Live from the Fox Brothers Alarm Studio, it's the Bob Gibson episode of Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank! Dan welcomes Frank back—live from the hospital—and the guys are thrilled to have Allen “Action” Jackson in the studio once again. Emotions, rants, and laughs fly from the jump.

Allen unleashes a fiery tirade over MLB’s Apple TV exclusivity, especially with the Phillies and Yankees locked in a series he can’t watch. Dan pokes the bear (as usual), and Rich quietly stirs the pot. The crew talks Yankees trades, defensive woes, and what still needs to be fixed before the postseason. The Mets, Blue Jays, Dodgers, and even the unpredictable Mariners get airtime.

The conversation pivots to the NFL: why Micah Parsons may not be worth the hype, the Cowboys’ depth at DE, Jerry Jones' latest rant, and how union drama could impact player contracts. The Giants’ offense and defense get examined in training camp chatter, and Dan proposes the NFL has become a chessboard of load management, depth charts, and dollars.

Plus, Fantasy Football updates (no team specifics, don’t worry), the return of co-managers, and the countdown to draft day at Dubs on 5th.

You won’t want to miss this mix of sports analysis, passion, sarcasm, and friendly fire from Eastern Pennsylvania’s most opinionated podcast crew.

Welcome back to Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank! In this week's episode—dubbed “The Robert Newhouse Episode”—Dan and Frank kick things off with a spirited debate over who truly owns jersey number 44. Is it the Cowboys legend Newhouse, Hammerin’ Hank Aaron, Pistol Pete, or even... Barack Obama?

The guys are joined by their ever-dependable sound man, Rich Vassallo, and give a shout-out to their steak-hunting pal, Allen “Action” Jackson.

Then it’s all things baseball, starting with the All-Star break. Frank and Dan break down the Home Run Derby format, Cal Raleigh’s surprise win, and the heartwarming family dynamics behind the plate. They discuss mic'd-up players mid-game, Pete Alonso’s three-run blast, snubs like Juan Soto, and why the MLB still leads all major sports in having a watchable All-Star Game.

Also up for debate: the odd swing-off finale, questionable MVP choices, and whether exhibition games should even be competitive. You’ll also hear thoughts on the state of small-market teams, Paul Skenes’ future, and the economics of professional sports.

Dan and Frank are back for Episode 42—the Jackie Robinson episode—and they dive straight into a fiery debate: Should the Mets have a giant statue of Jackie Robinson at Citi Field, despite him never playing for the team? The guys go deep into the stadium’s Brooklyn Dodgers influence, ownership decisions, and why Citi Field still doesn’t feel like a true home for the Mets.

From there, it’s a broad and honest discussion about sports culture and politics. Topics include:

Frank returns to the mic this week as Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank hits Episode 41—this one honoring Cowboys fan-favorite Bill Bates. Dan, Frank, and Rich reunite for a jam-packed episode filled with humor, debate, and deep dives into sports and mythology.

The show kicks off with laughs and friendly jabs about Frank’s recent absence, Allen’s off-air situation, and Rich’s initiation into the “crypto club”—complete with painful PulseX losses.

Then it’s time to celebrate the Oklahoma City Thunder for clinching their first NBA title. The crew breaks down the NBA Finals, the drop in ratings, and Tyrese Haliburton’s tragic Achilles injury. Dan even delivers a full Greek mythology lesson on how the Achilles tendon got its name—seriously.

From there, it’s all baseball:

• The Yankees are slumping, the Rays are charging, and the Blue Jays are lurking.
• The Tigers are red hot, the Astros are back, and Jacob deGrom is looking like himself again.
• Frank vents about the Phillies’ fielding woes, especially Trey Turner’s gaffes and the bullpen struggles.
• Dan argues the Mets are flawed but scrappy and predicts a September dogfight for the division.

They also discuss Cooper Flagg’s rise to No. 1 in the NBA Draft and media narratives comparing him to Caitlin Clark—plus commentary on Angel Reese and the race-driven rivalries being forced into sports headlines.

It’s Episode 40—honoring Cowboys special teams legend Bill Bates—but there’s no Frank tonight. Dan is joined by returning friend Allen “Action” Jackson for a wide-ranging, high-energy episode.

They kick off with a heated MLB segment:

• The Yankees have dropped six straight—can they fix it before the deadline?
• The Mets aren’t faring any better after their Pride Night anthem controversy sparks debate.
• Phillies manager Rob Thomson benches Nick Castellanos, and chaos follows.
• Shohei Ohtani plays peacemaker after benches clear in a Padres-Dodgers scuffle.
• Trade deadline talk, hitting slumps, and the long march toward the All-Star break.

In football, Dan and Allen tackle:

• Adrian Peterson’s embarrassing poker tournament fight.
• Jair Alexander’s fresh start with the Ravens.
• Travis Kelce showing up lean and ready for a final run with the Chiefs.

Then it’s NBA Finals chatter—with Indiana and OKC heading to Game 7. Halliburton and TJ McConnell are stepping up, but is anyone actually watching? Ratings hit record lows.

The show crescendos with a passionate discussion of the WNBA’s handling of Caitlin Clark. Allen and Dan react to the multiple hits she’s taken, the lack of league protection, and what it all says about race, media bias, and sports marketing. The message: Caitlin Clark is the superstar the WNBA needs, and ignoring that could tank the league.

They also dive into the Riley Gaines–Simone Biles controversy, trans athletes in women’s sports, and the cultural fight over fairness in competition. It’s an emotional, unfiltered segment that hits hard.

Dan, Frank, Rich, and returning guest Tyler go full throttle in this packed episode. It's the Larry Csonka Episode, honoring the Hall of Fame fullback from the undefeated 1972 Miami Dolphins—and it quickly launches into a spirited debate: Who are the top 5 NFL running backs of all time?

Lists fly, names are dropped, and hot takes abound. Jim Brown, Barry Sanders, LaDainian Tomlinson, Emmitt Smith, Eric Dickerson—everyone's got an opinion, and no one holds back. From Tecmo Bowl nostalgia to the overlooked greatness of Thurman Thomas and Marshall Faulk, the guys break down what makes a back legendary.

In the second half, it’s all about the U.S. Open at Oakmont, where brutal greens humble even the best pros. They talk about scores, surprise leaders, and how Tiger Woods may have changed the game (and possibly used PEDs to do it). LIV Golf, the future of the PGA, and open-wheel racing’s splintered history also sneak into the mix.

As always, there’s laughter, a little chaos, and just enough sports trivia to keep you guessing. A true summer kickoff episode you won’t want to miss.
