Description
Living in Canada and being a sports fan means you are used to your teams being overlooked. Canadian actors with mixed reviews, Jakob Ehman and David Patrick Flemming met on stage playing Shakespearean archenemies and now channel their love of all things Toronto Blue Jays. With new episodes daily, Underdogs is a must-listen for people looking for a different spin on the sports world, an experience the “insiders” can’t give you. Their signature Game Diary segments, a personal experience of the game set to new music Jakob makes every day, quickly became a fan favourite. Raw, unfiltered and darkly comedic with the creative production value to boot, David and Jakob give you the sports show only made possible by being the "outsiders" with nothing to lose.

The return of the Jays to Toronto, of course. Marcus Semien and his 95% chance of re-signing news, yes. The upcoming run to the playoffs, duh.

It's the day after World Milk Day and we have our very first guest on Underdogs! Not only that, we bring back THE GAME DIARY after receiving a package from RATESDOTCA and unboxing it with ASMR live. It's A+ content from beginning to end today listeners. Jameson Berkow, Managing Director at RATESDOTCA legitimately comes on the show and we clear the milk on the Jeff ads. We also pitch him some of our own original ads for the next freshly milked campaign. After Jameson leaves we race against the clock to discuss Charlie Montoyo and his bullpen before the new zoom timer or Hantavirus kills us.
ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, MDMA, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, GARFIELD, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH, ALEK MANOAH.
Instead of killing yourself, listen to this. It could really turn things around for you just like it did for us when we recorded it. Also, listen to the end for an announcement of our insane first guest of the show that will join us next episode.
An episode in which we rage about the freshly milked jeff ads, role play improvise a conversation between Bryce Harper and Joe Girardi, rehash the idea of trading Lourdes Gurriel Jr and imagine a nightmare of playoff baseball vs the Yankees... in Buffalo, NY.
Reading this and trying to decide whether it's worth it or not to listen to this edition of Underdogs? Do you have something better to do? Can you do it AND listen to Underdogs? Looking for the best takes on Blue Jays or are you looking for something to help you drift away to sleep tonight? This episode is both. It's really amazing, maybe the best episode of Blue Jays content there is. Or maybe it isn't...but it doesn't matter because you just need more people talking so you don't have to listen to your own thoughts. Enjoy!
