Not Another Sox PodcastGroundhog Truck Day feat. Emmy Award Winner @SeaDogsMark | S26E1We will be releasing this episode every day for the next 33 years, the same amount of time that Bill Murray was presumably stuck in Groundhog's Day. Which is stupid because if the writers of Groundhog's Day knew anything it's that Bill Murray presumably would have been stuck in Groundhog's Day for 6 weeks.
That being said, Jordan Hicks improved the Red Sox today. He now plays for the White Sox. Thanks Breslow, you never let us down!
Oh yeah and we are joined by Emmy award winner @SeaDogsMark. Sponsor us, Smirnoff Ice!
