Named a "Best New Podcast" in 2024 by Audible and Vulture. "This is no simple sports-recap podcast. Instead, each episode plays a bit like a dispatch from a foreign land — in this case Dodgers fandom — in which a local correspondent (that would be Parks) walks you through present concerns." (Vulture) Noted for its storytelling, sound design, and original music. A love letter to baseball and radio by a born-and-raised Angeleno.

"Co-Raw-Doggin' in the Park with Chef Wes"

The Dodgers have been slumping. But with the help of key players like Shohei Ohtani (and the co-hosts of DBD, of course) that could be changing... in the midst of a historic Dodgers losing streak, Richard and Chef Wes cruise the streets of L.A. in Wes' 1979 C10 pickup truck, "The Mamalona," and stop in for tacos at Birrieria Nochistlan in Boyle Heights, to eat their feelings -- and to discuss Dem Bums' team-wide slump, which is hopefully ending, after a 4-game losing streak skid, losing to the rival Giants, no less.

He calls opposing players names... He slides hard into second base... which is disallowed in today's game. He gets drilled in the ribs by fastballs... and when he does, he hardly blinks.

Is Dalton Rushing the most hated man in baseball?

Dalton Rushing, the Dodgers backup catcher, is off to a historically great start to the 2026 season, offensively speaking. At the same time, he's attracting even more attention than that merits, going "viral" on baseball social media viral for some allegedly untoward comments and epithets hurled at opposing players.

Richard dives in, breaks it down, gets into the backstory, and all that good stuff.
