This week’s podcast guest is my favorite baseball player ever. Bradley Clapp and I shared a season together when I did play-by-play for the Hickory Crawdads in 2008. He was an awesome interview back then and nothing’s changed, even though he’s had to hang up his spikes.

Listen to the episode to hear him talk about life as a pro athlete, how technology has totally changed that life (Tinder?), and the time flirting with three pretty girls during a game cost him a promotion. Plus, Bradley offers a raw look at the emotional toll that retiring so young can take on an athlete.

Also, exciting news – the podcast is now on iTunes! Download, review, and subscribe right here.
