  • Season 10, Somehow | S10E1
    Dec 17 2025

    After just five days off, Team of Rivals accidentally launches an entirely new season — and immediately proves that, ten seasons in, we've learned nothing.

    Pete, Ron, and Elliott are all back together for the Season 10 premiere, featuring:

    • A little Cubs and Cardinals talk (because not much has happened… yet)

    • A whole lot of Bears discussion after Chicago’s bounce-back win and ahead of a rematch with the Packers

    • A special in-person appearance from Ron’s son Braden, a lifelong Packers fan and walking indictment of Ron’s parenting skills.

    • Ron’s Soccer Minute

    We regret nothing.
    (Except most of it.)

  • Wrap It Up! | S9E46
    Dec 12 2025

    Ron’s off this week — courtesy of a shiny new promotion and actual responsibilities — so the Cardinals portion of the show is short, accurate, and probably the most honest segment we’ve ever done.

    Pete and Elliott open with a Winter Meetings “recap” of St. Louis’s extremely quiet week before pivoting into all the Cubs news, rumors, almost-rumors, and projected hopes and dreams. Plus, the Bears did… well… things, so we talk about that too.

    A quick, sarcastic wrap-up of the week in Chicago and St. Louis sports — minus Ron, but plus jokes about Ron.

  • Season 9 Reheated: Godspeed, Mr. Baseball… | S9E5
    Nov 26 2025

    It’s Thanksgiving, which means we’re stuffing ourselves instead of the episode schedule. While we’re gone, enjoy one of our favorite episodes from earlier this season.

    -----

    In this fiery episode of the Team of Rivals Podcast, Ron, Elliott, and Pete tear into the latest MLB drama with all the fire and flair you’d expect. It kicks off with Ron going off on the Dodgers' controversial signing of Roki Sasaki, sparking a heated debate about the growing imbalance in the game. Ron’s so fed up with baseball’s direction, he might just quit being a fan altogether.

    The guys then stumble upon a shocking discovery – another podcast using the Team of Rivals name! Naturally, they debate whether to send in the lawyers or just invite the copycats on for a showdown. They dive into the absurdity of not even Googling your podcast name before launching and the lengths people will go for some lazy branding.

    Things take a turn when Pete rips into Cubs fans for rolling out the red carpet for Sammy Sosa’s return at this weekend’s Cubs Convention. Pete’s not having it, especially with Sammy’s nonstop thirst for attention – he’s fired up, to say the least.

    The mood lightens as the trio shifts gears to honor the legendary Bob Uecker, sharing some of their favorite stories and clips from his career. Ueck’s humor and wit made him a beloved icon in the world of baseball broadcasting, and the guys give him the shout-out he deserves.

    Finally, the guys wrap things up with a chat about the Chicago Bears’ coaching search, tossing around names like Mike McCarthy and wondering if the team can finally find a leader who’ll bring some much-needed success.

    It's a jam-packed episode full of rants, laughs, and some seriously hot takes. You won’t want to miss it!

  • Will This Season Never End? | S9E41
    Oct 29 2025

    It’s late October, and while the Cubs and Cardinals are long gone, the Team of Rivals crew is still here (for some reason). Ron, Elliott, and Pete break down a marathon World Series game that the media dubbed “the greatest ever” (SPOILER: it wasn’t), rant about Shohei Ohtani worship, and debate how much money is too much for one roster. The guys also dive into MLB expansion rumors, realignment madness, and what thee upcoming salary cap fight could look like.

    From there, it’s on to Bears football (and Caleb Williams' growing pains) and Ron’s Soccer Minute (featuring Liverpool’s suspicious stoppage time, and a look at Newcastle’s strong week and St. Louis City’s season finale).
