A Pod of Their Own, Episode 112: “The Captain” Book Discussion




Home Run Applesauce: A New York Mets podcast show

Summary: Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, a show by the women of Amazin’ Avenue where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space.  This week, we begin with a short discussion of the one bit of Mets news that there is to speak of: the rounding out of Buck Showalter’s coaching staff.  Next, we spend the bulk of the show talking about David Wright’s memoir The Captain, written by Anthony DiComo of MLB.com in conjunction with Wright.  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.  You can listen or subscribe to all of our wonderful Amazin’ Avenue Audio podcasts through Apple Podcasts, where we encourage you to leave a review if you enjoy the show.
