Living in Canada and being a sports fan means you are used to your teams being overlooked. Canadian actors with mixed reviews, Jakob Ehman and David Patrick Flemming met on stage playing Shakespearean archenemies and now channel their love of all things Toronto Blue Jays. With new episodes daily, Underdogs is a must-listen for people looking for a different spin on the sports world, an experience the “insiders” can’t give you. Their signature Game Diary segments, a personal experience of the game set to new music Jakob makes every day, quickly became a fan favourite. Raw, unfiltered and darkly comedic with the creative production value to boot, David and Jakob give you the sports show only made possible by being the "outsiders" with nothing to lose.

We are as broken as you are. The Yankees have given us an historic beatdown. But there is hope. David is tired and eating bad bananas, he fights through the pain in a tough #GameDiary. We discuss Chase Anderson, the bullpen, Gurriel batting 7th, the ninth inning, Bo Bichette's legendary bat speed and mentality, the Gerber baby, Julian Merryweather's diminishing fastball, Josh Donalson, and what will happen in Philly.
