What began as a podcast about the Red Sox and Yankees has become so much more. Whether it's focused on the legendary Sox-Yanks rivalry, Sabermetrics or sobriety, Brian Shactman and John Senecal elevate the conversation. These two SuperFans -- one Boston, one New York -- have been in the stands or press box for some of sports' greatest moments, and their perspective will give you plenty to think and talk about.
