## Resource

This episode loses the plot quickly and Steve turns it into things he can't stand. It gets very "Get off my lawn" fast. As a listener, you will love it for all the reasons why Steve is great (or not great) at podcasting. You get Jonathan's righteous indignation and Mark just tries to make sense of things. MLB, NFL, and NBA gripes abound.
