The Between The Lines Podcast

While spring has not quite sprung here in the land of 10,000 lakes, that will not stop the MLB season from commencing. Carver and Jackson give a Twins preview, and talk Timberwolves playoff aspirations before getting to our main course this week. The BTL Podcast was proud to host Gopher Hole contributor, editor for the Minnesota Daily, and host of The Bleav networks Gopher sport s podcast Tony Lie...

As the poet Nayvadius DeMun Cash (Future) once said, we ballin like the March Madness. The fellas talk about the BTL bracket pool, react to some listener hot takes, and talk about some trends to keep in mind when filling out your bracket. Carver, Justin, and Jackson quickly get back to their roots to talk a bout football for a second, but this episode is all about the greatest tourney in sports. (...

"No publicity is bad publicity" - Ja Morant while holding an AR-15 outside of the FedEx Forum. The fellas also get to Danny Dimes talk and discuss the terrible regular season performance of Gopher basketball.

After a nice vacation; Justin, Jackson and Carver are back behind the mic once again to discuss all thing under the sun. The fellas roll out a huge announcement and keep the excitement rolling with a well rounded episode. Topics such as spring training, the NBA playoffs and even gun culture in America surface in a much anticipated episode that did not disappoint. 

The fellas talk Lebron and his legacy, the Kyrie Irving trade, and the Super Bowl. Everything from halftime performance rankings to longest rush props, this ep has it all. Enjoy!

Sorry for the late release, Tweener Nation. Turns out even podcasts have bills. Hope you enjoy a truly well rounded episode.

A little of this, a little of that. Not too much of anything, but just enough of everything. The Jaden McDaniels episode is inspired by the, oft-undervalued, Timberwolves forward. Its nothing special in the boxscore, but if you watch the games you know there's limitless potential. Aside from some Wolves and Vikings talk (some might even say bashing), the fellas give a quick rundown on Champio...

Was there a game on Sunday? If there was I'm sure nobody watched it. The BTL boys talk landing spots for Rodgers and Brady as well as other potential offseason switch ups, St. Thomas's generous donation, and yes... the Vikings. Mix in some excellent UFC discussion and you'll find the fellas managed to salvage a good episode out of what was a very sad Minnesota sports weekend. Please...

For the first time in 2023, the BTL boys are all under one roof to provide the content our tweeners have so desperately yearned for. After some extended time away from the stu, Carver, Justin, and Jackson prove that rest prevails over rust as they put together a quality episode that dives into Carlos Correa news, Packer demise, Bears offseason outlook, CFP national championship, and of course the...

It may be a new year but lucky for you loyal listeners its the same old BTL Pod. Justin calls in to get the boys back together for some high quality ball analysis in this one. Is TCU for real? Are the Vikings for real? Are the Packers for real? Tune in for a real good episode to find out what's what before we rap up another awesome NFL season.

Carver and Jackson sit down to talk about the largest comeback in NFL history and what it means for the Vikings going forward. Jackson also insists on talking Bears football, which ultimately leads the two hosts to discussing the state of the NFL in general. Finally, the two best gamblers on the podcast give out a loaded slate of best bets that you won't want to miss. From all of us at the BT...

On this weeks episode, Jackson, Justin, and Carver get into the weeds on a variety of topics. Carver and Justin talks Correa's new deal while Jackson officially lays out why he believes Chris Finch should be fired. Everything was going smoothly until it became time for power rankings. At which point the Vikings fans mobilized on the last true and unbiased ball-knower and turned him in to one...

The end of the college football season is upon us with the Army/Navy grand finally this weekend. Your hosts talk CFP and the shake-up across the B1G landscape as well as recap another strong season. Carver, Justin, and Jackson also dive into baseball free agency and what the Judge signing means to New York. Finally, the segment you've all been waiting for... what TWO sporting events would you...

Welcome back to the BTL pod for episode 55. Your three hosts do an excellent job of demonstrating they haven't lost their fastball by rocking back and delivering another week of quality content. The fellas talk World Cup action and body some foreign nations. After that, they wrap up the Gopher football season and finish with CFP hypothetical (Carver gushes over USC). All and all, this is a we...

Not to be confused with Twins ace Joe Ryan, recurring guests Jo Cieluch and Ryan Torbenson are welcomed back to the podcast for a very scary Sunday edition of the BTL pod. Sunday was a dark time and the five of them coped the only way they know how, by talking an immense amount of shit. They discuss Twitter, Northfield affairs, gopher football, the head with four faces of bars, and much more. Than...

Oh... did the Vikings play a game last Sunday? I thought they were on bye. In the meantime, the imbeciles from Iowa City are making their way to the Land of 10,000 lakes to take on the fighting PJ Flecks this weekend. If that isn't enough to warrant a listen, we'll leave you with one more teaser. Justin does something he almost never does! It was a true masterclass in humility and footba...

The debut episode of Peyton Meisner Comes Alive brings you midterm election breakdowns from Peyton & Carver. The two talk about Ron DeSantis cleaning up in Florida, the struggle of MAGA candidates nationwide, and who they think will win the run-off race for the Georgia senate race. Peyton and Carver also turn their sights to 2024 and give their thoughts on how the two parties will decide who r...

With the release of the college football playoff, the NFL trade deadline, and the firing of Steve Nash; there was plenty to get into on this weeks episode. All capped off with another great round of best bets. Do we have a pod lock from this week?? You decide.

You read that right, this is the 50th episode of the BTL pod. Your grizzled veterans Carver, Jackson, and Justin show off their experience this episode with some top tier NBA talk. Never fear, it is still football season and oddly enough Jackson actually wanted to talk Vikings football in his weekend recap. We would like to thank you the listeners for getting us to 50. I speak for all of us at the...

Your charming hosts dive in to a litany of topics as we are quickly a time in the sports calendar where all 4 major sports compete for air time. Although there was no shortage of content, a mutiny begins to form as Justin turns heel and a new co-host appears. Will Carver King be able to right the ship, and continue to command the BTL locker room? Tune in to this week ep to find out.

At long last our best and most contentious segment is back. Most importantly, it lived up to the hype. Some absolute nonsense was thrown around in the making of these rankings but since the BTL pod knows ball, you can trust they're accurate. Your hosts also dive into baseball (I guess they're still playing that) and per usual, they try and make the listeners some money. Please enjoy epis...

This week, our fearless leader Carver King once again proves he is worthy of that title by not being afraid to record half of the podcast with his mic unplugged. Bare with us through the technical difficulties and a bit of rambling to hear our best bets and Justin's wedding date proposal. The fellas even stayed out of the football weeds to try and draw in the female listening base this week,...

After looking like super bowl favorites week 1, Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings did what they do best; let us down in primetime. The more things change, the more they stay the same. In a similar fashion the Bears got embarrassed in prime time once again by the Packers (and the refs?) at Lambeau Field. Holding true to the theme of the week, this episode kicks absolute a**, per usual. Please...

Football is officially back and your three hosts couldn't be more excited about the outcomes week 1. Jackson, Justin, and Carver all got to celebrate victory Monday as well as a Gopher win. On top of that, they were able to revel in the misery of Packer, Badger, Hawkeye, and Husker fans. The stars aligned this week for the podcast as they carry that momentum in to week 2. Some people are call...
