Why Baseball is the Best Movie Sport
Added 2021-03-17 12:41:13 +0000 UTCI want want to apologize for the late post here. Last night I used a YouTube Premiere for the first time to release the video, and it threw off my usual release routine and I just...forgot to do the Patreon post. It won't happen again!
Anyway here's another episode! Wow these keep ending up really long, huh? This is another classic instance of us deciding to cover a topic that is not remotely topical that most of our audience probably isn't interested in at all...but hopefully you give it a shot. I think it's a fun one!
And we've got some wild developments in the ongoing story of the season.
Enjoy!

2021-03-21 21:06:55 +0000 UTCAs two people whose favorite sport is baseball, we really appreciated this video. I (Fleat) am a little confused why it stopped at the 80s tho. Was that just nostalgia, or did the movies after that overlap with the “music biopic” video with its cliche tropes afterwards?

2021-03-17 22:14:40 +0000 UTCThe first time one of the Ken Burns-style text cards came up, I did in fact laugh out loud. Well played, sir. Well played. (Oh yes, I did watch that series on PBS when it aired. Because I'm an Old.)

2021-03-17 14:09:49 +0000 UTCI just watched it. It has been really interesting, specially from the point of view of someone out of the US, where baseball is not followed, like, at all... I think that the main point of being so successful is the "duel" aspect that you comment. Other sports are less naturally focused in one-on-one duel.
