Well hey, it's the FINAL episode of this wonderful season! Thank you so much for tuning in and sending over kind sports-centric words/thoughts/reviews. We love ya, and it's been a blast! AND for this final week...Larry and Christian sit down with longtime friend, sporty storyteller, and hardcore PickleBall enthusiast, Katina Dutton, to dig into stories of the sports/games/activities we take on as we get a bit long in the tooth (as the olds say). We talk stories all about making the transition from competitive team and individual sports to fitness, rec, and (dare we say...) "lifetime" sports - what that means, how that feels, what to do with an aging bod that still wants to go go go! Among other things we talk tai chi, golf, bocci, backpacking, shuffleboard, swimming,water aerobics, cornhole, weightlifting, pingpong, Sport Courts, solo hoop shooting, recovery time, bad backs/arms/knees/hips. AND most definitely we get into the merits and nuances of the aforementioned and suddenly ubiquitous sport of PickleBall. Banter, balm, and nostalgia ensue. Enjoy!

In this season's penultimate episode Rosen and Winn peruse the narrative Wildcard notions of the slip sandal, Michael Jordan's generosity, Adam Morrison weeping at center court, why Gonzaga gets to be the "chosen one" when it comes to basketball mid-majors, and more sporty esoterica. THEN we bring you TWO remarkable "Wildcard" stories that didn't neatly fit into our previous episode themes! Friends of the podcast (and real-life friends) Carrie Seymour and Greg Heinzman deliver stories of family, complicated relationships, messy sports-centric traditions, the love of sporting animals, humans, and deep down just what sports means to them. We make a pilgrimage to the Kentucky Derby, and we navigate the football fields, basketball courts, and baseball diamonds of Walla Walla, Washington with these two spot-on storytellers. Come along for this storied ride, y'all!! Carrie Seymour and Greg Heinzman are writers, educators, mentors, and award-winning faculty members at Boise State University.

This week Larry and Christian sit down to cull three remarkable stories all about Adult Sports Leagues (softball featured prominently!) from Mr. Grant Olsen, Sam Berman, and Ben Tanzer. Among SO many other things we talk about the lingering triumph of stealing bases and missing signs, batting 1.000 and coaches who suck. We explicate getting beaned in the face (twice!) by very hard, very fast-moving spheres. And...we spin a tale of showing up to the softball diamond super-duper high and ready to play the best game of your life. Relive the glory days with the boys, and enjoy these well-spun yarns!

This week co-hosts Larry Rosen and Christian Winn leave the storytelling guests at home and get into the nuances and narratives of just what sports mean to them. As players and participants, fans and followers, Winn and Rosen certainly live, and have lived, lives where sports play a significant role. They dive into old school Kingdome Mariners days, the magic of the NY Mets, the untimely death of Thurman Munson, bonding with their fathers, mothers, sons, sisters, and lifelong friends around youth soccer, bowling at the JCC, tennis in the park, 2-on-2 basketball, and a whole lot more.

This week we once again eschew the ball sports and this time head to the skateparks and mean streets to find our stories from the world of skateboarding. First up, Story Forward's own Larry Rosen brings us a medley of wicked formative stories from his time as a serious (more serious than we ever knew!) skateboard kid in the early days of the SoCal scene. The Concrete Wave skatepark, fitting in, and Stacy Peralta play prominent roles. THEN our man Brett Badostain of EaseDrop Podcast Network fame delivers a touching father/son runaway and return story about his angst-ridden skateboarding prodigal days, and the loving father who understood just what young Brett needed.

This week Larry and Christian get into some personal banter and nuances of a game they both love, and love to hate - ah, GOLF. They also sit down with PGA Tour staff writer, logtime golf journalist, novelist, and epic yarnspinner, Cameron Morfit, to talk about his famous and infamous golf-centric encounters with Bill Murray and Bill Clinton. Next up is the burgeoning poet, storyteller, and golfing talent Ryan Marsh who gets into the beauties and small tragedies (read: some Canada geese may be harmed in this episode) of the game he so loves. Then, Story Forward's own Christian Winn gets into a circuitous story of his sporty sophomore year in high school - camaraderie, competition, and the spectre of violence on the links!

This week Christian and Larry sit down with fiction writer and blue-collar oracle Ross Hargreaves, author and worldwide literary talent Grant Faulkner, and the remarkable ESPN producer/talent and author of the must-read sports tome, FANATICUS, Justine Gubar. We dig into stories of meeting a dude at a bar who claimed he poisoned Michael Jordan in Park City, UT, the night before his legendary "Flu Game" vs. The Jazz; a litany of getting going all-in with a whole host of sports superstars in a lifetime of loving sports; and reporting about, dealing with, and trying (to little avail) to make good with a number of WAY over-the-top and pretty messed[up Ohio State football fans.

It's August. It's hot. The days are both long and short as summer '22 plays out its final act. And...we were feeling a bit nostalgic this week as well as gearing up to head to various theme parks, National Parks, city parks, and dog parks ourselves. SO, we've rebooted one of our favorite episodes from '21's Stories of Summer season - The Theme Parks of Summer. Thusly, we ask you to grab a cold drink, take in the smell of drooping late-summer flowers and the hot pavement seeping sulfur and oil, feel the warm wind rise across your face, and step through these theme park gates once again to take in some stories for a time.

They dig into a handful of wild and sentimental stories about their own experiences, both as youngsters and adults, taking vacations far and wide with their kin folk. Then Correspondents Joe Davidson and Ryan Marsh hop in with their unique and heartfelt tales of epic adventures in the woods and bar takeovers in Italy. Enjoy! Travel on and travel safely!

This week Larry and Christian loop back to the nagging question of what exactly constitutes a summer read. They give a few of their own takes, but more importantly have a sit down with Pulitzer Prize winning author and all around amazing human, Anthony Doerr. We're going big time on you! Anthony gets into his soon to be released novel, Cloud Cuckoo Land, where the title came from, the intricacies of process and scope he embraced as he wrote this 600-page beauty, and his thoughts, as a writer and reader, on what makes a summer read a summer read. Anthony was so great we've skipped the Correspondent this week and just stuck with the man. The Correspondents triple up next week though. Enjoy! Cloud Cuckoo Land is released on 9/28 right as summer winds down and we head into fall. You can pre-order your copy today if you go to anthonydoerr.com, or to your favorite indie bookseller!

This week we're hitting the road, or at least discussing the power and majesty of the iconic American road trip in summer (and really always). Larry and Christian sit down with best-selling novelist and road trip aficionado, Jonathan Evison, to talk about how uniquely embedded the movement and ideals of the road trip are in his work, even as Evison has never quite recognized all the road trip nuances in his novels.

This week Larry and Christian sit down with Will Leitch, journalist, novelist, founding editor of Deadspin, father, blogger, and, among many other things, cohost of the wildly popular movie-centric podcast, Grierson and Leitch. We talk about the entity known as The Summer Movie, dig deep into what that moniker actually means, how it's carried out, who goes and sees summer blockbusters and who defers to the art house gems in the heat of the season. We examine a few tropes, favorites, bombs, and the simple joy of going to an air conditioned movie theater on a hot summer day or night. Our amazing Correspondents this week are writers and storytellers Allison Maier and David McNeil, two movie aficionados and friends who talk growing up watching summer movies in Saudi Arabia, the necessity of bringing The Bourne Identity to a party and making everyone watch while you narrate, and the joy of browsing the aisles of any given Blockbuster (RIP).

This week Larry and Christian get into a particularly memorable July 4th weekend that took place on San Juan Island in 1989. A dozen friends, all dudes. Far too much beer. Plenty of laughter, injuries, fuzzy antics, and stories that have lived on as pieces of the puzzle that was our lives back in our early twenties. We get into how we all remember and tell the story of that weekend from a unique vantage, and how memory has and continues to shape that years-gone narrative as time has marched on. We managed to wrangle one old friend from that lost weekend to come on as our guest. Eirik Olsen joins us to tell and talk about how he adds up that Independence Day weekend in 1989. Then, the amazing Kevin Smokler delivers our correspondent piece all about his family's tradition of counting flags every July 4th.
