Craig and Chris are joined by PHT OG John Gennaro to recap and revel in the Padres sweep of the Atlanta Braves in the National League WIld Card round.

Craig and Raphie check in with our PHT patrons immediately after the Padres finish their season with a loss against the DBacks to cement a 93-69 record on the year.

Reunited and it feels so good! Craig Elsten, Chris Reed, and Raphie Cantor are FINALLY back for a main show after the Padres swept the godforsaken White Sox to win their 90th game of the season. That put them 3 games back of LA with 3 games upcoming at Dodger Stadium. With the Padres holding the season series against LA, the Padres will win the division if tied with LA. How will the Padres approac...

It's Chris and Raphie talking with a veritable gaggle of our patrons after Dylan Cease shut out the Astros, capping off a playoff-like series in which the Padres won 2 of 3, losing only a bizarre 10 inning contest in which the umpires played more of a deciding role than either team.

Craig Elsten is joined by dozens of Padres Hot Tub patrons on the Post Game Show stage inside the PHT Discord to discuss a 4-3 win in 10 innings over the San Francisco Giants, a three-game sweep in SF, taking the season series from the Giants, and solidifying the club's Wild Card position while sneaking up on the Dodgers from behind!

Raphie holds the fort as Chris camps and Craig PAs at Snapdragon. The Padres lost 2 of 3 to the Giants with an incomplete comeback fizzling in a 7-6 loss. A ball lost in the sun in the 4th inning implodes Joe Musgrove as the Padres head into the final three weeks of the season just two games ahead of the Mets and Braves in the WC chase.

Craig Elsten and Chris Reed are joined by dozens of PHT patrons live after yet another dramatic walkoff win for the San Diego Padres. Down 2-0 in the 8th and in danger of losing 3-of-4, the Padres came off the deck with Jurickson Profar's two-run HR, then saw Jackson Merrill walk it off against Edwin Diaz in the 9th. It was a 4-3 week but vibes are very high. 

Ugh. The Rockies beat the Padres today, taking a game and series from the Pads. But! All is not lost. The Pads are still 15-over .500 and gained a game on the Dbacks over the weekend as Craig, Chris, and Raphie converged to talk about it all!  Become a patron for as low as $5/mo to get the show ad-free, early, access to the PHT discord, and more! patreon.com/padreshottub
