Today’s episode has been legally certified as a doozy! I talk to Josh Wilker, the man behind the amazing Cardboard Gods, about game 5 of the 1999 American League Division Series.

Josh watched this game under a rather unique set of circumstances, which you will hear all about. You will also hear us talk about Pedro as Odysseus and/or Seinfeld character, the lost golden age of Nomar, and the speedbump of Troy O’Leary.
