Named a "Best New Podcast" in 2024 by Audible and Vulture. "This is no simple sports-recap podcast. Instead, each episode plays a bit like a dispatch from a foreign land — in this case Dodgers fandom — in which a local correspondent (that would be Parks) walks you through present concerns." (Vulture) Noted for its storytelling, sound design, and original music. A love letter to baseball and radio ... more

  • A fallen podcast

    2024 season was one the best podcasts ever. But since then the ads are sooo long!! Ruins it for me. Then they did an episode about the WBC, but didn’t have even an average fans knowledge of it. Very disappointing.

  • Face of MLB has scandal swept under rug

    Imagine paying the best play player in baseball or a bag of potato chips, leaving room for you to overspend and defer money left and right!.

    Imagine your best player being caught in a gambling scandal, and having it swept under the rug and pinned on his interpreter

    Meanwhile Clase from the Cincinnati Reds is never going to play again.

  • I don’t like baseball, but…

    Not a fan of baseball. Never listened to anyone talk about baseball for more than for more minutes. I am a native Californian and the only baseball games I’ve seen have been in other states. You sir are making me care about the Dodgers. I hope to watch and attend a game next season. Don’t know why I care now but I do. Time to get my Dodgers blue hat.
