My favorite podcast currently out there. Joe and Molly are true baseball fans and that is so easy to see from the first episode. Great guests so far and awesome stories every episode

Joe and Molly get to the heart of why we love this silly game. Listening to them, and their guests, is joyful and inspiring. It’s exactly what we all need right now.

Watched and listened to the live broadcast and first episode yesterday. Enjoyed both and can’t wait for the upcoming episodes. Smart, funny, poignant and a positive vibe in a crazy time. The JOY of Baseball is real and this show captures it.
