Episode 05: The 1984 Chicago Cubs finally made the playoffs.
Jim returns to reminisce with Shon about a big GenX sports moment: the incredible 1984 Chicago Cubs season—a year that saw the team capture their first division title in nearly four decades. From Ryne Sandberg’s MVP performance to Rick Sutcliffe’s dominant pitching, we’ll relive the highs, heartbreaks, and everything in between. Join us as we explore how the Cubs electrified Wrigley Field, thrilled Chicago fans, and brought postseason baseball back to the North Side for the first time since 1945. Whether you’re a lifelong Cubs fan or just love baseball history, this is an episode you won’t want to miss!"
Also, for you music fans, Jim talks about meeting a famous songwriter and big-time Cubs fan at Wrigley and how this musician left his own imprint on Cub fandom forever.
