Rain Delay Theater

Jack and Jeremy travel back to G-Rate Field to see the lowly White Sox taking on the equally lowly Yankees. The guys run into trouble before they even step foot inside the stadium when they have an altercation at the front gate with their tickets getting scanned. They chat it up with some Yankees nerds. And we also get our first loudmouth Sox fan this season. Hear all about the inane things he yelled at the game. Somewhere in there Jeremy also goes on a rant about people touching his phone. Enjoy!

This week, we bring you a collection of various events over the past few weeks in the lives of Rain Delay Theater. First, the guys discuss a special PSA card grading company event they attended the weekend of the National Sports Collectors Convention - it was a fancy affair that left the guys possibly underdressed but overfed. Next, we hear about Jeremy’s experience with Andre Dawson at the National as well as an additional autograph signing with former 70s pitcher, Buzz Capra. From there, the guys unite to graph at the Reds bus during their trip to Wrigley. Over the series, the guys attended all the games but separately. Several HUGE autographs were obtained and two new smash hit characters are introduced, so listen in to find out who! Jack and Jeremy both talk about their separate experiences with the Braves series and Jeremy talks about driving up to Milwaukee to see the Crew/Rox game. And a key auto was obtained there as well. Lots to discuss, so tune in and hear it all for yourself!

We did the whole damn series! Jack and Jeremy attend one Nats/Cubs game and then come back the next two nights and do the bus! The entire experience is overshadowed by the high school Nats fan, returning from last year - this time 1000% more annoying, privileged, and horrible! Tune in to hear his exploits over a three day period. Also, listen to find out what Nats player/coach had Jack and Jeremy coming back all three nights to get his auto. There's a couple drunk guys, a couple annoying guys, and some ruined autos. It's all here, listen now!

Just before the All-Star break, Jack and Jeremy head down to the White Sox for a quick game vs. the Cardinals. The guys try to graph, they run into some classic White Sox goofballs, and they actually see a competitive game? Find out who signs, find out who gets a Heater dog, and find out which crusty grapher the guys run into!

This week we have more fans in the aisles, some know-it-alls explaining quality starts, and a little kid who forced multiple people to kick some beers. But the big story is who the guys meet down by the bus...another HOFer...?...or maybe someone who some think should be in the HOF...? Tune in to find out!

Minor League Baseball is back on Rain Delay Theater as the guys drive up to Beloit, Wisconsin to see the Sky Carp take on the River Bandits! Lots of top draft picks and prospects in this one - see which ones Jack and Jeremy get, get twice, have to jump through hoops to get, or miss totally. There are a fair share of oddball fans, workers, and graphers met in this ep! And, as always, Poopsie is my wingman!

Get ready for another marathon (or normal, at this point) episode from the RDT guys as Jack and Jeremy take in two Cubs games vs. the Pirates and Orioles. A lot of autographs, a lot of weirdos and oddballs, and a lot of 6-run 6th innings for the Cubs! The guys sit next to a guy who may be in the Big Lebowski-verse, Jeremy throws a major Hail Mary to land a super vet on the Pirates, and the guys make Adley Rutschman laugh! We run back into Dennis, the Gray Grapher, who chastises Jeremy. A guy who was totally dumped on by the pod is graphed. And we meet a true bonehead who somehow missed Miguel Amaya and can't accept it - one of the truly funniest things to happen during our graphing sessions. Settle in and enjoy another mammoth ep!

So episode 200 came and went, but the guys wanted to go back and commemorate #200 in some way...so they just name 200 former and current baseball players. Most are actually named conversationally, so we do get a lot of random, scattered baseball talk throughout. Be sure to listen for the stories Jeremy tells about helping destroy the Declaration of Independence and the group of drunk creepy people at the Sunday Reds bus. Thanks for listening, folks!

We've made it to episode #200! And the guys have one of their longest episodes yet! We get a two-part update about Jack's "Nacho Melt-down" (part 1 - 10:15; part 2 - 1:14:10)! We also hear about a major auto score from Jack solo (2:13:45)! In addition to that, the guys have encounters with Kate Upton, Tommy Pham, and Drew Smyly! We meet a new sourpuss grapher, a drunk hobbit, and an Irish concession gatekeeper. It was a frenzy down at the Reds bus and a star-studded Mets hang. Thank you for listening to 200 of these ridiculous episodes! Love, Jack and Jeremy, two autograph mavens!

For the first time in 2023, Jack and Jeremy take in a White Sox game together. This was a weekday afternoon tilt between the Southsiders and the Cleveland Guardians - talk about low profile. Will there be enough weirdos in the stands for the guys to talk about? Will Jack and Jeremy be able to get any autos inside the stadium? Will the White Sox find a way to sadly lose this game? We know the answer to at least two of those...but still tune in to find out for yourself!

Jack and Jeremy bring you a minisode in this latest installment of the pod. The guys spend two days graphing the Cardinals bus and the Cubs parking lot during their series at Wrigley Field on May 8th and 9th. Jeremy is on full Willson Contreras watch and Jack is trying to tie up some loose ends. Who do the guys get? Is it someone from their over/under predictions? Tune in to find out! And watch for a new full-length episode dropping later this week!

This week, the guys head to Wrigley to see the major league debut of Matt Mervis and the home debut of Miguel Amaya! They talk about how the people in front of them stood up during both of their first ABs, yay! The guys also have some wild graphing experiences over a two day period, including the return of Josh and friends, an ultimate Jazz Chisholm fake out, and getting the autograph of a member of the 2016 World Champion Cubs team! Tune into this jam-packed episode that covers the 5/5 game and the bus hang on 5/6! Autos and weirdos galore!

Jack and Jeremy bring you an episode of odds and ends, highlighted by two Padres bus hangs on 4/25 and 4/26. The guys encounter a crazy barricade jumper, the loudmouth Padres fan from last year, and an off-putting former Cardinals manager. Jeremy also has a solo Cubs parking lot experience and a couple brutal close calls and snubs. Finally, the guys talk about their back-to-back separate first White Sox games of the year and give some updates about the sidewalk beer sellers and some food favorites. We also hear some predictions about the guys' upcoming Cubs/Marlins game this week.

What is this? A baseball gameplay heavy episode? Well, when you almost see a perfect game, I guess you have to talk about it. Jack and Jeremy come at you this week to recap the near-perfect performance by Drew Smyly vs. the LA Dodgers - we talk at length about the game and the atmosphere up top! But then we also manage to find time to flame a fan, this time one who donned a sad floppy hat. And as good as the game was, the Dodgers bus was just as bad. Tune in for hear it all!

The over/under predictions are in for the 2023 season and Jack and Jeremy are here to bring them all to you this week! Cubs, White Sox, Brewers, and autograph over/unders are discussed. Miles Mastrobuoni, Eric Hosmer, bus regulars, and "instant ink" are just a few of the topics featured in our predictions, tune in and follow along all season!

We have a jam-packed deluxe episode this week as the guys attend the Cubs vs. Rangers game at Wrigley Field, have some mishaps at the bus, and then return a few days later for the Mariners bus. We have a couple mistaken identity autos, an embarrassing attempt by Jeremy to talk to a player, and The Fulmer Promise. We also see a pained Scott Servais, a futuristic Jarred Kelenic, and the man himself, J-Rod, Julio Rodriguez signs at the bus...but listen to find out who gets him and who doesn't! There's quite a lot this week, so listen at your own speed.

The 2023 season has begun and we are back at the ballpark in time for David Ross to gift Jack a Brewers victory for his birthday. The guys give their thoughts on the term “Federal Landmark”, we meet a Navy man who is repping the westside, and Jeremy has to ask a guy to move out of his view of home plate. After the game, the guys graph at the notoriously stingy Brewers bus - tune in to see if they were able to break through to Craig Counsell and co. Finally, we wrap up at the Cubs parking lot with a trio of unsupervised little kids flagging down Cubs players for autos and the guys have a weird and funny interaction with them. Baseball is back, baby!!! (Said in full George Costanza voice!)

With the NCAA Tournament underway, Jack and Jeremy discuss the best baseball players to come from each team in the Sweet 16. And while Jack was immersed in college basketball, Jeremy runs down an exciting WBC tournament thus far!

This week, Jack and Jeremy are talking WBC running down each country and picking a famous "mascot" to represent each country's team. These are people/celebrities (or objects?) that the guys feel could represent each country at the WBC games. Are there some offensive picks? Maybe. Are there lots of personal anecdotes including a story of how Jeremy lived across the hallway from an Oscar winner? You better believe it!

It’s that time of year again as the annual Non-Roster Invitee episode is upon us for 2023! Jack and Jeremy run down the list of notable invitees to spring training this year, Jeremy drops some bad tv and movie puns, an old story about Danny Duffy is rehashed, and we find out Jack is not a fan of the Coen Brothers (what???). All this and more as the countdown to the 2023 season continues!
