Podcast appearances and mentions of Darryl Strawberry

Darryl Strawberry gets personal about the brotherhood, belief and never-quit mentality that made the 1986 New York Mets World Series champions.Speaking with Harlan Friedman at the team's 40th-anniversary celebration, Strawberry explains why the '86 Mets were far more than the “bad boys” portrayed in the headlines. When they stepped onto the field, they were united, focused and convinced they were never out of a game.Strawberry also reflects on the enduring legacy of Gary Carter, helping his brother and teammate Lenny Dykstra rebuild his life, and why everyone deserves the opportunity to reinvent themselves.The Mets legend then discusses his book Another Life and the work he now does in prisons, schools, hospitals, churches and communities across the country—using his story to inspire people struggling through life's darkest moments.“We did it, and nobody can ever take that away from us.”Watch this powerful conversation about baseball, brotherhood, redemption and discovering a greater purpose beyond the game.Subscribe to Sole Free with Harlan Friedman for more conversations at the intersection of sports, sneakers and culture.#DarrylStrawberry #1986Mets #NewYorkMets #LGM #SoleFreeEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: Harlan Friedman and Donna DrakePRODUCER/EDITOR: Robin C.

Brian discusses the disturbing new Netflix docuseries on the death of pastor's wife Mika Miller and the alleged abuse she suffered, pushing back hard against the narrative that her husband's horrific actions represent normative evangelical teaching on marriage. He shares a Nine Marks article on how pastors and church families can protect their kids from growing bitter toward the church even after painful experiences, drawing on his own story of being let go from the church he planted. Brian highlights a viral moment of poor sportsmanship backfiring when a Texas high school football team refused to shake hands before a game and lost 38-0 at halftime, and digs into a Detroit Public Schools program paying students up to $1,000 a year just for attendance amid a chronic absenteeism crisis. He shares a moving Christianity Today profile of former MLB star Daryl Strawberry, whose journey from addiction and prison to prison ministry now brings hope to society's most forgotten, plus a Gospel Coalition reflection on the surprising peace found in intentionally not knowing answers by blocking search engines, and closes with a Charles Stanley devotional on the practice of listening for God's voice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What happens when you've achieved everything the world says should make you happy, and you're still empty? In this episode of The Speakeasy Podcast, I sit down with baseball legend and ordained minister, Darryl Strawberry, for a powerful conversation about surrender, grace, obedience, and the transformation that happens when Jesus becomes Lord over every part of your life. Darryl is a four-time World Series champion and eight-time All-Star, but today, he says the most important part of his story isn't what happened on the baseball field. It's what happened when a man who seemingly had everything finally surrendered his heart to Jesus.

Baseball gave Darryl Strawberry fame, championships, and fortune—but none of it could heal the pain he carried deep inside. In one of the most powerful and transparent conversations you'll hear this year, the eight-time All-Star and World Series champion joins Erick Stakelbeck to share the incredible story behind his new book, Another Life: Discovering the Healing Power of Purpose on My Long Journey from Player to Preacher. From growing up in a violent home in South Central Los Angeles to becoming one of baseball's biggest superstars, Darryl reveals the hidden struggles that nearly destroyed him—and how Jesus Christ gave him a completely new life. Today, Darryl Strawberry says his greatest purpose isn't hitting home runs—it's helping people discover the hope, healing, and freedom that only Christ can bring. His remarkable testimony is proof that no one is beyond God's grace, no matter how broken their past may seem. Fame couldn't save him. Money couldn't satisfy him. But one encounter with Jesus Christ changed everything. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Zach sits down with baseball legend Darryl Strawberry and his wife Tracy for a conversation that has almost nothing to do with baseball. Both are on their third marriage. Both are in long term recovery, Darryl more than two decades sober, Tracy twenty five years clean. And both point to the same turning point in their story: faith. Zach wants to know what actually sits underneath a phrase couples say so easily, Christ is at the center of our marriage, especially since, as he points out, scripture itself says very little about marriage directly.What follows is unusually candid. Darryl and Tracy talk about the difference between humility and humiliation, and why fighting dirty means trying to shame your partner instead of solving the problem with them. Tracy describes watching Darryl in active addiction and reaching the point where loving him didn't mean rescuing him anymore, a moment she names plainly: he was too painful to love, not unworthy of it. Darryl traces his own turning point back further than the drugs, to the rejection of his father and the bitterness he carried underneath the addiction itself. And Tracy explains how she knew his recovery was real, not because he said the right things, but because his actions stayed consistent over time. They also get into raising nine kids across a blended family, the moment Tracy told Darryl to take his baseball uniform off and figure out who he was as a man, and what it actually looks like to stay married to someone you see only a few days a month.The reason to press play is that this isn't a highlight reel of two people who fixed their lives. It's a working theory of how repair actually happens: naming the wound before you can heal it, choosing consistency over grand gestures, and refusing to let ego, which Darryl defines simply as Easing God Out, decide who wins the argument. Anyone piecing a marriage back together after addiction, infidelity, or just years of distance will find something to hold onto here.Key TakeawaysHumility and humiliation aren't the same thing. Humility invites you both to the same level to find a solution. Humiliation is fighting dirty, trying to wound your partner instead of working with them.Trust isn't rebuilt with an apology. It's rebuilt through consistency over time, doing the same right thing again and again until it becomes believable.Unhealed wounds from your past don't stay in your past. Left alone, they bleed into your marriage and erode it from the inside.Recovery isn't only about quitting a substance. It's about dealing with whatever is underneath it, for Darryl that meant confronting the bitterness and rejection wound from his father.Loving someone in active addiction can reach a point where stepping back isn't giving up on them, it's refusing to keep enabling the behavior that's killing them.Blended families take a village. The Strawberrys say it takes nineteen people, across both sides of two divorces, to make their family work.You don't have to make love complicated. A home cooked meal, a card, or a phone call can matter more than a big gesture.Adult children still carry the wounds of a divorce they never chose. Being a great listener matters more than being right.Guest InfoDarryl Strawberry, former Major League Baseball player who spent much of his career with the New York Mets. author of the book Another Life. In long term recovery from addiction, more than two decades sober at the time of this conversation.Tracy Strawberry, Darryl's wife, a pastor who works at the Dream Center in St. Louis, a recovery home for men and women.

We start with a little baseball nostalgia and somehow ends with us debating whether a man would trade a live rattlesnake for chicken tenders—which, honestly, is a pretty accurate summary of the intellectual journey you've signed up for with this funny podcast.The crew kicks things off after learning Daryl Strawberry was spotted in the stands shaking hands with an old teammate, which naturally gets everybody talking baseball, Strawberry's career, and his St. Louis-area connection. From there, we smoothly transition—as only a professional broadcasting operation like ours can—into one of the most stressful decisions a parent can make: where the heck is your kid going to college?Rizz is getting ready to hit the road for Fayetteville and is making a strong sales pitch for the University of Arkansas. Moon brings his own college-tour experience to the table, including some serious love for Tuscaloosa and the University of Alabama campus. Rafe weighs in on Fayetteville, Madison, Laramie and more as the guys break down a ranking of the best college towns in America.Ann Arbor takes the top spot, but that doesn't stop the crew from debating Arizona State, Virginia, Florida, Florida State, Wisconsin, Berkeley, Purdue, Wyoming and Illinois. There are beautiful campuses, brutal winters, business schools, Walmart money and the eternal parental dream of convincing your kid that the school YOU like is obviously the school THEY should like. Parenting!Then we arrive in Florida.And things immediately get stupid.It's time for Fake News or Florida, the game where contestants have to decide whether a ridiculous headline actually happened in Florida or whether the show made it up. The problem is that writing fake Florida headlines is nearly impossible because actual Florida keeps producing material that sounds like it was written by three raccoons sharing a laptop.Was a woman dressed as a hot dog arrested after covering a neighbor's car in toilet paper? Did police arrest Chuck E. Cheese while he was still in costume? Did someone throw an alligator through a drive-thru window? Did a guy in a Batman onesie detain a burglary suspect? Could a 300-pound feral hog interrupt somebody doing a crossword puzzle? And, most importantly, how much faith should anyone place in Moon as a lifeline?The answers become increasingly concerning.We also encounter a runaway kangaroo, a rainbow-painted manatee statue, a man hiding a gun under silicone breasts, a burglar with a live ferret stuffed down his pants, hundreds of mysteriously delivered shower curtains and the possibility of a rattlesnake-for-chicken-tenders barter economy.Moon spends much of the game carefully analyzing every detail, constructing thoughtful arguments and then discovering that Florida does not recognize the laws of logic. It's like watching Sherlock Holmes investigate a gas-station parking lot at 2 a.m.This funny podcast packs baseball talk, college-town arguments, listener chaos, bizarre headlines, St. Louis humor and enough Florida news to make you wonder whether the state should simply start issuing press releases titled, “You're Not Going To Believe This One Either.”It's another episode of The Rizzuto Show where celebrity and sports talk collide with weird news, sarcastic humor and the kind of daily comedy that probably shouldn't count as educational—but technically you will learn several things.Mostly about ferrets.Come for Daryl Strawberry and the college debate. Stay for the moment everyone has to seriously consider whether someone tried to exchange a live rattlesnake for chicken tenders.That's the kind of journalism this funny podcast is brave enough to tackle.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Meeting Don Mattingly, First Pitches, Daryl Strawberry was apparently in the stands, college students are heading back to campus, parents everywhere are questioning their financial decisions, and Florida has once again decided that normal behavior is merely a suggestion. Welcome to another episode of The Rizzuto Show, the comedy podcast where one innocent conversation can make several deeply unnecessary turns before anyone has a chance to stop it.The show kicks off with Daryl Strawberry after video surfaces of the former MLB star crossing paths with an old teammate. That naturally gets Rizz thinking about what would happen if Strawberry suddenly appeared in front of him — because apparently meeting one baseball hero wasn't enough emotional trauma for one week.From there, we move into college season. Parents are loading up cars, kids are heading back to school, and the crew starts debating the best college towns in America. Fayetteville gets plenty of love as Rizz talks about an upcoming Arkansas visit, while Moon makes a strong case for Tuscaloosa and the conversation wanders through Bloomington, Ann Arbor, Tempe, Madison, Charlottesville, Gainesville, Tallahassee, Laramie and Urbana-Champaign.There are legitimate discussions about business schools, campus life and tuition. There are also judgments based on weather, stadiums, sandwiches and whether your kid will feel like college is just “13th grade.” In other words, this is not an accredited educational consulting service. Please plan accordingly.Then Florida arrives.And Florida does not arrive quietly.It's time for Fake News of Florida, where callers have to decide whether increasingly ridiculous headlines actually happened in the Sunshine State or were created specifically to destroy their remaining faith in humanity.Could a Chuck E. Cheese mascot really get arrested inside the arcade? Could a guy in a Batman onesie detain a burglary suspect? Could a 300-pound feral hog crash through somebody's glass door? What about a runaway kangaroo? A guy hiding a gun under silicone breasts? A pet store burglar putting a live ferret down his pants?These are the questions our ancestors dreamed we would someday have the technology to answer.Moon serves as a lifeline, which occasionally works beautifully and occasionally involves him building an entire forensic case around a headline only to discover that Florida simply does not respect conventional logic. The more reasonable his explanation sounds, the more concerned everyone should probably become.Things eventually escalate to mystery shower curtains, a Key West parrot allegedly trapped in a margarita machine and perhaps the most Florida sentence ever assembled: a Pensacola man trying to trade a live rattlesnake for a box of chicken tenders. At some point you stop asking whether the headlines are plausible and start accepting that the state of Florida is basically running its own comedy podcast without microphones.It's baseball nostalgia, college-parent anxiety, caller chaos, weird news and enough Florida nonsense to make you suspicious of every headline you read for the rest of the day. Just another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show, where we take the important stories of the day and immediately make them significantly less important.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode, we welcome Darryl Strawberry to the show. He is a former Major League Baseball superstar. He was drafted #1 overall by the NY Mets in the 1980 MLB Draft and is a four-time World Series Champion. He also is an eight-time All-Star, 1983 Rookie of the Year, and a two-time Silver Slugger. His number 18 jersey was retired by the New York Mets, and he is in the NY Mets Hall of Fame. He is now a traveling evangelist and author. In this interview, we discuss how he went from a poor kid in South Central Los Angeles to the MLB #1 overall draft pick, how baseball has moved from a “feel” game to a metrics game, his Mt. Rushmore of MLB position players and pitchers, the pitcher he feared the most when he was in the Majors, his perspective of Bill Buckner's error in the 1986 World Series, how he's actually thankful for all of the off-the-field issues and sicknesses that he had, how he became a traveling evangelist, his latest book “Another Life - Discovering the Healing Power of Purpose on My Long Journey from Player to Preacher”, and much more.

Darryl Strawberry is known worldwide as one of baseball's greatest sluggers, a four‑time World Series champion and eight‑time All‑Star. But behind the fame, he struggled with addiction beginning at age 14, when he first smoked marijuana and drank alcohol. As he explains, “most of the time it's because of the deep pain that's going on on the inside” — and substances became his escape.His career was impacted by drinking, drugs, and amphetamines, eventually slowing him down and threatening everything he had built. The turning point came through his wife Tracy, who refused to give up on him. “You don't have to tolerate the behavior, but you still have to love people,” Darryl says, crediting her compassion and persistence for helping him surrender and begin recovery.Now more than 22 years sober, Darryl and Tracy lead a national ministry focused on faith, healing, and hope. They speak in churches, schools, prisons, and treatment centers, encouraging people to avoid the path of addiction and embrace recovery. He emphasizes that sobriety requires more than abstinence — it demands a spiritual awakening and a change in behavior.Darryl's new book, Another Life, shares his journey from “a mess to a message,” showing how recovery can lead to transformation and purpose. He continues to inspire audiences by reminding them that no matter how far they've fallen, freedom and hope are possible.Resources:Book: Another Life (Amazon)Ministry: Strawberry MinistriesSpeaking: Fellowship of Christian Athletes, national recovery events
