Beantown Banter Ep. 29 – “Bruins Playoffs Preview with Matt Castle”
Brady and Patrick are back this week with a huge show to take you through everything happening in and around Boston sports.

Next we’re joined by Ethan Fuller of WTBU Sports and Celtics Lead (@ethman43) to discuss the C’s end of the regular season and preview Round One versus the Pacers. After, we break down the Red Sox’ poor start and look ahead to the coming week. Next, we get into the news-less Patriots and mention some candidates for the Patriots Hall of Fame. We quickly touch on national news, like the National Championship game for NCAA Men’s Basketball and the men’s Frozen Four; we also hit on the drama with Antonio Brown on Twitter. Lastly, we preview the Masters to wrap up the show.
