Wedding night goth girl! Batman! Catwoman! A desperate craving for Jurassic Park! Can this really be marital bliss? ABOUT EPISODE 18 This episode is all about long term relationships: the real-life joys and sorrows of the give-and-take required to stay together day after day, and year after year. Sticking with anything for 1, 5, or 50 years takes a lot of hard work and focused attention. But, long term commitments also offer us unique opportunities for personal and shared growth as we navigate life with our partners. So, whether you're in a long term partnership or not, we hope that this episode makes you laugh, makes you think, and inspires you to embrace the ongoing work of building lasting, meaningful relationships with those you love!

We're back, babies! Welcome to Season Two of Friday Candy the Podcast! This episode is full of freaks, (mis)matched lovers, Joy Reports, the Spice Girls, and SO many boyz (also, we reveal the truth about Ashlyn's many enemies)! 'Match My Freak' is all about how very different people can find one another, decide to stick together, and then negotiate the ups and downs of life with one another. As you will hear in the stories ahead, partnering up with another person is never a small task - it's a strange, mysterious, and often hilarious cocktail of human psychology, animal attraction, quirks of personality, and good old dumb luck. But however people come together, one thing is for sure - we're all ‘freaks' in one way or another. Friday Candy was created and hosted by Ashlyn and Austin Sailsbury. That's Us!

Life's big questions! The wheel of destiny! Apricots! Peaches! Figs! A self-care nightmare! Baby #3! This is our 'sexiest' episode yet! . Episode 10 of Friday Candy The Podcast is all about making decisions: good decisions, bad decisions, even ‘non-decision decisions.' Every day of our lives is full of decisions - from the minor to the major. This constant decision making can be exhilarating, sure, but it can also be exhausting. So, rather than giving into decision fatigue, we thought, let's have some fun with all this deciding! In the end, Austin and I found that this was a very fun and fascinating topic to discuss…but, of course, you will have to decide for yourself if you agree. . And that's the end of season one of Friday Candy the Podcast! Thank you so much for listening, it has been such a joy to create these first ten episodes for you.

Time travel! Camel rides! Sand surfing! A Viking yurt and a very jazzy jer repert! Today's show is all about ‘the stuff of life'…the stuff we buy, the stuff we collect, the stuff we keep and the stuff we give away. But even more than that, this episode is about our ever-changing relationship to our stuff - from the clothes we wear to the homes we live in. So, whether you think of yourself as a minimalist or a maximalist (or somewhere in between) we hope that today's show is a good reminder to focus on the things that truly matter the most in life. Those things that aren't even things at all. On today's show, we share our tips for living a minimal-ish lifestyle. And we also talk a lot about ladders (surprisingly).

Plaaaaaaaay baaaaaaall!  Baseball season has started here in America and what better way to kick-off the season than by enjoying this episode of the podcast! Author John Rosengren stops by the show to discuss his latest book: "Classic Baseball: Timeless Tales, Immortal Moments." Joe and John cover just a few of the stories covered in John's latest classic. Come listen to this episode, pick up the book, and get ready for an upcoming summer filled with Baseball! Enjoy! About John Rosengren I once interviewed a woman shot in the head by hijackers and left for dead on the tarmac.  I raced my bike against Greg LeMond in South Africa (and beat him). I played a tennis match against the world's top-ranked wheelchair tennis player (and lost). I channeled a 330-pound, Samoan, retired NFL nose tackle who is gay (Esera Tuaolo, for his memoir). I played softball on snowshoes in the summertime (wood chips spread across the infield). I rapped a base hit off former Twins pitcher Rick Aguilera. I listened to a nurse tell me the story of prying a shotgun shell out of Ernest Hemingway's hand when he was intent upon killing himself. I profiled a woman who is a Roman Catholic priest. I attended a powwow with LGBTQ Native Americans. I interviewed a mortician in the room where she embalmed my father. I interviewed a 15-year-old boy in his hospital room after he tried to stop a school shooter. All in a few days' work, stretching back to 1981, when I began freelancing as a senior in high school, same time I got clean and sober. My work has won a couple dozen awards and been nominated for a National Magazine Award and a Pulitzer Prize (but didn't win either of those). Along the way, I have lived in Boise, Boston, Florence, London, Paris, and St. Paul. Today I'm at home in my native Minneapolis with my wife Maria, our two children, and a golden retriever named Maya. About Classic Baseball A collection of iconic, unbelievable, and intimate stories from baseball history that celebrate the enduring impact of the national pastime. Baseball—rooted as it is in tradition and nostalgia—lends itself to the retelling of its timeless tales. So it is with the stories in Classic Baseball, a collection of articles written by award-winning journalist John Rosengren and originally published by Sports Illustrated, The New Yorker, Sports on Earth, VICE Sports, and other magazines. These are stories about the game's legends—Ty Cobb, Christy Mathewson, Josh Gibson, Bob Feller, Frank Robinson, Sandy Koufax, Kirby Puckett—and its lesser-knowns with extraordinary stories of their own. They cover some of the game's most famous moments, like Hank Aaron hitting No. 715, and some you've never heard of, like the time the Ku Klux Klan played a game against an all-Black team. Whether it be the story of John Roseboro forgiving Juan Marichal for clubbing him in the head with a bat, Elston Howard breaking down the Yankees' systemic racism to integrate America's team, or the national pastime played on snowshoes during July in a remote Wisconsin town, these are stories meant to be read and read again for their poignancy, their humor, and their celebration of baseball.   Thanks to Empire Toys for this episode of the podcast!

October 14, 1965 - Game 7 1965 World Series. Sandy Koufax throws a 3 hit shutout on 2 days rest. After walking 2 in the 1st he tells catcher John Roseboro my arm is sore I can’t throw the curve. We’ll just blow them away..   Dodger manager Walt Alston was torn between starting Drysdale on normal rest or Koufax with only two days' rest. He decided on the left-handed Koufax, figuring if needed he would use the right-handed Drysdale in relief, then go back to his left-handed relief ace Ron Perranoski. Koufax told announcer Vin Scullyin a post-game interview that he and Drysdale had come to the ballpark not knowing which would be on the mound. According to Koufax, the manager announced the decision purely in strategic terms regarding lefty vs. righty, saying he worded his announcement without even using the pitchers' names, saying only that he thought he'd "like to start the left-hander." The Twins went with Kaat, also starting on two days' rest. Both managers had relief pitchers warming up as their starters began the game. Koufax had trouble throwing his curveball for strikes but escaped a couple of early jams, including one in the third inning when Zoilo Versailles stole second base with one out, but was called back after batter Joe Nossek was ruled out for interference. Koufax effectively gave up on his curveball and pitched the late innings almost exclusively with fastballs, still baffling the hard-hitting Twins. In the fourth inning, Dodger left fielder Lou Johnson told Koufax that he would get him the only run he would need. Johnson promptly hit one off the left-field foul pole to give the Dodgers a 1–0 lead. Ron Fairly followed with a double and scored on a Wes Parker single. The two runs came on three consecutive pitches. Knowing Kaat was on short rest, manager Mele pulled him quickly. Al Worthington, Johnny Klippstein, Jim Merritt, and Jim Perry combined to shut out the Dodgers for the rest of the game. The Twins threatened again in the fifth inning when they had runners on first and second with only one out. Versailles hit a hard grounder down the third base line that appeared to be going for a double. This could have ended Koufax's day as Drysdale was warming up in the bullpen. But third baseman Jim Gilliam (who was often replaced late in games for defensive reasons) made a diving, backhanded stop and stepped on third for a force. Koufax bore down and got the third out. He ended up tossing a three-hit shutout, striking out ten in one of the greatest Game 7 pitching performances ever   Game 7 Broadcast -  https://youtu.be/XLFV6L3HteM Koufax Interview -  https://youtu.be/f3N-vvg-9Kw https://youtu.be/pBMMs6BTWIk Drysdale Interview -  https://youtu.be/vhcR_2urSmI   More Koufax - 

August 8th, 1965.. Ron Fairly looks back when Juan Marichal clubbed John Roseboro with a bat in a base brawl on today's date in baseball history See omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy information.

John Roseboro is someone I have never been able to stop thinking about. For nine & half years, I've been a fan of John's music - from his high school band Stray Kites to his powerful new solo music. I've tried my best to keep in touch with him & today we finally engage in a curious discussion about his journey. We discuss his high school buzz, living in a cave, moving to Southern California, starting a family and his two new singles.

Greatest Game in Giants History.. On Aug 22 1965, Marty looks back at the Juan Marichal and John Roseboro brawl 

HARDBALL PODCAST Episode 12 Johnny Roseboro You know the name..you know "the brawl"..but John Roseboro's career and life was so much more. We talked months before his passing in 2002.. and we hit it all. Campy/Sandy..and of course his once complicated relationship with Juan Marachial..and how John's rethinking of that incident helped push Juan into his warranted place in Cooperstown. 6X All Star..Multi Gold Glove Winner..and 3X World Series Winner John "Johnny" Junior Roseboro

11-16-2019 Passed Ball Show. John starts out by talking about the ugly situation that concluded the Browns/ Steelers game this past week. How it embarrassed the league, but most importantly, how it took the fans away from their sanctuary as a sports fan. Violence exists in sports, but this was an over the top decision that makes a mockery of the very game that Miles Garrett was representing, John makes the comparison to the 1965 incident between Juan Marichal and John Roseboro of the Giants and Dodgers, respectively, and suggests a similar reconciliation between the two parties of Garrett and Mason Rudolph. John also brings up the Ron Artest "Malace at the Palace" incident, Marty McSorley and other hockey player stick incidents and asks where this most recent act of violence ranks amongst the rest of sports history. John then reiterates the facts that support a MLB manager having little or no impact on a current team winning or losing and brings to mind the example of Gabe Kapler. There is a cult following that assumes he is not a good manager, or at least was not during his two years with the Philadelphia Phillies. John debunks that silly idea and takes a shot of the credibility of those that believe a manager impacts the game like they used to. The ignorance of those that believe this really has to be acknowledged and the blasphemy that continues to be thrown out regarding this issue needs to involve some accountability. At the very least, those who feel this way have to be looked at as if they do not know very much about baseball. John declares he is now a Gabe Kapler fan. Next, John talks a little about the Houston Astros controversy and what would be the best penalty (assuming they are guilty of using surveillance equipment to steal signs). It would be an embarrassment to the sport if MLB takes away their World Series Championship of 2017. If current MLB managers AJ Hinch, Alex Cora, and Carlos Beltran are suspended for part of the 2019 season, they should be replaced with the computer equipment that does their jobs for them anyway. John finishes off by talking about suspended coaches Sean Payton (2012) and Leo Durocher (1947).

Today we are covering August 19 – 25, we are going to be talking about – Jimmie Foxx pitching career, Gooden early excellence, Bill Veek grand stand moment, Yogi Berra and the harmonica, Juan Marichal and John Roseboro fight and the professional pinch hitter Matt Stairs.   If you love the history of the game, and relate all your stories in life to baseball, and you tend to get goose bumps, grim and even water your eyes a bit when Ray Kinsela asks his Dad to play catch. You are truly at the right place. This podcast is part of thisdayinbaseball.com, if you love baseball history, no matter who you search for you are going to find great nuggets of information.   TRIVIA: What owner once bought a jackass as a team mascot and named it after himself? He also had a nickname :The Wizard of ODD. On August 19, 1945 – In game two of a doubleheader against the Cincinnati Reds, 37-year-old slugger Jimmie Foxx makes his first major league start, pitching the first seven innings for the Philadelphia Phillies at Shide Park. He leaves with a 4 – 1 lead, and Andy Karl saves Foxx’s only decision, a 6 – 2 final.  Here is his stat line his ERA in 10 appearances is 1.52, ERA+ was 243, batters only hit .171 with a .479 OPS and of the 76 batters that faced Foxx not one of them was able to get an extra base hit. The only black mark was 14 Base on Balls vs 10 K’s. Foxx also known as “The Beast” had always wanted to pitch, he was a star hurler in High School. However it was the WAR and the end of his career that really gave him a chance. After the 1944 seasons he appeared in only 15 games, but the War gave him another chance as he signed with the Phillies for a final go round. The 3 Time MVP was not fairing any better so they last place Phillies gave him a shot on the mound, and Foxx the future Hall of Famer. Foxx made the most of it to finish his spectacular career.      On August 20, 1964 — During a bus ride after a Chicago White Sox sweep the Yankee’s 4 straight, Mickey Mantle misinformed his teammate Phil Linz who had been playing Mary Had a Little Lamb on his harmonica that their manager Yogi Berra had asked for the harmonica to be played louder, when in fact he asked him to stop, a confrontation occurs on the back of the team bus between the skipper, and the utility player. As told Mel Stottlemyre a rookie at the time - “Yogi told Phil he was going to shove the harmonica up his ass if he kept playing — plus a few other things. I don't know if it scared Phil but he tossed the harmonica toward Yogi, who slapped it out of the air and whacked it off Joe Pepitone's knee. Linz apologized the next day and he was fined $200, With a bus full of reports the event was well well-publicized Linz apologized the next day and he was fined $200. Some say that seeing that side of Berra fired up the third-place team, , to a successful pennant run, but may have reinforced the perception Berra had lost control of the team with so much dissension on the club, leading to his dismissal after Game 7 of the World Series. Yogi had many Yogisms, here is one I will think about allot, “If you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll wind up somewhere else”   On August 21, 2010 — Matt Stairs sets the career record for pinch-hit home runs when he goes deep off Ernesto Frieri in the eighth inning of a 6-5 loss in Milwaukee. The two-run shot over the Miller Park right field fence, his twenty-first round-tripper coming off the bench, moves the premier pinch-hitter ahead of Cliff Johnson.   Matt stairs is 1 of only 5 Canadian born players to hit 200 homeruns, and he has the record for a position player playing for 12 different teams and 13 franchises. He played for the Expos and Nationals. His pinch-hit home run in the eighth inning of Game 4 in the 2008 National League Championship Series off the Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Jonathan Broxton was called "one of the most memorable home runs in Phillies history" On April 12, 2009, Stairs' game-winning home run against the Colorado Rockies was the last home run called by legendary broadcaster Harry Kalas, who died unexpectedly less than 24 hours later. Matt Stairs is a great what if – he didn’t get regular at bats until age 29, if he had been in the right situation at age 22-23 both  Bill James and Joe Posnanski feel he could have been Hall of Fame material.   On August 22, 1965, After Juan Marichal had knocked down Maury Wills and Ron Fairly in the top of the third, John Roseboro signaled for Sandy Koufax to retaliate in the bottom of the inning. It didn’t work. “Koufax was constitutionally incapable of throwing at anyone’s head,” Roseboro wrote in his 1978 autobiography, “so I decided to take matters into my own hands.” Roseboro was throwing the ball too close to his head while returning throws to Koufax. Marichal complains to the umpire about the throws and then the two square off, that is when MArichal hits Roseboro over the head with a bat. Marichal was suspended for eight games and fined $1,750. Roseboro filed a lawsuit, asking for $110,000 in damages, but settled for about $7,000. He reportedly needed 14 stitches to close the wound on his head. It truly was one of the ugliest events in baseball history. For many the story ends there – In a SF Chronicle article Barbra Roseboro his widow said, In restaurants, over the phone with clients, at the hospital where he lay dying, John Roseboro couldn’t escape the questions. “People would come up to us at dinner and say, ‘Please tell us about the fight with Marichal,’” the catcher’s widow said recently from her office in Beverly Hills. “He would always accept his responsibility for that incident. He’d say: ‘I provoked it. I threw that ball too close to Juan’s ear.’” It was however Roseboro who helped Marichal transition into Dodger blue in 1975, they made peace at an old timers game in the 1970’s and Roseboro wife’s PR firm helped Marichal cross the line to get into Cooperstown when they felt the legacy of the fight was hurting him after missing for a second time. Roseboro’s widow speaks almost as fondly of Marichal. “After my husband passed away, Juan would call to check up on me and my daughter every six months or so,” she said. It is a great story how two people with differences and an ugly incident can come together to make peace.   On August 23, 1982, Gaylord Perry of the Seattle Mariners is caught putting a foreign substance on the ball. Long suspected of throwing a “spitball,” Perry is ejected from a game for the first and only time in his career. From Peter Gammons: Against the Red Sox. In the seventh inning, down 1-0 with the bases loaded and two out and facing Rick Miller, who was his nemesis, he threw a pitch that dropped measurably. Umpire Dave Phillips, one of the most respected umpires of the era, jumped out from behind home plate and ejected Gaylord. There was some argument from Perry and M’s manager Rene Lachemann, but it sure seemed obvious to all of us in the building that there was a very mysterious flight pattern to the pitch. But the reason Perry was ejected was a warning he got in the top of the fourth inning. And that was, well, divine intervention. Red Sox outfielder Reid Nichols asked Phillips to check the ball. Phillips did, found some substance, and issued the warning. Nichols said, “in the bottom of the third inning I was standing at my position in left field and a voice came to me reminding of the scripture that ‘no weapon formed against thee shall prosper.’ So when I got up to the plate in the next inning, I asked the umpire to check the ball.”   On August 24, 1951 — In another of Bill Veeck’s legendary public relations stunts, “Fans Managers’ Night,” the Browns defeat the Athletics, 5 – 3. The Browns’ coaches hold up placards for 1115 fans, who vote “yes” or “no” on the options given them. Manager Zack Taylor sits in a box behind the dugout with two fans who monitor the voting. Adding to the festivities is Max Patkin, the clown prince of baseball, who coaches at first base for several innings. Sherm Lollar voted in to start behind the plate instead of Matt Batts, has three hits including a homer, and Hank Arft, also voted in, knocks home two. Gus Zernial’s 28th home run accounts for all the A’s runs. When the stunt was announced on August 15, A’s GM Art Ehlers bitterly denounced it as “farcical.”   So, just how did the managers do? In his autobiography, Veeck -- As in Wreck, the Browns owner wrote of the Grandstand Managers' performance, "Never has a game been called better." And, though Veeck was certainly prone to hyperbole, he had a point: The managers correctly decided to leave Garver in the game, and they even voted to play back for a double play with runners on first and third with one out in the first inning -- while Athletics second baseman Pete Suter obliged by grounding into a double play. The Grandstand Managers only made one glaring mistake in the game. After tying the game with a single in the first inning, the group instructed Arft to steal second base with two outs. Unfortunately, the Athletics apparently saw the move coming, and Arft was thrown out easily to end the inning.   How many fans wish they had Veeck as the owner? In 2003 during the playoff game when the A’s were playing the Red Sox, I sat in front of a guy who yelled for Grady Little to put in Trot Nixon for 6 innings. When he finally did, Nixon hit a game winning 2 run homerun in the 11th.     My Dad used to say the sadest words ever spoken are oh what could have been stories - On August 25, 1985 — At the age of 20 years, 9 months, 9 days, Dwight Gooden becomes the youngest 20-game winner ever when the Mets beat San Diego at Shea Stadium, 9-3. Doc is 27 days younger than former Indian hurler Bob Feller, who accomplished the feat with Cleveland in 1939. He will win the NL Cy Young Award and the pitching Triple Crown, compiling a 24–4 record and a league-leading 1.53 ERA, 268 strikeouts, and 16 complete games in 1985. In 86 he will the Mets win the 1986 World Series. Sadly, Gooden remained an effective pitcher in subsequent years, but he will only once have an era under 3, and never win more than 13 games in a season after age 26. His career was ultimately derailed by cocaine and alcohol addiction. I hope you enjoyed the daily rewind and before we give you the trivia answer here is a word from our sponsor . . .   Trivia Answer – TRIVIA: What owner once bought a jackass as a team mascot and named it after himself? He also had a nickname :The Wizard of ODD. He also had a mechanical Rabbit to bring baseballs to umpires, and once tried to get Vida Blue to change his name to “True.” Charlie O.

All-Star outfielder-turned broadcaster-turned author, Ron Fairly, joins the boys to talk about Ichiro Suzuki's sudden retirement, Edgar Martinez's chances at the Hall of Fame, coaching Reggie Jackson, playing alongside Dodgers greats Duke Snider and Carl Furillo and the time John Roseboro saved Juan Marichal's life.

The fight between San Francisco Giants Hall of Fame pitcher Juan Marichal and Los Angeles Dodgers catcher John Roseboro was baseball at its worst. What happened in the coming years would be forgiveness at its best. John Rosengren, author of "The Fight of their Lives", discusses a story that goes well beyond what took place on August 22, 1965 at Candlestick Park.

“John Rosengren extraordinarily depicts how two men long since retired taught the world a valuable lesson -- that it is okay to forgive.” -Andre Dawson, member of the Baseball Hall of Fame The moment is immortalized by an iconic photo: Juan Marichal’s bat poised to strike John Roseboro’s head. But that moment is merely a flashpoint in an extraordinary story about fierce baseball competition and culture, an era of great conflict and change, and two men who were determined to turn an ugly incident from their past into a beautiful friendship. One Sunday in August 1965, when baseball’s bitter rivals, the Giants and Dodgers, vied for the pennant, the national pastime reflected the tensions in society and nearly sullied two men forever.  Marichal, a Dominican anxious about his family’s safety during the civil war back home, and Roseboro, a black man living in South Central L.A. shaken by the Watts riots, attacked one another during a fight -- uncharacteristic of either man -- that linked the two forever and haunted both. In The Fight of Their Lives, award-winning author John Rosengren explores the American culture of the time.  Through interviews with Roseboro’s surviving family and Marichal himself, contemporary and remembered accounts of teammates like Sandy Koufax and Willie Mays, and dogged research, Rosengren unpacks a story that transcends the game.  Listen in... John Rosengren is the award-winning author of eight books, including Hank Greenberg: The Hero of Heroes.  His articles have appeared in more than 100 publications, ranging from Reader’s Digest to Sports Illustrated to the Utne Reader.

As sports stories go, the legendary rivalry between the Giants and Dodgers, is one of the best and most enduring. Yet it’s a rivalry that has had it’s had its dark and ugly moments.  One of the those moments came a couple of years ago as Giants fan Bryan Stow was attacked and beaten in the parking lot at Dodger Stadium. A sad incident that perhaps reflects the mean spiritedness of our times.Another ugly incident happened back in 1965. It had a better outcome.  One where the rivals, Juan Marichal of the SF Giants and John Roseboro of the Dodgers, would turn to  violence. A violence that reflected the tensions of the time.  Yet it would also turn to forgiveness and redemption.That’s the story that John Rosengren tell in The Fight of Their Lives: How Juan Marichal and John Roseboro Turned Baseball's Ugliest Brawl into a Story of Forgiveness and RedemptionMy conversation with John Rosengren:
