The boys are back to discuss the streaky Padres, who's hot, and who's not, and the end of a San Diego sports radio era.

After having the radio tower signal pulled, The Mighty 1090 lasted a couple weeks while streaming online, only to have the whole operation shut down mid-sentence. Sad day for San Diego sports fans. What's next for the Mighty 1090 talent?

This Zero Chance Podcast is 100% Game of Thrones talk. SPOILERS EVERYWHERE. If you haven't caught up on Season 8, don't listen!

We couldn't handle tip toeing around all the spoilers, so we just did a completely separate ZCP episode, so we could talk it through. And lemme tell ya, it's not hard to tell we didn't prep for this one. Just two idiots talking about everything we loved, with reactions, predictions, and side boob.

MANNY MACHADO SIGNS WITH THE PADRES!!! Against all odds, it happened. This is the seismic shift in the San Diego sports landscape. The single largest free agent singing in American sports history. The Padres. Unbelievable.

Speaking of unbelievable, Bruce Bochy is retiring. Should his number be retired in San Diego? Let's get into it friends!
