From the publisher
Named a "Best New Podcast" in 2024 by Audible and Vulture. "This is no simple sports-recap podcast. Instead, each episode plays a bit like a dispatch from a foreign land — in this case Dodgers fandom — in which a local correspondent (that would be Parks) walks you through present concerns." (Vulture) Noted for its storytelling, sound design, and original music. A love letter to baseball and radio by a born-and-raised Angeleno.

S3 Ep 3"Tragedy & Theatre in Toronto"
This last week, we saw a 2025 World Series re-match, with the Dodgers taking two out of three games in a series against the Blue Jays in Toronto. Sadly, Dodgers infielder (and 2025 World Series hero) Miguel Rojas lost his father while the Dodgers were in Toronto. And Blue Jays manager John Schneider blew his top over a ticky-tack balk call, and was ejected, in a classic display of Baseball Theatre. Richard delivers these headlines, in DBD style.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
