The Dreamcast, by World Series Dreaming

Rice Cube and Twitter buddy Tyler ( @RunningFlannel ) attempt to figure out what the hell just happened with the Cubs not signing any of the marquee free agents so far, and what kinds of plans can be made to at least salvage a competitive team in 2023 and beyond given this seeming stinginess. You can of course find us (and please rate and review) on Apple Podcasts , and our new blog home is with o...

Rice and Berselius talk about the postseason that was, and fantasize about all the free agent signings the Cubs will make...or they won't, it could go either way. Please rate us on Apple Podcasts and tell your friends all about us, but we can't really tell you what to do. Please also visit our new friends at Obstructed View .

Rice enlists the aid of the guys from Obstructed View to discuss the 2022 Cubs and how the franchise might right the ship in advance of 2023, while also talking a bit about how minor leaguers will finally have labor representation. If you feel generous, please rate and review us on Apple Podcasts ! Thanks for listening and keep an eye out for more regular episodes as we get this thing going again.

Harry Pavlidis of Baseball Prospectus joins the Dreamcast amidst the MLB lockout to talk about potential rules changes that could re-balance the game towards hitters while still allowing pitchers to showcase their skills, and which could ultimately improve the game of baseball once a deal is reached. Please find us on social media, and rate us on Apple Podcasts!

With MLB in a lockout, the Dreamcast is revived just in time for the holidays as friends chat after a long time to discuss the labor issues, how to potentially make the game more interesting for casual fans, and life in general. Please find us on Apple Podcasts and rate and review, tell your friends!

The Dreamcast returns (yet again) from an extended COVID/life-related hiatus. Twitter buddy and fellow Star Trek nerd Adam Roy joins Rice as we talk Deep Space Nine, baseball's impending death in 2042, and random musings on baseball and life. Just in time for Opening Day!

Rice and Anno return after an extremely long hiatus to shake off the rust and try to get this thing going again. Uncertain how long this will last since the MLB season is in jeopardy with COVID outbreaks affecting a few teams, but the Cubs are doing well and we hope everyone continues to perform superbly, and they stay safe and healthy until the season hopefully completes. Please find us on Apple...

With the 2019 season fully underway, and the MLB Draft also in full swing, Rice and Anno finally find some time to come together and catch up on Cubs baseball, life, and make vacation plans. If you would like to hang out with us on this thing some time, please drop us a line and we'd love to bring you in as a guest. We'd say to go rate us on iTunes but they're about to shut down, so just tell your...

Lots to talk about as we get this in under the wire before the Cubs start the 2019 season! It's a nice long one too, we had a lot to say and not a lot of time to edit, so pardon the occasional cough or sounding like we were underwater. Comments welcome as we tackle some tough topics (blame Andy) and talk about our predictions for another hopefully great season of Cubs baseball.

Rice and Crawly return to the Dreamcast after a long hiatus to talk Cubs' lack of action (which is probably why we've been away for so long), the team as currently constructed, and the 2019 Cubs Convention. You should totally share us with your friends and subscribe to our blogs and podcast and stuff. Rate us on iTunes too!

After Rice and Anno go to Wrigley Field one last time together before the big move, this is the last podcast before Team WSD must operate from different time zones. We talk a bit about the silly bobblehead day, Anthony Rizzo doing great feats of awesomeness, thoughts on MLB expansion and the DH, and refer you to listen to this podcast and read our blog to find out how you can win Anno's extra Wrig...

Rice and friend of the blog Randall get together to talk about the changing landscape of baseball in the aftermath of the All-Star Game.

After a frustrating weekend, Rice and Anno talk about why it's not time to panic about the Cubs just yet. In the meantime, you can still win our swag by leaving us a review on iTunes , after you listen to find out what you can win, of course.

As the Cubs (hopefully) begin their run at the NL Central crown once again, Rice and Anno talk about confidence, performance, and some logistics on how you can snag that extra Wrigley scoreboard clock Anno got at the game this week. You should probably take some time to rate us on iTunes , wink wink nudge nudge.

As the Cubs slog through their early season doldrums, Andy and Rice talk about the (hopefully) inevitable resurgence and everlasting faith in our favorite team. Plus some chat about the changing face of baseball as well as a farewell to a fan favorite. You should totally listen and rate us on iTunes and stuff. Come find us at worldseriesdreaming.com

After a very annoying spate of bad weather and postponements, the Cubs and WSD get back on a good streak and bring you some banter on performances to watch, ideas on expansion, realignment, and scheduling, and more. Please rate us on iTunes !

Rice just wants to put this out to justify the cost of running a podcast and to also remind you that this Dreamcast does exist and that you should keep checking back whenever we actually have time to record the next episode. Thanks for your patience!

Friend of the blog Crawly joins WSD live from Florida to talk his experiences with Marlins Park, the Cubs' season opener, and Anthony Rizzo's small dab into social issues.
