Season 8 Episode 10 of The Put it in the Books Show is here, and the Mets are… still tied for first place with the Filthies of Filthadelphia. We don’t know how either. Farace is out tonight doing what he does best: parenting like a boss at his son’s championship game. Producer Joe is sweating through his jersey in 100-degree heat at Universal Studios. That leaves Rodriguez and Keith to piece together the current state of the Mets — and it’s not pretty.After being swept at home by the Rays and then punked in Atlanta, the Mets have now lost six straight and the wheels are looking a little wobbly. That once-dominant pitching staff has gone from nails to "nail-biting." The lineup continues to sputter with runners in scoring position, and the offense has no rhythm. But hey, all-star voting is underway! Lindor and Pete are locks — but does anyone else deserve a nod?Now comes the test. Three massive games in Filthadelphia, followed by a four-game revenge series against the Braves at Citi Field. Can the Met

The Black Lincoln Collective Comedy Podcast: Episode #107 on PopCulturePros (or #192 for those still brave enough to keep track)Title: Hilarity and Chaos UnleashedThis week, the BLC crew returns to celebrate the most chaotic time of year—graduations, Father’s Day, and the subtle art of not having a clue what’s going on. Naturally, it spirals into weird words, cultural confusion, and more mental health wisdom than anyone asked for.Fred shares his very own Father’s Day reflections, which quickly devolve into rants about socks, snacks, and emotional damage. Parker attempts to keep things heartfelt, while Allan somehow drags us into a debate about whether certain words are real or just made up by British people with too much time.Add in a little unfiltered comedy, a splash of perspective, and a generous scoop of the usual BLC nonsense, and you’ve got an episode that feels like a graduation speech written on the back of a Waffle House napkin. Tune in and get schooled in laughter—no cap and gown required.

Season 30 Episode 7: "Fight Like A Girl"DONMEGA is back in action with Episode #183 of Am I On The Air? on the PopCulturePros Network, bringing you the latest buzz in movies and TV from June 4–10, 2025. This week’s theme? Power, chaos, and a little bit of Y2K nostalgia.We’ve got non-spoiler thoughts on the high-kicking, vengeance-fueled Ballerina—does this John Wick spinoff hold its own or stumble in the spotlight? Plus, the disaster comedy Y2K crashes into the mix with tech panic and teen angst. Does it land the laughs, or just glitch out?On the small screen, we’re breaking down the debut of Stick, diving into Resident Alien Season 4, and touching on plenty more that’s shaking up your watchlist.With his trademark sharp takes, wit, and deep love for all things entertainment, podcast veteran DONMEGA delivers another knockout episode. Hit play and let’s fight through the week in pop culture—one round at a time.

Farace, Tim, and Anthony are all in the house tonight for Episode 122 — and there is no shortage of playoff chaos and sports drama to break down. Dave/Melo? Off on assignment... or more likely watching the Heat's offseason unfold.We start on the ice, where the Florida Panthers now lead the Stanley Cup Final 2–1 after a Game 3 beatdown in Edmonton. The Cats hung a 6–1 L on the Oilers, with Brad Marchand doing what Brad Marchand does (four goals in the series), Sam Reinhart cashing in twice, and Carter Verhaeghe playing like a man possessed. Edmonton? They lost more than the game—they lost their composure, racking up 85 penalty minutes and turning Rogers Place into a wrestling ring. McDavid and crew have some soul searching to do before Game 4.Meanwhile on the hardwood, the Pacers lead the NBA Finals 2–1 over OKC. Tyrese Haliburton and Bennedict Mathurin are out here embarrassing folks, with Mathurin torching the Thunder for 27 off the bench in Game 3. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is still doing MVP things, but

The Put it in the Books Show S8 E9: Mets Rolling, Senga Hamstrung, Citi Rockin’, Rays Up NextIt’s Season 8, Episode 9 of The Put it in the Books Show and all four hosts are in the house tonight — Farace, Rodriguez, Keith, and Producer Joe behind the wall, ready to break down another wild week of Mets baseball.First, the big news: Kodai Senga is headed to the 15-day IL after straining his hamstring covering first base in the finale against the Nationals. The fellas will dive into what this means for the Mets’ elite pitching staff, which has carried the team through the first two and a half months of the season. How long will Senga be out? And who will step up in the meantime?Even with the bad injury news, the Mets are on fire. They just swept the Rockies in Colorado, swept the Nationals at Citi Field, and have now won six straight and seven of eight. The record stands at 45-24, good for a 5.5-game lead over the Phillies in the East, and a ridiculous 27-7 mark at home — where Citi Field is packed and rocking on

The Put it in the Books Show S8 E8: Chemistry, Clutch... and a Classic Mets Gut PunchThe Mets dropped one in true Mets fashion—a gut-wrenching, self-inflicted 6-5 extra innings loss to the Dodgers that felt like a throwback to the worst timeline. And what better way to unpack it than with Farace, Rodriguez, and Producer Joe (who actually showed up this week)? Keith is out tonight, likely reviewing footage of Lindor’s glove work from April.Despite the meltdown, the Mets are still 39-24 and winners of 12 of their last 15. Pete, Soto, and Nimmo are heating up at the plate. The dugout’s loose (flip-the-bottle, anyone?), chemistry is cooking, and even McNeil’s playing CF without needing a GPS. Pete and Megill’s handshake? No idea what it is, but it’s working. Extend them both.Should Pete be the captain? Lindor? Nimmo? Or do we just rotate the title weekly like Producer Joe's attendance?The fellas also dig into the pitching—maybe the best staff in baseball—and whether the Mets need to make moves or just trust t

Tonight, the A-Team of Farace and Tim take the mic—Anthony and Dave are out, possibly still trying to process the fact that Aaron Rodgers actually signed a contract. That’s right, after months of cryptic quotes and holding everyone hostage like it was *Lost*, Rodgers is heading to Pittsburgh. Unfortunately for the Steelers, they now lead the league in ayahuasca exposure. Don’t worry—neither Tim nor Farace are buying in. They’re just happy he’s *not* a Giant.In the NHL, the Stanley Cup Final kicked off in *Edmonton*, where the Oilers took Game 1 behind lockdown goaltending from Stuart Skinner and just enough from Connor McDavid, who’s still terrifying even when he doesn’t score. The Panthers will look to bounce back before Alberta gets their long-awaited parade.In the NBA, it’s Game 1 of the Finals tonight: Pacers vs. Thunder. Don’t let the small markets fool you—OKC is *dominant*. They’re the No. 1 seed for a reason, led by MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and a squad that’s been steamrolling opponents. The Pacers

The Black Lincoln Collective Comedy Podcast: Episode #106 on PopCulturePros (or #191 if you’re somehow still hanging on)Title: Brillo NutsThis week, the BLC crew returns with another masterclass in chaos, and this time it’s all about small-town pro wrestling, Sydney Sweeney, and whatever the hell “Brillo Nuts” are—because of course it is.Fred opens up about the gritty, glorious world of local wrestling where folding chairs are weapons and crowd size is measured in pizza boxes. Meanwhile, Parker tries to explain snowflake outrage without getting canceled, and Allan brings us one step closer to figuring out whether Sydney Sweeney is a national treasure or just another Hollywood fever dream.From bizarre small-town encounters to derailed commentary and unnecessary tangents, Episode #106 is your weekly reminder that sense is optional and nonsense is guaranteed. So hit play, laugh with us, or just sit there confused—it all works. Welcome to Brillo Nuts.

Season 30 Episode 5: "Hold On To Your Coconuts"Summer’s heating up, and so is the movie and TV world—DONMEGA is back with Episode #181 of *Am I On The Air?* on the PopCulturePros Network, covering everything you need to know from May 21–27, 2025.This week, we’ve got non-spoiler takes on a stacked movie lineup.

Hit play and, seriously… hold on to your coconuts.

Farace is out tonight scouting the next generation of CitiField greatness as his son’s Angels face off against the Mets in a makeup of last week’s washed-out championship. Meanwhile, Rodriguez, Keith, and Producer Joe (behind the wall and definitely not checking TikTok mid-show) are holding it down for another edition of *The Put it in the Books Show*.The Mets are 34-22, just finished a tidy 4-2 homestand after series wins over the Dodgers and the “please-relegate-them” White Sox, but somehow the mood in Metsland still feels like they’re 22-34. Why? Maybe it’s the team hitting like they’re allergic to runners in scoring position.Still, this squad just keeps winning – with lights-out pitching and timely defense doing the heavy lifting while the bats slowly wake up. With some injured arms eyeing returns soon, the guys will debate who gets bumped and whether a six-man rotation might be on the table.Plus: the case for team captain—Lindor, who checks in with every player after each series like he’s taking roll cal

Not your thing? Skip ahead to the part where we talk about monks throwing hands, because yes, that’s where we’re going.This week, the BLC gang is firing on all cylinders with an episode that swings from culture commentary to full-blown chaos. We’re celebrating Pride Month the best way we know how—with love, laughs, and the complete inability to stay on topic. Fred randomly brings up The All-American Rejects (because apparently it’s 2005 in his head), and Parker goes deep on black fatigue, while Allan leads the charge against outrageous concert ticket fees—because seriously, $79 to sit behind a pole and hear the bass line?Add in some hilarious back-and-forth banter, a deep dive into weird fights between monks (yes, that happened), and a few takes tha
