Howie Rose sits down with Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber for a thoughtful conversation about why the 2026 season will be his last in the Mets booth. He explains the personal and professional factors behind the decision, from family sacrifices to the importance of stepping away before the job changes, while also sharing what still makes the biggest moments in sports so addictive for a play-by-play broadcaster. Along the way, Rose looks back on the unforgettable calls and career turns that shaped his legacy, including his love for radio, his transition across hockey and baseball, and the thrill of capturing iconic New York sports moments. He also opens up about mentoring the next generation, the lessons he learned from great broadcasters around him, and the one dream that still burns brightest: getting the chance to call a Mets championship before it’s all over.

It's the 9th inning, and team Venezuela will have the lead heading to the bottom of the inning. Is this the worst loss in USA history? P.S.

Evan shares one of the strangest encounters he has ever had at Mets spring training. While sitting along the left field line in Port St. Lucie, Evan suddenly finds himself face to face with former Mets owner Fred Wilpon… and the interaction takes a bizarre turn involving a half-eaten sandwich. Evan and Tiki break down the awkward moment, debate whether Wilpon actually knew who Evan was, and try to figure out if the whole thing was a joke, a prank, or just an old-school rich guy sense of humor. Plus, more Mets spring training observations, the return of ballpark staples like Mr. Softee, and why nothing beats the first ice cream of the baseball season at Citi Field.
