Welcome to the Jay Bird Watching the official podcast of JaysJournal part of FanSided. We are here to bring you all of your Toronto Blue Jays news all in one Podcast. Our hosts Craig Borden and Co-hosts Liz McGuire and Jason Lyons have got the word on these birds. Join us for our bar room style Blue Jays chat. We pride ourselves on being the bar room chat for Blue Jays fans. We want to interact and hear everyone's stories while we have fun following our favorite baseball team!

How We Got Started

The Jay Bird Watching Podcast started as a side project by Craig Borden as an effort to interact with more Blue Jays fans during games. With Craig being from Rochester, NY he wanted to have more fun when he was not able to make the trip up to Toronto. At the time he was writing with Jays Journal on Fansided.com and wanted to chat with Jays fans during the game. In doing so, the Bird Watching Game Cast was born! Idea was to broadcast the game with fan commentary instead of the Blue Jays normal crew and have the Manning Cast of Blue Jays baseball. After doing one show a month on a weekend for a few months it was asked by people that had attended the Game Cast if we would ever want to migrate over to a podcast. After the success of that we did indeed translate over to a weekly show with Co-hosts Adam Corsair and Brendan Panikkar at the time. That trio carried the show for years and through many wonderful fan guests, players, and Blue Jays proxy people and we had so much fun!

Our Current Mission

The current team of Craig Borden, Liz McGuire, and Jason Lyons have continued to build the podcast to 450+ episodes and counting. Our goal is to be the "Peoples Blue Jays Podcast". We want to interact with fans and bring content that we are proud of as die hard Jays fans. There will be weeks in which we have fans on the show to discuss their Jays fandom in addition to former/ current players through out the Jays organization, Jays announcers, baseball industry experts, and just people that have fun around the game!

We want to have fun and entertain while we do it! Fans first and as always lets go Blue Jays!
