    Finally, a chance to talk to Deniis about the 39 years we have known each other in baseball. Dennis tells us about why he didn't really play baseball until he found senior baseball. Before that, he became an accomplished water polo player and diver. His diving took him all the way to the Olympic trials and even had him dive against Greg Louganis.

  • Taylor Waters

    Sometimes baseball gets short-circuited at a young age. But interest in the game continues anyway. Even if it can become part of a novel you end up writing. Look for American Boys "A Stupid Baseball Story" on Amazon! Along with other books by Taylor Waters. On this show, we get to find out how writing screenplays led to novels. We hear about the mentors who inspired Taylor along the way. Comments to barrelitup@yahoo.com. Complete list of all our guests at jayciambrone.com on page 5.

  • Ted Learakos
    Mar 3 2026

    A little different this time. Talking with Ted about the current state of mortgage rates and future possibilities. In addition, we used a situation we were both involved in to talk about the positives and pitfalls of buying and financing a HUD home. Most HUD homes are bought with cash by those who plan to flip them. An entirely different situation if you plan to renovate and live in that property. Comments and questions to barrelitup@yahoo.com.

  • Mike Thatcher Part 1
    Feb 10 2026

    Baseball has always been number one for Thatch ever since his grandpa took him to a Giants game as a 7 year old. Success in Little League (even having to get on 3 buses to get to a playoff series) just fueled that passion. High school and JC followed. As with many having to make a living slowed being able to play until Senior baseball came along. Hear about those that made it possible to continue to play.
