It's the first show of 2018 for the Phillies Talk Podcast, a raucous bunch took to the microphones on this show! We discussed the Eagles and how they made it to the Super Bowl, and of course the Phillies and how they will be heading down to Spring Training to start up a new season under new manager Gabe Kapler. We heard from Gabe Kapler and Andy Galdi, Phillies Director of Baseball Analytics from Rich's trip to the Phillies College Summit, after many years, Rich returned to College this year for 2018 and covered the enthusiastic bunch of students who made the trek for a chance at a career in baseball. 

Additional show notes:

It's the Phillies Talk Podcast back for 2018, getting ready for Spring Training and talking about the Philadelphia Eagles appearance in the Super Bowl.
