About East Meets West Sports with Rick Garcia and Corey Nathan
Coast-to-coast perspectives. One shared passion.
On East Meets West Sports, L.A. legend Rick Garcia and Jersey’s own Corey Nathan tackle the world of sports from opposite sides of the map — and often opposite points of view. Whether it’s baseball, basketball, football, or the culture that surrounds the games we love, Rick and Corey bring stories, laughs, and a little friendly trash talk to keep it all fun.
Because no matter where you’re from, we all speak sports.
The Universe Wants Dodgers-Yankees, the Rams Want a Win, and Fernando Wants You to Budget || w/ Rick Garcia and Corey Nathan
Rick Garcia and Corey Nathan size up the MLB postseason bracket, from the White Sox's grit to Corey's theory that a Dodgers-Yankees World Series would put the universe back in balance. Then it's football: whether a 1-2 Rams team should worry with Philly and Buffalo up next, the Giants trading for J.J. McCarthy after losing Jaxson Dart for the season, and a three-week check on which hot and cold starts are real. Pop That Culture closes with Raiders rookie Fernando Mendoza's new money-advice series for Gen Z.
