Hi everybody!

So, and I had a little spring training talk! I don’t even remember all the stuff we talked about, I know we talked some Dodgers, some Orioles, some free agents … but, whatever, it’s always a blast to chat baseball with Molly. We’ll try to do a couple of more of these during spring training. If you have questions, leave them in the comments and we’ll try to get to them.

And it goes without saying that you should be subscribed to Molly’s newsletter. It’s great on all topics, but particularly on the Dodgers, and that team is going to be utterly fascinating all year long.

Well, we’re a little more than a month into the season, so Molly Knight (check out her awesome Substack) and I go all around the league to talk about:

* The goofy things happening in St. Louis

* The Dodgers’ paternity leave parade

* The pure awesomeness of Ronald Acuña

* The struggles of Juan Soto (though he went 4-for-4 on Tuesday!)

* The hope that that the Pirates can somehow keep defying gravity

* The more realistic hope that the Orioles can keep defying gravity

And much more! Check it out.

Molly Knight and I are back — talking rule changes, talking Andrew Painter, talking Manny Machado, just talking ball.

As always, I cannot more strongly recommend signing up for Molly’s Substack The Long Game, where she talks about baseball, creativity and mental health … and plenty of other things as well. She’s the best.

Joe and Molly are talking World Series again with the wonderful Ellen Adair as we head into Game 6 of the World Series. We talk about what went wrong for the Phillies in Games 4 and 5, how they can turn it around in Game 6, how important it is that they get something out of pitcher Zack Wheeler, and what sort of chaos to expect if the series goes to seven games.

OK, Molly Knight and I are back talking some baseball — and this time we are joined but the incredibly talented and altogether delightful Ellen Adair in the moments before she headed out to her first ever live Phillies World Series game. We’re talking about Brandon Marsh’s hair, we’re talking about Rob Thompson’s mojo, we’re talking about whether Game 1 was more exciting for Ellen than her wedding. Fun!

Joined by Molly Knight as we talk a little bit about the playoffs, what the heck is wrong with Cody Bellinger, how good a hitter Yordan Alvarez is and whether or not all the good players are on the West Coast now

Molly Knight has had a rough last few weeks dealing with COVID and various things that have gone along with it. But she is fighting back, and in the latest episode, Joe and Molly talk about Fernando Tatis, Shohei Ohtani, the Dodgers, the Astros and what the real home run record should be.

It goes without saying that you should sign up for Molly’s substack immediately.

Let me tell you what a trooper Molly Knight is. She has been deathly ill the last couple of weeks dealing with Covid. Like SUPER sick — can’t get out of bed sick.

But she texted me after Vin Scully passed away and said we HAD to do a podcast. So we recruited Mike Schur and talked a whole lot about Vin Scully … and the Dodgers … and the Juan Soto trade … and the sad existence of the Angels … and how much better peanut M&Ms are than regular M&Ms … and so much more!

Shortly after we did this, Molly had to check into a hospital for severe dehydration.

She’s much better now. But I gotta tell you, that’s the sort of Kellen Winslow commitment you get from Molly Knight. Sign up for her Substack, like, right now!
