Dodger Blue Dream
Named a "Best New Podcast" in 2024 by Audible and Vulture. A documentary about the Los Angeles Dodgers "made in real time, as the season unfolds" by writer, documentarian, and lifelong Dodger fan Richard Parks III. For fans, casual fans, and non-fans alike. "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.
