Can one of you guys give me a history lesson on the Mikie Mahtook #8 story? How this became a yearly ritual, giving the #8 to a player, etc.

J Mitch is the best one on that podcast. Lloyd has the maturity of a 12 year old boy. Mikey is okay. I think he would be better if Lloyd weren’t around.

Lloyd is the biggest try hard in BR media.

Does anyone watch the Tingle show? That thing seems super cringe. Noah seems better than that show.

Not sure Try Hard is the best way to describe Lloyd

Lloyd is pretty bad as an on air person. He is actually kinda pathetic.

JMitch is very good and getting better.

Mikey, love the guy, but... It seems like he should be able to get more info than he does. I listen often during baseball, but I do not always get much info from that show.

I was a student at LSU at the same time Lloyd. He would wear a Patrick Peterson jersey under his shirt literally at all times in case he ran into him so he could get it signed. Dude was weird. Dedicated. But weird.

The Tingle show is okay. Something to listen to, I guess. Do not like the new name though and the "Two Clap" segment is pretty cringe.

Wait a minute, Lloyd is like 34-35 years old? I thought he was fresh out of college. How sad that he’s an adult acting like a kid? It’s time to grow up.

I like Tingle & Co and don’t find the two clap segment cringey at all compared to some of the things they do on OTB. I will say that OTB has improved since Flynn stepped in for T-Bob.

Since Lloyd is reading this and taking suggestions, how about somebody tells Mikie that questions shouldn't be 5 minutes long

There are few things I know for certain in this life, but one of them is there’s no doubt Lloyd posts on TD. Hell, he’s probably posting in this thread.
