Stanford Steve! We talk Phillies-Mets, PGA Championship at Aronimink, who we like at the U.S. Open, and hanging with Charles Barkley.
Episode notes
Brothers Johnny and Kyle Fisher were raised on Philly sports and are bringing their smart, passionate, no-nonsense analysis to the podcast world. This is the podcast for all Philly sports fans -- the diehards, the casuals, and everyone in between.
In this episode, we are joined by Stanford Steve. We start by talking Phillies-Mets in advance of this weekend's series, and then we recap the PGA Championship at Aronimink before getting into this week's U.S. Open. And then we hit a little of everything, including great events Steve has seen live, and postgame parties with Charles Barkley.
