Episodios

  • "Mature eggs are the best" - Episode 10.44

    14/09/2018 Duración: 35min

    The Cubs had the opportunity to, if not lock up the division, create some real space between them and the Brewers this week.  That did not happen. On this episode, we share some of our frustrations, some of our concerns, and we offer some of the obvious explanations of why the Cubs have just not looked like themselves this season.  

  • Eat Zingers and Punch with the Rolls - Episode 10.43

    11/09/2018 Duración: 42min

    This Cubs/Brewers series at Wrigley will probably feel like playoff baseball.  The Cubs end (kind of) a miserable series in Washington DC and return to Wrigley for a 3-game set with the Brewers before they head back to DC for one game...and then back to Wrigley for a series with the Reds. On this episode, we share some general thoughts on the last week in Cubs baseball and talk about this weird week coming up.  

  • Don't Coach the Javy Out of Your Kids - Episode 10.42

    04/09/2018 Duración: 47min

    The calendar turns to September, the Cubs get some notable players back from injury, and the Cubs have an opportunity to stake their claim with the division.  We talk about the starting pitching the Cubs beat this week, the results from the Cubs starters recently, and of course...Javy.  

  • If This, Then That - Episode 10.41

    28/08/2018 Duración: 50min

    On this episode, we talk about the last week in Cubs baseball, which includes five wins, lots of runs, and the acquisition of Daniel Murphy.  

  • $100 Pants on Fire Fine - Episode 10.40

    20/08/2018 Duración: 54min

    After scoring four runs in a four-game series against the Pirates, and somehow splitting that series, we understandably express some frustration and confusion about this 2018 team.  But it's not all gloom and doom.  The Cubs have about six weeks to get things straightened out, and hopefully, that happens. 

  • "The jams are catching up" - Episode 10.39

    14/08/2018 Duración: 50min

    On this episode, we get caught up on the last week in Cubs baseball. David Bote hits the ball hard, especially when he hits walk-off grand slams.  Cole Hamels is pitching better than we expected.  Jon Lester comes back to earth.  Kris Bryant is taking dry swings.  And, you can hear crickets at Royals games.  

  • The Flip is Switched - Episode 10.38

    04/08/2018 Duración: 55min

    This episode has everything you know and love about Ivy Envy.  There's Javy love, optimism, misspeaking, rambling, and kids on the shed.  

  • Exclamation Points in the Rotation - Episode 10.37

    31/07/2018 Duración: 44min

    We recorded this episode less than 24 hours before the non-tender trade deadline.  On this episode, we talk about the addition of Cole Hamels and spend a lot of time talking about the pitching.  

  • Live at Raccoon Motel with Katie Day - Episode 10.36

    25/07/2018 Duración: 58min

    This episode was recorded live at Raccoon Motel in Davenport, Iowa.  Most likely, all Cubs teams for the rest of our lives will be compared to the 2016 Cubs.  So on this episode, we compare the 2018 Cubs to the 2016 Cubs.  We go over several similarities and differences between the two versions of the Cubs.   Then, we answer a few listener questions.  We end the episode by inviting Katie Day to the stage, and we have a conversation about her music, both the Cubs-centered songs, and the songs that have nothing to do with (but may be influenced by) the Chicago Cubs.

  • "That game was foof" - Episode 10.35

    23/07/2018 Duración: 47min

    The Cubs took 3 games of this 5-game series with the Cardinals, and we share some thoughts on the series.  We talk about the successful John Baker Day event and talk about the moves we think the Cubs should make at the trade deadline.  We also preview the upcoming series with the Diamondbacks.   Tickets to Katie Day w/ Ivy Envy at Raccoon Motel - https://www.eventbrite.com/e/katie-day-w-ivy-envy-tickets-47557054430

  • I'm a Javy Kid Now - Episode 10.34

    15/07/2018 Duración: 57min

    The Cubs will enter the All-Star Break in first place in the NL Central.  While the Brewers flounder, the Cubs take care of business in San Diego and take over the lead.  This episode was recorded Sunday morning, before the final game of the series with the Padres.  We talk about the series events so far, which of course includes Javier Baez doing Javy things.   Then, we shift our focus to the second half of the season and discuss some keys to the Cubs success in the second half.   Bid on The John Baker VIP Experience - https://www.32auctions.com/organizations/43791/auctions/53543/auction_items/1410009?v=4
