Getting Freaky With Brian and Ann Neale from Smoke Freaks and Ringing the Bell with Jack Fritz, Philadelphia Radio Personality and Author
Episode 338
Saturday, 11 April, 2026
Ann Neale and Brian Neale are the husband and wife team behind the Smoke Freaks competition barbecue team. Ann aka Ms. Freak and Brian aka Mr. Freak got hooked on competition BBQ at their first backyard contest in 2014. As per their website, "After entering with the hastily conjured name “Smoking Freaks,” a couple of beat-up WSMs and expectations no greater than having a good time, they ended up taking 1st place in Ribs. At the awards ceremony, they were mistakenly identified as “Smoke Freaks,” and the name stuck. Since then, Smoke Freaks have been on a mission to spread their love of BBQ and their passion for living life to the fullest with the world." They are complete cooks, but ribs are an area of expertise and they provide us with excellent tips for cooking better ribs. For more information on the Smoke Freaks go to https://www.smokefreaks.com/ Jack Fritz is a sports radio personality who is currently a co-host of the WIP Afternoon Show on 94.1 WIP. He is also the host of High Hopes, a podcast covering the Philadelphia Phillies. His latest project is the book, Ring the Bell: How the Philadelphia Phillies Built Baseball's Best Fan Base which he co-authored with Kevin Reavy. One blurb stated, "The book explores the deep, generational bond between the Phillies and their passionate fans, covering the team's history, memorable moments (both good and bad), and the unique culture that creates an unrivaled home-field advantage. The book delves into the emotional rollercoaster of being a Phillies fan, from the highs of World Series runs to the inevitable heartbreaks, capturing the collective history and identity of the fanbase."
