The Fan Wagon Podcast: Recent Episodes
Pod City Network
Sports and travel, travel and sports. A passion for these...and the Boston Celtics... is about all the hosts share in common. Joey, a sportscaster from North Bay, Canada, and Leo a videographer from San Francisco share stories and discuss topics important sports fans, and some not so important in this lighthearted, unathletic, fun and friendly podcast.
The Toronto Raptors could upset the Golden State Warriors in grand fashion. Ahead of game 5 of the NBA Finals in Toronto, Leo and Joey discuss whether fans should be surprised, which fan base is proving to be "better" as each has been subject to criticism, how the outcome of this series will affect each team's support as well as reaction to Warriors' minority owner Mark Stevens' push on Kyle Lowry. Of course, we have predictions, and why Joey thinks its more fitting for the Raptors to win it in six.
The boys are back! A Toronto Raptors/Golden State Warriors final was enough for Leo and Joey to dust off the mics and bring back the Fan Wagon. The proclaimed Boston Celtics fans describe what it's like to see the teams of their respective markets (northern California and Canada) play in this unlikely matchup, and what impact the fans of Toronto can have on next season, with two of the biggest name in upcoming free agency involved in this series. And of course... Drake antics are debated. There is also a rather big announcement. Welcome BACK and aboard the Fan Wagon
Joey and Leo reminisce about their first ever trip together after meeting in Boston, to Chicago. They discuss Wrigley Field, former US Cellular (and the new awful name) tourist attractions, bars and restaurants, and far too much time on "the Bean" for Joey's liking.
Leafs bumped by the Bruins in the first round of the NHL Playoffs, Raptors get swept by the LeBron and the Cavaliers (again) in the second round of the NBA Playoffs. Rob Wong of SN 590 The Fan in Toronto joins Joey and Leo to talk about the current scene in 'the 6'.
It really does seem to always be sunny in Philadelphia these days. Joey and Leo welcome Adrian Fedkiw of Fox Sports Radio and thephillyinfluencer.com to talk about the scene in Philly in light of the Sixers getting to the second round of the NBA Playoffs, the Eagles beating New England to win the Super Bowl, as well as the Flyers early exit from the NHL Playoffs at the hand of the state rival Penguins. Adrian and Joey also share stories of how the death of former Phillies and Blue Jays pitcher, Roy Halladay, has affected each market. Adrian also gives some bold predictions.
Joey and Leo recount how they met while in Boston to witness the return of Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett for their first game back at the TD Garden after they were traded to Brooklyn. Episode one also gives insight as to what the podcast is about, delves into whether a fan can choose what team they cheer for or if they are tied down by geography among other topics.
Two Celtics fans trying to accept the fate of Boston while going through the rest of the NBA Playoffs bracket, including whether this is the Toronto Raptors championship to lose (at least the Eastern Conference championship).
