The Baseball Lifer Podcast, Encore Edition, Hall of Fame Show, 12-30-2025

I consider this my favorite of all episodes I've produced for this series. After my first visit to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, I interviewed its former president, Jeff Idelson for this program. Since then, I've re-broadcast this show at the end of each year. Happy New Year, friends.

Season 4 of this series will begin in early 2026 when events in baseball give me a subject.
