The 2026 Oscars The 98th Academy Awards are this Sunday. Conan O'Brien returns as host for a second-annual ceremony, and this year's Oscars could break historic records. "Sinners" leads the field with 16 nominations, while "One Battle After Another" has 13. Both films could challenge the record for most Oscars won in a single night, which currently stands at 11. Ryan Coogler, nominated for Sinners, could become the first Black director to win Best Director. Chloé Zhao, nominated for "Hamnet," could become the first woman to win the award twice. Who will take home the biggest awards of the night? And looking back at the past year in film, which movies deserved a little more love than they received? Thursday on the "Sound of Ideas," a panel of local cinephiles will share their thoughts. Guests: - Ygal Kaufman, Multiple Media Journalist, Ideastream Public Media - George Thomas, Staff writer, Akron Beacon Journal - Bilgesu Sisman, Director of Cinematheque, Cleveland Institute of Art - Nat Dinga, Producer/Instructor, Tri-C Film Academy Shuffle Later in the hour, a new installment of "Shuffle." After decades of writing and performing folk songs across the region, Ashley Brooke Toussant found a new source of inspiration: Kids. On this week's installment, Ideastream Public Media's Amanda Rabinowitz talked with Toussant about how elementary students contribute to her songwriting. Guests: - Amanda Rabinowitz, Host and Producer, "Shuffle" and "All Things Considered" - Ashley Brooke Toussant, Singer-songwriter

Even after historic civil rights progress over the last sixty years, there's no denying that certain groups of people still face real, serious, and even systemic discrimination. In pursuit of justice, many well-meaning activists have made identity central to their cause—arguing, for example, that in order to right wrongs, rules and laws must treat people differently, not equally, depending on the groups to which they belong. Whatever you think of the term “wokeness,” this new ideology has spread like wildfire through academia, journalism, entertainment, governments, and corporations, radically changing politics, policy, and our public discourse.   But what if they have missed the mark? What if crusading identitarianism is doing more harm than good? What if it's actually chipping away at some of the bedrock principles of our liberal democracy? If we want honest answers, we have to take these ideas seriously. In this two part series, host Ron Steslow and Yascha Mounk break down his new book, “The Identity Trap: A Story of Ideas and Power in Our Time.”  In this second episode, they discuss how the identity synthesis moved from college classrooms, to Tumblr, to newsrooms and workplaces. They discuss the common “with us or against us” attitudes the identity synthesis produces and the infighting at progressive institutions over identity issues. They discuss the impact that “cancel culture” can have over trust in scientific research and why the identity synthesis isn't compatible with liberal democracy. Segments to look forward to: (01:14) How the identity synthesis moved from college classrooms, to Tumblr, to the workplace (10:40) The “with us or against us attitude” that dominates institutions overtaken by the identity synthesis (16:00) The crippling infighting at progressive institutions over identity issues  (16:50) The identity synthesis and cancel culture  (26:32) How cancel culture erodes trust in research and institutions  (36:21) Why the identity synthesis is incompatible with liberal democracy  (44:00) How to handle backlash  Get the book:  Order a hardcover copy: https://amzn.to/3PKN6pR Get the audiobook: https://amzn.to/3Ps7CKe Get it on Kindle: https://amzn.to/3rpAB9B Follow Ron and Yascha on X (previously Twitter):  https://twitter.com/RonSteslow https://twitter.com/Yascha_Mounk Learn more about your ad choices.

In a world filled with information, knowledge is easy to find—but wisdom is much harder to obtain. Ideas and philosophies often come packaged attractively, appearing thoughtful, progressive, or insightful. Yet appearances can be misleading. Just as a beautifully designed book may contain poor content, teachings that seem appealing can still lead us away from truth. The Bible reminds us that true wisdom has a very specific starting point: “The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom” (Job 28:28). This “fear” is not terror, but reverence—a deep respect for God’s authority, holiness, and truth. It means recognizing that God’s understanding far surpasses our own. From the very beginning, humanity has struggled to distinguish between worldly knowledge and godly wisdom. In the Garden of Eden, the serpent presented deception in an appealing way, making disobedience appear wise and desirable. That same pattern continues today. Sin often looks attractive, and worldly ideas are frequently praised as enlightened or progressive. Yet Scripture consistently points us in another direction. Godly wisdom flows from knowing God and aligning our lives with His Word. It is cultivated through studying Scripture, praying for understanding, and surrounding ourselves with voices that strengthen our faith. Sometimes choosing God’s wisdom may look foolish to the world. Obedience, humility, and holiness are not always celebrated in modern culture. But what appears foolish to the world is often the path of true wisdom before God. The greatest treasure we can pursue is not influence, wealth, or intellectual achievement—it is a heart that reveres God and seeks His truth. When we begin there, our choices, priorities, and understanding start to align with His perfect wisdom. Main Takeaways Knowledge is abundant, but true wisdom comes from God. The fear of the Lord—reverence and obedience—is the beginning of wisdom. Worldly ideas can appear appealing but may lead away from truth. Godly wisdom grows through Scripture, prayer, and faithful community. Obedience to God may seem foolish to the world but reflects true wisdom. Today’s Bible Verse “Where then does wisdom come from? Where does understanding dwell? … And he said to the human race, ‘The fear of the Lord—that is wisdom, and to shun evil is understanding” (Job 28:20, 28, NIV).

What if one day a week could transform your family? In today's busy culture, families rarely slow down long enough to rest, reconnect, and refocus on what matters most. Work, activities, and endless schedules quietly push relationships and spiritual rhythms to the margins. In Episode 285 of The Family Meeting Podcast, Thomas and Lysandra talk about the importance of establishing a weekly Sabbath or family day, a regular rhythm of rest, connection, and spiritual renewal. In this episode, you'll learn: Why God designed the Sabbath as a gift, not a burden. How a weekly family day strengthens relationships and emotional health. The difference between passive rest and intentional renewal. Practical ways to create a meaningful Sabbath rhythm for your family. Ideas for slowing down, reconnecting, and resetting each week. Biblical wisdom about rest, margin, and trust in God. When families never stop moving, they slowly drift apart. But when they intentionally pause, they rediscover what matters most. If you feel like your family life is running too fast, this episode will help you build a weekly rhythm of rest that brings peace, connection, and renewal. Subscribe for weekly conversations on marriage, parenting, and faith. Bonus Resource: Send an email to info@familymeeting.org for our Family Sabbath Planning Guide.

Meet coach Kyle Jones, a master's athlete dedicated to helping other runners achieve their biggest goals, no matter their age. See more and book a free consultation call at microcosm-coaching.com.Every few months, a new training idea goes viral, and suddenly it's everywhere. Zone 2. Cycle syncing. Ketones. Heat suits. Ninety grams of carbs an hour. The science behind most of these things is real. That's not the problem. The problem is that real science is getting stripped of context, flattened into a hot take, and sold to athletes who haven't built the foundation that makes any of it matter.In this episode, Zoë and TJ break down five ideas that are genuinely overhyped, not because they don't work, but because the way they're being applied and marketed almost always skips the part where they actually become useful. They cover the five-zone model and why zone obsession can accidentally produce the worst possible training distribution, the booming female-specific training industry and what the 2025 research actually says about cycle syncing, performance supplements like creatine, sodium bicarb, and ketones and where the hierarchy breaks down, the ninety-gram carb protocol and why it's solving a problem most recreational athletes don't have, and heat training protocols and how fitness alone outperforms heat exposure for the vast majority of athletes.The through line across all five: marginal gains are real, but they sit on top of a foundation. And if the foundation isn't there, no intervention is going to save you. Sleep, consistent training, fueling the work, and getting your brain right, those are the levers worth pulling first.

It's a very interesting time for African agriculture and food, the continent is realising it's potential to help feed the world, money is flowing into infrastructure to unlock this, more and more talent is coming into the space and the realisation that agro ecology or regenerative agriculture is no longer a nice niche with big margins but has the potential to become the predominant way of agriculture is performed. After putting over $20 million to work in East Africa, Ivan Mandela, founder of SHONA Group, has learned the hard way: chasing Western style so called unicorns might not be the right approach for a predominantly agricultural society. So he shifted his approach and started investing in real companies, to help create a functioning main street a functional real economy where unicorns will naturally start to occur. We discuss why Ivan ends up mostly backing female entrepreneurs, his tips for young students and his takes on nutrient density and quality.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

Many organizations assume a polished campaign brochure is one of the first things they must create for a capital campaign. That assumption can slow down the most important work of building a compelling campaign.In this episode of All About Capital Campaigns, Andrea Kihlstedt talks with Sarah Plimpton, Vice President and Chief Happiness Officer at Capital Campaign Pro, about campaign communications and why the traditional campaign brochure is often the wrong place to start. Drawing on conversations with many campaign leaders, Sarah explains why organizations frequently rush to produce glossy materials and how that instinct can interfere with stronger donor engagement.The discussion begins with a common scenario. Boards and campaign committees often want a sophisticated brochure they can show friends and donors. The thinking is simple: a professional-looking document signals credibility and readiness. Andrea and Sarah explain why this approach misses a critical opportunity early in the campaign process. A campaign case for support is not a single document. It is a clear set of ideas that explain why the campaign matters, what it will accomplish, and how the funding will make that vision possible.The early phase of campaign planning should focus on developing those ideas. Andrea describes how organizations benefit when board members, staff leaders, and volunteers participate in shaping the argument for the campaign. When people wrestle with the core questions of purpose, impact, and urgency, their own commitment grows. The process builds understanding and enthusiasm long before the first major donor conversation takes place.Sarah shares why producing a finished brochure too early can limit flexibility. Campaigns unfold over time and plans often evolve. Project costs shift. New opportunities appear. Certain elements gain traction while others fade. Printed materials that lock in a specific version of the campaign can make it harder to adapt as those changes occur.There is also a deeper strategic reason to avoid a polished brochure at the start. Early campaign conversations should invite donors into the thinking behind the campaign. When organizations present a finalized document, the message to donors is that the organization has already solved the problem and simply needs financial support. When donors see draft materials and evolving ideas, they can take part in shaping the effort. That approach encourages donors to act as partners in the work rather than sources of funding.As the campaign progresses, communication strategies shift with each phase. Early stages focus on developing ideas and testing them with lead donors. Later phases introduce broader materials such as campaign websites, videos, or printed pieces that reach a wider community. The underlying case for support remains consistent while the communication tools expand to match a growing audience.Sarah closes the conversation with practical guidance for campaign leaders who are beginning to think about communications. Start with the ideas behind the campaign. Gather board members, volunteers, and staff to clarify why the campaign matters, what impact it will create, and how the fundraising will make that vision possible. When those ideas become clear and widely understood, the rest of the campaign communication process becomes far more effective.For nonprofit leaders preparing for a capital campaign, this conversation offers a practical reframing of campaign communications. Strong campaigns begin with clear ideas and collaborative thinking. The brochure can wait.To see how this philosophy plays out in a feasibility study, be sure to download our free Ultimate Guide to Capital Campaign Feasibility Studies.

Special Note: This episode is not new; it was deleted by the Spotify robots due to the usage of music, but we wanted it to stay in the library because the idea for the episode came from a listener, and we love that. So, here it is - back in the library - new episodes coming soon! ____What happens when you flip one of our favorite questions on its head?In this episode, Todd Rossnagel and co-host Tim Arnold respond to a listener challenge from fan of the show Dave Schwind: instead of picking songs they want Wilco to cover, they imagine which artists should be covering Wilco.From Beck tackling “Sunken Treasure” to Paul McCartney reimagining “Sonny Feeling,” from Dead & Company stretching out on “Kingpin” to Sturgill Simpson turning “Bull Black Nova” into a fuzz-drenched nightmare.We talk about what makes a cover transcendent, why some songs seem built to be reinterpreted, and how Wilco's catalog invites dialogue across genres and generations.As always, it's less about settling debates and more about loving the music, thinking out loud, and continuing the long tradition of shoving Wilco onto friends, family, and anyone willing to listen.Listener ideas welcome. Voice memos encouraged. Got an idea? Email us: shovingwilco@gmail.com

En este episodio de La opinión de Marm reflexiono sobre algo que veo constantemente: cómo muchas veces confundimos conceptos y convertimos ideas en dogmas.Hablamos de consumismo, capitalismo y comunismo, tres palabras que la gente suele mezclar como si significaran lo mismo. ¿Ser capitalista significa tener que consumir sin parar? ¿Ser comunista significa que no puedes tener un iPhone o vivir bien? La realidad es mucho más compleja.También reflexiono sobre cómo en la vida real los sistemas nunca son puros. Dentro de un país capitalista puede haber políticas muy sociales, y dentro de gobiernos de izquierda puede haber dinámicas de mercado. La política real es mucho más híbrida de lo que pensamos.Y llevo esta reflexión también al terreno religioso. Muchas veces se citan frases de la Biblia como si fueran reglas literales para el mundo actual, olvidando que muchos textos se escribieron hace más de 2000 años para contextos muy concretos. Lo mismo ocurre cuando se interpretan de forma rígida las ideas de Karl Marx.Porque quizá el problema no es la ideología, ni la religión, ni los sistemas… sino cuando dejamos de pensar y empezamos a repetir ideas sin adaptarlas al mundo en el que vivimos.Un episodio para reflexionar sobre cómo usamos las ideas, las etiquetas y las creencias en pleno siglo XXI.Si buscas contenido auténtico y variado, ¡estoy en YouTube, Telegram y en las plataformas de podcasting para ti!

The first episode of Skinny Inc. was all about the science behind GLP-1s, and the second episode was about the business, from the pharmaceutical companies who make GLP-1s to the insurance plans that may or may not cover it. Today, we're exploring how the so-called “Ozempic era,” affects people's mental health. First, business owner Maiyhet Burton tells us how using a GLP-1 has helped her body image. Globe health reporter Kelly Grant details how experts are split on the effect of GLP-1s on weight stigma, and psychotherapist Zoë Bisbing explains how the body positive movement helps her clients. Plus, Tigress Osborn, executive director of the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance on why the popularity of GLP-1s shows how far we have to go with anti-fat discrimination, and Ary Mahraj and Emily Donahue from the National Eating Disorder Information Centre tell us how people with eating disorders may be impacted by the constant discussions about weight loss. Finally, Dr. Stephen Glazer, Medical Director for the Bariatric Surgical Program at Humber River Hospital in Toronto on how weight stigma can be internalized.

In today's episode of the Extraordinary Creatives podcast, I'm joined by the inspiring Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg, whose work sits at the intersection of art, ecology, and emerging technologies. Daisy's work explores the politics, value systems, and assumptions that shape how humans relate to the natural world. Her projects range from algorithmically designed gardens created for pollinators, to resurrecting the smell of extinct flowers, and translating living systems into materials such as tapestry and bronze. In our conversation, Daisy shares how working closely with scientists and researchers has refined her relationship to failure. What might be a dead end in scientific research can become, for her, the starting point for an artwork that asks better questions. We dig into Pollinator Pathmaker, shaped by insect vision rather than human taste, and her new public sculpture commission, The Length of a Moment, where the invisible movement of moths becomes permanent form. This episode is an invitation to think differently about how we apply our creativity, who we learn from, and the kinds of worlds our work helps to shape. I am certain you'll be inspired, so please let me know if anything touches you. KEY TAKEAWAYS Making ambitious work is never just about ideas. It's about labour, time, care, and responsibility. About how teams are treated, how boundaries are held, and how ethics show up not as statements, but as daily decisions. When you approach a project as a collaborator who is willing to learn how an organization works, you create the psychological safety needed to pull off truly ambitious, experimental work. Hold the line on your professional boundaries. Clarity is kindness, it's not about being "difficult" - it's being precise. BEST MOMENTS “The flower looks red to us, but a bee can't see red. They can see ultraviolet. So suddenly you realise that the way we think the world looks isn't how it looks at all.” “Her methodologies show us what becomes possible when artists invite in knowledge from academics, technologists, children, and global perspective.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.daisyginsberg.com https://www.instagram.com/daisyginsberg https://pollinator.art HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS redefines profitable SEO as more than just rankings — it is profit multiplied by time. He introduces the concept of a foundational evergreen operating system: being where people are, staying ever-ready, and building connections that compound. The episode covers the SEO quadrant and its four pillars, why your contact database is your most valuable SEO asset, and how first-party data from email lists outperforms second-party data from platforms like LinkedIn, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. Jonathan shares how NewsBreak and Medium drive backlinks and high domain authority, while Dr. Martin highlights the BlackNews.com story — a site built in 1999 on pure HTML that became the top black news site in the world because Google could easily crawl it. Favour performs a live Semrush audit, explains authority scores, and breaks down how commercial-intent articles like "top 10" lists build domain dominance the way Yelp does. The conversation also covers the new FTC rule on fake reviews, why your website must be the cornerstone of all marketing, and how SEO is ultimately about being the person of remembrance.Book SEO Services?

On Sunday, most Canadians lose an hour of sleep as the clocks get turned forward to daylight time. But while most of us have gotten used to the bi-annual time change, our bodies have not. And with a growing number of experts saying the practice messes with our sleep – should Canadians stop messing with the clock? Today, psychology professor Joseph De Koninck is here. He studies sleep at the University of Ottawa, and his recent research looks at how Daylight Savings Time impacts our circadian rhythms, what we can do to minimize the health effects the change has, and why he thinks Canada should consider staying on Standard Time year-round.

One habit that has created some of the most meaningful conversations in our home is something surprisingly simple: family book club. It's not formal or complicated. Sometimes it's just reading a book over a few weeks and sitting down on a Sunday to talk about it for twenty minutes. But those conversations have opened the door to ideas and discussions that might never have happened otherwise. Recently, our family read the classic How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie, and it sparked one of the most practical conversations we've had in a long time. At first glance, the title sounds like it's about influencing people out in the world—at work, at school, or in business. But as we talked about it together, we realized the principle that stood out most actually applies right inside our homes. One of the central ideas from the book is simple: don't criticize, condemn, or complain. Criticism might feel productive in the moment, but it usually puts people on the defensive. When someone feels attacked, their instinct is to justify themselves rather than grow. Encouragement, on the other hand, creates openness. When people feel valued first, they're far more willing to listen and improve. Chris shared a couple recent experiences with our kids' sports that brought this lesson into focus. After a game, his instinct was to point out what they could have done better. The intention was good—he wanted to help them improve—but the criticism didn't land the way he hoped. Instead of helping, it left them discouraged and defensive. The next time, he tried something different and simply told them how much he loved watching them play. What surprised us was that later they came back and asked for feedback themselves. When people feel encouraged first, they become much more open to influence. That conversation led us to a realization we've been thinking about a lot lately: a person to be loved is always more important than a problem to be solved. As parents, it's easy to focus on fixing things—behavior, performance, mistakes. But when the relationship comes first, growth tends to follow naturally. And when we get it wrong (which happens often), modeling repair—apologizing, resetting, and trying again—can be just as powerful as getting it right the first time. For us, the real value of family book club isn't just reading the book—it's the shared experience of learning together. Whether it's through books, videos, or conversations around the dinner table, creating moments where a family learns together can shape the culture of a home in ways that last far beyond the conversation itself.

Send a textHow can a database tracking 20% of all US NICU admissions change the way we practice neonatology? Live from the NEO Conference, Ben and Daphna sit down with Dr. Veeral Tolia to discuss his groundbreaking work with the Pediatrix Clinical Data Warehouse. Dr. Tolia dives into the power of leveraging decades of observational data to supplement randomized trials—from analyzing the 50-fold increase in Precedex usage to studying natural experiments like the vitamin A shortage. The group also looks ahead to the Newborn Express dataset, exploring how socioeconomic metrics like the Child Opportunity Index might help us understand the alarming rise in neonatal vitamin K refusals.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

Moving beyond standard medical textbooks, Dr. Nakhla shares how chronicling nearly 30 years of challenging patient encounters and complex family dynamics can serve as an essential guide for new trainees. The conversation highlights the therapeutic power of narrative medicine for clinicians and the profound impact of non-clinical staff on the family experience.

What's the difference between a concept and a conceit — and why does confusing the two quietly sabotage so many comics? In this episode, Brad and Dave break down one of the most important (and misunderstood) distinctions in storytelling. A concept is the engine that drives your story forward. A conceit is a clever wrapper that might look great… but doesn't go anywhere. If you've ever launched a comic that felt strong at first but ran out of momentum, this conversation will hit home. We talk about: Why constraints actually fuel creativity How to test whether your idea has real staying power The danger of building a comic around a gimmick And how to strengthen your story before you spend months drawing it Today's show: A comic without recurring characters UPDATE: ComicLab accent challenge UPDATE: Amazon Advantage UPDATE: DoubleDogBook.com How to do a sarcastic word balloon Takeaways Character design plays a crucial role in storytelling. Comics can thrive without a central protagonist. Idea-driven comics have historical precedence. Naming a comic can be a challenging but essential task. Feedback is vital in the creative process. Constraints can enhance creativity and focus. Monosyllabic titles are often more memorable. A good title can significantly impact a comic's success. The creative journey involves trial and error. Sharing ideas at smaller levels can reveal what resonates. Avoiding sunk cost fallacy is crucial in decision-making. Amazon Advantage can lead to unexpected losses. Understanding the costs of shipping is essential for profitability. Sarcasm in comics requires careful visual and textual cues. Bold lettering can enhance the impact of sarcasm. Walt Kelly's techniques in lettering were innovative but sometimes excessive. Comic creators should consider the visual presentation of dialogue. A well-crafted word balloon can convey emotion effectively. The legacy of past cartoonists informs current practices.

At a time when the future of Iran is uncertain, we revisit an IDEAS documentary about the history of women's resistance in Iran — women who in 1979 harboured dreams of freedom and democracy. After ousting the Shah, and mere weeks after Ayatollah Khomeini took power, Iranian women marched to show their fury at the revolution. Forty years after their protest, documentary maker Donya Ziaee spoke to three Iranian women who were there, fighting to turn the tide of history. *This episode originally aired on March 8, 2019.

Even after historic civil rights progress over the last sixty years, there's no denying that certain groups of people still face real, serious, and even systemic discrimination. In pursuit of justice, many well-meaning activists have made identity central to their cause—arguing, for example, that in order to right wrongs, rules and laws must treat people differently, not equally, depending on the groups to which they belong. Whatever you think of the term “wokeness,” this new ideology has spread like wildfire through academia, journalism, entertainment, governments, and corporations, radically changing politics, policy, and our public discourse.   But what if they have missed the mark? What if crusading identitarianism is doing more harm than good? What if it's actually chipping away at some of the bedrock principles of our liberal democracy? If we want honest answers, we have to take these ideas seriously. In this two-part series, host Ron Steslow and Yascha Mounk break down his new book, “The Identity Trap: A Story of Ideas and Power in Our Time.” In this first episode, they discuss the rapidly changing meanings of words like “woke” and why Yascha coined the term “identity synthesis” to replace it. They look at the spread of the identity synthesis and how quickly it is changing our politics.  They dive into the intellectual underpinnings of the identity synthesis and why Yascha decided to write the book now. Segments to look forward to: (04:21) Yascha's background  (06:50) Why he decided to write this book  (16:30) Why Yascha uses the term “trap”  (21:40) The philosophical underpinnings of the “Identity Synthesis”  Get the book:  Order a hardcover copy: https://amzn.to/3PKN6pR Get the audiobook: https://amzn.to/3Ps7CKe Get it on Kindle: https://amzn.to/3rpAB9B Follow Ron and Yascha on X (previously Twitter):  https://twitter.com/RonSteslow https://twitter.com/Yascha_Mounk Learn more about your ad choices.

Could Major League Baseball ever put a team in the Dominican Republic? Evan and Tiki react to the electric atmosphere from Team USA vs. the D.R. and debate whether baseball could ever expand internationally to a place that lives and breathes the sport. From stadium size and economic concerns to the massive Dominican fan base and jersey sales potential, the guys explore whether it's crazy… or actually genius. They also throw out another wild expansion idea closer to home: a third New York-area team in New Jersey near MetLife Stadium. Would Mets, Yankees, and Phillies fans pack the place? Plus, the new ball-strike challenge system in Spring Training is already producing fascinating numbers. The guys break down the early success rates, why the Yankees are challenging more than anyone, and why the Mets barely use it at all. And who should really be making those calls on the field? Expansion dreams, strike zone tech, and early Spring Training quirks all in one conversation. ⚾

With a loyal, engaged fanbase and an addiction for pushing boundaries, the show delivers the perfect blend of humor and insight, all while keeping things fun, fresh, and sometimes a little bit illegal. 2024 © 2021 Audacy, Inc.
