When Patti and her potty-mouthed friend talk baseball, you'll know this is not a baseball podcast for lightweights. This is the real deal, from real fans. Because diamonds are a strong woman's best friend, and there's no crying in baseball.

Cinderella, Magic, and Momentum

October 06, 2020 16:00 - 53 minutes - 36.5 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth welcome artist, writer, and baseball fan Anika Orrock to tell us about her vintage style baseball illustrations, and the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum art show and benefit. Through October 10th, a percentage of your purchase from any of 100 artists helps raise funds for this important museum. In that crazy week of Wildcard games, what the hell happened to Bieber? What happened to the runner on second? How about that Bauer gem that was still a 1 run loss in ...

How was Hunter Pence never an NCiB Boyfriend?

September 29, 2020 16:00 - 52 minutes - 35.8 MB

Hard to believe, but we got through the whole dang season. Patti and the Pottymouth give you their good, bad, and ugly of how it went, should it have gone? And what about all those new rules?  It felt like a lot more guys were injured, but also a lot more got their call ups. Hunter Pence retires and we wish him well. This crazy Wildcard Week is just beginning so we try to lay it all out for you. We even make a few predictions with absolutely no conviction whatsoever. MLB gives staf...

Does Ian Anderson pitch standing on one leg?

September 22, 2020 16:00 - 55 minutes - 38.2 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth welcome Marla from the Mansplain Baseball Elsewhere podcast to talk Atlanta baseball. We share some Freddie love, talk changing problematic team names, and feel tremendously old as our Jethro Tull jokes fall flat.  Playoffs are a week away so we get you prepped with the layout of the rounds, seeding, and quarantine rules.  They aren’t bubbles, they are neutral sites with protocols. Will there be fans in the stands for the World Series? It’s Texas, so who kn...

Dangerous Pants

September 15, 2020 16:00 - 46 minutes - 31.7 MB

Zack Wheeler proves what we’ve been saying all along.  Pants are dangerous. Not as dangerous as ticking off Dodger fans, who trolled the visiting Asterisks by land, air, and art. The legendary Vin Scully is auctioning off his extensive collection of memorabilia in order to make a meaningful charitable donation, and leave the kids and grandkids a little something. This year’s Roberto Clemente Day saw Puerto Rican players, and the whole Pirates team, wearing number 21, and a call for ...

Waino and Yadi are the most pure thing in baseball

September 11, 2020 16:00 - 46 minutes - 32.3 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth talk all things Cardinals with guest Tara Wellman, co-host of the Chirps and Gateway to Baseball Heaven podcasts. Tara takes us through the aftermath of the COVID-19 shutdown, the responsibility of national media to get the facts straight, baseball towns, and “The Cardinal Way.” We look at the lightning rod that is Yadier Molina, and the resurgence of Cy Young-ish Adam Wainwright. Tara is happily on the I told you so end of knowing great things would come f...

Cal, Cardinals, and Comebacks

September 08, 2020 16:00 - 51 minutes - 35.1 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth talk all things Cardinals with guest Tara Wellman, co-host of the Chirps and Gateway to Baseball Heaven podcasts. Tara takes us through the aftermath of the COVID-19 shutdown, the responsibility of national media to get the facts straight, baseball towns, and “The Cardinal Way.” We celebrate the 25th anniversary of Ironman Cal Ripken Jr.’s historic 2131st game and share some tidbits you maybe didn’t get the first time around. Slam Diego won the trade deadli...

Jason Heyward is *The* Baseball Boyfriend, and more Cubs talk

September 04, 2020 16:00 - 39 minutes - 26.8 MB

What can two die-hard Cubs fans, a third generation Red Sox fan, and a Cleveland girl agree on?  Jason Heyward. In our full conversation with Cuppa Cubbie Blue co-hosts Andi Cruz Vanecek and Sara Sanchez, we all stand with J-Hey, even when his team let him, and us, down. Sara and Andi walk us through what the Cub’s bad decision-making in the face of an historic moment for racial justice in professional sports looked and felt like close up.  And share their strategies for handling ba...

This is Bigger Than Baseball

September 01, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 42.1 MB

Cuppa Cubbie Blue co-hosts Sara Sanchez and Andi Cruz Vanacek join Patti and the Pottymouth to talk all things Cubs, with a focus on this week’s racial justice actions and inactions, and strategies for moving forward when the team you love the most disappoints you in non-baseball ways. In unity with those protesting the police shooting of Jacob Blake, Dominic Smith and Jack Flaherty make emotional calls to action, the Dodgers stand with Mookie Betts, and Jason Heyward and Dexter Fowler sit ...

Hips Don’t Lie: Slam Diego’s Dugout Dancers, Unwritten Rules, and Manscaping, with Hell’s Belles

August 27, 2020 16:00 - 56 minutes - 39.2 MB

In this complete and (mostly) uncut conversation, Patti and the Pottymouth hang with their San Diego sisters, Angela and Liddy of the Hell’s Belles podcast, and agree that your first time should be special, whether it’s your first grand slam or your first World Series. Pour yourself a Crown and Coke and settle in for #TeamTatis’ take on unwritten rules, replacements for Rob Manfred, the economics of cardboard cutouts, and the curse of dubious ballpark advertising.  The dancing is im...

Welcome to Slam Diego

August 25, 2020 16:00 - 58 minutes - 40.5 MB

Our pals, Angela and Liddy, better known as “Hell's Belles,” join us to celebrate the joy that is the San Diego Padres -- grand slam records, Air Tatis, dugout dancers and more, a conversation quite possibly fueled by adult beverages. But not before we show some love to Patti’s Giant’s BF Joey Bart, who at last got the call up, and almost completed a Rookie Cycle in his first game (h/t to friend of the show Deborah).  We’ve got a little Yaz, a little Evan, and a pasta party with Tim...

Can I talk about some more jerks?

August 18, 2020 16:00 - 47 minutes - 32.9 MB

Plesac, Clevenger, Cintrón, we’ve got ‘em all going on. Turns out breaking your team’s code of conduct, disparaging someone’s mother, defending said mother, and pouting all have consequences.  The Cardinals are back after 19 days off, just in time for the Reds to have an active player test positive putting a few games on ice. We will enjoy any opportunity to set Trevor Bauer off on a righteous rant, however. Oh, hey, the Orioles are still above .500 and Austin Hays hit the league’s...

Doolittle is our Patron Saint, Tatis, Jr. is our Poster Boy

August 11, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 45.5 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth have a new best friend in Clive Hsu, English language broadcaster for the CPBL.  We talk with Clive about how a high school guidance counselor gets the baseball gig, the importance of singing at the stretch, Pottymouth’s Lion’s BF, the Baltimore Orioles, and why everyone should be watching the CPBL. Did we mention the Os are at .500 and have a better record than the Red Sox and the Nationals? The Oakland A’s show us their good (9 straight wins and excellent...

Never Apologize for the Pottymouth

August 04, 2020 16:00 - 52 minutes - 36.3 MB

The return of the Joe Kelly Fight Club puts Pottymouth in the excellent company of Dusty Baker. Dave Roberts thinks we’ve got that whole Astros cheating thing out of our system now so Alex Bregman’s head should be safe from here on out.  Patti believes Joe laid the groundwork for his defense with his video of a wild pitch breaking a window in his home. There’s actual good news to report this week with BabyTrout and a swath of young baseball boyfriends making their presence known. L...

2.7 is the New 1

July 28, 2020 16:00 - 59 minutes - 40.6 MB

We snuck in the baseball math right up top -- 60 games shortened season x 2.7 = 162 game regular season. But with the Marlins COVID-19 outbreak, will we get past the first week? MLB’s health protocols start to fall apart as active players, initially Juan Soto of the Nationals and Matt Davidson of the Reds, and now a huge swath of the Miami Marlins, test positive smack in the middle of playing games against other teams, on the road and at home. And still the games continue. This, af...

Holy Cow! Women in Baseball Week Interview with Kat Williams

July 22, 2020 16:00 - 49 minutes - 33.8 MB

We celebrate the 4th annual Women in Baseball Week by talking to Dr. Kat Williams about her new book, Isabel “Lefty” Alvarez: The Improbable Life of a Cuban-American Baseball Star. Kat is a professor of American history at Marshall University, board president of the International Women’s Baseball Center, and author of The All-American Girls after the AAGPBL: How Playing Pro Ball Shaped Their Lives.  We examine what it means to view a life through the lens of sports identity. Throug...

A Place that Was Safe, Where I Knew I Was Strong: Women in Baseball Week, with Kat Williams

July 21, 2020 16:00 - 59 minutes - 40.6 MB

We celebrate the 4th annual Women in Baseball Week by talking to Dr. Kat Williams about her new book, Isabel “Lefty” Alvarez: The Improbable Life of a Cuban-American Baseball Star. We examine what it means to view a life through the lens of sports identity, and celebrate the work of the International Women’s Baseball Center, where Kat is Board president. (The full interview with Kat will be released as a separate episode) MLB’s testing results are markedly better this week, both in...

Save the Spit for the Test

July 14, 2020 16:00 - 53 minutes - 36.5 MB

The only spitting currently allowed in the MLB is into vials for mandatory testing. Pottymouth’s musings about the total volume of saliva this collects on a daily basis aside, the testing protocols are failing in a number of ways. Intake testing wasn’t actually completed until a week after the league announced the results, and an additional 17 positive tests came from the first round of monitor tests *after* players and staff completed intake and were approved to enter training faci...

“Sports Are the Reward of a Functioning Society”

July 07, 2020 16:00 - 57 minutes - 39.2 MB

Instead, we have the sh*#show that is an MLB testing protocol that could not factor in the 4th of July holiday. The As, Cards, Nats, and others cancelled workouts because test results had not arrived.  In the case of the As, the tests themselves were still sitting at the outgoing airport. Angels and Yankees players had to administer their own swab tests as the testing staff were no-shows.   Sean Doolittle, patron saint of the show, provides the quote of the season as well as the new...

What Do We Do With the COVIDiots?

June 30, 2020 16:00 - 55 minutes - 38.1 MB

Here comes MLB, unless it doesn’t. We catch you up on what the shortened season schedule may look like, how the rosters will work (until they don’t), the new game rules, and the protocols that work until players leave the facility and are left to their own best judgements. Or in the case of Texas, the shaky judgement of the Rangers front office and the Governor. Pottymouth gets international attention for baseball boyfriends during breakfast baseball with the CPBL. The Lions score ...

Back Around to March, Pirate Booty, Heroes, and Addison Frickin’ Russell

June 23, 2020 16:00 - 43 minutes - 29.6 MB

After all that back and forth, looks like the MLB plan agreed upon in March is moving forward.  The MLBPA held their ground, and now it’s a matter of health protocols.  The COVID-19 outbreak affecting at least 40 players and staff has shut down facilities in Arizona and Florida, and raised many more questions. Some independent leagues plan to start up with much less fuss, so you may get some local baseball after all. Addison Frickin’ Russell gets picked up by the KBO Heroes and we ...

100% of Not Enough

June 16, 2020 16:00 - 45 minutes - 31.1 MB

The sh*t hits the fan as MLBPA calls MLB’s “we are 100% going to have a season this year” bluff and says they are ready to play just tell us where and when. The League instead counters with a requirement that players waive their rights to legal claims against them. With all the instances of bad faith on the part of the owners, the remaining question is will Rob Manfred resign or be asked to leave? Meanwhile, Florida is bursting with sports bubbles, hosting the NBA, the MLS, and the ...

The Cat Has Meaning

June 09, 2020 16:00 - 44 minutes - 30.3 MB

The world is still on fire and we acknowledge that by discussing how the world of sports is responding. Joey Votto shares a journey, Drew Brees gets a very public education and stands by it, Roger Goodell says some of the right things, albeit a few years too late, and there’s a campaign to remove Marge Schott’s name from the facilities at the University of Cincinnati. Adam Jones demonstrates in Japan.  Lorenzo Cain, Josh Bell, and others talk police accountability with the president...

Everything is a Sh**show Right Now

June 03, 2020 16:00 - 43 minutes - 30.1 MB

The world is burning and we intend to “stick to sports” the way we always do, in the context of social justice. Andrew McCutcheon (“I don’t want pity. I want justice.”), Dexter Fowler, Marcus Stroman, Lucas Giolito, NCiB Patron Saint Sean Doolittle and other players make their voices heard. We talk with Bobby Coon of the “Pulling  Tarp” podcast about the present and the future of the Minor Leagues: players being cut loose, players being paid or not depending on the team and access t...

Brian Dozier is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things

May 26, 2020 16:00 - 50 minutes - 34.7 MB

Don’t get us wrong, we here at NCiB love us some Brian Dozier, and the community building he is doing in his neighborhood would be drink-worthy adorable if it wasn’t in the middle of a frickin’ pandemic. But it is, and it’s a great example of why a shortened MLB season outside of a BioBubble is way too risky. Plans are moving forward, with the players’ union responding to the health and safety protocol proposal, Governors weighing in on letting baseball happen under strict guideline...

Jose Canseco is our Muse

May 19, 2020 16:00 - 39 minutes - 27.3 MB

You should watch the finals of the First Annual Bump Bailey Wax Pack Hero Tournament of Awesome. No reason, other than Patti, Pottymouth, Jose Canseco, and a Golden Pickle. 67 pages of MLB’s proposed health protocols later, we are sure that spitting and showers are discouraged, but still don’t know what will happen if multiple players test positive for COVID-19.  We think it is good news that the testing plan is designed to result in a surplus of tests to be provided to health care...

Mother’s Day, Mimosas, and Monsoons

May 12, 2020 16:00 - 48 minutes - 33.5 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth get a little weepy over Mother’s Day.  Pottymouth over the CPBL mascot-themed card drawn by her artist daughter, and Patti for clean gutters, many mimosas, and Adley Rutschman. We start with laying out the rumored plan for bringing back MLB, and poke it full of holes like a biobubble over a spring training facility. We wave some flags about the presumed demise of the minor leagues, and go just the way you would think about owners wanting to cut player salar...

KBO and IPAs

May 05, 2020 16:00 - 1 hour - 41.6 MB

Fueled by Isolation Pale Ale brewed by Mr. Pottymouth, your hosts learn about Korean baseball from Jeeho Yoo, KBO reporter for Yonhap News Agency in Seoul. Jeeho shares his take on the culture of baseball in South Korea, the plan for keeping players, media, and staff safe and healthy, and just a few digs on the Orioles. Much as we like the sound of watching KBO, we are not giving up our new dedication to #breakfastbaseball with the CPBL. It turns out Patti and the Pottymouth are goo...

A Suitcase Full of Monkey Swag

April 28, 2020 16:00 - 55 minutes - 38 MB

Or Lion swag, if you’re Pottymouth. NCiB talks Taiwanese baseball with Daniel Shih, sports director at @tstvsports and host of “Rants With Danny Shih.” The CPBL is the only live baseball happening worldwide, and as such is simultaneously playing to empty ballparks and thousands of international Twitter followers. We talk teams (Patti and Danny back the Rakuten Monkeys, and Pottymouth is a Uni Lion for Life), the culture and history of baseball in Taiwan, and how to get Monkey and Li...

Monkeys and Wyverns and Dinos. Oh, My.

April 21, 2020 16:00 - 46 minutes - 32.3 MB

10,000 employees of Major League Baseball, from players and front office staff to ushers and your friends that sell you your ballpark beer, have volunteered to participate in a Coronavirus Antibodies study that may help shape public policy. The study is not designed to bring baseball back any faster, but it will paint a picture of the spread of the virus across locations, economic status, race, and medical histories. Anthony Fauci, America’s favorite doctor, came out as pro-BioBubbl...

Scorekeeping with Blake: The Reckoning

April 14, 2020 16:00 - 54 minutes - 37.4 MB

In the final installment of our score keeping trilogy, Blake grades Patti and Pottymouth’s homework (totally on a curve), and answers the hard questions -- many of which could be solved by larger squares in which to note plays. If you haven’t done your homework yet, get your scorecard and score the September 3, 2019 Nats vs Mets game. See if you have the same questions! In the post-apocalyptic world, baseball is played in an Arizona-based BioBubble, and basketball in Vegas. What co...

That Juan Soto Run-down, Though

April 07, 2020 16:00 - 59 minutes - 40.6 MB

Pencils and scorecards are ready for Part 2 of “Scorekeeping with Blake.” Our brave teacher leads us through basic scoring notations and setting up our scorecards, and suddenly we are re-living the Nats/Brewers Wildcard game. It takes so much longer to score that Juan Soto run-down in the 8th than it does to watch it happen. Blake assigns us homework of scoring the September 3rd Nats vs. Mets game, to be graded on the next episode. After a brief Sports Movie Review conversation in ...

There’s Beer and People are Nice

March 31, 2020 16:00 - 44 minutes - 30.6 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth are excited to start a new segment today: Scorekeeping with Blake. Dedicated scorekeeper Blake has been with us in Section 408 of Nats Park for two years, alerting us to immaculate innings, impending no-nos, and catching us up on what we missed on that last beer run. In this episode, Blake gives us some history on the art of keeping book, some context for why fans do it, and why the official scorekeeper wields a lot of power.  Next week we will have a lesson...

Interview with Jeremy Wolf, CEO, More Than Baseball

March 26, 2020 18:00 - 38 minutes - 26.2 MB

On the day the Save America’s Pastime Act passed, allowing teams to pay minor league players below minimum wage, More Than Baseball was born. Former players Jeremy Wolf and Slade Heathcott, along with current player Simon Rosenblum-Larson, created an organization to make sure minor leaguers have what they need to succeed. At the meta level, their job is to make people love baseball by helping communities see the value the players on their minor league team bring to them. At a basic...

The One Where Patti #stayedthef*ckhome

March 24, 2020 16:00 - 30 minutes - 21 MB

Even a Beermobile delivery is not enough to make up for Patti and Pottymouth not being in the same room, but nevertheless, we persisted. We celebrated the new addition to the Pottymouth family, Eris Israel Filpo. Through Adopt a Minor Leaguer, the Pottymouths have pledged to help out Eris, a player in the Rangers organization, currently at home in the Dominican Republic. Did you hear that there is baseball medical news that is not pandemic related? Chris Sale to have Tommy John surg...

An Abundance of Caution

March 17, 2020 16:00 - 45 minutes - 31.2 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth and their socially-distanced Smart Baseball Brains bring you the baseball state of the pandemic. The eight week delay, minimum, to the start of the season has clear implications for fans, but what does it mean for paychecks for major and minor league players, umpires, and hourly facilities workers? How does it affect service time and dates for incentives and bonuses? The NBA and NHL are modelling good league-level behavior and it is time for Baseball to step...

Where the F*ck is Toro?

March 10, 2020 16:00 - 47 minutes - 32.9 MB

Stop touching your face. It would be irresponsible not to discuss the intersection of the coronavirus and baseball, so we do. Games have not yet been affected, but some teams are requiring players at Spring Training to pre-sign baseballs and cards under controlled conditions in the clubhouse, to be distributed to fans, rather than sharing pens and passing objects back and forth. Clean club houses and chartered planes will protect young, healthy players, but good luck finding 6’ of s...

Minor League Matchmaking, Now With Bonus Chihuahuas

March 03, 2020 17:00 - 52 minutes - 36.1 MB

In one month, Michael Rivers matched up dozens of financially-struggling minor league ballplayers with individuals willing and able to commit to a seasons’ worth of care packages and gift cards, and he’s still going strong. In this episode, we talk with Michael about how “Adopt a MiLB Player” began and how fans of the game can help out until MLB fixes its labor policies. Our boyfriends this week include a couple of Baby Bombers, Gleybor Torres and Miguel Andújar of the Yankees. Afte...

Eric Thames Arms

February 25, 2020 17:00 - 50 minutes - 34.4 MB

Tangents this week include Eric Thames’ arms, O. Henry, and Ironman’s math skills, which it turns out are better than Patti’s. Spring Training games have started yet there is still Astros scandal detritus to clean up, so much so that Rob Manfred doesn’t have time to tell Atlanta, “Stop using the Tomahawk Chop.” Twins boyfriends include Cheech and Chong cosplayers/contact hitters Luis Arraez and Willians “La Tortuga” Astudillo. Closer to home, Pottymouth hangs on to future MVP Juan S...

BONUS: Coach Whitey

February 20, 2020 17:00 - 30 minutes - 20.9 MB

Andrew Whitener is the head strength and conditioning coach at DC Dynasty, and owner of District Performance.  Coach Whitey talks with Patti and the Pottymouth about the best hour of his week, the time spent training a group of players from DC Girls Baseball. He works with the girls on specific baseball conditioning and gives them the tools for lifelong health and fitness. The girls give him a different perspective on what it means to be a baseball player. The conversation touches ...

Premeditated Retaliation

February 18, 2020 17:00 - 1 hour - 42.7 MB

Sorry not sorry = words of House MLB, followed by “Let’s just move on.” Did the Red Sox really do their due diligence around Alex Verdugo? Police reports indicate otherwise. But he just wants to move on. Astros owner Jim Crane apologized by stating he shouldn’t be held accountable. Just wants to move on. Former Astros apologize much better than current Astros, who can’t seem to stop talking, but just want to move on. Dusty Baker makes “premeditated retaliation” a thing. Thank the b...

Defense Against the Dark Arts

February 11, 2020 17:00 - 42 minutes - 29 MB

New information on the Astros cheating scandal implicates interns, Excel, and Harry Potter.  Were the right people punished? Still not over, friends, still not over. At the time of recording, the Mookie Betts trade remained up in the air, leading us to agree with Justin Turner that journalists shoving decorum to the side to get a scoop can make a real mess of things. Speaking of messes, the Player’s Union and Joc Pederson got the shaft from MLB and the Arbitration Panel, who force...

A Squirrel, a Polar Bear, the Beast and Superman walk into a bar...

February 04, 2020 17:00 - 46 minutes - 32.3 MB

We get way into the weeds around the Astros cheating scandal and cite a few studies trying to get at what players were doing what and when and can we ever know. Dusty Baker riding into town to clean up the Clubhouse Culture gives us hope. Pottymouth channels her inner Whitney to introduce her new Cleveland boyfriend, that “big happy chunk of ball destruction” Franmil Reyes. Patti starts her Oscar Mercado profile with a Christmas morning in Cartagena story, and ends it with a Superma...

Just Wait ‘Til Next Year, Omar

January 28, 2020 17:00 - 41 minutes - 28.4 MB

Pottymouth does math (!) to show how NCiB once and forever baseball boyfriend Omar Vizquel will get voted into the Hall of Fame *next* year. Maybe. New Mets manager Luis Rojas has an excellent pedigree and a deep history with the team. Patti and the Pottymouth pull out their Mom cred to jump on Scott Boras’ assertions that the Astros players don’t need to apologize, and Justin Turner wonders why Dallas Keuchel, who didn’t even hit, was the one who did. Rep. Bobby Rush says Congress ...

A Little Bit Happy, A Little Bit WTF

January 21, 2020 17:00 - 51 minutes - 35.6 MB

Patti and the Pottymouth perform a public service by saving their Astros Cheating Scandal rant until the end of the show, so they can set you up with the happy first. Boyfriends this week come from the Rangers and the Cubs. Pottymouth leads the Texas talk with Joey “Pico de” Gallo, an actual joey, and some puppies, and Patti counters with Nick “Hockey kid” Solak, an enthusiastic mom, and a holiday proposal. Over at Wrigley, Pottymouth finds her catcher in bat-dropping Wilson Contre...

Patti Breaks up with Anthony Rendon

January 14, 2020 17:00 - 46 minutes - 31.8 MB

Baseball players once again step up for disaster relief, this time for earthquakes in Puerto Rico, where ballparks are serving as shelters. Our favorite World Series first pitch, Chef Jose Andres, is feeding thousands through his World Central Kitchen, a good destination for your relief dollars or volunteer time, if you are so inclined. Patti explains Arbitration, and runs through NCIB boyfriends past and present heading down the file and trial road. Mookie and Cody set records for...

Wild Boars, WAR, and A*&hole of the Year Award

January 07, 2020 17:00 - 46 minutes - 32.2 MB

In the first episode of the new year, we bestow our very first A*&hole of the year award to Domingo Germán, who earned the league’s longest suspension for violation of the domestic abuse policy for a player not formally charged.  The Yankees clean house in training and conditioning and make us wonder just how good the 103 game-winning team will be without a record number of player injuries.  On a related note, wild boars have joined suitcases and drones on the list of causes of prev...

Growing Into His Man Muscles

December 31, 2019 17:00 - 46 minutes - 31.7 MB

This week’s baseball boyfriends represent the Seattle Mariners and Colorado Rockies and include an actual smackdown. Pottymouth’s BF Austin Nola will be competing with Patti’s BF, Evan “Beautiful Freak” White, for the Mariner’s starting 1B. Representing the Rockies, Pottymouth selects commercial star and self-proclaimed Momma’s Boy, Ryan McMahon, while Patti goes for former National and longtime good human Ian Desmond. Moving forward from the tragedy that was the death of Tyler Ska...

Boba Fett, Baseball Boyfrend

December 24, 2019 17:00 - 47 minutes - 32.8 MB

Patti marks the release of the latest Star Wars movie by spoiler-free naming Boba Fett, er, Bo Bichette, her Blue Jays boyfriend for 2020. Pottymouth is happy to find that even though we never stopped talking about Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. last season, he wasn’t an official boyfriend, until now. Over in San Diego, Pottymouth lays claim to Eric “Red Hot Chili Peppers” Hosmer, while Patti chooses Josh “Born with Skates on” Naylor.  Let. The. Kids. Play. We realize we might actually lik...

Pottymouth and The Punisher

December 17, 2019 17:00 - 43 minutes - 29.8 MB

Pottymouth is all in for Aristides “The Punisher” Aquino as her new Reds boyfriend, so much so that her Dominican Winter League fandom is now divided. Patti also looks to the outfield and selects Nick Senzell, who had her at The Green Monster “makes you feel so tiny.” Over in Kansas City, Cuban-born Jorge Soler and his personal emoji capture Pottymouth’s attention, while Hunter Dozier and his backyard batting cage are Patti’s pick. Anthony Rendon is leaving is for the Angels where ...

Pierogis vs. Presidents

December 10, 2019 17:00 - 38 minutes - 26.7 MB

In which we get the episode number right but say Padres when we mean Pirates and George when we mean Gregory. Welcome to the off-season. Patti provides helpful career advice to Pottymouth by comparing job postings for favorite mascots.  We profile our new Orioles boyfriends, Pedro Severino and Anthony Santander, who we hear is very big in the UK. Just to stir things up, Pottymouth gives up her volatile Pirates boyfriends of the past to select Bryan Reynolds, complete with a fishin...
