This is a big Mets episode. "Once Upon a Time in Queens," a 30 for 30 documentary by Nick Davis, grabbed our collective attention, so Joe Rizzo and "The Dawg" Jeff Healy broke it down. The happenings around the 1986 New York Mets came roughly a year before Riz & Dawg met at Fordham, and Riz's roommate and member of the Fordham Crew Tom Kavanagh was, believe it or not, a vendor at Shea Stadium for the season. Kav came on to share his first-hand experiences from the Mets' magical season, including his perch for the infamous Buckner play. How did he have a better view than Keith Hernandez? Tune in!

Riz & Dawg spent the first part of the show breaking down things related to the documentary and dove deeply into the 1986 season. There was talk about George Foster's significant part, the roles different players played, and even some surprising and shocking facts about that season's award winners. They caught a couple of mistakes and opined about some of the portrayals in the doc. If you have not seen it, this will not spoil it for you!

Veteran of the Day was MAJ Eric Schuler, 20-year veteran of the NJ Army National Guard and Operation Iraqi Freedom vet. He now gives back with the American Red Cross, including helping at Joint Base MDL supporting the Afghan refugees.
