Podcasts about league of their own

It's "Plaaaaaay ball!" as NostalgiaCast steps up to the plate for a home run discussion of A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN, directed by Penny Marshall and starring Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, and Madonna. Phoenix Clouden, good friend and co-host of the Curtain To Curtain podcast, helps Jonny and Darin wind back the clock to a time where men went off to war and women were tasked to keep America's favorite pasttime alive. Also batted around: a history of the AAGPBL and a roster of Phoenix-Jonny-Darin's favorite lines and performances in the film.  

The Second Part in our Symbols of America Trilogy Geena Davis can do no wrong as the greatest catcher to ever play the game of baseball and Tom Hanks is scratching his nuts which leaves Lori Petty to pick on. Forgive us, Tank Girl, we just love A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN so much we can't help but join the pile on. Enjoy!

Grab some peanuts or Cracker Jacks and join Aaron & Rob as they kick of season 7 of the podcast with more "Four Seasons of Film Fun!"  For this year's Spring entry, they round the bases on the 1992 period sports dramedy A League Of Their Own, directed by Penny Marshall and starring Geena Davis, Tom Hanks, Madonna, Lori Petty, Rosie O'Donnell, Jon Lovitz, and Bill Pullman. Based around true events, the film is a charmingly bittersweet look at women taking on a more active role with society during WWII, and in many ways, being able to make choices on their own for the first time. 

Japan emerges as a major player among world powers as their ambassadors helped finalize the postwar treaties and create a new international body meant to stop large-scale wars before they began: The League of Nations.

Since its inception, baseball has always had a place for female athletes. In fact, colleges and universities had women's teams as far back as the 1860's. But at some point, women were shuffled into softball and opportunities to play hardball disappeared. Until now. Associate Professor of sports leadership and management at Miami University Callie Batts Maddox joins The Excerpt to talk about the launch of the Women's Pro Baseball League next year and what it will mean for women and girls who are passionate for the sport.Let us know what you think of this episode by sending an email to podcasts@usatoday.com.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Guest: Toronto Star columnist Dave Feschuck Between the professional hockey leagues, a new professional soccer league and the new franchise in the professional basketball league, women's sports is flourishing in Toronto. Girls sports too — especially hockey, where enrolment of young girls is single-handedly driving growth in the sport. Today's girls, at the elite level, face future prospects their grandmothers could only have dreamed of, but that also means they face a choice: should they continue to play on teams with boys, in leagues dominated by boys? Or should they take advantage of the many girls leagues Ontario has to offer. Dave Feschuk and Kerry Gillespie recently wrote about that issue for the Star, and Feschuk joins host Edward Keenan (coach of a girls hockey team) to discuss the factors involved in making that choice, including where the strongest competition is, the potential value of playing with body contact, the social dimensions of the sport, and the avenues that exist to national or college teams. PLUS: Special guest Irene Keenan, the host's 16-year-old daughter, talks about her own experience playing alongside boys and in all-girls environments as both a hockey and baseball player. This episode was produced by Julia De Laurentiis Johnston, Ed Keenan and Paulo Marques.

Thanks to the success of the beloved Comedy Central series, Broad City, Abbi Jacobson is widely known as a comedic force in film and television. But, as of late, she's busy uniting her comedy skillset with more dramatic performance opportunities, and the power of her ability to do both is undeniable. After soaring in the canceled-too-soon Prime Video series, A League of Their Own, Jacobson joins the ensemble of yet another brilliant comedy and drama combo, Netflix's No Good Deed.At the center of Liz Feldman's (Dead to Me) latest for the streamer, we find Lisa Kudrow and Ray Romano as Lydia and Paul Morgan, a couple gearing up to sell their gorgeous 1920s Spanish-style Los Feliz villa. The appeal of the property sparks a bidding war, a war Jacobson's Leslie finds herself right smack in the middle of. Leslie and her wife Sarah, played by Poppy Liu, are ready to do just about anything to snag the house, but then they start to suspect there might be some dark and dangerous secrets tied to the property — secrets that'll test how far they're truly willing to go to get their dream home. As we now come to expect from a Liz Feldman show, No Good Deed is a laugh-out-loud romp that's also brimming with heart and pathos. Jacobson is especially adept at achieving a pitch-perfect blend of the two qualities, further cementing the fact that she's not only a hugely talented comedic actress, but a dramatic star, too. In celebration of No Good Deed's release on Netflix, Jacobson swung by for a Collider Ladies Night chat to revisit her choice to leave the Atlantic Theater Company for the The Upright Citizens Brigade, and how, all these years later, she's finally come to accept that she didn't have to study at an acting conservatory to take on dramatic roles.

In 1943, Philip K. Wrigley (of chewing gum fame!) founded the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL) in order to maintain sport and public morale during World War II, at a time when many eligible young men, including professional sportsmen, were drafted to fight overseas.Whilst A League of Their Own is a mostly fictional account of the players and founders behind the AAGPBL, it still tells a story of the real-life resilience, spirit and tenacity of the young women involved, many of whom had husbands fighting in the war, coming together to provide entertainment and boost the morale of the nation through sport, despite the sexism and misogyny of the era.Penny Marshall's 1992 movie remains my favourite, and dare I say it, the greatest sports movie of all time. A story of determination, sisterly love, sacrifice and friendship within the very real backdrop of World War II, when women could finally prove they were more than just potential housewives and mothers.Geena Davis embodies the 40s starlet as the statuesque, seemingly perfect Dottie Hinson. Tom Hanks, playing against type as alcoholic ex-player-turned-manager Jimmy Dugan delivers most of the movie's iconic lines. Lori Petty as Kit Keller, just wants to step out of her older sister's perfect shadow and Madonna, in probably one of her most beloved screen roles, as "All The Way" Mae Mordabito, with a great on-screen comedic partnership with Rosie O'Donnell's brash Doris Murphy.Even though the real AAGPBL was dismantled in 1954, its legacy lives on in this movie. It encapsulates a time in recent history that not many are still alive to tell the story of. Sadly, Mary Pratt, the last remaining member of that inaugural 1943 Rockford Peaches roster, passed away just before this episode was (originally) released. She lived to 101 and spent her life championing women's sport.These women were inspirational, trail-blazing, legacy-creating and really were in a league of their own.Episode originally released 14th May 2020Mentioned in this episode:From the ArchiveThere's no new episode this week, so I thought you might be interested in revisiting this slightly older, but no less brilliant episode. Just bear in mind, this episode is several years old, it may not sound quite as polished as newer episodes, and new information may have come to light in recent years with regards to the making of this movie (please see above for the original date of release) Please enjoy this time capsule of an episode.

Which classic Tom Hanks movie would you rather re-watch: A League of Their Own or Apollo 13? Normally, the co-hosts of the Born to Love podcast are the best of friends, but this week Ellie Kemper and Scott Eckert take a turn as rivals with Ellie arguing for A League of Their Own and Scott taking up for Apollo 13. Ellie says that A League of Their Own is a delightful ensemble film that offers laughs, tears, and even some American history while Scott points out that Apollo 13 includes both tragedy and triumph and was the role that changed the course of Tom Hanks's career. Which film will Ronald Young Jr. choose to re-watch? His decision settles the debate at the end of the show.   Follow Ellie @elliekemper on Instagram and Scott @mescotteckert on Twitter.   Keep up with Ronald Young Jr. @OhitsBIGRON on X and Instagram.

One other thing goes along with the end of October other than Halloween. That thing is the World Series which is baseball. Baseball and movies have a history. Speaking of history, during World War II, the women's baseball league started. And those women were in A League of Their Own, so let's ask if that movie holds up!

In this Thinking Time episode, Bradley dives into the rare talents of baseball superstar Shohei Ohtani and draws a parallel to the world of business recruiting. Shohei's incredible achievement of entering the exclusive "50-50 Club"—with 50 home runs and 50 stolen bases—serves as a metaphor for finding the elusive "unicorn" employee: someone who excels in both sales and customer service.Bradley breaks down the key areas of business growth using his AAR framework: acquisition, ascension, and retention. He emphasizes the importance of recruiting specialists for each area—such as a "stone-cold killer" salesperson for acquisition and a detailed, customer-focused account manager for retention—rather than trying to find one person who can do it all. He explains why trying to recruit an all-in-one talent, like Ohtani, is as rare as finding a unicorn, and instead advises focusing on building a team with the right personalities for each role.Tune in for actionable insights on how to approach recruiting, retain customers, and scale your business effectively.Thanks to our sponsors...BlueprintOS equips business owners to design and install an operating system that runs like clockwork.
