Off The Pike with Brian Barrett - A podcast by The Ringer

Brian talks to the Boston Globe’s Chad Finn about a lackluster MLB trade deadline for the Red Sox, Chaim Bloom’s team-building strategy, and how the clubhouse will react to the lack of action (0:30). Then, they discuss some media news—the new NBA Finals announcers, Mike Gorman’s upcoming final season as Celtics announcer, and who might fill his shoes (41:10).
