She recounts stories from decades of calling Yankees games, highlighting how perseverance and authenticity helped her succeed in an evolving sports media landscape. Waldman will be among those honored as Giants of Broadcasting by the Library of American Broadcasting Foundation at the 2026 Giants of Broadcasting & Electronic Arts luncheon and awards ceremony. The event will be held on Tuesday, November 17th at Gotham Hall in New York City. On this episode of Chachi Loves Everybody, Chachi talks to Suzyn Waldman about: Her early life in Boston and her love for baseball and Broadway How her musical theater background helped her as a broadcaster, and why she changed careers Challenges she faced as a woman in sports broadcasting in the 1980s and 1990s The groundbreaking moment she became the first woman to call a World Series game Her partnership with John Sterling and their impact on Yankees broadcasting Her relationship with Yankees legends George Steinbrenner and Yogi Berra Surviving breast cancer and how the experience shaped her life and career The most memorable moments covering championships, crises, and personal milestones The evolution of sports media and her advice for young women entering the industry And More! ABOUT THIS EPISODE'S GUEST: Award-winning broadcaster Suzyn Waldman this year begins her 40th year either covering or broadcasting the New York Yankees, and her 22nd season as the Yankees’ radio color commentator. Inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 2022, Waldman has spent the last four decades overcoming the obstacles that go along with being a female sports broadcaster, and has been an inspiration and mentor to two generations of girls and women wanting to enter the sports arena. Forty years ago, in 1987, Waldman became the first voice heard on New York’s WFAN-AM — the first all-sports station in the country — creating the job of the radio beat reporter, covering the Yankees and New York Knicks. Her news-breaking reports, exclusive interviews and controversial opinions won her countless journalism awards, including the International Radio Award for Live and Emotional Reporting from the upper deck in Candlestick Park during the San Francisco earthquake. The word “first” precedes the name Suzyn Waldman in every facet of her television and radio career. She was the first woman to work on a nationally televised baseball broadcast (for the Baseball Network) and the first to provide TV play-by-play for a Major League team, broadcasting New York Yankees games for WPIX, MSG Network and WNYW in the mid ‘90s. She is the first woman to host an NBA pre- and post-game show, provided play-by-play for the WNBA on Lifetime TV, and was an analyst for St. John’s basketball and the NIT for MSG and WFAN. She was the first woman to broadcast a World Series, and her scorecard and microphone are among other artifacts of her career in the “Women In Baseball” exhibit at Cooperstown. She has been honored by countless organizations, including the Thurman Munson Foundation, the March of Dimes, the Jimmy Fund of Boston, the Gracie Awards, American Women in Radio and TV, the US Federal Women’s Foundation, and was the first recipient of the Women’s Global Health award from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine at the United Nations for her work speaking with and inspiring fellow breast cancer survivors. She has been named one of the “100 Most Influential Women in Radio” 12 straight years by Radio Ink Magazine, and in 2016, was inducted, with her former longtime radio partner, John Sterling, into the New York State Broadcasters Hall of Fame. On January 25, 2025, at the 100th New York Baseball Writers’ Dinner, Waldman and Sterling received one of baseball’s highest honors, the William J. Slocum/Jack Lang Award for “Long & Meritorious Service.” A native Bostonian with a B.S. in economics and an honorary doctorate of Journalism from Boston’s prestigious Simmons University, Waldman spent 15 years on the Broadway musical stage and performed in countless night clubs around the world. She is proudest of two things in her long and varied career: her two years in theater starring opposite the late Richard Kiley in Man of La Mancha, and her bringing together George Steinbrenner and Yogi Berra after 14 years of not speaking. She lives in Westchester County with her German Shepard, Margo. ABOUT THE PODCAST: Chachi Loves Everybody is brought to you by Benztown and hosted by the President of Benztown, Dave “Chachi” Denes.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an naoú lá déag de mhí Mheán Fómhair. Is mise Niall Ó Cuileagáin.Tá imní léirithe ag na comhlachtaí móra sa tionscal intleachta saorga mar gheall ar an gcumhacht atá ag an dteicneolaíocht anois. Scríobh an príomhfheidhmeannach de chuid Anthropic, Dario Amodei, aiste inar thug sé rabhadh don domhan faoindainséar a bhaineann leis an dteicneolaíocht. Scríobh sé go bhfuil orainn an luas forbartha a mhoilliú san earnáil ar eagla go rachadh an teicneolaíocht as smacht agus deireadh a chur leis an gcine daonna. D'fhógair Google an tseachtain seo guréirigh lena bhota comhrá, Gemini, haiceáil a dhéanamh ar chomlachtaí eile as a stuaim féin. Beidh Sam Altman, príomhfheidhmeannach de chuid OpenAI, ag tabhairtráiteas do cheannairí domhanda sa Náisiúin Aontaothe faoi na bagairtí abhaineann le hIntleacht Shaorga. Tá na comhlachtaí intleachta saorga ag iarraidh go mbeidh níos mó rialachán san earnáil chun na bagairtí seo a sheachaint, ach de réir cúpla saineolaí, tá siad ag déanamh áibhéil ar an gcontúirt agus ag iarraidh smacht iomlán a choimeád ar an earnáil.Ionsaíodh an Teachta Dála ó Chiarraí Theas, Michael Healy-Rae an tseachtain seo agus é ag tiomáint trí chathair Bhaile Átha Cliath. Tharla an t-ionsaí ar Shráid Chorcaí Dé Céadaoin nuair a bhí an Teachta Dála sáinnithe sa trácht. Tugadh fear darb ainmAnthony Foley os comhair na cúirte Dé hAoine agus cúisíodh é; ní dúirt sé aon rud nuair a cuireadh an chúis ina leith. Tuigtear gur thug an fear buille ar Healy-Rae tríd an bhfuinneog agus gur gearradh liopa Healy-Rae go dona agus go raibh air seachtngreim a fháil. Cháin polaitheoirí ó gach páirtípolaitaíochta agus tráchtairí sna meáin an t-ionsaí go géar. Dúirt ceannaire Phairtí an Lucht Oibre, Ivana Bacik, gur ionsaí ar an ndaonlathas a bhí ann.Tharraing an t-amhránaí Ed Sheeran conspóid mhór an tseachtain seo nuair a chaith sé an t-aoicheoltóir Macklemore amach as a chamchuairt i Meiriceá mar gheall ar an óráid a thug sé inar léirigh sé tacaíocht do mhuintir na Palaistíne. MhaíghMacklemore gur díbríodh é tar éis don bhilliúnaí Robert Kraft, a bhfuil seilbh aige ar cúpla staid sa chamchuairt, a mhíshásamh a léiriú do Sheeran agus bagairt a dhéanamh an chamchuairt iomlán a chur ar ceal. Chuir Sheeran teachtaireachtamach inar dhiúltaigh sé taobh a ghlacadh agus tar éis sin, tharraing gach aoicheoltóir eile amach as an gcamchuairt, Éireannaigh ina measc, an t-amhránaí Aaron Rowe agus an grúpa ceoil traidisiúnta, Beoga. D'fhógair an stáisiún raidió Éireannach Classic Hits nach mbeidh siad ag craoladh Sheeran ar an stáisiún níos mó agus gheall Macklemore go dtabharfaidh sé an méid airgid a fuair sé ó na ceolchoirmeacha a dhein sé sa chamchuairt go dtí seo go carthanais Phalaistíneacha.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

In this special 9-week series, listeners will hear from three different groups—GenX paired with Millennials, Gen Z, and Boomers with a mix of the Silent Generation. Their conversations cover a variety of topics including technology, unity in the Church, racism, and parenting. Grouped by similar ages, these 12 individuals share their unique views, opinions, and convictions based on their generational upbringing and views of the world. Ranging from ages 16 to 81, we're covering 5 different generations with 16 different guests.In this episode, our Millennials and Gen-X group discusses polarity in the church, optimism (or lack of) for unity, whether society is less racist today compared to generations before, whether they consider themselves patriotic, and if they see the USA as a Christian nation. Bios of our Millennial and Gen-X contributors: Amy AldermanAmy Alderman is a Mortgage Loan Closer at the best credit union in the state. She has been married to Dick Alderman for 20 years, and together they have two daughters, Abigail and Audrey. The Aldermans have been part of the Seacoast family for over 15 years. In her free time, Amy loves building puzzles — especially on Saturdays with her mom. She is deeply passionate about Biblical literacy and has been leading a women's Bible study since 2009.David SchirduanDavid Schirduan is a software engineer by day and a game designer by night, with an emotionally needy dog named Ori. He has attended Seacoast for over five years. In his free time, David reads sci-fi and fantasy novels in between rounds of video games. He also runs a small publishing company with eight books and counting. David once lived on a ship in Africa for over a year, and at age 35 made the bold decision to purchase his first-ever pair of sneakers — prior to that, it was strictly flip flops or dress shoes. He is believed to be the only David Schirduan on the planet. The others died under mysterious circumstances.Sean ScapellatoSean Scapellato is a former English and writing teacher who now practices law full-time — his former students having gotten old enough to make that transition feel right. He has been married to his extraordinary wife, Sara, for 33 years and has been attending Seacoast for over 25 years. They have two great kids, Nick and Maggie, ensuring the Scapellato name lives on. An avid reader and writer, Sean hopes one day to write thrillers. He is finally over his obsession with being a fusion drummer, and everyone in his life is grateful.Brittany SparkleBrittany Sparkle has called Charleston home for over 20 years. After majoring in Theatre at College of Charleston, she launched a radio career that has taken her to the airwaves of 95SX and Classic Hits 96.9, where she currently works as a DJ. She loves all things entertainment — music, acting, writing, and especially being on the air. On weekends, you'll find Sparkle at concerts and live music events with friends, volunteering at Seacoast Church, and spending time with family. When she's not working, she's traveling and hunting down the next "you won't believe this" moment.Seacoast Podcast is now on InstagramBe a Patron of the podcast We have a YouTube Channel for videos of all episodes since Jan. 2024.
