	Description:		We speak to Tim Burke, formerly of Deadspin and the writer who broke the Manti Te'o story ahead of ESPN and now the story has become part of the Netflix doc (Untold) Tim goes back in time to discuss how he discovered, wrote and published that story and the reaction that he could not see coming - including - becoming a regular guest on CNN as the story became viral and one of the most elaborate stories in sports history. Later (22:00) we catch up with Colby Armstrong on many hockey topics from Phil to Sid The World Cup and the worst dressing rooms in hockey. Ahead of that - he was blown away by the previous guest and gives his take on the Manti Te'o doc that he just recently watched as well. We finish with Jared Carrabis (36:00) on life in last place with the Red Sox and why that's a good thing. His wild living room setup with 11 televisions for baseball games and why he has close eye on the Blue Jays and loves their offence down the stretch.
