With the Dodgers trying to come back to beat the Braves and reach the World Series, Andy and Brian welcome Jon Weisman, author of two books about the Dodgers and the author of the fantastic "Dodger Thoughts" blog.

We chart the anxiety Dodgers fans feel now every October, and why they often can get hostile (years of disappointment will do that, but there's more too it, Jon says).

What about the role of Dave Roberts? Or Clayton Kershaw? Is this the year Kershaw breaks through, and puts the disappointment of previous postseasons behind him? What if that validation never comes?

Plus, a pop culture game from A-Z.
