You can hear it from Miller’s voice that he is gay!

Yo, this was a phenomenal podcast. You’re such an excellent host, Carson. Props for being able to do this on a consistent basis without being guilty of seeming repetition.

Sam Miller is a stupid good guest too. Very witty and clever dude.

I met Carson and Sam at the SABR convention in Long Beach, CA this past July and I want to let other listeners know that both these stud muffins are just as funny, and affable as you’d expect them to be from these audio episodes. Maybe even moreso??

Anyways, I especially enjoyed the part of the podcast where you guys just kinda philosophize on the dynamic qualities of life (egs conversation threads with fathers, energy levels after early 20s).

I feel like you, Carson, partake in those topics, although very briefly, at times with Dave Cameron too. Those are the podcasts that I enjoy the most because I do like getting to know you foolios in addition to the usual expert analysis and insight that we’ve come to expect from FanGraphs.

Alright, that’s all I got. Keep up the good work, Carson.

PS Don’t ever do that audio splicing ish or whatever it is that you did in that chess episode. That ish was mad confusing and made the transitions seem jarring, unnatural even.

K, love you homie.

Shout out to Dayn Perry, Brad Woodward, and other cool folk.
