Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5 CHICAGO -- Two showdowns loom for the Cardinals in the coming weeks. First, they face the division-leading Chicago Cubs for the first time with a four-game series at Busch Stadium.. Second, they face themselves at the trade deadline. Hall of Fame broadcaster and fixture on Cardinals' radio Mike Claiborne joins the Best Podcast in Baseball for his annual appearance around Flag Day. Claiborne has long argued that Flag Day is the first day to check the standings are start making plans on what kind of team the Cardinals are going to be. This year's time might take a little longer, but Claiborne tells baseball writer and BPIB host Derrick Goold what he already knows about the 2025 'transition' club. Claiborne and Goold also discuss what the Cardinal can aim to get in return at the trade deadline if the upcoming series against the Cubs point them in the direction of selling. That is if they can fight their tendency for straddling the fence -- never all-in and hesitant to drop out. The podcast was recorded on the South Side of Chicago at Rate Field before another postponed game due to rain forced the Cardinals into their sixth doubleheader of the season. In its 13th season as one of the most-popular and longest-running Cardinals-centric podcasts, the Best Podcast in Baseball is sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis. BPIB is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.

When Lori Lyons became a stepmom, she knew exactly what she didn't want: the tension, jealousy, and divided loyalty she had grown up with as a child of divorce. Instead, she envisioned something radical for the time—a family that included everyone, even her husband's ex-wife. In this heart-opening episode of A Fresh Story, Lori invites us into her Louisiana home and into a decades-long story of blended family done beautifully right. A Hall of Fame sports writer, adoptive mom, caretaker, and storyteller, Lori's life is a patchwork of intentional relationships, deep empathy, and the kind of resilience you can only earn the hard way.From taking off her engagement ring before a pickup at her now-stepkids' house to asking her husband's ex-wife to be her adopted daughter's godmother, Lori's story is a masterclass in humility, generosity, and healing generational hurt. She shares the tender details—how Cheryl became “Nanny,” how they tag-team holidays and emergencies, and how they grieved, celebrated, and raised children together as a team. Her voice is strong and steady, grounded in years of lived wisdom, but it's the softness underneath—the mother who wanted her daughter to feel included, the woman who chose peace over pride—that stays with you.This is more than a story about co-parenting—it's a story about what becomes possible when we abandon old rules about exes, stepfamilies, and women's roles, and build new families from the heart. Lori reminds us that the people who show up for us—who wash dishes in our kitchens after the Christmas parade, who split the mother-of-the-groom dance without blinking—those are our people. This episode will make you cry, laugh, and maybe even believe that a peaceful, joyful blended family isn't just possible—it's worth fighting for.

Send us a textWhat happens when a professional sports executive takes off the GM hat and steps into his most important role as a father? Craig Waibel, General Manager of the Seattle Sounders FC, brings us behind the scenes of his parenting journey with refreshing honesty and hard-earned wisdom.Waibel, a former MLS player with four championship titles, shares a powerful framework for raising children that focuses on authenticity over achievement. "When it stops being fun, we're done," he explains about his daughter's volleyball journey, highlighting his commitment to nurturing joy ahead of competitive success. This philosophy might surprise some, coming from someone who's thrived at the highest levels of professional sports.The conversation reveals intimate moments of parental growth—from learning to step back when his teenage daughter needs space to process challenges, to allowing her to see his vulnerabilities. Waibel recounts transformative lessons from his own upbringing, including when his parents confronted his self-deprecating humor with the firm directive: "That's not how we treat ourselves." These formative experiences shaped his approach to both leadership and fatherhood.Particularly moving is Waibel's emphasis on integrity and communication. The open dialogue he's cultivated with his 15-year-old daughter didn't happen by accident but through years of intentional parenting. He describes the gratitude he feels when she shares her experiences and emotions freely—a connection many parents struggle to maintain during the teenage years.Whether you're raising future athletes, managing a team, or simply trying to become a better leader at home, Waibel's insights transcend sports. His perspective on removing fear to unlock potential applies equally to parenting and professional settings. How might your relationships transform if you approached them with more humility, vulnerability, and genuine curiosity?Please don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts!

After trekking through the Far East (Japan), Ken LaVicka is back into FAU mode just in time for another Panthers Stanley Cup championship! Huge congratulations to FAU Basketball fan, Boca Raton resident & Panthers captain Aleksander Barkov on laying another building block in the Cats dynasty foundation. From a college football standpoint, after weeks of College Football Playoff format speculation, Ken has had enough. The sports FBS power brokers don't care about the Group of 6 and will never care about them, so it's time to act. Ken gives his proposal for a G6 College Football Playoff format. It's time to play for something other than a random end-of-year, transfer portal-tarnished bowl game. Also, while it's a good thing the College Football Hall of Fame slightly altered its overall winning percentage requirement to allow Mike Leach entry into the institution, it does nothing to help the man whose absence completely invalidates the Hall of Fame, Howard Schnellenberger. If Miami and Louisville and just going to ignore this injustice, then it's time for FAU to act.

On December 31, 1972, Roberto Clemente -- the Hall of Fame right fielder whose grace on the diamond was matched only by his humanitarian spirit -- boarded a cargo plane bound for Nicaragua, carrying relief supplies for victims of a devastating earthquake. The plane crashed shortly after takeoff from Puerto Rico, and Clemente, just 38 years old, was never found. A 15-time All-Star and the first Latin American player to reach 3,000 hits, Clemente broke barriers both on and off the field. His tragic death turned him into more than just a baseball legend -- it made him a symbol of selflessness, courage, and the unshakable will to serve others, even at the ultimate cost.

Jim is joined by NBA historian Keith Black Trudeau to break down the hall of fame candidacy of former NBA shooting guard Richard "Rip" Hamilton. First, Jim and Keith discuss Hamilton's elite ability to move without the ball, as well as his smooth mid-range game (10:10). Next, they cover his performance in the 2004 NBA Finals and Eastern Conference Finals, how he compares to Reggie Miller, and where he ranks among the 15 best shooting guards of the 2000s (20:30). Finally, Jim and Keith try to understand Hamilton's alarmingly poor advanced metrics (53:57), before making a final call on whether or not Hamilton deserves a place in the Basketball Hall of Fame (58:51).

The Ryan Express was rolling along in June of 1975 as Nolan Ryan had just thrown the 4th no-hitter of his career while pitching for the California Angels. The flame throwing righty was doing things nobody had ever seen before, and would continue to do until his bionic arm finally gave out while with the Rangers in 1993. 27 seasons, 5,714 strikeouts, and 7 no-hitters later, Ryan finally was put out to pasture where he continued to be a success in whatever he did… and people noticed. One such person was Leo Ullman who two years after Ryan threw the final pitch of his Hall-of-Fame career purchased 11 Nolan Ryan baseball cards at a $1 a piece… and so began the largest collection of Nolan Ryan memorabilia that has been assembled. Saddles, cleats, bats, balls, if it had Nolan Ryan's name attached to it, Ullman purchased it, eventually amassing close to 15,000 different items in a collection that now resides at Stockton University in New Jersey. Ullman wanted the entire collection to stay input, so instead of it going to the Hall of Fame where they might have picked over the items in the collection, he kept it intact at the campus in Galloway Township. A lawyer by trade, Ullman is also an author, having written a book about his collection titled, ‘Nolan Ryan, The Largest And Most Unique Collection Of All Things Nolan Ryan, The Greatest Power Pitcher Of All Time.” But that's not the only book Mr. Ullman wrote. ‘796 Days: Hiding as a child in occupied Amsterdam during WWII and then coming to America' is the story of Leo as a 3-year old when he was taken in by a couple and hidden in their attic for over 2 1/2 years during the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam. The Dutch resistance put his parents in a different house and it wasn't until the war was over that young Leo was reunited with his birthparents… who survived without knowing if their little Leo had as well. Leo comes on the Past Our Prime podcast and tells us the similarities between his life's story and that of Anne Frank's. He would later go on to become a Director and Chairman of the Anne Frank Center USA  and tells us that his war-parents brought him to stay with them knowing they could be executed if the Jewish boy was found for one reason… “It was the right thing to do.”  His parents would emigrate to the States and settle in Brooklyn and 8-year old Leo would fall in love with Jackie Robinson and the Dodgers. A few years later the team would break Leo's heart and leave for Los Angeles, but Leo's love for baseball never waned. At some point, his allegiance turned to the Mets and years later, when Mets owner Steve Cohen heard of Leo's story, he invited him to throw out the first pitch at a game…  Leo recalls how, much like a former Mets pitcher by the name of Nolan Ryan, he bounced the pitch in the dirt much to his chagrin. But he refused to let his time in that attic define him. Instead, he joyfully tells us how he spent time with the Mets in a fantasy camp years ago and still keeps in touch with his fellow Mets buddies… At age 86, Leo has gone from the nightmare of the Holocaust to a Mets Dream Week… and in between, put together the largest collection of Nolan Ryan collectibles of all-time. It's been quite the life for Leo and he tells us all about it on the Past Our Prime podcast… Give us a listen and drop us a review wherever you get your podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices.

Read transcriptBelieve it or not, ninja enthusiasts, this week on Play Comics we're kunai-diving into the pixelated shinobi wasteland that is Naruto: Ninja Council for the Game Boy Advance – because apparently someone at Tomy thought the best way to honor everyone's favorite orange-clad ramen addict was to trap him in a handheld prison with combat mechanics more frustrating than trying to explain the Chunin Exams to your grandmother. Released in 2003, this side-scrolling “adventure” promised to let players master the art of ninjutsu while battling through iconic locations from the Hidden Leaf Village, but what it actually delivered was a gaming experience so repetitive that even Naruto's shadow clone jutsu would get bored of itself. Joining us for this digital journey through the Land of Mediocre Adaptations is Luke Herr from D'ohMance Dawn – a man who's witnessed more anime-to-game train wrecks than a rejected Akatsuki recruitment video. Together, we'll explore how this GBA “masterpiece” managed to spawn not one, not two, but THREE sequels despite having the gameplay depth of a puddle in the desert and graphics that make early Dragon Ball Z filler episodes look like Studio Ghibli productions. So grab your headband and prepare for an episode that's more entertaining than actually grinding through the same three enemy types for hours on end – which, let's face it, isn't exactly setting the bar at Hokage level. Will this portable ninja adventure redeem itself through sheer nostalgic chakra, or will it vanish faster than Sasuke after a family reunion? Tune in to discover if this manga adaptation belongs in the Hall of Fame… or should be sealed away forever like the Nine-Tailed Fox! Learn such things as: Is it dangerous to have pretty eyes? Is all manga and anime just a giant metaphor for the horrible nature of man? Does a game being fun make it a good intro to the franchise? And so much more! You can find Luke over on D'OhMance Dawn, Exiled, Multiversal Q, and RPG Pals Club. Or catch him on BlueSky @koltreg or his Patreon, found under Luke Herr.
