Episode 014: Good Bants
Matthew and Toby return from a week away to mark the end of the first quarter of the 2016 season and revisit predictions from Battery Mates Nation. The boys celebrate the 23rd anniversary of one of the greatest moments in baseball history, and Matthew bemoans the lack of Good Bants™ at ballparks. Thus the world gets to witness the debut of two new bants hot and fresh out of Matthew's kitchen, and he promises to take requests. Toby attempts some half-hearted empathy with Hillary for America email director (and Nationals fan) Amanda Litman. During the discussion, it becomes clear Matthew doesn't know that Beyoncé and Taylor Swift are different people, and all parties discover that Drew Storen might be a lot less to blame for the Nationals' 2012 postseason woes than initially believed.
