Whales On Parade (Hour 2) Jul 30, 2026

Show notes

(00:00-19:53) Joined by Cardinal broadcaster Brad Thompson getting his take on ham salad. Getting Brad's take on the Cardinals' skid as of late. Pulling out a win late last night. Seems like maybe Dustin May will be getting traded after getting pulled last night. What kind of return could May bring? PCA's pimp job. Does it bother opposing players? Trade deadline looming.

(20:01-43:13) Was Iggy offered job at The Fan in Toronto? Article in The Oregonian makes it sound like Portland fans are getting a little worried. The scene at Pietro's gives Papers the willies. Wake up and explode. TMA Food Crawl. Whales On Parade. North side or south side food? The scene at the Wendy's by 44. An offer to golf with Robert Thomas.

(43:23-44:20) We're behind so we're gonna do a quick one before Trevor Rosenthal.

We Will Not Go Quietly Into The Tube (Hour 1) Jul 30, 2026

Show notes

(00:00-39:52) Everybody just take a deep breath. Folksy Doug listening to traffic updates. Weather vanes. Big win for the Redbirds. Maybe Dustin May will wanna stay now. Audio of Ivan Herrera's game winning hit in the 10th. PCA's HR in the 10th was a gut punch. Papers left the game in the 8th. Very Strodesy. Audio of a rabid Cubs fan live streaming the game last night. Hologram Guy. Welcome back to Middle School Boys. Rank the Baldwins. I like Scott and Art. Jock straps are folksy. Would you rather have three nipple or one? Eric in the CWE checking in on the phone lines. Eric is pro pedicure. Pressure and gunk. Chaser forced Martin to get a pedicure. Is TMAU an ACT or SAT school? Still want the Blazers to come home.

(40:00-1:03:37) The article in The Athletic this morning does mention St. Louis & The Trail Blazers. Lots of Trail Blazers, NBA, and STL talk.

(1:03:47-1:27:17) Playing tunes, dude. Trevor Rosenthal will be in-studio around 9:30. Ray King on the phone lines and just like that he's gone and has been suspended. More Blazers to STL discussion. Doug's skeptical. Chuck & Girl are on the phone lines. On the way to the Smokey Mountains. Chuck's fiancee isn't necessarily a fan of the show. Chuck wants to kick her out of the car. Never enough dudes. Mr. Lix is up next. The Chuck & Girl called frightened him. Lix still hasn't made any comments on LIV yet. Ham salad. Not happy with Doug's stance on the NBA to STL.
