Section 10 Podcast Episode 167: Joe Kelly AKA Jim Buchanan Comes To Barstool HQ
On Episode 167 of the Section 10 Podcast, we’ve got a very special guest. It’s been three years in the making, but the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the show, Mr. Joe Kelly AKA Jim Buchanan.
We start the interview off with Kelly explaining why he changed his mind about coming on Section 10 since he originally said he wouldn’t do it unless the Red Sox won the World Series, the day he got traded to the Red Sox, a behind the curtain look at his strikeout in the 8th inning against Jurickson Profar with the bases loaded in Texas, what he remembers from facing the Red Sox in the 2013 World Series, the story behind the National Anthem standoff before Game 6 of the 2013 NLCS, what percentage of what he says to the media is bullshit, behind the scenes of Jim Buchanan, whether or not he’d ever be Wally for a day, watching the Red Sox from the bleachers while he was suspended, his charitable causes, the Tyler Austin-Yankees brawl, how he went to his own suspension hearing, if he expects retaliation in this Red Sox-Yankees series, how he’ll react to getting booed at Yankee Stadium, if and when he starts to check the standings, what the vibe is like with this team compared to the previous Red Sox teams he’s been on, worst shower body on the team, whether he would ever get into podcasting as an active player, whether or not he’d ever fight at Rough N Rowdy, a staring contest with Coley, and what Red Sox fans should know about this team.
Outside of the interview, we preview the Red Sox-Yankees series, Hubbs accidentally sending me a text that was about me and meant for someone else, Dave O’Brien ruining the Jerry Remy proposal segment during the game broadcast, and a listener wants us to shout out his fiancee and we don’t know how to do that appropriately.
