Live from Bent Paddle Brewing Co.!

We took the show on the road and brought Swing and a Miss to Bent Paddle Brewing Co. in Duluth for a live recording. Boy, did it deliver! From beers in hand to a room of baseball fans to a baseball team owner, this one had everything. The kind of chaos that only happens when you put us in front of an audience. We talk ball, take some unexpected turns, and feed off a Duluth crowd that showed up ready to go. Enjoy and we hope to see you at the next one!

It’s thoughtful, honest, and full of the kind of context that may change how you watch the game.
