Sports talk after the wheels come off.
Al & Jerry's Postgame Podcast treats sports as the starting whistle, not the whole game. Baseball complaints, media rumors, movie chatter, AI weirdness, and blunt personal questions bounce around in a brisk two-voice argument.

Al & Jerry's Postgame Podcast is a sports-media hangout with the guardrails lowered. The show starts from the familiar stuff: Mets losses, Yankees slumps, pitching decisions, box scores, Wrigley Field day games, and whatever is waiting for Boomer and Gio. It does not stay boxed in for long. A Yankees segment can turn into a search for home-run history, then a complaint about bad box-score pages, then a laugh at how a broadcast call aged in real time. The Mets get treated with equal parts irritation and fatalism. Eight straight losses become a running mood. Jose Iglesias, Juan Soto, Jesse Winker, Kodai Senga, and MJ Melendez all pass through as pieces in a larger argument about what makes a baseball team feel right. The show also likes gossip when gossip touches sports media. Diana Rossini, Mike Vrabel, Chris Simms, Mike Florio, and Jeff Perlman appear as jumping-off points for speculation about what people are allowed to say and what gets shut down. It is not formal media criticism. It is two voices asking why something feels weird and then poking at it until the tangent either lands or falls apart. Pop culture gets the same treatment. AI Val Kilmer, Tom Cruise, Top Gun, and Elvis become material for a quick argument about technology, actors, and absurd movie logic. Personal banter is part of the product. Boomer Esiason's birthday breakfast, weather complaints, short sleeves, travel plans, and jokes about a Pope hat sit beside sports talk without apology. The tone can get adult and blunt, especially around sex and attraction, but the engine is usually incredulity rather than shock. It works for listeners who like sports talk that feels overheard, impatient, and funny in the margins.
Made for: For fans of loose sports-radio banter who want Mets and Yankees talk with gossip, pop culture, and off-topic arguments mixed in. It fits listeners who enjoy blunt two-person chemistry more than polished analysis.
What sets it apart: The show treats sports as a launchpad for whatever the room is already laughing or arguing about. Its best moments come from unfinished thoughts, quick corrections, and tangents that would usually get trimmed out.
Al & Jerry occasionally talk about things that happened that morning on Boomer & Gio. They mostly talk about how robots are taking over the world, rats are taking over New York City, and how most of the people that live in Florida are somewhat crazy.
