\"Most<\/a>The Mostly Mets Podcast<\/a>, with Toby Hyde<\/a>, Patrick Flood<\/a>, and Ted Berg<\/a> is a succulent weekly podcast that’s, oddly enough, mostly about the Mets. It’s really _all_ about the Mets they just occasionally wander off the train of thought to tackle other appetizing stories around baseball, sports, or the world of awesome sandwiches. \u00a0They record once a week for about an hour, usually a little more, and occasionally mix in an interview with a Mets player or coach, or another interesting party if it’s topical to the theme of the week. They even take listener feedback! Even mine!<\/p>\n

It’s what I always envision sports talk radio should be. \u00a0All three of them know what they are talking about and present their points not with arrogance or yelling, but with some forethought and research. \u00a0 They all have different areas of expertise, which makes them perfect blend of ingredients. \u00a0 They know the prospects, they can crunch the numbers, and they have a good sense of the strategy of the game itself. \u00a0They usually release new episodes on Thursday afternoons, and they’re usually just foot-long enough for the final three legs of my work commute for the week.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It’s a delicious show and I always found my brain sated after listening. \u00a0Whether it’s pondering the upside of a pitching prospect, discussing defensive positioning, or trying to figure out the next time I’m going to be near that sandwich shop Ted is raving about, I always walk away from the podcast with something to chew on.<\/p>\n
