After a two week layoff the HOTSPROTSTAKES Pod is back, this week @TheRyanWalsh was busy with work and unable to join, but @CallMeBednard was able to step into his spot admirably.

We go in-depth on the incident in Boston where a fan yelled racial slurs at Baltimore Orioles outfielder Adam Jones, we discuss if the Taco Bell Fried Chicken Chips are actually chips, if you should ever propose in a stadium, and what the ESPN layoffs mean for sports coverage going forward.

Settle in, grab a hot or cold one, and enjoy the sultry sounds of HOTSPROTSTAKES Pod 13.
