Episode #135 features Former MLB Pitcher, Glendon Rusch, Hog Farmer, Tank Jackson, Pitmaster, Tuffy Stone, and a Special Visit and Offer for Our Listeners from Ray Sheehan of BBQ Buddha Glendon Rusch is a left-handed former Major League Baseball pitcher who played for the Kansas City Royals, New York Mets, Milwaukee Brewers, Chicago Cubs, San Diego Padres and Colorado Rockies.  He also has a reputation, apparently well deserved, of having been one of the nicest people in baseball.  In September 2006 he was diagnosed with a life-threatening blood clot in his lung, but he was able to mount a comeback and pitch again.  Legendary manager and two-time Baseball and BBQ podcast guest, Bobby Valentine once described Glendon as one of the gutsiest pitchers he ever coached.  In 2000, he won 11 games for the New York Mets, helping them get to the World Series.  Glendon is a huge fan of the music group, Pearl Jam, and did quite well in our name that  Pearl Jam song game.
