The Philly Frenetics Podcast

The Eagles lost Super Bowl LVII to the Chiefs; this week, the guys discuss just what happened and how badly the team was outcoached (2:01) before finding some big takeaways (20:09) from the game; the field surface (30:38) and yes, *that* penalty are discussed as well (36:13) before the conversation turns to what's next for the team, including extending Jalen Hurts' contract and replacing its coordinators (44:44).

The Super Bowl is upon us, so the guys share the key matchups they're watching and what they think the Eagles and Chiefs need to do to win the game on Sunday (9:59).  Then, Joe surprises John with a basketball take in light of LeBron James setting the NBA scoring record (32:49) before the guys discuss the Kevin Durant trade and the Sixers' trade of Matisse Thybulle (39:58); Joe then reheats some old beef with Kyrie Irving, Dillon Brooks, and Donovan Mitchell (48:10).

What a time to be alive; your Philadelphia Eagles are headed back to the Super Bowl!  The guys talk at length about Sunday's NFC Championship Game, including the 49ers quarterback debacle, where Haason Reddick's playoff performance ranks among Philadelphia's all-time greats, and the narratives that cropped up in the hours after the game; then, they chat briefly about the AFC title game (44:08) and the Sixers' recent run of good form (54:51).

The Eagles opened their playoff run with a dominant victory over the Giants, so of course the first topic of conversation is the Flyers and Sixers!  After touching on the recent news surrounding the tenants of the Wells Fargo Center, the guys dig into everything great about the Birds' demolition of the Giants (12:39); it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows, though, as both John and Joe took issue with some of Nick Sirianni's decision-making on Saturday night (21:20).  Then, the guys discuss the other three Divisional Playoff games (32:05) before examining Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers (50:00).

After a bit of sick leave, the guys return to talk about the NFL Playoffs, but first they give their thoughts on how the Eagles' regular season ended (7:11); John thinks the team is in good shape moving forward while Joe's outlook is less rosy (14:56).  Then, the Flyers and Sixers get a quick shoutout (25:43) before the guys discuss the Wild Card games (38:43) and Saturday's Eagles-Giants Divisional Playoff matchup (48:08).

The annual Philly Frenetics Christmas Spectacular is upon us, and as such, the guys have thoughtfully shopped in the theoretical bargain bin at the last minute to find gifts for each other and the Philadelphia sports community (26:54). Of course, they also discussed the Eagles' recent performance and the injury to Jalen Hurts (7:00) before a brief chat about the recently-concluded World Cup, which featured a schadenfreudian rooting interest for Joe (21:14).

The Phillies agreed to a massive contract with free agent shortstop Trea Turner on Monday, which was perfect timing for the guys to discuss the deal and Turner's potential impact on the roster (5:59), what the lineup looks like in 2023 (16:58), and whether the signing closes the gap on the Braves and Mets (21:38).  Then, after the Eagles topped the Titans on Sunday (31:38), Jalen Hurts gets his due – at least on this pod – as the favorite to win the NFL MVP award (38:13).

A lot has happened since the guys last got together, including a handful of Eagles games; the guys chat about the win over the Packers (6:25), the Birds' place atop the NFC hierarchy (15:08), and their thoughts on the season moving forward (22:12). Then, it's therapy time as the guys look back at the Phillies' World Series loss to the Astros (34:57) – which Joe blames in large part on the manager (45:04) – and the Union's eternally scarring gut-punch of a defeat in the MLS Cup Final (57:02).

The Phillies and Astros will open up the World Series on Friday night in Houston, and to preview the series, the guys chatted with Iron Pigs and Phillies play-by-play broadcaster Pat McCarthy about his experience at the postseason clincher in Houston (5:22) and why he missed the NLCS (13:55).  Then, the trio breaks down the World Series: how the Phillies can win (23:10), potential X-factors (40:46), and bold predictions for the series (44:58).

Somehow, some way, the guys are once again talking about another Phillies playoff series victory! This week, Joe talks about being at Game 3 and being close to Game 4 (9:33) before the guys break down how the Phillies beat the Braves (18:32) and what they have to do to beat the Padres in the NLCS (29:00). Of course, the Eagles beating the Cowboys can't go unmentioned (41:14), nor does the Birds' outlook for the next few games (49:11).

Two happy pods in a row? Who'd have thought?? This week, the guys talk about the Phillies' Wild Card sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals (4:54) and the new playoff format in general (26:22) before a quick chat about the Eagles' win over the Arizona Cardinals (34:37) and the Union locking up the top seed in the Eastern Conference for the MLS Cup playoffs (45:35).

For the first time in 11 years, the Phillies are headed to the playoffs!  The guys discuss the Phillies' win over the Astros on Monday night as well as what they think ultimately put the team over the top (12:36).  They also answer two key questions – how far can the Phillies go, and how far will they go? (27:20) – before going over Sunday's Eagles victory over the Jaguars (42:52).

The Eagles are 3-0 after dominant wins over Minnesota and Washington, so the guys discuss what they liked over the last seven days (9:35) and the one thing causing Certified Hater™ Joe concern (25:43). Then, Joe gets heated about Rob Thomson's managerial performance against the Braves on Sunday (36:52) before pouring his special brand of cold water all over the good feelings that the fan base has for the interim manager (51:03). But ultimately, it comes down to one question: with 10 games to go, will the Phillies make the playoffs? (59:23)

The first of hopefully many post-Eagles victory pods has the guys talking about what they liked (9:31) and didn't like (17:15) from Sunday's 38-35 win over the Lions.  They also discuss the Phillies bouncing back against the Marlins and Nationals (33:09) before Joe resurrects the Twitter Feud of the Week and tells the story of his interaction with an angry Orlando City fan during the Union's 5-1 demolition of said Orlando City (41:17).

Last week, the guys were optimistic about the last month of baseball season; the Phillies wasted no time in making them question that optimism with a 1-5 road trip (7:05).  Of course, since it's September, it's time for the Eagles to take center stage, and the guys share who they think will be the team's most impactful players on both sides of the ball (24:37) before taking a closer look at the 2022 schedule (44:40).

The guys are back to review their trip to the Phillies-Mets game – and the "I Love the 90s" postgame concert – before discussing the Phillies' recent homestand and what they expect down the stretch (13:33).  Then, Joe waxes romantic about the Union's recent run of incredible goal-scoring form (29:10).

The guys are back to discuss the NBA investigation into the Sixers (5:28) and the rumors of Kevin Durant's potential interest in coming to Philadelphia (11:10).  Then, it's August, so it's time to talk Phillies (25:39) before segueing into a discussion of the respective team Halls/Walls of Fame (31:09) – including the Eagles' imminent enshrinement of Hugh Douglas – and the NBA's plan to honor the late Bill Russell (38:06).

Did the Phillies have a successful trade deadline?  The guys discuss Dave Dombrowski's acquisitions of Noah Syndergaard, Brandon Marsh, and David Robertson (7:40) – as well as the departures of Odubel Herrera and Jeurys Familia – and what it might mean for the Phillies' postseason hopes (24:01).  Plus, the Juan Soto and Josh Hader trades (30:45), and the guys chat about the passing of basketball legend Bill Russell and broadcasting titan Vin Scully.

The guys return after John's COVID-19 absence; he talks about his experience, while Joe shares an entirely different anecdote about suffering; the guys chat about the Phillies and the MLB All-Star festivities (9:41) before getting into the Sixers' plans to build a new arena in Center City (19:49).  Then, the Flyers seem to have no direction after failing to sign Johnny Gaudreau; how big a missed opportunity was it? (39:49)

The dog days of summer mean the focus of the sports world is on two things: baseball and NBA free agency. This week, John talks about his recent laser eye surgery while Joe waxes nostalgic about a football league that folded when he was two years old.  Then, the guys discuss the Phillies' recent series with the Cardinals (14:44), including their thoughts on the veracity of Nolan Arenado's cycle and Albert Pujols' farewell ceremony, before sharing their thoughts on the first flurry of moves around the NBA (31:39) and what the Sixers have and haven't done, including the potential of trading for Kevin Durant (37:01).

After a longer-than-intended break, the guys catch up on recent events, which of course means some craziness at the end of a Union match, before discussing the inevitable: Bryce Harper's broken thumb (8:02).  Then, they take a further examination of what the Phillies might do moving forward (26:28) before touching on the Sixers' potential plans for the impending start of NBA free agency (40:08) before a second soccer feature focused on the 2026 World Cup coming to Philadelphia (46:42).

Anything happen while we were gone?

The guys return after a brief hiatus to discuss John's new digs and Joe's attendance at three notable baseball games in the span of four days before getting into the topic of the day: should the Phillies have fired Joe Girardi? (11:37)  And since they did, was it at the right time, and will it matter at all? (22:19)  Joe then shares his thoughts on what the team should be looking for in a new manager while John is, suffice to say, significantly less picky (31:15).

After the Sixers' season ended with a whimper against the Miami Heat last week, the guys discuss what went wrong (4:31) before Joe asks John to Fill in the Blank (12:28).  Then, John turns the tables and puts Joe on the spot about some more long-term effects of the team's fourth second-round exit in five years (22:03).

Despite Joe's doomsday prediction, the Sixers eliminated the Raptors last week...but at what cost? (1:52)  The guys discuss Game 6 before moving on to a discussion of Game 1 of the Sixers-Heat series, featuring possibly the first anti-BBall Paul take in Philadelphia sports history (12:56).  Then, the Eagles get lauded for their performance at the NFL Draft (30:46) before the Phillies Thoughts of the Week focus on Alec Bohm and, again, the Mets (39:32).

The guys made the questionable decision to record a new pod right after Game 5 of the Sixers-Raptors series, and the result is a lot of sighing and despair, and not a lot of answers. Despite the poor performance, John still believes the Sixers will win the series, while Joe predicts they will make the most ignominious NBA history by the end of the week. Then, to lighten the mood – or not – the guys share their Phillies Thoughts of the Week, and yes, Angel Hernandez is prominently featured (27:29).

Could the Sixers' first two playoff games against the Raptors have gone any better?  The guys answer that very question (5:58) before discussing the overt physicality of the series and its effect on both teams thus far (12:29).  Then, John puts Joe on the spot in a game of Sixers-Raptors "Fill in the Blank" (18:00) before the guys wrap things up with their respective Phillies Thoughts of the Week.

Opening Day is upon us, which means it's time for the guys to down a big glass of optimism and dig into the upcoming Phillies season (31:28).  They also take a quick trip around the local and national sports scene to discuss the Flyers' handling of Keith Yandle (4:22), the Eagles-Saints pile-o-draft-picks trade (8:22), the United States men's soccer team qualifying for the World Cup (16:01) and whether or not fans should be worried about the Sixers (19:16).

Exhale, Phillies fans: the home team made some signings! This week, the guys break down the additions of Kyle Schwarber and Nick Castellanos to the Phillies lineup, what they mean for the team's defense (it go bye-bye), and the luxury tax implications (it say "hi hi") (22:47). Then, they step into Joe Girardi's shoes and fill out the Opening Day lineup card (38:03). Plus, Joe and John took in the Sixers game against the Nuggets last Monday, and suffice to say, Georges Niang's math skills come into question (6:10).

The guys return after a week off, and they're not the only ones who are back! Ben Simmons made his return to the Wells Fargo Center as a spectator and it did not go well for the Sixers (4:43), but earlier that day, the news broke that the Colts were trading Carson Wentz back to the NFC East (14:58). Also returning: Major League Baseball, as the lockout has ended and teams are kicking off a shortened spring training. The guys discuss the changes we'll see in the coming years (25:32) before talking about the Phillies activity, and lack thereof, over the first few days of the new year (38:54); fans are already melting down, and that has Joe riled up.

The guys return from a week off to discuss the current baseball labor situation (0:35) before moving on to the start of the James Harden era in Philadelphia (8:52). John then asks if we're going to see Ben Simmons on March 10 (17:59) before Joe breaks some news – to John, anyway – about the Sixers' interest in a backup center. After the break, the guys reflect on the reaction across the sports world to Russia's invasion of Ukraine (26:20).

Our long local sports nightmare is over: Ben Simmons is no longer a Philadelphia 76er.  In his stead is James Harden, and this week, the guys share their thoughts on the trade (6:17), whether it makes the Sixers a contender in the Eastern Conference this season (14:48), and the added pressure on Doc Rivers to make it work (21:53).  Then, it's Super Bowl LVI, which sealed John's win the playoff pick 'em and earned Zac Taylor some criticism from Joe (28:51).  What does this win mean for Matthew Stafford's legacy (32:48) and the chances of another team doing a Rams-style all-in push for a title (38:21)?  Finally, a fairly nondescript set of Super Bowl commercials and a memorable, even if not mind-blowing, halftime show get some Frenetics-style analysis (43:07).

No football? No problem; there's plenty of Sixers talk to be, uh, talked, and the guys talk it this week.  A week after assessing his place in the franchise's history, the guys wax even more poetically about Joel Embiid putting the team on his back (4:49) before showing some appreciation for Tyrese Maxey as well.  Then, the big question: will Ben Simmons get traded this week?  (22:33)  The guys discuss potential targets, including the heavily-rumored interest in James Harden (26:45), before considering the potential ramifications of sending Simmons to Brooklyn, and which Sixers outside of Embiid are untradeable (38:55).

The Super Bowl matchup is set, and while the games weren't quite as breathlessly exciting as last weekend's slate, they're still worth discussing; the guys chat about the Chiefs bungling things against the Bengals (6:53) and the Rams coming from behind against the 49ers (16:38).  Then, the guys take an early look at Super Bowl LVI (24:21) before sharing their thoughts on what the future might hold for Tom Brady – who rudely rendered his portion of the conversation moot – and Aaron Rodgers (27:22).  Finally, John makes his case for where Joel Embiid stands in the pantheon of all-time Sixers (35:55).

The guys put the local talk on the back burner for a bit to talk about the incredible weekend of playoff football we all just witnessed (4:42) before eventually getting around to the Sixers – should Daryl Morey stand pat and hold on to Ben Simmons? (38:54) – and the Flyers, who need a rebuild that the organization and fanbase might not want to see (47:02).

It's a spicy one as the guys react to the Eagles' embarrassing display in their Wild Card game against Tampa Bay (2:35).  They talk Jalens Hurts (11:22) and Reagor (16:36) before fileting the coaching staff over its numerous miscues in the game (23:37).  Then they discuss what it all means (34:55) before touching on the other Wild Card games across the league (45:40).

The NFL regular season has come to an end, and now the real games begin, so of course the guys spend the first half of the show talking about the abject failure of Carson Wentz and the Indianapolis Colts (4:09) – featuring a guest appearance by the Philly Frenetics Indiana Correspondent – and the humiliation that the New York Football Giants inflicted upon themselves (16:41).  Then, it's onto a pretty much meaningless Eagles-Cowboys game (29:25) before the guys take a brief look at the Birds' Wild Card matchup with the Buccaneers (42:04).

With two weeks left in the season, the Eagles are in a position to make the playoffs. While they admittedly can't say they saw this coming, the Philly Frenetics do talk about the last two games (7:41) and how they'd now be disappointed if the team misses out on the postseason. Then, Joe fires off some eyeball-melting takes about lineman touchdowns (14:06) and what Daniel Snyder knows about Roger Goodell (17:34) before the guys offer up their "Heroes and Zeroes" of 2021 (26:15) and lay out some goals for Philadelphia's five major pro teams to strive toward in 2022 (36:36).

The guys are back and they are steamed, which is nothing out of the ordinary. But instead of being upset *at* their teams, they're angry *for* their teams, as professional sports leagues across America have conspired to screw Philadelphia's teams during the COVID-19 pandemic. The postponement of the Eagles' Week 15 matchup with Washington draws their ire first (8:00) before the NHL and NBA come in for criticism while MLS catches some flak as well (15:21). That said, it's Christmas, so the guys hand out gifts to some local sports personalities, teams, and each other (28:29) to go into the holiday with some positivity...or not?

This week, the guys lament Dick Allen not being elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame (2:58) before discussing the Union's bad luck leading up to the MLS Eastern Conference Final and the team's valiant effort on the pitch (7:15).  Then, do the Eagles have a quarterback controversy after #MinshewMania hit MetLife Stadium? (35:03)  Finally, the Flyers fired Alain Vigneault; does it matter? (44:42)

The local professional soccer team has made it impossible to ignore its success, so Joe gets to hold court for an entire segment to wax poetic about the Union advancing to the MLS Eastern Conference Final (9:40).  Speaking of holding court, Joe shares his experience after being summoned for jury duty this week, and of course, the guys put the Eagles on trial for impersonating a football team on Sunday at MetLife Stadium (33:09).  The verdict: guilty as charged.

The Philly Frenetics are back and they're...happy? What's that all about? Well, the Eagles dominated the Saints thanks to Jalen Hurts, Darius Slay, and, dare we say, the coaching staff (4:54). Joe then makes a pair of bold predictions (20:03) before waxing poetic about Jakob Glesnes' match-winning goal in the Union's playoff victory over the weekend (25:16); John then does the waxing, this time about newly-crowned National League MVP Bryce Harper (40:24).

The boys return to the podwaves and welcome a guest, as Matthew De George of the Delaware County Daily Times calls in to chat about the upcoming MLS Playoffs and what the Union have to do in order to stage a deep run (30:36). Before that, the guys talk about the Eagles' recent run of success (5:01) and whether or not the playoffs are a possibility (11:20). Then, Ben Simmons, Rich Paul, and Shams Charania take center stage as Joe goes in on Shams (16:12) before John offers a solution to the saga that reduces Joe to tears (24:59).

In an episode recorded in the immediate aftermath of the Eagles' debacle in Las Vegas, the outrage flows freely as the guys discuss the game and the head coach (6:25). Then, a much more benign topic: Ben Simmons! (27:44) Come for Joe's list of who's to blame; stay for the Game of Thrones reference and the phrase "starter Kardashian."

The Eagles are back in first place after a win over the Giants on Thursday Night Football (7:05).  They're not the only ones, though, as the Union took Toronto FC behind the proverbial woodshed on Saturday night for a 5-0 beatdown that vaulted the local MLS side into first place with three matches remaining in this most irregular of regular seasons (31:48), and you best believe Joe talked about it at length.  Finally, the guys talk about the preposterous finish to Game 4 of the World Series (45:14).  Bet you didn't think you'd hear the name "Enos Slaughter" today, did you?
