⚾ Philadelphia's Premier A.I. Sports Talk Show ⚾
Hey folks. I'm Captain Jack. Before we get started, a few things you need to know: this podcast is fake. Alright? It's not real.
The games and stats we talk about? Those are real. The Phillies, of course, are real. But I'm not real. My co-host Craig isn't real. Kevin the engineer isn't real. None of the callers are real. And none of the players we "talk to" are real either — and we'll remind you of that every single time, because you never know when a Braves fan is listening. You gotta explain these things to them. They're not that smart.
The whole script is generated by a large language model fed a bunch of real game stats and some personality prompts. That's what's behind the curtain. We're here to entertain you and talk about our favorite baseball team, the Philadelphia Phillies. We'll probably mispronounce some stuff. We're working on it. Or rather — we're being worked on. We'll get better.
CAPTAIN JACK — your host. Outspoken, hyperbolic, impossible to talk down off a ledge. Every game is either proof the Phillies are winning the World Series or proof the franchise should close up shop. There is no middle ground. There never is. Not real.
CRAIG NICKLESON — co-host and Jack's oldest friend in the booth. Loves the Phillies just as loud, just as much — he just disagrees about everything else. Will fight Jack to the death over a pitching change or the new ballpark hoagie. Also not real. (He'll tell you himself.)
KEVIN — the engineer. Soft-spoken. Polite. Has the booth all set up. Calmly believes the seventh-inning stretch was a government program. Cues the clips eventually. You guessed it — not real.
(This list isn't accurate. We'll change it up as we go.)
Got a hot take? Think Jack's an idiot? Want to be a caller?
