Matt and Dom discuss the latest chaotic, dare we say suspicious, political shenanigans in Nevada as A's owner John Fisher and his willing weasel Dave Kaval continue in their attempts to rip the A's from their home of 55 years. More positively, we discuss the way Oakland is stepping up the fight with the upcoming Reverse Boycott and more.

2022 was a trying year for Oakland A's fans, but a new year always brings renewed hope, or at least some temporary blind optimism. Dom, Hannah and Matt are joined by newly-installed official member Mark to look at the catcher torch being passed on from Stephen Vogt and Sean Murphy to Shea Langeliers, plus we have a whole load of Oakland Roots and Soul news to catch up on too.

The pessimism surrounding the Oakland A's heading into the 2022 season has been pushed to one side by a surprisingly competitive first 17 games on the field, and a passionate response to the expected media nonsense around attendance at the Coliseum. Dom has just got back from a trip to Oakland where he took in some Roots games and made a special trip to Stockton to see the A's Single-A affiliate the Ports, so Matt catches up with him on all the news from the trip and what's happened during the first couple of weeks of the A's 2022 season.  ..read more
