Listography 51 – The Greatest Stretch in Sports

Sports is the gift that keeps on giving. At any point on the calendar there are multiple leagues in play, but it’s clear there are stretches where sports is at its best. That’s the topic of Episode 51: what stretch on the calendar is the best?

We put up a parameter of a three month period and then debated which one was the greatest. Is it the spring months when March Madness, The Masters, and MLB Opening Day highlight the slate? Or are you more into the winter months when basketball and hockey are underway, while football goes into bowl/playoff mode? And don’t forget the summer with baseball, NBA and NHL championships, and the Olympics or World Cup.

Give this one a listen and then sound off! What’s your favorite? You can let us know on social media, Facebook, Twitter and/or Instagram to join the conversation. Thanks for listening and be sure to subscribe, rate and review on iTunes.

Listography: Episode 42 – TV Series Pt. II

Paternity leave is over for Wad and Listography is back in action! The TV series returns with part two and this time we’re diving into the world of sports. Those who have listened know this is our sweet spot and we put together an hour of conversation about the Mount Rushmore of Sports Broadcast Teams and our Top 5 ESPN 30 for 30’s.

With ESPN continuing to pump out quality documentaries, the job has only become tougher to narrow the list to five. From crime dramas like OJ: Made in America to 90’s nostalgia like The Last Dance and The U, 30 for 30 routinely leaves us wanting more.

Listography: Episode 33 – Remembering Kobe

The world stopped Sunday afternoon. Kobe Bryant dead. How? Where? Why? So many questions and no sense to make of it all. Our heroes aren’t supposed to go like this. The suddenness of it all only added to the heartbreak and it became even worse when the news came out that his daughter Gianna and seven others were on board.

Kobe Bryant was a legend in every sense of the word. He was the NBA for a generation and, while it had only been a few years, he had so gracefully slid into retirement and family life. For all his awards and accolades on the court, he seemed to enjoy just being a dad off it.

It’s tragic that those nine individuals are no longer here with us and the mourning process throughout the league will take time. As for fans, we grieve for a man we did not know, but who played such a large part in our lives. This week, we sat down and counted down 8 Kobe Moments as we remember the life and legacy of one of the greatest to ever do it.

Share your Kobe stories with us as pay tribute to Mamba. You can join in on the conversation on our Facebook, Twitter and/or Instagram. Thanks for listening and don’t forget to subscribe, rate and review on iTunes.

Listography: Episode 29 – NBA Preview Special

* cues up the NBA on NBC theme*

Listography is back, the NBA is back and all is right with the world again. Like ’96 Jordan, we are back and better than ever after some busy work schedules held us down. With NBA ball starting this week, we decided it was time to grab the mics and talk some hoops.

There are a million things we could discuss when talking NBA, but we decided to go all LeBron on you and give you not one, not two, but THREE Mt. Rushmore segments and a 3 Things We Predict.

Loaded with history, GOAT debates and of course some spicy predictions that might have us looking like experts in June, this episode was made for the basketball junkie. Pop in the headphones and listen to the Mount Rushmore of Point Guards, Wings and Big Men before heading over to our social media pages to join in on the debates!

Listography: Episode 21

It’s summer and that means games! Video games, board games, lawn games…you name it, we’re going to cover it. This week we’re starting with video games and merging two of our loves: video games and sports.

What is the Mount Rushmore of Sports Video Games? What are 3 Things you want to see in the future of sports video games? Madden and NBA 2K ratings – did they get it right? We tackle all these hard hitting questions and more in the latest show, while also making pleas to Humongous Entertainment, the NCAA and EA Sports to please help us out.

We think the best segment though is in the middle of the show. Instead of Rave About Faves, we decided to do a draft involving the original 30 neighborhood kids from Backyard Baseball. It’s a segment loaded with nostalgia, which will have you rummaging through the computer cabinet drawers at your parents’ house in search of the old disc to pop in.

We appreciate you listening as always and don’t forget to subscribe, rate and review on iTunes and then follow Listography on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. We’ll be back next week with a new show!

Listography Episode 10 – Masters & NBA Playoff Special

The greatest time of year for a sports fan rolls on with The Master’s and the NBA Playoffs beginning this weekend. While we are not a sports-only podcast, it’s difficult to stay away from such great events and so here we are, once again, with more sports chatter for your ears.

Our good friend Skipper Lentscher joined us for the show, and being a big-time golf fan from the state of Wisconsin, he has plenty to say in both segments. What’s the greatest Master’s performance of all-time? We break down our Mount Rushmore in that category to open the show.

The NBA Playoffs seem to be wide open this season. In segment two we give you our Top 5 Favorites to win the NBA Title. Spoiler alert: we don’t agree with which team will be the last one standing!
