Starting the show with 3Things, Steve and Don jump right into the baseball playoffs, talk about OBJ's immaturity, and debate if Connor McDavid is ready to wear the C. The book club is potentially out of control, loaded with books, and full of giveaways. The podcast ends with Don talking about television and Steve giddy with radio drama.
