Podcasts about three swings

What do you do when you disagree with someone?  Whether that is about a project at work or a political point of view with a family member?  Do you avoid the conversation completely, or argue your point until you win?Many people avoid conversations all the time because they don't want to create conflict.  Or, they boldly and recklessly speak their mind using the protection of "just being honest."    Leaders don't do either.  They run towards the conflict they see, and disarm it using a combination of empathy and skillful technique.  They have productive conversations.In this episode, Nate examines one of the most challenging conversation in sports right now -- the inclusion of transgender athletes -- to prove the point that true leaders can hold productive conversations, with anyone, about anything.  Specifically, he dives into the situation around Lia Thomas, the first transgender athlete to win a Division I NCAA National Championship.  This landmark moment has some people celebrating advancements in inclusion, while others are crying foul in the spirit of fairness.  Tune in to learn the Ask-Share-Ask framework, which will enable you to have a productive conversation even when the topic is as challenging as this one.  Step up to the plate for this week's challenge, "Three Swings," and you'll be prepared to have any conversation ... with anyone ... about anything.Support the show

New episode up now! We explore the tropical ‘80s world of Magnum, P.I. with the third season episode “Of Sound Mind”. We discuss the surprising goofiness of Magnum as a character as well as his specific personality choices, realize he's essentially living the teenage dream, dunk on the wooden playacting of his friends, wonder at the Odd Couple-ness of Magnum and Higgins, and come to the conclusion that the “villain plot” in this episode made absolutely no sense. We also, of course, really get into the sexiness of Thomas Magnum and what contributes to his essential charm. (Hint. It's mainly the shorts). Katy learns she unfortunately budgets like the P.I., Carrie explains the logic in her dating pool age range, Maddy does not want this to become a sports podcast, and Mack realizes he is as old as the friends from Friends. We lament costume contest losses, discuss bangin' Halloween parties and why theater kids go so hard, learn what a suit of armor should actually sound like, and share unnerving security guard job facts. You'll also hear about being traumatized by a sexy Pinocchio as well as learn what makes a great ringtone! Enjoy! Show Notes/Links: Main source used was http://magnum-mania.com/ The host of the Three Swings podcast now goes by RB, which was not the case at the time of recording. And although the podcast has just ended it has some great archived content so check it out. The artist the butler was talking about is most probably Margaret Keane.

Many odd things have happened during the pandemic, but in the sports world nothing seems as strange as our nation becoming enthralled with 20 year old Michael Jordan highlights. The collective nation tuned into The Last Dance on ESPN, even knowing exactly how it ends. J.A. Adande, the beloved sportswriter and Director of Sports Journalism at Northwestern University, talks to Jensen about being featured in the docuseries and how he's currently helping a new generation of sportswriters navigate in a world where arenas, locker rooms and sports in general are off-limits. Then, the two dive deeper into The Last Dance to expand on what it was like for Adande to cover Jordan during those years, whether Jordan has ever been happy, and why it's possible he's very angry about Lebron rebooting Space Jam. Plus, in the latest installment of FANDEMIC, Jensen checks in with comedian and Three Swings podcast host Rhea Butcher about how to deal with missing baseball when it's your favorite thing in the world.

This week, the thing Jordan and Bill - who??? - love about baseball is first base chats!We also do MORE trade deadline check-in - because that's basically the only thing going on - we posit a theory about why there's such a big gap between Mike Minor's Baseball Reference WAR and his Fangraphs WAR, and we throw out a simple, harmless idea - maybe there should be ties in baseball? - that will surely see us burnt at the stake as witches. Oh also, "we" this week is Jordan and Bill Porter. Bill is our guest host for the week and an elite baseball knower. He also has a sexy deep voice.Our other baseball podcasts of the week is Three Swings, hosted by Rhea Butcher, one of our favorite comedians! It's funny and feministy and smarty and generally great.

Rhea returns this week with a trophy case full of Three Swings Awards, another round of playoff predictions, and an interview with photographer and baseball superfan A.W. Klass!It's a packed episode, with consideration of the Brewers' promising underdog performance, the MLB's problematic disparities in dealing with substance abuse and domestic abuse, the Cubs asking-for-trouble attitude in putting the infamous billy goat on their World Series ring, and the virtues of playing the small ball instead of a home run game.Plus, photographer and baseball superfan A.W. Klass joins Rhea for a conversation on relating queer identity to sports fandom, the choice between creating a radical community or radically infiltrating extant communities (or both), and purple silk yarmulkes that may or may not be heirlooms from Prince.THIS EPISODE SPONSORED BY TOMBOYXtomboyx.com/baseball + Promo Code "Baseball" - 15% OFFGET TICKETS TO RHEA'S LIVE SHOWS HERE:https://rheabutcher.com/livedatesCONNECT W/ THREE SWINGS ON TWITTER & INSTAGRAM // AND SEND YOUR ROSIN BAG QUESTIONS:https://twitter.com/threeswingspodhttps://www.instagram.com/threeswingspodPLEASE SUBSCRIBE/RATE US on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, Stitcher, or wherever you get your podcasts.THREE SWINGS IS A FOREVER DOG PODCASThttp://foreverdogproductions.com/fdpn/podcasts/three-swings
