"Too Sense" - Sadly, I've decided to step back from the podcast full time... I know, I know, I'm sorry to make it so abrupt, but sometimes you have to make decisions in life. I explain in my intro that I sincerely hope it's not forever, I would love to come back to it at some point, maybe when I get settled again... I really appreciate ALL OF YOU for listening and supporting the show over the past 2 years and 106 episodes... Please listen to episodes you haven't heard yet as I will leave them up for you. Thank you all again for letting my voice be apart of your lives, and don't be a stranger, feel free to reach out to me any time... 

And hey, who knows, you may get an Emergency Too Tall episode when big things pop up!

"Too Sense" Segments: I have 2 for ya today...

1. Where the Golden State Warriors are as an organization now and why we should appreciate what they are doing, again... I dive into their recent success and why they are back on top.

2. A baseball creator on Tik Tok decided to NOT include Nolan Ryan in the Top 10 Pitchers of all time list... I decided to give my thoughts on why analytics are not telling the whole story about the HUMANS that play baseball... I know they help give us more information, but I explain why Nolan Ryan WAS arguably the most dominant pitcher of all time...

• How this current Angels team is doing so far and why they are contenders
• The Dodgers being so dominant despite early injuries
• Vin Scully's last game at Dodger Stadium and how important that win became

WE MADE IT TO 100 EPISODES!!!

- I truly can't thank everyone enough for supporting me, and listening to my guests and I every week, for the past 2 years... It's incredible to think about...

 I started this podcast just after the pandemic began on May 4th, 2020 and here we are 2 years later... Special shoutout to my close friends and family for believing in me and pushing me to continue to pursue this, and help turn it into a sports media career as well.

Shoutout to EVERY guest I've ever had on the show. It means a lot to me to be able to sit down with someone for an hour or so to get their story... Plus, I always want to do the necessary prep work to make each conversation flow smoothly and keep it fun every time, so I hope that shines through to you, the listeners...

I sincerely appreciate you all and let's see where we can take this thing next! 

Today's episode: is with my boy, Juan B. from the Max & Juan Cast... I had him on last year and he's the first repeat guest I've had on the show so far... 

- We discuss all things NFL Draft as they dove deep into it themselves on their show

- Plus, we hit some NBA playoff talk which was a lot of fun as well
