Writer/DirectorJon Hurwitz (COBRA KAI, HAROLD AND KUMAR GO TO WHITE CASTLE, AMERICAN REUNION) joined the Good Fundies boys.
Obviously, Brian and Roger started things off talking about the Mets designating Matt Harvey for assignment (10:15). Then Brian made a change to the METCON level, noting the Mets' unexpectedly strong NL East competition and the team's latest injury issues (33:00).
After that, Jon Hurwitz joined to chat about how he helped bring THE KARATE KID back to life (50:00), Keith Hernandez's bobblehead cameo and the Mets-related deleted scene from COBRA KAI(54:40), the movies he watched over and over again during the 80's (01:00:00), the possibility of a second season (01:02:00), if Harold or Kumar is a Mets fan (01:08:00), the 2002 marijuana Mets (01:08:30), how he became a Mets fan (01:09:00), why most comedians seem to be Mets fans (01:13:00), his thoughts on the 2018 team (01:15:50), why Jerry Seinfeld needs to "step up" (01:18:15), and pretty much everything else that's relevant.
In the mailbag segment, the boys figure out if the new catchers are failing the pitchers (01:24:00), why the Mets didn't sign Bartolo Colon (01:32:15), the issues with the Mets' farm system and why it isn't as amazing as the ones the Yankees and Atlanta has (01:34:30), if it's time for Peter Alonso and/or Gavin Cecchini (01:43:15), and if there's anything to the Manny Machado talk emanating from the 'Rumor Sphere' (01:46:00)
