South Side Sox Podcast 43 — Pantera Has Fallen — 2021-05-03
Sox Populi - A Chicago White Sox podcast
05/04/21 • 39 min
Luis Robert is out for the foreseeable future, and naturally some of the South Side Sox crew got together to pour one out, commiserate, lash out, and speculate on what form of signed jersey-and-batting gloves tribute will be hanging in the visitor’s dugout come Tuesday night in Cincinnati.
Highlights of our talk together:
- Just how big a chunk of the preseason starting lineup and starting outfield is already lost in 2021?
- Is this somehow Adam Eaton’s doing?
- The utter lack of outfield depth does not suit a division title favorite
- Whither Melky Cabrera?
- Does the starting rotation’s success and presumed sturdiness belie any worries over having two-thirds-plus of the starting outfield currently sidelined?
- Would Rick Hahn ever repeat a challenge trade with the Cubs — say, to acquire Kris Bryant — after winning the Quintana-Jiménez-Cease trade so decisively?
- There has never been this much gallows humor in a South Side Sox podcast
- Likewise, this is a record number of heads-in-hands for an SSS podcast, so you may want to watch over on YouTube.

Sox Populi Podcast 163 — Reviewing our 2023 predictions! — 2023-11-21
Sox Populi - A Chicago White Sox podcast
11/21/23 • 59 min
With all the season’s-end awards issued, Sox Pop 163 assembled with Joe Resis, Brian O’Neill, Chrystal O’Keefe, Ryiin, Melissa Sage-Bollenbach and Brett Ballantini to review the good and bad of the 22 SSS prognostications on site before the 2023 season. (Also read our predictions-in-review article to accompany this podcast.)
- The host takes a victory lap
- Tip for next year: copy Chrystal
- Seventh-place finisher Brian quickly outs himself as the worst White Sox predictor of the bunch
- Random cap-tips and drive-bys for great and terrible picks, among them several picking the Mets as best in the NL (and special dispensation for Tommy Barbee picking them to win the World Series), Allie for both good (Gavin Sheets is terrible, Andrew Vaughn not bad!) and bad (one of many tabbing Lance Lynn as best pitcher)
- Celebrating the demise of the New York Yankees, and confirming inescapable loserdom of [redacted] and the Cubs
- A new round of loss predictions for 2024, among them Ryiin saying Pedro gets fired quick (nuh-uh replies Brett), Joe foresees a Soroka resurgence, and Chrystal is on board the losing train by seeing 118 losses

South Side Sox Podcast 127 — SoxivusFest, and manager talk — 2022-10-31
Sox Populi - A Chicago White Sox podcast
10/31/22 • 76 min
Happy Soxivus! We are following up our first year celebrating Soxivus in 2021 with a full two months of festivities in 2022. Last year, we picked managers who could dethrone Tony La Russa in running the White Sox. This week, our Feats of Strength take the form of programming a SoxFest, after the White Sox cancelled their official one for the third straight season.
We’re overjoyed to have Father Soxivus, Tommy Barbee — the man who hatched the Soxivus plan last year — with us on these podcasts. Joining Tommy to program our Fest are Jordan Hass, Allie Wesel, Melissa Sage-Bollenbach, Joe Resis and Malachi Hayes, with the festivities hosted by Brett Ballantini.
Read our accompanying Feats of Strength story on programming Soxivus Fest that much of this podcast refers to, please.
- Reviewing the short-sighted decision to cancel SoxFest for the third straight year — did someone cheap out on putting down the non-refundable deposit on McCormick Place?
- We can get up in arms about losing SoxFest and chide Rick Hahn for being afraid to face the music, but it’s the hundreds of young fans (and fans who cheer like children, there are many, no shame there) who really lose out
- On to our SoxivusFest, with Melissa explaining her Run Sox Run activity, which borrows from Herb Lawrence’s ill-fated sprint challenge during the season. We think we would fare better
- Joe’s Put Away Pitches event challenges fan managers to make the right call on 1-2. Anything better than in intentional walk comes away with a free SoxivusFest T-shirt.
- Tommy’s Manager Draft cleverly finds a way to cram all of the bad, recycled White Sox manager possibilities into one season, in a sort of college of coaches arrangement. There’s also an Inspiration Station that has to be heard or read to be believed
- Jordan comes through with two fun ideas, starting with Rick Hahn’s Mild Ride — duller than white bread. Also, there are outfield tryouts, and if participants manage to injure themselves in exotic (but, for the White Sox, predictable) ways, they’ll get a start in 2023 before Oscar Colás
- Allie stages an intervention for Hahn, with the intention of making him stronger in future trade and free agent negotiations and getting him a true Seat at the Table
- Malachi puts a twist on the Garage Sale of years past, where creative payment plans are not only encouraged, but expected
- Adrian Serrano was not able to join the podcast, but did provide events of his own, as well. Additionally, he created our Soxivus 2022 T-shirt available to order at our SSHP store
- The second half of the podcast — yes, this one is chock-full — addresses the Ozzie Guillén managing rumors.
- The panel is deadlocked as to whether the White Sox are actually going to hire Ozzie — who, let’s review, left the South Side the first time by announcing his new manager position during a game he was managing for the White Sox

Sox Populi - A Chicago White Sox podcast
04/03/24 • 61 min
In the second episode of the brand-new Ladies’ Night podcast, Kristina Airdo, Jacki Krestel, Hannah LaMotta, and Melissa Sage-Bollenbach discuss several topics related to our beloved — or despised, depending on the day — South Siders. Whether you’re a die-hard White Sox fan or not, there’s something for everyone. So, sit back, relax, and grab your favorite beverage because the girls hit a home run chatting about all things baseball, including:
- Who’s hot and who’s not around the league, including the Pittsburgh Pirates’ surprising 5-0 start. Unfortunately, they had to discuss the Yankees, too
- The good, bad, and ugly of the White Sox 1-4 start, highlighting the incredible pitching of Garrett Crochet and the immense disappointment of the $75 million-dollar man
- How the new milkshake at Guaranteed Rate is not widely available, as the franchise even dupes fans about the food offerings
- An in-podcast live reaction to the Pale Hose’s first win
The podcast will air bi-monthly, with the next episode dropping in mid-April.

Visiting Dugout Episode 59 - Miami Marlins — 2024-07-05
Sox Populi - A Chicago White Sox podcast
07/05/24 • 42 min
The White Sox extend their road trip to Miami to take on the now Tim Anderson-less Marlins. With a record not much better than Chicago, the Marlins continue to face similar struggles, in their case, it seems like every pitcher is injured.
Ely Sussman, creator of Fish On First joins to talk about the Marlins ahead of the series. (As a side note, Tim Anderson had not yet been designated for assignment at the time of this recording.)
Here is what we talked about:
- What's new in Miami?
- The Marlins aren't even in rebuild mode
- Tim Anderson and Jake Burger aren't doing so hot
- Kim Ng's revenge plot
- Bad ownership
- Trade deadline needs
- Is there an All-Star on this team?
- Pitching matchups
- Threats, keys, and fears
- MLB thoughts

Sharing Sox Podcast 128 — Big, blurting — 2024-05-13
Sox Populi - A Chicago White Sox podcast
05/14/24 • 47 min
For the first time ever, SSS duty geezer Leigh Allan has missed an episode of Sharing Sox. But his son and west coast correspondent, Will, took to the microphone in what amounted to a The Big Blurt reunion, with Rob Colletti and Bill Meincke.
And the timing was pretty good, given they trio talked on the heels of the only good week of baseball we’ve enjoyed with the White Sox this season. Naturally, such sunshine was not quite reflected in the podcast itself.
- The podcast kicks off with general introductions, plus the traditional singing hello from Rob to Bill
- Is it better to be historically bad, or to see good performances/wins that will yield improvements to the system and improve the next wave of White Sox talent?
- As it comes up in the podcast, Rob wrote a very popular piece on South Side Sox last month, addressing the horribleness of the organization
- Rob, and the rest of the crew, are hyped about ... the Double-A Birmingham Barons
- A sober assessment of Andrew Vaughn and his future in Chicago
- Loss predictions for the 2024 season
- A broader assessment of the MLB season will play out
- Weighing in on John Schriffen as our new play-by-play guy, and seeing it turn into a rough assessment of Hawk Harrelson
- Will has the only proper read on generosity toward the Cubs and Cubs fans

Sharing Sox Podcast 116 — What you see is what you Getz — 2023-09-02
Sox Populi - A Chicago White Sox podcast
09/02/23 • 41 min
Ah, the Chris Getz era of Sharing Sox begins, as SSS duty geezer Leigh Allan and his son and west coast correspondent, Will, wade into the swamp that is the mind of Jerry Reinsdorf and the resultant morass that is the Chicago White Sox to wonder whether promoting a man who has proven an utter, catastrophic failure in his current post is a sound baseball, or business, strategy.
First, though, the duo venture into happier thoughts, praising the Cleveland Guardians for picking Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo López off the waiver wire and wondering if that will be enough for the Guardians to catch the Twins, even with three of their own starters coming off of the IL in coming weeks. Unfortunately, no one claimed You Know Who, be it for ethical or monetary reasons, so the Sox are stuck with him for the rest of the season.
And, of course, no podcast this week would be complete without a look at the Fan Fat Fold Firearm Fiasco, which remains unsolved because, well, because, this is the White Sox, where nothing ever gets solved.
