After a short hiatus The Blight Bat makes a triumphant return, welcoming NYT-Bestselling Author, Podcast Gawd, and Mariners fan Mike Duncan to the show.
Topics Include:
-Best/worst MLB stadiums
-The Ichiro HOF inauguration, and the many faces of Ichiro
-Felix Hernandez’s HOF candidacy
-Realizing Mike possesses the Lathe of Heaven
-The Era of Dumper
-The unexpected enjoyment that is the 2025 Seattle Mariners
For any of you who do not know Mike’s two podcasts, The History of Rome and Revolutions, are available anywhere you get your podcasts. I can say without hyperbole or brown nosing they are two of my favorite podcasts of all-time. Additionally, you can check out his books The Storm Before the Storm and The Hero of Two Worlds anywhere you get your books, including your local library. They’re both awesome reads.
Finally, if you’re so inclined you can support Mike’s incredible work directly at the Revolutions Patreon. It’s well worth it, and you’re supporting a fellow Mariners fan.
Thanks as always for listening to The Blight Bat!
