Latest Episodes:

BONUS POD: Jerry’s Yankees fall to Matt’s Dodgers in the World Series Oct 31, 2024

It’s a bonus edition of Throwbacks as Matt – who was in the Bronx for Game 5 – basks in the glory of a Dodgers championship while Jerry recedes into the darkness of a Yankees meltdown.

The guys share their thoughts on all angles of this year’s World Series – from the raw emotion of the final out to one of the most disastrous innings in baseball history. Plus, we wonder what uniform Juan Soto is most likely to be wearing in 2025; could it possibly be the uniform of the team that just defeated him? And Jerry tells us how he managed to cope with the Yankees loss and when he thinks he’ll be ready to start thinking about baseball again.

New episodes of Throwbacks drop every Thursday. Make sure you’re subscribed on YouTube and following on all podcast platforms. Also, make sure you’re locked in on social @ThrowbacksShow on all platforms for highlight moments, bonus content, and to engage with the guys & the Throwbacks community.
