<br /> Shawn is back from the road, where he saw something awful in Dallas that Marc watched at home and ML is glad he missed.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> STRAIGHT&nbsp;DOPE:&nbsp;ML raves about last week’s guest Andy Dirks, whose excellence on the Tigers radio broadcast was on full display Saturday during what turned out to be the hometown nine’s last game of their remarkable season … a season you could call a “Fantastic Voyage.” (More on that later…)<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> This week’s show is loaded with great sound and video – a special bonus for our Soulmates who donate at least $5 a month via Patreon. We start out with Alex’s tribute to the wayward Shawn Windsor.

Marc and ML wonder it it’s time for an intervention…<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Shawn was in Dallas when Aidan Hutchinson went down, making him an eyewitness to a potentially historic event that could derail the Detroit Lions’ bid for a Super Bowl appearance. Only Marc and Shawn aren’t ready to give up just yet. ML, who &#8212; suprise! &#8212; watched the Lions Sunday night, gave up decades ago.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Detroit Tigers superfan Teebs was one of the many dynamic characters ML met outside Comerica Park last week while working as the Detroit Free Press’ “man on the street.” Watch the podcast to see Teebs doing his thing outside the ballpark.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ML isn&#8217;t pleased when he&#8217;s interrupted while shooting a selfie video from Comerica Park. Watch the show and see for yourself the look on his face.&nbsp;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Shawn was on the road, which means one thing: Good eats. He and Marc share their views on Tex-Mex food, while ML questions why Shawn would think a guy named “Monarrez” who grew up in southern California might not be familiar with this particular type of cuisine.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The national media was aghast that Donald Trump would insult Detroit – in Detroit! ML and Marc think Trump’s comments will actually help him win votes in Michigan, while Shawn isn’t so sure.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Marc asks when the last time someone who didn’t have an Ivy League degree or elite pedigree ran this country. It’s a great question, which the crew wrestles to answer.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> A Dorito got Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in trouble with Catholics. Marc and ML, who are regular churchgoers, weigh in on the debate.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Shawn hates the French and the Dutch. Listen and learn why. ML wonders how he feels about the Walloon…<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Please support the show by becoming a Soulmate.
