THE ANDY CARLSON SHOW: RIP, Prince

News that Prince had passed away at age 57 broke as we were wrapping up the episode. Andy opened with a brief tribute before the pre-recorded show.

Byung-ho Park is the Asian baseball player we deserve, also the one we need right now. Andy chats about how baseball helped him embrace his Asian roots as a kid growing up adopted in mostly white Minnesota and also complains about the timing of the Thibs signing torpedoing Thursday's show.

Today's Five Things Are

• Byung-ho Park is For Lovers

• Thibs in the Hizzle Fershizzie

• ESPN Fires Curt Schilling

• Aaron Hicks' Throw Was Really Boss, Man

• Eagles Trade with the Browns for the #2 Overall Pick

• RIP, Prince

All that and more on this edition of The Andy Carlson Show!

--------

The Andy Carlson Show is a 5-day a week podcast that talks Sport.... And Other Stuff. The brainchild of the loser behind the Purple FTW! Podcast (dedicated to the pain AND pleasure that is the Minnesota Vikings), the Dad Mode Podcast (common sense parenting in a politically correct world), as well as fondly remembered shows like Andy Must Di, Football Convos with Andy Carlson and the Claire vs Carlson Show. Andy's an avid fan of TV, movies, pop culture and just laughing and making fun of things in general. He unfortunately supports the Vikings, Twins, Timberwolves, Gophers and is slowly starting to get into hockey and the Wild. Andy's also a clean foods advocate and flirting with the idea of veganism. Which makes him.... UNBEARABLE to be around in social settings. Whatever happens in the future, know that he'll probably be behind a microphone and being a jackass about it. Thanks for stopping in and giving the show a listen.
