Softball Diaries 73: John Ryan is the new Earl of Sandwich

John Ryan has joined softball and made a quick impact with his brilliant speed, tremendous fielding and general distaste for Noah Rush's success.  Softball Diaries has an exclusive interview where we go under the pope hat and get to the real John Ryan.  Ryan shares with us his opinions on digital projections and when breakfast food is appropriate.  So join us, as we get to the bottom of why John Ryan is so fast and why he hasn't tried to grow out his hair.  Special guest host Todd Dixon.  Listen here

Softball Diaries 72: Ben yawns and Mark winks, it's Mark Vaughn and Ben Link!

This week's podcast is a matchup of friends sparked in the south, forged in Philadelphia. Listen to this double-guest (and guest-host!) episode to find out how Ben and Mark met, what they bond over, and which Braves player they compare themselves to. Ever wanted to be a teacher? Own a business? We talk the good and the not so good. This is a timely episode since Ben Link is leaving Philly, so we say bye the only way we know how—asking about bodily fluids. First time co-host Justin Siebel and a fantastic new game celebrates the first half of softball's season with a tomahawk chop.

Softball Diaries 71: Bennett Daniels talks Benny McDaniels

Wow, did you guys know Bennett has never been on the podcast?  Well Bennett does, and boy is he steamed about it.  Though Kleger skipped town to dodge the heat, Bennett brings the hot takes on everything from why he hates dark meat to why speech pathology is the sexiest pathology.  Bennett also makes his feelings known about being compared to members of Mumford & Sons all while downing a 5th(?) of aquavit.  So listen to Bennett tear the softball universe a new one here.

Softball Diaries 70: An Arvo (or Two) with Todd Dixon

Hear the Diaries like never before: IN HD SUPER-CRISP AUDIO. Todd Dixon, an Aussie, a tour manager, and a bloomin' Sixers fan, is also a sound engineer. His talents are on display here, mate. I'm pretty sure he bugged Buco's house cause there were mics and equipment everywhere—and constant checking of 'the levels'. Our thanks to Todd for bringing us into the modern age of podcasting. Learn about why Todd dropped out of uni, what tour he will be managing in the fall, and gibberish American and Australian words. Also included is a 40 minute recap of Kleger's home-run, Todd saying funny sounding Australian cities, and Buco challenging him on the origin of Canadian or US things. Wherever you are, whether kneeling, standing, or putting water bottles down under tables, have a walkabout and take a listen.
