Speaking of podcasts @JSam21, did umpcast disappear? Or is my phone just not catching any new episodes?

I’ve been enjoying the information in the Gerry Davis series,  but the audio quality is awful.

I listen to a lot of podcasts and have become a bit of a snob on that regard.  

I also like the Plate Meeting.  Will have to try out Umpcast.  Any other good ones?

@The Man in Blue    My buddy is the one producing the GD pod casts. I just sent him your feedback as to the audio quality.

 

[Mudisfun]

My buddy is a quick responder:

"Yes, I made a change on the audio this past episode... Should be much better for now on. "

 

Hopefully in the future casts, you notice a difference.

That’s ... um ... embarrassing?  

... but cool!

In all honesty, it is pretty much done. I’m really the only one still umpiring. I don’t have the equipment or time to continue the show by myself. The time that would go into the show would be better off spent getting into the gym for me. I really enjoyed doing it but with no monetary gain coming from the show, it is hard to justify turning down games or not going to the gym to do the show.

Yeah, at times the sound quality has been bad, or even changed in the middle of a particular episode (I assume they had to change recording locations), but some of the stories are great, and some good usable advice. I really like the idea of "timing" being "when you use your judgement" - that is, the moment at which you render a decision - and how it's not just a matter of slowing down, but using that time to actually process what you've seen and then make the call.

I'm sorry to hear that, but I'll be the first one to admit it's tough. The time it takes to do these things is tough. It is much more than just the time on the air. It's prep work technical stuff... 

I'm a prime example remember a few years ago I tried doing a call in show on the site...
Then the quick tips YouTube channel (which I'm bringing back very soon!!!)

It sucks because I had a great time doing the show. Being able to BS with people for an hour or so every week about umpiring is fun. It felt like sitting at the corner of the bar with your crewmates just having a beer and talking shop.

We could set up a Discord server for the site. There's a section you can have for voice chat. Set up a day and time, see who shows up.

We don't even have to record it.

That is what we used to do the show actually.

BIG difference in the current episode!  Tell your buddy KUDOS!

@The Man in Blue I will tell him so... we are working a game this evening.
