PODCAST

From The Cheap Seats

Thad Halcli Media, LLC

A Millennial girl and a Gen Xer guy deconstruct the Washington Nationals and the game of MLB baseball generally. Both devotional and irreverent, we blow up the “sports talk” genre with humorous, unapologetic, and shamelessly opinionated baseball news outside the press box, the dugout, and the stadium urinals.

The Short Happy Life of Ernest Hemingway

From The Cheap Seats ·

2022/12/02

Ernest Hemingway, many scholars say, was the greatest American author of the 20th century. Were you forced to read this author in high school? Did you love or hate that assignment? (BTW- I hated him at age 17). But who was this guy actually? He was awarded both the Pulitzer and Nobel prizes, a very rare two-fer for any author. In both his books and personal life, he often appeared to cultivate a highly publicized, ultra-masculine image. But is that his real story? His classic works often reveal a

Cryptocurrency – Truth…or Dare?

Love At First Bite - Sharks: Cherished Summer Memories

From The Cheap Seats ·

2022/08/15

Since the 1975 film, “Jaws” broke every box-office record, sharks became America’s favorite, summer terror. While Caribbean/Gulf sharks in New England waters were pure fiction 50 years ago…that is not true today. Recently, there has been an explosion of unprecedented shark sightings and attacks in North Atlantic waters. Are these predators truly man-eaters trolling our beaches for a human buffet? Or, are they mostly minding their own business and simply following their food sources' migration into

So our version of a vacation is to send our co-host, Ellie, to an all-expense paid trip to one of America’s favorite destinations – a theme park. Back in 1955, Walt Disney made a crazy investment that everyone on Wall Street advised him not to do. He put every dime he had on the line and held his breath. It was an early theme park called, “Disneyland”. Despite dire projections, it paid off a million times over and so
