Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about Ben’s voice and the potential for an ambidextrous famous person who blends the ability units of Shohei Ohtani and Pat Venditte, then talk about all of the implications of the Angels (and some different groups) putting distinguished gamers on outright waivers proper earlier than the deadline for postseason eligibility. After that (44:43), they speak to Death Cab for Cutie and The Postal Service frontman Ben Gibbard about his beloved Mariners’ surge into first place, his relationship with this Mariners group, his ideas on the postseason area and the brand new guidelines, his upcoming two-way-player tour that includes full performances of Transatlanticism and Give Up, and extra, plus (1:31:29) a Future Blast from 2053.
