Continuucast 10: BIZARRE BASEBALL CULTURE looks at "X Minus One: Martian Sam"

BIZARRE BASEBALL CULTURE returns to the Baseball Continuum Continuucast, as Dan covers "Martian Sam" of the 1950s science fiction radio series, X Minus One. And then, more details on Dan's Fallout 4 baseball mod!

Continuucast 9

The 9th Continuucast, now able to fill a NL starting lineup! First, Dan talks to Stacey Gotsulias (and her cat) about the Yankees, New Yankee Stadium, the super-expensive seats in said stadium, the possibility that baseball may one day have ads on uniforms, baseball's attempts at broadening it's fanbase, and more. Big thanks to Stacey, who can be followed on Twitter at @StaceGots! Next, Dan give his opinions on Jim Leyland being hired for Team USA in 2017. Finally, Dan previews the next Continuucast, and makes a special announcement about another area that the Baseball Continuum is expanding into! Fans of BIZARRE BASEBALL CULTURE will want to hear this! Music/Sounds Featured: “The National Game” by John Phillip Sousa "Here Come The Yankees" The World Baseball Classic Theme “Flight of the Bumblebee” (AKA The Green Hornet Theme) by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov performed by the US Army Band (special “Bizarre Baseball Culture” remix by Dan Glickman featuring the Pablo Sanchez Theme and clips from previous and future Bizarre Baseball Culture pieces) The Theme from Fallout 4 All sound and music used is either public domain or is a short snippet that falls under fair use.

Continuucast 8: Seth Stohs

It's a Minor League Baseball installment of the Continuucast! First, Dan talks to Twins' prospect expert Seth Stohs about the Minnesota, the Rochester Red Wings, Minnesota's farm system in general, and the appeal of Minor League Baseball. Please note that I had some technical difficulties during the conversation, but I have used software to clean it up and make it as good-sounding as I can. Apologies! Then, Dan does another belated "30 Teams, 30 Posts" by talking about how Trevor Story's amazing first week with the Rockies in some ways is proof of just how fun and unexpected the minor leagues are, since they can provide great surprises even from non-top prospects like Story! Come back next week when Dan will welcome the "Evil Empire" onto the Continuucast and speak to Yankees Blogger Stacey Gotsulias! Music/Sounds Featured: “The National Game” by John Phillip Sousa "We're Gonna Win Twins" The instrumental music played in the background of Rochester Red Wings commercials Excerpt of “Pennant Fever” from the Major League soundtrack All sound and music used is either public domain or is a short snippet that falls under fair use.

Continuucast 7: 2016 Season Opening EXTRAVAGANZA!

Dan Glickman opens up the 2016 MLB Regular Season with a Continuucast with a record THREE guests, and also gives his season predictions! First (at 3:10 in the podcast), Dan talks to Eric Stephen of True Blue LA about the Dodgers, covering their spring injury bug, Corey Seager, Vin Scully, and several other topics. Then (at 23:24), Dan welcomes Travis Sarandos of Brew Crew Ball, BP Milwaukee and the "Dingers, Doubles and Drunks" podcast. They talk about the Brewers, whether Braun and/or Lucroy will be traded, the NL Central in general, the many excellent prospects on the way to Milwaukee, and whether Travis had any idea that his article theorizing that Hank the Ballpark Pup had been replaced would end up becoming so big. The final guest (at 42:55) is Michael Clair of MLB.com's Cut4 and formerly of Old Time Family Baseball! The two talk the MLB season, how awesome Opening Day is, Michael's beloved Pittsburgh Pirates (and how he fell in love with them), give their championship predictions, and complain about how disappointing the Batman vs. Superman movie was (SPOILER ALERT!). Finally (at 1:18:19), Dan gives his season predictions for Major League Baseball in 2016! They will almost certainly be wrong, but now you have a recording to keep him from claiming otherwise.
