S21 Ep 15Look from Brook: A Joy That Doesn't Wait for the Scoreboard
Opening Day always does something to me.There’s a crack of the bat, the smell of the grass, the feeling that maybe—just maybe—this is the year everything comes together.And when it does? When the ball clears the fence?That’s my kind of joy.Touchdown joy.Home run joy.The kind that shows up when the result goes your way.I’ve lived a lot of my life there.And then there’s Julio Rodriguez.

S21 Ep 13Look from Brook: Cindy in the Middle
I grew up sharing a bedroom with my two older brothers. Three boys in one room is not always the recipe for peace.One morning I woke up to the sound of them fighting. Not just arguing. Really fighting. Voices raised. Bodies moving into “stand off!” position! High noon at the McBride corral! The kind of tension that makes a younger kid lie still for a moment and wonder what to do.I was scared.And if I’m honest, I was a little bit of a tattletale.So I went and told Mom. She brought my brothers in and had a sit-down with them. The lecture was delivered. Justice had been served—at least from my point of view.But then I had a new problem.
