Description: Upon learning that beloved Red Sox announcer Don Orsillo would not be re-signed, our host Bram Weinstein spun into a self-described career crisis. “Do sportscasters matter anymore? Do we exist? I don’t know, I’m sitting my basement!” Our resident Red Sox fanatic Marc Sterne chimes in and then gets Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald on the phone for a deep dive on the entire Orsillo/NESN debacle. Then, Bram and Marc get into the cops trolling a crazy Alabama fan, and finally, they muse about Chip Kelly restoring swagger at “The U.” Drake is invoked. Let us know what you think of the show.
