Well... this was a pretty cool one, folks. J-Rob was fortunate enough to be joined on the pod by Jordan Shusterman, half of Cespedes Family BBQ on Twitter, the Baseball BBQ podcast on The Ringer and a full-time content creator for Fox Sports. More importantly, he’s the hero that D3 Baseball always needed, having started the Podcast About Division III Baseball back in 2018. The two gents touched on a wide range of topics, including:
· Rapid Fire!
· The MLB Trade Deadline and why it’s so easy/fun to hate the Yankees at this time of year
· Jordan’s beloved Mariners and their emotional last week, and a fantastic Cal Raleigh tangent
· The early years of the BBQ and the changes Jordan has observed in the baseball podcasting landscape over time
· How Jordan views the future of his sports media career and why he doesn’t have much of a “five-year plan”
· A Yoenis Cespedes dialogue and the future of the name “Cespedes Family BBQ”
· The beauty of D3 baseball and why it’s such a fun challenge to cover
· …and a finishing tribute to Swarthmore Baseball and how excited we both are for them to get back on the field in 2022!!
