Have Funn Go Nutz!

This podcast is such a great way to capture the entire audience of the flying squirrels. Not only that, but it always excites me prior to the season and prior to the games. Trey does an amazing job. I would love if there was a recap of each player somewhere either in the interview or in the details. Like at the beginning of Carson’s this season (where he was prior and college). Small ask and not a big deal either way. I am a giant Squirrels fan and so glad this podcast has been established!

Squirrels-focused, but so much more

Great look inside the Flying Squirrels (on and off the Diamond) that adjusted well to providing quality content despite the lost 2020 season. I believe any baseball fan - not just a Squirrels or Giants fan - would enjoy this.
