Rain Delay Theater

The last game of the year has Jack and Jeremy at Wrigley back to their old graphing ways, a continuation of the Pirates series really. The guys were on Kris Bryant watch and end up getting a ton of Rockies instead. The big story of this episode - the Gray Grapher is back and opens up in his own way to the guys. It's a jam-packed ending to the 2023 season of baseball and graphing. Many autos are obtained, a few snubs occur, and one player gets startled out of his jock strap by the Gray Grapher's booming autograph call!

The RDT boys head down to G-Rate Field for one last White Sox game of the season...luckily they sit by an old bonehead and his ma - he thinks Justin Fields blows! The guys also graph the entire Cubs/Pirates series and have a run in with another guy who blows, but it's NOT Justin Fields. An idiot has a message for Derek Shelton, Ji-hwan Bae disses Jack and Jeremy, there's goofballs at the Cubs lot, and Big Shawty returns! A lot going on here - tune in!

Jack and Jeremy collectively cover the entire Cubs/DBacks series without actually attending a game together. Lots of autographs were attained, but the Gray Grapher casts his crusty, sourpuss pallor over most of the weekend. Mike Fetters captures the guys' focus as he plays hard to get, Bob Brenly eludes, a Cubs bus driver disses Tony Perezchica, and restaurant tips are offered to players (and rejected!). There's a lot going on in this marathon episode - friends, weirdos, and Josh makes a cameo.

The stakes have never been higher (on the field, at least) as Jack and Jeremy recap the Brewers vs Cubs game from Monday, August 28 at Wrigley Field. It was WWE night at the park, and in addition to getting another Stone Cold Stunner from Craig Counsell at the bus, the guys dole out their usual sage parenting advice, have a run in with a Sigmund Freud lookalike, and encounter the most baffling custom jersey they’ve seen since, well, the last White Sox game they went to. Rain Delay 3:16 says, “Give this one a listen!”

After some time off, the guys are back with their recap of the Cubs/Royals game. This one is headlined by some pre-game graphing with Dennis (AKA: The Gray Grapher). Dennis is a cut up with the grapher boys down the line, but will he actually help anyone get an auto? We also have some altercations with bees, the Air & Water show is in town, and Jeremy gets crushed by a loud, idiot Royals fan by the bus and Jack suffers the consequences. Also, Jack and Jeremy give some tidbits from the Cubs/White Sox bus hang with some Sox-related run-ins!

Jack and Jeremy travel back to G-Rate Field to see the lowly White Sox taking on the equally lowly Yankees. The guys run into trouble before they even step foot inside the stadium when they have an altercation at the front gate with their tickets getting scanned. They chat it up with some Yankees nerds. And we also get our first loudmouth Sox fan this season. Hear all about the inane things he yelled at the game. Somewhere in there Jeremy also goes on a rant about people touching his phone. Enjoy!

This week, we bring you a collection of various events over the past few weeks in the lives of Rain Delay Theater. First, the guys discuss a special PSA card grading company event they attended the weekend of the National Sports Collectors Convention - it was a fancy affair that left the guys possibly underdressed but overfed. Next, we hear about Jeremy’s experience with Andre Dawson at the National as well as an additional autograph signing with former 70s pitcher, Buzz Capra. From there, the guys unite to graph at the Reds bus during their trip to Wrigley. Over the series, the guys attended all the games but separately. Several HUGE autographs were obtained and two new smash hit characters are introduced, so listen in to find out who! Jack and Jeremy both talk about their separate experiences with the Braves series and Jeremy talks about driving up to Milwaukee to see the Crew/Rox game. And a key auto was obtained there as well. Lots to discuss, so tune in and hear it all for yourself!

We did the whole damn series! Jack and Jeremy attend one Nats/Cubs game and then come back the next two nights and do the bus! The entire experience is overshadowed by the high school Nats fan, returning from last year - this time 1000% more annoying, privileged, and horrible! Tune in to hear his exploits over a three day period. Also, listen to find out what Nats player/coach had Jack and Jeremy coming back all three nights to get his auto. There's a couple drunk guys, a couple annoying guys, and some ruined autos. It's all here, listen now!

Just before the All-Star break, Jack and Jeremy head down to the White Sox for a quick game vs. the Cardinals. The guys try to graph, they run into some classic White Sox goofballs, and they actually see a competitive game? Find out who signs, find out who gets a Heater dog, and find out which crusty grapher the guys run into!

This week we have more fans in the aisles, some know-it-alls explaining quality starts, and a little kid who forced multiple people to kick some beers. But the big story is who the guys meet down by the bus...another HOFer...?...or maybe someone who some think should be in the HOF...? Tune in to find out!

Minor League Baseball is back on Rain Delay Theater as the guys drive up to Beloit, Wisconsin to see the Sky Carp take on the River Bandits! Lots of top draft picks and prospects in this one - see which ones Jack and Jeremy get, get twice, have to jump through hoops to get, or miss totally. There are a fair share of oddball fans, workers, and graphers met in this ep! And, as always, Poopsie is my wingman!

Get ready for another marathon (or normal, at this point) episode from the RDT guys as Jack and Jeremy take in two Cubs games vs. the Pirates and Orioles. A lot of autographs, a lot of weirdos and oddballs, and a lot of 6-run 6th innings for the Cubs! The guys sit next to a guy who may be in the Big Lebowski-verse, Jeremy throws a major Hail Mary to land a super vet on the Pirates, and the guys make Adley Rutschman laugh! We run back into Dennis, the Gray Grapher, who chastises Jeremy. A guy who was totally dumped on by the pod is graphed. And we meet a true bonehead who somehow missed Miguel Amaya and can't accept it - one of the truly funniest things to happen during our graphing sessions. Settle in and enjoy another mammoth ep!

So episode 200 came and went, but the guys wanted to go back and commemorate #200 in some way...so they just name 200 former and current baseball players. Most are actually named conversationally, so we do get a lot of random, scattered baseball talk throughout. Be sure to listen for the stories Jeremy tells about helping destroy the Declaration of Independence and the group of drunk creepy people at the Sunday Reds bus. Thanks for listening, folks!

We've made it to episode #200! And the guys have one of their longest episodes yet! We get a two-part update about Jack's "Nacho Melt-down" (part 1 - 10:15; part 2 - 1:14:10)! We also hear about a major auto score from Jack solo (2:13:45)! In addition to that, the guys have encounters with Kate Upton, Tommy Pham, and Drew Smyly! We meet a new sourpuss grapher, a drunk hobbit, and an Irish concession gatekeeper. It was a frenzy down at the Reds bus and a star-studded Mets hang. Thank you for listening to 200 of these ridiculous episodes! Love, Jack and Jeremy, two autograph mavens!

For the first time in 2023, Jack and Jeremy take in a White Sox game together. This was a weekday afternoon tilt between the Southsiders and the Cleveland Guardians - talk about low profile. Will there be enough weirdos in the stands for the guys to talk about? Will Jack and Jeremy be able to get any autos inside the stadium? Will the White Sox find a way to sadly lose this game? We know the answer to at least two of those...but still tune in to find out for yourself!

Jack and Jeremy bring you a minisode in this latest installment of the pod. The guys spend two days graphing the Cardinals bus and the Cubs parking lot during their series at Wrigley Field on May 8th and 9th. Jeremy is on full Willson Contreras watch and Jack is trying to tie up some loose ends. Who do the guys get? Is it someone from their over/under predictions? Tune in to find out! And watch for a new full-length episode dropping later this week!

This week, the guys head to Wrigley to see the major league debut of Matt Mervis and the home debut of Miguel Amaya! They talk about how the people in front of them stood up during both of their first ABs, yay! The guys also have some wild graphing experiences over a two day period, including the return of Josh and friends, an ultimate Jazz Chisholm fake out, and getting the autograph of a member of the 2016 World Champion Cubs team! Tune into this jam-packed episode that covers the 5/5 game and the bus hang on 5/6! Autos and weirdos galore!

Jack and Jeremy bring you an episode of odds and ends, highlighted by two Padres bus hangs on 4/25 and 4/26. The guys encounter a crazy barricade jumper, the loudmouth Padres fan from last year, and an off-putting former Cardinals manager. Jeremy also has a solo Cubs parking lot experience and a couple brutal close calls and snubs. Finally, the guys talk about their back-to-back separate first White Sox games of the year and give some updates about the sidewalk beer sellers and some food favorites. We also hear some predictions about the guys' upcoming Cubs/Marlins game this week.

What is this? A baseball gameplay heavy episode? Well, when you almost see a perfect game, I guess you have to talk about it. Jack and Jeremy come at you this week to recap the near-perfect performance by Drew Smyly vs. the LA Dodgers - we talk at length about the game and the atmosphere up top! But then we also manage to find time to flame a fan, this time one who donned a sad floppy hat. And as good as the game was, the Dodgers bus was just as bad. Tune in for hear it all!

The over/under predictions are in for the 2023 season and Jack and Jeremy are here to bring them all to you this week! Cubs, White Sox, Brewers, and autograph over/unders are discussed. Miles Mastrobuoni, Eric Hosmer, bus regulars, and "instant ink" are just a few of the topics featured in our predictions, tune in and follow along all season!
