Where to Listen

Episode #132 features New York Post columnist, Phil Mushnick and Magnechef founder, Alfredo Infante with his son, AJ
Phil Mushnick is a newspaper sports columnist for the New York Post.  He writes it like he sees or hears it, and he is unafraid to speak his mind.  We have been long-time readers and on many occasions have purchased the newspaper exclusively for his column.  Surprisingly, he is the first guest to put our names together and ask us if we knew of a baseball player named, Jeffrey (Jeff) Leonard (Jeff Leonard played 14 seasons in the Major Leagues.)   We should probably call this episode fun with Phil.  We talk about the game of baseball and the various streaming services you have to pay for in order to watch all the games.  Doug Adler, Mike Francesa, John Sterling, pet peeves, instant replay, and the state of the media today; are just some things on which Phil offers his opinions.  Phil is candid, entertaining, and very funny.  This is an episode where complaining never sounded so good. 
Alfredo Infante and his son AJ join us to talk about Magnechef for which Alfredo is the founder, and baseball.  The Magnechef product receiving the well-deserved bulk of the attention is their award-winning heat-resistant barbecue gloves.  The gloves come in a wide variety of colors and are extremely versatile.  Before we get to our discussion with Alfredo we speak to AJ who is eight years old and loves playing baseball (he likes hitting better than pitching and is a fast runner), and well as discussing his favorite team, the Miami Marlins. When Alfredo is not tending to Magnechef business, he is working as a firefighter in Miami, Florida.  Anyone who participates in live-fire cooking knows the importance of protecting their hands, and these gloves will become an essential part of your cooking equipment.  At the Magnechef website, https://magnechef.com/ you will find the gloves, a few additional products, and testimonials from actual Magnechef  glove users.  Alfredo talks about his experience on the Home Shopping Network, and we discuss the possibility that Magnechef will one day become a brand synonymous with BBQ.
