Description:

To those who have been with us since the beginning - welcome back - and to those who are joining us for the first time - thank you for stopping by! This is season 2 of the podcast, as we undergo a branding change - going from 'Hangin With Wang' to 'Just Another Podcast' featuring my broadcast partner and longtime friend, Jackson Heiden. On 'Just Another Podcast' we take a deep dive into the world of sports and all of the wacky/weird storylines surrounding the games we follow and love - including an in-depth look at our lives as sports broadcasters and the people that make it all possible. Unfortunately, in a world filled with laptops and cheap recording equipment, everyone and their grandmother has a podcast. So give us a listen, and see why 'Just Another Podcast' is so much more than just another podcast.

This conversation was introduced by a flagrant 1 by Chennady Carter against CC - leading to an uncomfortable moment for media immediately following the game in which Clark's "impact" was questioned. The impact is undeniable - but the treatment of rookies/rivalries is nothing new - and Nate thinks it's good for the game.

Aj and Wang come into episode 66 fresh off of moving from one residence to another (and ditching loads of STUFF they don't need along the way). And while Aj's knees crack... and Wang's groin hurts... we're reminded of some of the beauties of moving and what makes a neighborhood (and a fresh start) great. On this show, we talk over our latest unfortunate (yet hilarious) moving stories before Aj relives some of his finest memories from the biggest country music festival in Michigan. Congrats to everyone who made it through another year of Faster Horses. Cheers!
