Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World Series, Episode 234: The See-Saw Mets
5d ago00:48:12Tap to summarizeWelcome to Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World Series, the new/old favorite from Chris McShane and Brian Salvatore. Another strange week of Mets' baseball is in the books. The Mets looked good against the Padres and decidedly not so agains the Cardinals. The starting rotation is a real question mark still, and with the upcoming schedule, things are looking rough for the Mets going forward.

1w ago01:11:07Tap to summarizeWelcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we discuss the infusion of excitement by the “psychopaths” A.J. Ewing and Carson Benge, including the latter’s five-hit game. We also talk about the rotation outlook, Jonah Tong’s demotion, and the Mets’ use of the opener. We also cover the continued absence of Jorge Polanco and Mark Vientos’ struggles. Next, we talk about the outlook ahead, as the travel schedule improves, but the strength of the opposition gets tougher. Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.

Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World Series, Episode 233: Up and Down and Up and Down
2w ago00:54:01Tap to summarizeWelcome to Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World Series, the new/old favorite from Chris McShane and Brian Salvatore. The Mets swept the Marlins and took one of three from the Mariners, but not all wins and losses are created equal. Are they righting the ship? Is it already too late? What are they thinking with regards to the return of Jorge Polanco?

A Pod of Their Own, Episode 276: No longer in last place!
2w ago01:22:01Tap to summarizeWelcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we begin by discussing the Mets’ up and down month of May, which at least ended on a positive note. We talk about whether the Mets can turn things around in June despite their tough schedule with help from the returning injured players. We also chat about the shifting sands of the rotation and congratulate Lee Mazzilli and Bobby Valentine for being inducted into the Mets Hall of Fame. In our baseball segment this week, we cover the opening bouts of the CBA fight, Trevor Williams suddenly becoming every conservative’s favorite baseball player, more degenerate gamblers threatening players’ families, and a very sleazy TMZ article implying that Adrián Beltré and Pedro Martinez believe Wander Franco should get a second chance (though their actual quotes are a bit more nuanced than that). Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.

This week, we have Bradford William Davis on the show to discuss his three-part series on MLB’s domestic violence investigation process and why the league goes the extra mile to find evidence to suspend some players, like José Reyes, but not others, like Mike Clevinger.

This week, we begin by discussing the Mets’ improved run of play in the month of May, mostly driven by the youth movement, and what it would take to believe again.
