Episode 134
Mr. Aaron Gleeman is world famous, both for his contributions to NBC’s Hardball Talk and for his longstanding blog AaronGleeman.com.

Carson Cistulli has published a book of aphorisms called Spirited Ejaculations of a New Enthusiast.
would you consider doing a podcast on great drunks in baseball history? i saw in modern drunkard that february was when a number of states ratified the 18th ammendment, so it’s apropos to the season…
I go to the University of MN and their paper is total trash. They don’t even try and hide their biases.
As a recent graduate, I totally agree. I’m pretty disappointed at the rest of the country that the Daily is ranked as one of the top campus papers nationwide.
Also, you guys make it sound like watching the Twins is on the same level as getting a root canal. Maybe it is if you dislike Dick and Bert as much as Aaron has said he does, but I’m more inclined to believe you can take a mulligan on last year.
I in graduate school there now and I also agree. It is a terrible newspaper.
Bert would be listenable if it weren’t for Dick.
