Episode 53 - The Papelbonic Podcast | Matt Kory 'n Marc Normandin discuss the Red Sox starting rotation, it's early struggles, if the recent good stretch means that they're rounding into form, the question of what to do with Daisuke Matsuzaka and Aaron Cook, Clay Buchholz's struggles and what the hell Jonathan Papelbon is talking about (spoiler: we have no idea).

Episode 50 - The Looking Forward, Happy Fun Podcast | Marc Normandin is back! He and Matt Kory talk about the Boston Red Sox. Specifically what the Red Sox have in their immediate and semi-long term future. They talk about the up-coming schedule and how it may benefit the Red Sox Then they discuss changes that are coming to the beleaguered bullpen in the form of the return of injured players Rich Hill and (longer down the road) Andrew Bailey, and potential minor league call-up Alex Wilson. The new-ish role of closer-ish reliever Alfredo Aceves is also a point of conversation, as is the potential return of Mark Melancon who was banished to Triple A for ineffective pitching. It's a crazy-informative and totally-worthy-of-being-the-50th-episode 50th episode of the Over The Monster Podcast!! | 4/25/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 49 - I Don't Edit It Out | It's all baseball all the time except when it isn't on the OTM Podcast. This episode Matt is joined by Sam Miller from Baseball Prospectus and Jason Wojciechowski from Baseball Prospectus, The Platoon Advantage, and Beaneball.org. The gentlemen in question yammer a bit and then get down to the business of discussing the numbering of starters (good? bad?), and the A's Josh Reddick. At that point Jason has to go so Matt and Sam carry on and discuss the best teams in the AL with a single detour towards the Pittsburgh Pirates who can't hit. It's a speedy, exciting, un-edited, and more than a little embarrassing episode of the Over The Monster Podcast! | 4/19/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 39 - Jim Bowden Might Mistakenly Give Us Lots of Money | Was there any doubt that when you combined the Over The Monster Podcast with The Platoon Advantage, you'd wind up upsetting somebody? On this week's episode of the OTM Podcast, Matt Kory and Marc Normandin are joined by Bill Parker from the Platoon Advantage and now of Baseball Prospectus to talk baseball's the off season, TwinsFest 2012, the Twins, and the Prince Fielder contract. There may be a little bit about Jim Bowden, something know only as ESPM (you'll never figure out what that stands for!) and of course, your standard desirable 'eating pudding in your mom's basement' blogger insult. Yes, it's all here, and it's all... uh, near...? One way or the other, it's a raucous 39th episode of the Over The Monster Podcast! | 2/8/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
Amateur Hour
These guys have some knowledge - its there somewhere, I'm pretty sure - but the podcast is a meandering mess. It's like a dull extended conversation between friends who are trying to kill some time.
