    The premiere episode of the Fancestor podcast - hosted by Aaron Cameron - features Garret Heinrich, a long-time Athletics fan, discussing his journey with the A's and the team's recent relocation from Oakland to Las Vegas. Garrett shares his early memories attending games with his father at the Coliseum, his favorite players, and his perspective on the Bash Brothers era of the 1980s. The conversation covers the debate around retiring player numbers, particularly for Jose Canseco and Mark McGwire, as well as Garrett's personal story of attending the final game at the Oakland Coliseum, involving a 2,000 mile journey from Texas. The two also discuss the fan response to the team's relocation, including the "Sell" movement, and Garrett's decision to continue supporting the team even in their new home in Las Vegas.
