The following is an archived podcast presented by the Branson & Hudson Foundation for Podcast Recovery, a Charles Austin Company.It is the first and only episode of the podcast.Welcome to Episode 1.
The Gunblades have won the Live Baseball Championship.It is pandemonium here in the streets.The season is over.They've won.
The Sheik presented them with the big trophy, and the crowd has just spilled out of the stadium and hit the streets, and we are here with you live on WBEN.My name is Dunstan Chexton,
And I'm here with my good friend Brad for Hockey Doc, and we are marching up and down Main Street here celebrating the world champions, Terre Haute Gunblades.It's finally happened.
It's been 34 long years since our Gunblades, you know, were able to take home any kind of championship, really.I mean, they were in AAA ball, you know, before this season, but they were bought out by Live Sports and, you know,
You know, you know, they ain't got an influence.It's a cash, about $11 million influx of cash.The only downside is they got to play some home games in Saudi Arabia, but that ain't neither here nor there because they just after 27 innings, a
Hance Baseball, the game has finally won, ended at a 1-0 score with the MVP Jiminy Good Gracious hitting a solo home run in the bottom of the 27th inning.And I gotta say, that's one of the best endings in sports history, Bradford.This is nuts.
Well, that walk-off homer had me saying good gracious myself because he done did it.He, oh man.
He ain't kidding.He actually said good gracious, you know. You know, Bradford, actually, you know, he took his hat off, a pressed it deeply against his chest and like a like a religious reverence.And he said, good gracious.
And he whopped the tent sweat off his forehead, fling it right on the floor.And, you know, that ball went silent.
You were you were just yet yet to your stream right down your face the whole time.
Well, you know, it's been a tense.I think, you know, for the, for the context, this has been about a nine hour long baseball game.
You know, they were, they were debating whether or not they wanted to call it, but, uh, you know, they let the boys play it out.Thank God.
And I think they were smart for doing it because we just had one of the most legendary nights of baseball we ever done seen in our entire life here.
Well, people would think that it would be, uh, I mean, one, nothing be sort of a battle of the bullpen style, uh, battle.Nope. Those starting pitchers played the whole game.
They, uh, they, you know, neither one of them wanted to really give it up.
They was both, you know, pitching a, a perfect game up till the, what, 17th inning, you know, then they started walking some guys and, you know, we started to think, you know, we were all sitting there in the stands there.This game started at 11 a.m.
It's around 1 a.m.now.Um, you know, it, you know, we were thinking, okay, it looks like we're, you know, we're going to have some action, you know, and me and you, you know, back then it was like almost 27 innings ago.
We were different people, Bradford. We were talking about where we're going to get dinner tonight.Dinner's long gone.There ain't no dinner for nobody tonight.
Well, I drink about 57 Pepsis.
You know, we need that caffeine to stay up.
You know, these pitchers, these players, they're in casts, they're in splits, they're all wrapped up, they're getting injections full of all kinds of drugs to keep them going.
Yeah, I thought it was safe around the seventh inning to switch to Miller High Life.So, you know, I started drinking about 20 innings ago, you know, which was, you know, about 3 p.m.So, uh, I'm fairly toasted, you know, and my feet are swelling.
I, you know, I'm gonna have to cut myself out of these new balances.
Well, I thought after, you know, yeah, around that time, I thought, you know, Pepsi's, you know, this game ought to be over soon.I could have a few.I had about, uh, how many cases of Princess wishes?
I mean, we lost count.We have the two 30 packs.Did you finish the second 30 pack?
I think I drank about 67 beers.
No one else was drinking the Pepsis, you know.
I drank all the Pepsis and I switched over to 67, 68 beers, I think, by my measure.
Dale's wife bought those, you know, she bought her six diet Pepsis in the bottle.
She brought us her cheesy potatoes.
She brought us cheesy potatoes.She had a homemade Chex Mix.Oh my God.
Had some marshmallows in it.I swear she put gummy bears.I think she did.She put gummy bears in her Chex Mix.
Well, she made me worms and dirt because she knows I love her worms and dirt.
Oh yeah.And here's the thing for a lot of people listening at home may not know worms.The worms are candy, but the dirt's just cake.
Well, it's like an Oreo, Oreo crumble cake.
Right.It's like an Oreo crumble cake.
I don't know how she does that.
It's like she takes the Oreos- Well, I think she crumbles up some Oreos or something.But how does she do that?
But there's no white there.How does she do that?
I think you can kind of, if you take a knife, if you have a sharp enough knife, you can separate the filling or whatever.You can probably repurpose the filling for another stuff, or maybe Dale just eats all the filling.
You know, that's a lot of work.
I mean, she's, I mean, she's very dexterous.Like she has, I think she's laughing.She's got this beautiful little thing.Well, I mean like the dexterity on her fingers, perfect fingers.She's got a dancer's feet.
She has little pink flamingos on her nails today.And I thought that was wonderful.I know you saw that.
You took your head off like it was.
