call on these things. The show is outstanding. 230 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 1: They recently put on partnered with the Blue Wire Network 231 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: as well, so congrats to them on that step. Again 232 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: once week usually that show comes out, and right alongside that, 233 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: I'm counting this as its separate pod is Swings and 234 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,680 Speaker 1: Mishes and Espanol. They've done to this point, I think 235 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: forty five episodes that go back a couple of years, 236 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 1: co hosted by Danielle Alvarez Montes and Oscar Prieto Rojas. 237 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: And it's almost entirely in Spanish, as the name would suggest. 238 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: I'm not fluent in Spanish, but you know, umpoco, so 239 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: I listened to it quite a bit and just to 240 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: know what major topics out they're touching on, to catch 241 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: some interviews that they have with Hispanic players for sure, 242 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: like Haysusaguilar, Miguel Rojas, et cetera. And their main focus 243 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: is also on the Marlins, but also with some figure 244 00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 1: commentary about baseball in general. Two separate podcasts with swings 245 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: and messages in this finole. Yeah, just about once a 246 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: week they got new shows coming out as well, available 247 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: on all the same platforms. Be sure to yeah follow 248 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: them and out even outside of course what they do 249 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: on the pods with Jeremy, as I mentioned, part of 250 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: Bally Sports Florida with Mish everything that he already does 251 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 1: as well reporting on the Marlins, and also as just 252 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: a big presence in the fantasy sports community. With Danielle 253 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: at l Extra Basse doing a whole lot of writing 254 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: in multimedia coverage, especially with a focus on Hispanic players 255 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: and Venezuelan players. He's awesome. So I respect all these 256 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: guys a whole lot, and I would encourage you to 257 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: check out their pods. You probably do already. But the 258 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: point of this and putting all these guys on the 259 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 1: same episode is just to make sure that you have 260 00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: all those boxes checks and all those accounts subscribed to 261 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: and followed so that you don't miss anything that you 262 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 1: get from these guys Swimming Upstream from Fish on the Farm, 263 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: Fish on the Farm. Me and Alex carver Man, we 264 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: go back I think almost four full years at this point, 265 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: and he last year launched his own podcast to do 266 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: pretty regularly with Daniel Devivo. Swimming Upstream is the most 267 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: in depth coverage you can possibly want on Marlin's prospects. 268 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: I follow them quite a bit. If you've been along 269 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: Fish Stripes, you know that roster tracker that I keep 270 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: that has the active players on every single level of 271 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: the Marlins organization. We have our own farm reports, but 272 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: it's nothing compared to the kind of detail that they 273 00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: go into on this pod with Alex and Daniel Tavivo. 274 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: To this point, I think they've done twenty six episodes 275 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 1: together checking in on what's going on at all levels. 276 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: They especially Alex, he's a big advocate of performance and 277 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: taking notice of guys who perform at whatever level they're at, 278 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: why they're performing well, and when's the right time to 279 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: move them up in the organization. As we're recording this, 280 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 1: we're just coming off a flurry of a whole lot 281 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: of prospect promotions. This is probably Alex's one of his 282 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: favorite times a year to see all the recent players 283 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: moved up a level in the organization, from from Dax 284 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 1: Fulton and Yery Perez to the under the radar guys 285 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: like Antonio Vallez but another big name Jose Salas. Like 286 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: they do just a great job at preparing you for 287 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: when those guys are going to move up, why they're 288 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: moving up, what they need to work on. And Alex 289 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: is never shy about making player comps as well, you know, 290 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: giving us specific, specific ceiling representatives of what these players 291 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: could eventually become. And Daniel being bilingual, he does a 292 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: great job at keeping track of some of these Hispanic 293 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: players that otherwise kind of are kind of in the 294 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: dark about. Like he these he has had more than 295 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: a couple scoop about what's going on with some of 296 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,199 Speaker 1: these Marlins players as they were preparing for this very 297 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 1: unusual season. And this has been a super unusual season 298 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: at the minor league level coming off the canceled twenty 299 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: twenty And I can't say enough about what these guys 300 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 1: have done to stay on top of all of it 301 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: and prepare us for what's next. Subscribe to Swimming Upstream 302 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: again wherever you get your podcasts presented by Fish on 303 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: the Farm. And lastly in this group of established Marlins 304 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: pods is the Miami Marlins podcast themselves that's run by 305 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: the team. Overall, according to Apple, they are about to 306 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: close in on one thousand total episodes of Marlin's audio content. 307 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: During the season, it's mostly a joint effort between Kyle 308 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: Seeloff and Glenn Gefner, who are as you probably know, 309 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 1: they're the big radio voices as well, and they're the 310 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: ones that during the regular season you have these daily 311 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: Marlins rewinds that go up that highlight what happened in 312 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 1: the previous game, that passed along parts of the press 313 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: conferences with Don Manningley, and of course moving forward and 314 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: preview the next game as well with those guys. During 315 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,880 Speaker 1: the off season, they have the Hot Stove Show that's 316 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: once a week during the prime of the off season. 317 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: As it moves deeper after the Marlins mix moves and 318 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,199 Speaker 1: as they prepare for spring training, that's when they do 319 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: those beyond the Bases interviews. You'll remember some of this 320 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 1: past spring with six Do Sanchez, Edward Caprera, Anthony Bender 321 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: before he was really Bendermania and all that stuff, and 322 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:44,280 Speaker 1: most of those are hosted by Kyle, so it's obviously 323 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 1: run by the team. You need to be a little 324 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: you need to keep that in mind as you're listening 325 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 1: to it, that there are certain directions they won't take 326 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 1: that conversation how to respect to the organization and knowing 327 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 1: who ultimately pays the bills. But I finally do a 328 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: really all awesome job at finding useful information about these 329 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 1: players and keeping it fun without sounding too corporate. I 330 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: think it's still a very valuable resource. So I subscribe 331 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: to that. I listened to that during the off season 332 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: during the regular season as well, and I recommend that 333 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: you do the same. These established pods once again, Fish 334 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: across the Ponds, Locked on Marlins, Swings and Mishes, Swings 335 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: and Misses, and Espanol Swimming Upstream in the Miami Marlins podcast. 336 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: So all of them should be available wherever you get 337 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 1: your pods. If if you have any trouble finding them, 338 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 1: let me know, but I'll include the links so that 339 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: you could go to them directly to their Apple page 340 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: if that is where you do, in fact get your podcasts. 341 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: Some relatively new ventures. Again, we're filling out a top 342 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: ten here and I've only covered six so far, so 343 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: to finish that off with these new additions that have 344 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: emerged during the year twenty twenty one, we have fish 345 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: Bites from the Miami Herald. Now, if you remember, if 346 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: you've been part of the fish strips community for long enough, 347 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: you'll know that we used to call this regular podcast 348 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,199 Speaker 1: of ours fish Bites, and I changed it to the 349 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:20,679 Speaker 1: official show, I guess last year to distinguish ourselves, because 350 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: if you like, trace it back far enough, I think 351 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: the whole fish Bites idea actually came from my predecessor 352 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: at fish Drives, kind of trying to make a play 353 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: on words of the fish Bites columns that used to 354 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: come out in the Miami Herald, and so that was 355 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: nice while they lasted, but ultimately I wanted to be 356 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: more distinct about it, and I think that was all 357 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: for the best, because pretty soon now that the Herald 358 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 1: has gotten into the podcast game, they used this term 359 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: that they kind of already owned quote unquote themselves, fish 360 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 1: bites with a Y, and you could find that by 361 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: subscribing to the Herald sports account. So that's an important 362 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: thing to keep in mind. That they group together all 363 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:04,719 Speaker 1: their sports podcasts and you could subscribe to them all together. 364 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 1: So with Fish Bites that's hosted by Jordan McPherson, new 365 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 1: episodes come out usually first thing on Tuesday morning. To 366 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: this point, he's done twenty three episodes pretty much one 367 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: a week, going back to spring training, often collaborating with 368 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 1: veteran reporter Andre Fernandez talking about the Marlins as Jordan 369 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: being on the beat. There is nobody in the media 370 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: that spends more time around the Marlins than Jordan does. 371 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: He can't even debate that he is. On most of 372 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: those road trips. He shows up to the park super early, 373 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: he stays late, he does side projects in between. He 374 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 1: is as like as thorough of perspective on what's going 375 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: on with the team as anybody, So they weigh in 376 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 1: on how the team is performing, the latest injury updates, 377 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: the latest moves that get made, and what it all 378 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: means and putting it all into context. The touch of 379 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: course all the minor leagues as well as the major leagues. 380 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 1: And it's a really great program that just sprung up 381 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 1: this year. I hope they keep it going. It's tricky 382 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 1: to find to remember because you need to subscribe to 383 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: the Harold Sports podcast channel to get that it's part 384 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 1: of that where they fill it out with their pro football, 385 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: college football, Miami Heat basketball coverage, and more, all in 386 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: that same channel. Subscribe to that. Tuesday morning is when 387 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: they do new drops. The most recent episode so that 388 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 1: we're on the same page, is with him interviewing Eddie Alvarez, 389 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: the two time Olympic medallist, about that experience and his 390 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: goal of getting back to the major league level with 391 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: the Marlins. Great job by Jordan. I'm glad that the 392 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: Harold decide to make that leap into this content, and 393 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: I imagine that they're going to stay for the foreseeable 394 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 1: future because there are as they're finding out, certain things 395 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: that are easier to communicate on a pod that probably 396 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: don't translate as well to the paper itself. Also among 397 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: these new emerging podcasts, Fish and Whips, which is hosted 398 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 1: by Nick Alvarez. He's done during the season. I count 399 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: five episodes that he's done, and I've gracious to Nick. 400 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: He was one of the first guests that we brought 401 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 1: on our Fish Stripes live live stream as well. He 402 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 1: is actually he's not in Florida like me. He is 403 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 1: covering this team from out of state. He's enjoying this 404 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: team from out of state, A lifelong Marlins fan that 405 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: I believe the devil check is. I think he lives 406 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: in North Carolina right now, but he still follows the 407 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: team extremely closely. And he is an optimist, no doubt 408 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 1: about it. I enjoy having that perspective out there. I 409 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: guess you could put him and kind of Peter Pratt 410 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: in the same bucket. Both of them are relatively optimistic guys, 411 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 1: and I love that about them, saying consistent to that. 412 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 1: So with Nick, I encourage him to keep that going 413 00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 1: and for you guys to find fish and Whips again 414 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: that's whips as in you know, the stats whip. That's 415 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 1: abbreviated w hip and then he puts an S at 416 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: the end of that. And you can follow the pod 417 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: on Twitter at phish the letter N and Whips, Fish 418 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: and Whips on Twitter to keep up with new episodes 419 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: of that. Loud Marlins Fan is a new pod as well. 420 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 1: Chase is up to seven episodes of his podcast. You're 421 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: probably familiar with him on social media. It's it's pretty 422 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: self explanatory. He is loud about his fandom, A lifelong 423 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 1: not a life is he precedes the Marlins franchise. Actually, 424 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: for as long as the franchise has been around, Chase 425 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: has been a fan of the team. His signature phrase 426 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 1: lets Frickin' Go, with all those videos that he puts 427 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: out on social media prior to games after games, Let's 428 00:24:55,560 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 1: freakin Go, And he decided to launch his pod about 429 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: it as well, with his thoughts on everything from the trades, 430 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: from the way that certain physician battles are progressing, and 431 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 1: putting into context what the franchise has done before. As 432 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: somebody that has been a fan of the team since 433 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: its inception, he has a great memory for other situations 434 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 1: that have happened prior to this current iteration and how 435 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: the team can learn from those experiences what they should 436 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: try to emulate from earlier years of the franchise. With 437 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,720 Speaker 1: Loud Marlins Fan, I believe at this moment it's only 438 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 1: available on Anchor, so if you have Anchor subscribe to 439 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 1: him there, you could click the link on a desktop 440 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: to go to the Anchor page for Loud Marlins Fan 441 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 1: and find all the episodes right there. He launched a 442 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: show during the season, and it looks like he'll keep 443 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 1: it going for quite a while. So it's Nick and Chase. 444 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 1: Congrats to both of you guys on getting started with 445 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: this and I'm happy to support you to keep it 446 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: going during for this first doable future to cover the 447 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 1: Marlins yet another way for people to get caught up 448 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: and to hear your perspective an honest commentary on everything 449 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: that the Marlins do. Rounding out the top ten, we 450 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 1: have Mainline Marlins, which launched during spring training from the 451 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: Community Newspapers umbrella here in South Florida. They are up 452 00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: over one hundred episodes in one year. That's amazing. With 453 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 1: Tommy Stitt, he's the main guy who's been on almost 454 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: every show and oftentimes joined by David Winker. Their episodes 455 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 1: usually range what about ten to twenty minutes, usually in 456 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:53,439 Speaker 1: that range, available not just on podcasting platforms, but they 457 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 1: post them all on YouTube as well. They a nice 458 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: studio that they got there as part of Community Newspapers, 459 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: and they do a great job of turning it around 460 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: in extra record time. The show streams live usually on 461 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: Twitter and on YouTube among other places. It's just a 462 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: great variety program. I would say there are a lot 463 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 1: of episodes where it's Tommy and the guest or Tommy 464 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 1: and Dave talking about the latest Marlins games and storylines. 465 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: There are plenty of other times where they bring in guests, 466 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: bringing in personalities from Ballet Sports Florida, or from the 467 00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: Marlins radio operation, or from outside the Marlins orbit entirely, 468 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: but I'd say, you know, pretty much every episode touches 469 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: on what the Marlins are doing. It's just a great 470 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 1: variety of discussion points. They don't take themselves too seriously. 471 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: I love that, I'd say, probably even more so than 472 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: any of these other shows. They kind of put it 473 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 1: into perspective. They set their expectations relatively low for the 474 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 1: Marlins and kind of just enjoy all the good that 475 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 1: comes through and then don't get overreact to any one thing. 476 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: They keep it grounded, which I definitely appreciate in contrast 477 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: to some of these other shows. You know, that's the 478 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 1: whole point, is that we get this wide range of 479 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: viewpoints about the team and responses to kind of you 480 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 1: go through the same big events, and all these responses 481 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: can be different because they all have different perspectives, how 482 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: much they like what they really prioritize when evaluating things 483 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: that happen with the team, and also just the temperaments 484 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 1: of the host. The range of personalities across this top 485 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: ten is almost as much as you could hope for 486 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: to get people that see the game and see the 487 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: franchise in different lights. So the last episode that I 488 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: heard from Mainline Marlin so was July thirtieth, so or 489 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: almost three weeks move from that. I hope you guys 490 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,000 Speaker 1: are doing okay, because they were putting out shows almost 491 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: every single weekday all season long prior to that. I'll 492 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: check on that. I hope it keeps going because it 493 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: is a pretty valuable part, at least for me speaking selfishly, 494 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 1: part of my diet, my content diet is listening to 495 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: Tommy and David to talk about the team and bring 496 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: in range of guests to do the same. So I 497 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: encourage you to subscribe to that wherever you get your 498 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: podcasts as well, with the reminder that most of their 499 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: shows are also live streamed on video from a pretty 500 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: nice studio, so that's a nice change of pace if 501 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: you prefer to consume your podcasts in that form. My 502 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: full top ten of Marlin's podcasts, which of course does 503 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: not include fish stripes. You know, that's a taken, that's 504 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: a given in this circumstance, my top ten other Marlins podcasts, 505 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: Fish Across the Pond, Lockdown Marlins, Swings and Missies, Swings 506 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: and Misses, and Espanol Swimming Upstream, the Miami Marlins podcast, 507 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 1: Fish Bites from Miami Herald Sports, Fish and Whips, Loud 508 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: Marlins Fan and Mainline Marlins. If I'll try to do 509 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 1: this in the description to add links to all these 510 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: podcast pages to make it really easy for you to 511 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: find them and to listen to them throughout the rest 512 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: of the season, and I'm sure they'll have a lot 513 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 1: of off season content as well. It's almost split between, 514 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 1: of course, those established pods that have been around prior 515 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: to this year and others that I've just emerged here 516 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. I'm sure they'll be even more 517 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,959 Speaker 1: coming up after that. If anybody I missed that is 518 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 1: actively recording a podcast that has recorded something, you know, 519 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: in the last two months or so and is consistent 520 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: with it, I'd love to support them as well. I'd 521 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: love to make this a top twenty list, a top 522 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 1: thirty episode maybe at this time next year. That's the 523 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 1: goal is to have more and more people involved in 524 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: this space, so don't hesitate to let me know if 525 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: I overlooked somebody. If you have any questions about how 526 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: to launch your own pod, open ears to that as well. 527 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: You should know where to find me at this point, 528 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: either personally on Twitter at real Eli, on the fish 529 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: strips account, at fish Stripes and a variety of other 530 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: ways anywhere on the website. You should be able at 531 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: fishtripes dot com. You should be able to get my 532 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 1: attention over there if you want to discuss this further. 533 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: There's still some things missing, of course, despite this nice 534 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: range of personalities and formats and episode like paces and themes, 535 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: we're still missing women. I don't think there's any women 536 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: involved as hosts on this occasionally as guests, but that's 537 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: not representative of the fan base or baseball in general 538 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: at all. So I'd love to see that in particular, 539 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: if you are a woman out there that once again 540 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 1: involved in this space, I'll be as supportive as I can. 541 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: And we're missing black voices as well. I have some 542 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: minorities of course in here, but as you know, the 543 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 1: initiative that we're doing here on fish Stripes and in 544 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: fundraising for the Player's Alliance, I think that is essential 545 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: to representing the entire baseball community. So same thing. If 546 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: you are a black person out there that is passionate 547 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: about this team, that has ideas and has the willingness 548 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: to kind of do Marlin's coverage on a consistent basis, 549 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: do not hesitate to Let me know, this could be 550 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: an even stronger array of podcasting options out there, and 551 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: I want to do my part in helping that grow. 552 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: So thanks as always for listening with me, Eli Sussman. 553 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 1: I assume our next episode will be a little bit 554 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: more quote unquote normal Marlins analysis, but most of my 555 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: thoughts already out there about certain players that don't really 556 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 1: belong on the team right now, about certain position battles 557 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: that I'm most focused on. There's always something to cover, 558 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: you know. I could have put together thirty five forty 559 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 1: minutes about normal Marlin's talk right now. I always try 560 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 1: to find something that will keep you coming back. I 561 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: hope I'm doing a good job, but your feedback is 562 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 1: always encouraged and really appreciated. Hope you tune in next time. 563 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 1: Stay up to date with all of our stuff here 564 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 1: on the pod feed, with the small pods on weekday mornings, 565 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: and of course on Fish stripes. We have our Fish 566 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: Stripes live series preview streams. We have all our articles 567 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: from the staff, and much more. We'll do our best 568 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 1: to keep you guys engaged throughout this final quarter of 569 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty one regular season.
