Fred Toucher’s 50th Birthday Extravaganza: Podcasts and Video
We pulled out all the stops for Fred Toucher’s 50th Birthday show. Because it’s not every day you turn the big 5-0.
If you’re new to Toucher & Hardy, today’s show was a pretty good example of what we’re all about. Plenty of sports talk, lots of laughs. And if you’re a long-time listener, you were treated to birthday greetings from some friends of the show.
Below you’ll find a brief rundown, complete with podcasts so you can listen (or revisit) hour by hour. You can also watch (or rewatch) the entire show on YouTube. We’re live every day, by the way. Just head over here to YouTube.

The show started, oddly enough, with a bit on Mark Wahlberg’s “Rise & Grind-set,” after a birthday greeting from Guy From Machine. Then we recapped the Celtics loss to Toronto in What Happened Last Night before covering Drake Maye’s engagement.

Birthday wishes from “Henry Rollins,” Mike Gorman and more highlighted a full hour of the Boston Herald’s Andrew Callahan in studio. Andrew put together a special Fred’s Birthday Edition of 2 Stats & 1 Lie, which ended with a big surprise.
