Bob Robinson, godfather of Pellet grills and Joel Bradley, author of Death By Data, plus guest co-host, Chef Ray Sheehan, and feelings are discussed

Bob Robinson is the man credited as being the godfather of pellet grills. Born and raised in St. Joseph, Missouri, Bob found his barbecue roots early on and helped create the barrel lid that pellet grills are known for today. Bob won many barbecue competitions while helping raise national awareness for the pellet grill segment. Bob stopped competing in the mid-1990s, but in 1998, he made a cameo appearance on a team with Fast Eddy for the Jack Daniel’s World Championship Competition. They were the only team using a pellet grill at that time. Bob discusses his role in the barbeccue industry and more specifically his role in helping the pellet grill become the cooking force it is today.

Joel Bradley is a long-time scout and high school coach of future major leaguers Anthony Rizzo, Mike Fiers, Andy Painter, and many others. His latest book, Death By Data: How Analytics And Technology Are Killing Baseball provides an inside look at how traditional player scouting and development have been replaced by a blind faith in algorithms and spreadsheets. The book looks at how we got here—from baseball’s obsession with statistics to the surrender to Statcast, high-speed cameras, and other mind-numbing technologies. Ballplayers have gone from flesh and blood and spirit to being a vast collection of numbers measured with invisible rulers. There is much more in the book and in our discussion.
