Let's look back at the 2021 Reds...and there are far more positives about this season than many of you think. Chad's solo this week to discuss why this year's version of the ol' Redlegs just might be memorable when we look back at this club in five years.

Also, at the end, Chad talks about the future of the podcast.

It's been a rough stretch, but is it possible that we can find some positives from the 2021 Reds season? Chad Dotson and Doug Gray look at a couple of different scenarios for how the Reds season will end, and analyzed each. We also came to some conclusions about why the Reds roster management has been so horrifically bad in 2021.

This is the 389th episode, so you've likely already made a judgment about whether Chad Dotson and Chris Garber are bad at talking. But some evidence about Reds general manager Nick Krall's talent for saying words became clear this week. We dove into the Nick Senzel saga, Joey Votto's continuing greatness, and the roster machinations of the week.

Plus, is it Wild Card or bust for the Cincinnati Reds at this point?

These questions and more will be answered on this week's episode!
