The Sandwich Corner

2023 PGA Championship Recap with Mike, John, and Andy

The golf panel returns!  Mike in North NJ and John in CT re-join Dave to recap a thrilling, and most eventful PGA Championship from Oak Hill in Rochester, NY.   Rain made for very ugly conditions and uglier performances during the 3rd round, but the final round on Sunday made up for it with some incredible golf.  Brooks Koepka outlasted Viktor Hovland in what was a great back nine, and despite a really good round from Scottie Scheffler, he still had too much of a hole from Saturday.  The panel get into the big win for Koepka and what the potential impact is the LIV tour where he plays.

Plus: our usual surprises and disappointments and a look ahead to the rest of the golf schedule.

The Pilot pt. 2 with Tom in NJ

Our long-time sports podcast friend Tom in NJ joins us for this "second pilot" episode of The Sandwich Corner.  On the show, we filled in our Twitch audience on how Tommy and Dave met, then we got into some NBA, talk, golf, candy discussion, and a bunch of great Random Q's from folks in chat, including friends from the DITCOW days and newer friends from the Sam Fam.  Tommy's 3 year old son Landon was the real star of the show, dazzling the rest of us with his charisma and trying to eat Smarties that Dave threw at him.

It was a great way to test out the new audio setup and start our new companion sub-series within the Sandwich Show on Twitch.

The Unfortunate Pilot version 1.5 [really short] (05-11-2023)

We made some key connection changes from the mixer to the computer and I think second pilot, or "version 1.5" breaks down how we cleaned up the connections, but also created a new problem of extremely low sound output to the computer.

It's always something!  Anyway, enjoy this extremely short update that's hopefully a lot better sounding than the first pilot.

”Pilot” Episode - Audio Testing (05-09-2023)

Dave (Davy) tests out all the audio after a series of equipment updates, plus we share the latest on what's coming up on the Sandwich Show Q&A series, what's to come for this podcast, and some anecdotes about last week's Sandwich Show Twitchiversary Special.  Note: This is a pilot for the re-purposing of the podcast, but the podcast itself is still a continuation of Sandwich Sports.  The old episodes of Sandwich Sports/DITCOW will remain on this feed for the forseeable future.

2023 Masters Recap with Mike, John, and Andy (04-12-2023)

Mike, John, and Andy re-join Dave to recap a very thrilling 2023 Masters Tournament that had it all: nasty weather that prompted lengthy delays and tree-falling hazards, an exciting leaderboard with Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka going toe to toe most of the weekend, and many historic moments including Phil Mickelson's tie for 2nd making him the oldest to finish in 2nd place at Augusta National.  The panel recap a brilliant final round by Jon Rahm and quite the opposite from Koepka who went over 18 holes without a birdie on the final day.  Plus we'll get into the other folks in the field from Jordan Spieth to Tiger Woods, and much more!

NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament Sweet 16 Preview with John, Andy, and Tommy (03-20-2023)

John in CT, Andy in Seattle, and Tom in NJ are back to recap one  of the best weekends in NCAA Tournament history!  Many huge upsets went down, including the epic 16 seed Fairleigh Dickinson upset of the 1-seeded Purdue.   It's only the second time in tournament history it's happened.  Upper seeded Arizona, Kansas, and Baylor also were wiped out over the weekend, and there were many great games throughout all four days so far.   There were also two notable bad beats in tournament action we'll get to as a panel.  Join us as we preview a potentially spectacular weekend of Sweet Sixteen Action.  Among the great matchups, a rematch of the 2006 iconic game between Gonzaga and UCLA.  Both teams are much different these days, and it should be a great clash of styles.    We also preview Arkansas and UConn, both tough teams who have risen of late.   Plus, Florida Atlantic meets Tennessee, and Michigan State featuring the prolific tournament coach Tom Izzo meets Kansas State who just fought off Kentucky in the previous round.  All in all, it sets up to be another chapter in what will be an all time great tournament, and we're excited to give you all the scenarios and potential betting angles.

Golf Update, The Players Recap, NCAA Men’s Tournament Preview with John & Mike (03-13-2023)

John in CT and Mike in North NJ are back for the first golf recap of the year, a pre-Majors recap of the last month of pro golf, including the dwindling numbers for the LIV tour, a very underwhelming Players tournament that resulted in a return to glory for Scottie Scheffler, and a new ruling that could change the style of golf balls for the field.  Later, John stays on for an NCAA Tournament Preview, going through the past two weeks of conference tournaments, then a look-ahead to each region of the big tournament as we begin March Madness.  It's a season that many think is wide open for the sports, with no clear-cut favorite to win the championship.  We'll recap everything in one big podcast as Sandwich Sports makes its return.

 

Super Bowl LVII Preview with John and Andy (02-08-2023)

John in CT and Andy in Seattle join Dave for a preview of Super Bowl LVII between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs.   The Chiefs had a dubious path to the Super Bowl which included a lot of bad officiating that went in their favor during the AFC Championship.   The Eagles also were underwhelming in their NFC Championship game, and some key calls bailed them out of a possible 49ers comeback.  

The panel will dig into the matchups and make their predictions for the game.  If there's time left over, we'll have a few quick hitters on prop bets, chat about other potpourri, or both.

Taking a Chance on Random Q’s, ft. Kevin on the Cape (01-25-2023)

Incredibly, it's 2023, and we're doing our first Podcast RQ's of the year with our long-time co-host Kevin on the Cape!   We'll catch up, chat about where Kevin and Dave are and the future of the podcast and the Sandwich Show Twitch channel.  As we do, we'll have plenty of potpourri, and we'll be glad to take Random Questions from the chat.

Later, we recap a WILD, wild fantastic Bowl Season in College Football, preview the CFP Championship between TCU and Georgia, and look ahead to the final regular season week in the NFL.   Plus we share our picks including text picks from Andy, Ron, and Kevin.
