Podcasts about Bull Durham

Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Twins, who fell to 3-7 with another sad loss to the Royals. Rocco Baldelli was ejected, bringing to mind another angry manager: the leader of the Durham Bulls in the fictional movie Bull Durham, who lamented that baseball is a simple game. "You throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball." The Twins aren't good at any of those things right now. 9:00: Chris Hine joins Rand to break down the final four games of the Wolves season and the very crowded playoff race. 32:00: Florida wins the title and the Gophers land a recruit.

#532 - Play ball! Baseball season has started and we decided to watch Bull Durham. Jeff: 5, Alex: 5, Scott: 5

We're celebrating the start of the baseball season by digging into one of the sport's great movie romances: Ron Shelton's steamy 1988 classic Bull Durham, starring Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon, and Tim Robbins in a love triangle fans are calling "Challengers for straight people"! Join in as we discuss our own minor league experiences, Kevin Costner's star trajectory, our feelings on various baseball rule changes, and messy kitchen sex. Plus: What happened to the Disney "based on a true story" sports movies? What's the best basketball movie? And can minor-league teams not afford full-size towels?

What's the best baseball movie of all time? It might be new, but Carson Lund's EEPHUS belongs in the conversation. Anders and Aren dig into the independent baseball drama and explore the film's approach to time, use of character actors, and uniquely cinematic exploration of baseball and the end of things. Afterwards, the Brothers discuss some of the best baseball movies of all time, including BULL DURHAM, FIELD OF DREAMS, and A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN.0:43 - Keynote2:10 - Table Talk: “Eephus”38:29 - The Current: Best Baseball Movies39:44 - Table Talk: “Bull Durham”45:06 - Table Talk: “Field of Dreams”47:52 - Table Talk: “Everybody Wants Some!!”49:46 - Table Talk: “Homer at the Bat”54:00 - Table Talk: “61*”56:45 - Table Talk: “Major League”58:17 - Table Talk: “A League of Their Own”Clips:- “Bull Durham” (1988)- “Eephus” (2024)- “Field of Dreams” (1989)- “A League of Their Own” (1992)- “The Simpsons” (1992)Read more of the 3 Brothers' reviews, features, and roundtables at https://3brothersfilm.comSubscribe to the 3 Brothers Film YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCO1zge4GZWu3-mdH-VPv8tw

To celebrate baseball's opening day, I'm re-running this classic episode with Ron Shelton, the award-winning screenwriter and director of the movie Bull Durham.

57th on the 1999 box office chart, For Love of the Game marked director Raimi's first foray into big-budget, mass-market filmmaking (which would ultimately pave the way for being handed the enormous task of finally bringing Spiderman to the screen in 2002) But love and baseball was very different territory for Raimi, and his inexperience in the realm of pop movie making (as well as in directing romance) proved to be a hindrance. For Love of the Game is, unofficially, the third and final entry in Kevin Costner's baseball trilogy, following 1989's Field of Dreams and 1988's Bull Durham. The film tries to balance its dual nature as a romance and a straight sports movie, and while it occasionally hits the mark, most critics agreed: For Love of the Game is pretty great when it's about the game, and not so great when it's about the love. But it's baseball season, and this was by far 1999's biggest baseball-themed movie, so we asked friend of the show - and White Sox diehard - Jacki Krestel to help us call some balls and strikes on this one!

We're setting sail for love as we look at the romance of Leo McCarey's 1957 melodrama An Affair to Remember, starring Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr! Join in as we discuss our favorite cinematic ships, singing dub star Marni Nixon, and an abundance of children's choirs. Plus: How did Nicky Ferrante get famous? How do we get AFI to update their ranked lists of movies? How is this movie thirty minutes longer than 1939's Love Affair, which allegedly uses the same script? And, most importantly, why can't they just be together??? Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe!

Alec, Mattson and JJ center on the film "Bull Durham," a notable work within the realm of sports cinema featuring Kevin Costner. Throughout our discourse, we collectively express our dissatisfaction with the film, emphasizing its perceived lack of coherence and depth. As we delve into various aspects of the narrative, we critique the film's reliance on romantic entanglements rather than a substantive exploration of baseball itself. The dialogue reveals a general consensus that the comedic elements fall flat, failing to elicit the intended humor. Ultimately, we invite our audience to engage with our reflections and share their perspectives on this polarizing classic, questioning its esteemed status among baseball films.Support us:https://www.patreon.com/whatsourverdictEmail us: hosts@whatsourverdict.comFollow us:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whatsourverdictTwitter: @whatsourverdictInstagram: @whatsourverdictYouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UC-K_E-ofs3b85BnoU4R6liAVisit us:www.whatsourverdict.com

It's deep dive day here at Fated Mates and we're reading an absolute banger of a historical -- Julie Anne Long's fifth Pennyroyal Green book, What I Did for a Duke. We talk about great romance kisses, about age gaps and how they operate in books, about house parties and art and sacrifice and how sexy it is when someone actually sees you for who you are. If you haven't read this one yet, do yourself a favor and do it right now.

Schwarzman Building. From what I can tell, it didn't actually have anything to do with Andrew Carnegie, but he did donate $5 million to ensure that the New York Public Library had branch libraries in communities around the city. He also donated a lot of money to other things, that's a fun thing billionaires used to do. Read more about doing the forbidden kind of “romance stuff” in the library. Jen talked to the New York Public Library's Best New Romance List Committee Co-Chairs Kate Fais and Grace Loiacon back in February.In 2022, we recorded our “Break in case of emergency” episode, and it was in fact two sisters, Cait and Kara who requested the episode. PS: We are in emergency. Feel free to break those out now.Julie Anne Long's The Beast Takes a Bride was on our Best of 2024 episode. What I Did for a Duke is the 5th book in her Pennyroyal Green series. “It must have been a lie,” is what Jen's grandma Betty used to say if you lost your train of thought and couldn't remember what you were saying. This is a good speech from Crash Davis, the pitcher played by Kevin Costner in the 1988 movie Bull Durham (also, Nuke says “what's all that molecule stuff?” which is pretty funny considering the title of this episode).The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston had a Titian exhibition back in 2022 called Women, Myth and Power, and it seems like a thing Genevive would have liked it a lot.

Carson Lund's feature debut EEPHUS moves at the same deliberate pace as the trick pitch for which it's named, leisurely unfolding over the course of a season-ending game between two small-town recreation leagues that's also probably the last time many on the field will ever play. This week we're joined again by film critic and baseball lover Tim Grierson to discuss how EEPHUS approaches that sense of finality with low-key humor and a subtle sense of nostalgia, before bringing Ron Shelton's BULL DURHAM back on the field to compare these two films' ideas about aging, masculinity, and America's pastime, emphasis on the “past.” And in Your Next Picture Show we offer a recommendation for another unconventional baseball movie that offers a rarely seen perspective on the game, 2008's SUGAR. Please share your thoughts about BULL DURHAM, EEPHUS, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email or voice memo to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Quietly observing as a small-town recreation league plays out their last game of the season, and likely ever, the new EEPHUS is a feature-length subversion of “the big game,” simultaneously embracing and rejecting such baseball-movie cliches in a manner that reminded us of 1988's BULL DURHAM. We're joined this week by pinch-hitter Tim Grierson to discuss all the ways Ron Shelton's classic, often cited as the best baseball movie ever, throws out the sports-movie playbook, from its multiple protagonists and rom-com structure to its acknowledgment that baseball, like life, has an expiration date. And in Feedback, a frequent contributor returns with some bonus observations from our recent pairing of PRESENCE and THE OTHERS.

Multiple sources told RadarOnline.com Costner, 69, and Stone, 66, only had eyes for each other at the 2024 Governors Awards at Dolby Theater in Hollywood. "They started off politely with small talk then he put on his Kevin Costner charm, you know, like the vibes he gave off in Bull Durham and Tin Cup, like 'heyyyy baby'. She claimed her ex-husband, Phil Bronstein, "thought the same" as Costner's estranged wife Baumgartner. Costner married Baumgartner in 2004 and welcomed three children: sons, Cayden, 16, and Hayes, 14, and 13-year-old daughter, Grace.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Welcome back to another episode of the Video Store Podcast! As baseball season is winding down, we've selected four more baseball films to help you get through the post-season, especially if your team isn't looking quite as good as they were at the start. Batting first is 1988's Bull Durham, written and directed by Ron Shelton. This film is a wonderful snapshot of minor league ball in the late 80s and reminds the audience that it's not just about the game. It's about figuring out who you are and what you want out of life, regardless of your occupation. Starring Kevin Costner, Susan Sarandon, and Tim Robbins, it's a drama that will keep you swinging for the fences. Next up is 1989's Major League. A wealthy divorcee obtains the Cleveland Indians in the divorce but wants to relocate the team to a warmer climate. However, the escape clause only triggers if attendance drops below a certain threshold. Stacking the team with nobodies and has-beens, she hopes to move to Miami by the end of the season. When the team learns why they've been dealt the hand they've dealt, they rally to show her what they're really made of. It's a cheeky comedy that will make you stand up and cheer. Batting third in our line up is The Natural from 1984, starring Robert Redford, Glenn Close, Robert Duvall, Kim Basinger, Wilford Brimley, Barbara Hershey, Darren McGavin, and Robert Farnsworth. Adapted from a book of the same name by Bernard Malamud, The Natural is a 4-time Academy Award-nominated film about finding your purpose, even in less-than-ideal circumstances, and knowing that you could be “the greatest that ever was.”On clean-up duty is 1989's Field of Dreams. If you podcast it, they will come, and they hopefully will check out this film. Field of Dreams is about creating space, both literally and figuratively, for the unimaginable. It's about making peace with your past, and moving towards a better future. It's a truly beautiful film, nominated for three Academy Awards, and boasts an incredible cast of performers, including Kevin Costnery, Amy Madigan, Ray Liotta, James Earl Jones, Burt Lancaster, Gaby Hoffmann, and Tim Busfield, among others.

Here's Julie's list of favorite sports movies. A League of Their Own This is a Satellite Sister Solid Gold choice. This movie has everything: sisters, baseball, Geena Davis, Rosie O”Donnell, Madonna in center field, and Tom Hanks telling the players,” there's no crying in baseball”. Bend It Like Beckham A wonderful coming of age/cultural assimilation/girl power story about Jess Bijam who wants to play soccer like her idol, David Beckham but struggles to respect her traditional Indian family values. And, hello, Keira Knightley plays Jess's friend and David Beckham makes a cute cameo. Bull Durham It's hard to pick my favorite baseball movie but the kitchen scene with Susan Sarandon and Kevin Costner makes Bull Durham my top pick. The movie is about baseball in a very deep way but also has breezy romantic comedy.  Rocky I loved the original Rocky. It's the ultimate underdog movie and has one of the best theme songs ever. Also, Talia Shire shines in the film.  Hoop Dreams An excellent documentary following two young Chicago basketball prospects trying to use their athletic talents to get to a better life. The two stars face racism, poverty, injury and other roadblocks trying to make their dreams come true. The film left me in tears.  Friday Night Lights Watch the original movie with clear eyes and a full heart. Before there was Kyle Chandler as Coach Eric Taylor, there was Billy Bob Thornton and Tim McGraw in a film that follows the coach and players of a high school football team in Odessa, Texas. As a transplant, I am beginning to appreciate what Friday night football means to Texas communities. The film is as much about Texas culture as it is about football.  Bad News Bears Haven't we all been on a team for work or play where you feel like a group of misfits or outcasts? This is a movie about kids who never expect to care about competing or winning. Tatum O'Neal is the 11-year old star pitcher. Walter Matthau as an alcoholic ex-baseball pitcher turned coach is perfect. The ending involves a championship game and a big celebration for the Bears.   Liz's sport movie faves include Robert Redford in Downhill Racer and Bill Murray in Caddyshack! Plus Without Limits, a great T&F movie with Billy Crudup as Steve Prefontaine and Donald Sutherland as Coach Bill Bowerman Lian names the great cycling flick Breaking Away and The Cutting Edge, a skating rom-com that does the sport proud.

A good cow-dog is worth it's weight in gold and every cowboy and rancher that has had one will tell you about it's many great characteristics.  Bull Durham, on the other hand, was not a good cow-dog.  He was willing, he tried hard, but his attention span was a bit short for long cattle drives.  He causde a lot of laughs, some anguished moans and got some strong scoldings.  But he was fun!

Where on earth can you get Shaquille O'Neal, Jim Palmer, Danny Tartabull, Bob Costas, Deion Sanders, Gary Payton, Barry Bonds, Mike Piazza, Tommy Lasorda, Don Mattingly, Scottie Pippen, Dan Marino, Barry Larkin, and the 1996 Miami Dolphins in the same room? An Arliss table read of course! This long-lasting cameo-loaded HBO original series is the brainchild of star Robert Wuhl who you'll recognize from Tim Burton's Batman and Bull Durham. After a horrendous and “total bullshit” book he read by a future president he was inspired to write a series using the made up stories but swapping in the world of sports management. Come join us in our quest to name every sports star of the 90s and pick apart a fascinating 1996 time capsule.

Episode 397: The Crew's putting the rose in the front while watching Ron Shelton's Bull Durham. This 80's baseball film is more interested in its characters than the actual outcome of any of the games. And the script is so good no one cares… it's funny and 80's sexy.

Filmmaker Ron Shelton discusses how his experience as a minor league baseball player inspired him to make one of the most authentic sports films of all time. Star Kevin Costner was an early believer in the film and helped secure a studio deal against all odds, while the biggest casting challenge was solved by Susan Sarandon herself with a bold move that convinced the studio heads she was the perfect choice.

Baseball fans are in for a treat this week. I had the pleasure of interviewing Baltimore Orioles Hall of Famer Mike Bordick, who shared stories about his experiences playing in the Major League for 14 years, lessons he took from the game, and thoughts on the role of sports in young people's lives. As a true lover of baseball, I was in heaven talking to Mike, who is very down-to-earth and charitable. Having never been drafted, Mike signed a minor league contract in 1986 before being called up to the Oakland Athletics in 1990. He signed with the O's in 1996 where he played for six seasons. He also played single seasons for the Mets and the Blue Jays. Mike has two World Series rings playing for the Mets and A's, but still calls Baltimore, where three of his six kids were born and his family still lives, home. Mike is very humble about his career and his success, which he considers a combination of hard work, luck, and circumstance. He also gives back in a big way. An ambassador for The Baseball Warehouse, he gives lessons and clinics to players and coaches. Mike is also chairman of League of Dreams, a Maryland nonprofit dedicated to providing special needs children and adults with the opportunity to play baseball and softball. "When I see a kid, you just never know what's in there, under that skin and heart," he said. On July 16, Mike will be at the Maryland School for the Blind, volunteering his time. If you want to help him out, learn more about Mike, or have him speak to your group, you can reach out to him at ⁠leagueofdreams.org⁠, ⁠thebaseballwarehouse.com⁠, and ⁠mikebordick14.com⁠. Meantime, tune into this week's Chiseled to hear Mike discuss his love of trash talk, how teammates recapped their games in the clubhouse, and why Bull Durham is his favorite movie. You will also hear from his biggest fan, his dog, Emmy, who shares some of the vocals in this week's podcast.

* Thursday was "We In/We Out" day on the show. There were a couple questions we didn't get to because of time, including this one from Tommy: Which decision has Marcus Freeman made that you were the most “We in” for and which one of his decisions has had you the most “We out” on? * Here's another one from peruvian Irish: Clemson, Florida State and North Carolina are still in the ACC this time next year (June 6, 2025), which results in the ACC still being a functioning football league and ND still having the special arrangement with the ACC. At least in the short term. WE IN OR OUT on that? * We also discuss how TV markets impact the decisions of schools shuffling conferences.  * Fill-in the blank...It's BLANK that the College Football Playoff quarterfinals will be played on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. The Gator Bowl will be played on Jan. 2nd, the Serve Pro First Responder's Bowl and Duke's Mayo Bowl on Jan. 3rd and the Bahamas Bowl and the Holiday Bowl after that. * Notre Dame baseball coach Shawn Stiffler has made a change in his coaching staff after a disappointing second season. Hitting coach Logan Robbins will not be back. We share thoughts on that move.  * Charles Barkley says Tom Brady gave him a watch a while back and he's been offered $250,000 to sell it, but Barkley says there is no amount of money he would sell the watch for. Do you have anything you would not sell for any price? * Thoughts on Jerry McGuire, Major League, Bull Durham, and For Love of the Game.

This is the first of three episodes inspired by the incredible time we had at Fated Mates Live in Brooklyn. During the event (which was so so fun we love every single one of you who came!), we asked guests Nikki Payne, Kate Clayborn and Lauren Billings of Christina Lauren to choose an interstitial topic they would like us to tackle on the show. Lauren chose a great one: Exceptions to our rules, meaning…tropes we don't care for that are done really really well. So! This one is for everyone who's ever asked Jen for Secret Baby or Virgin Heroes and anyone who's ever asked Sarah for Friends to Lovers or Spies. We talk about the books that make us go…not that…but maybe that? We also want to thank the following publishers and authors for their incredible generosity in making sure that almost every attendee of the Live went home with a romance novel. We are so lucky to share Romancelandia with you: Avon Books, Ballantine Books, Blue Box Press, Dell, Grand Central/Forever, Gallery Books, Lauren Blakely, LJ Evans, Pippa Grant, Ana Huang, Parker S.

Christina Lauren's newest book, The Paradise Problem, is out May 14th. Preorder it now, and check out their tour schedule to go see them (they're even more terrific in person) when they're near you!Solar eclipses are very cool, and Jen really should have gone home…. as it turns out, 95% is not anything like 100%! If you have the chance, you should go get in that path of totality. Jen's brother Erik was at his office rooftop in downtown Cleveland and saw people getting married, and also took a very cool video at totality. New York earthquake twitter was pretty funny, too.
