• A Pod of Their Own, Episode 294: Control is everything to me
    Oct 22 2026
    Welcome 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 thanking everyone who attended last weekend’s Dollars for Dingers raffle event. We also discuss the latest rumors on who the Mets may hire for their coaching staff and the Phillies’ impending downfall (hopefully). Next, we talk about the World Series, which means we also talk about the ads that are airing during the World Series, which means we also talk about sports betting (and gambling/prediction markets in general) being a cancer. 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.

  • A Pod of Their Own, Episode 292: Go forth and embrace nature
    Sep 29 2026
    Welcome 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 reflect on the mostly miserable 2026 season. But Carson Benge did have a 20-20 season and Francisco Lindor did hit his 300th home run. Next, we review what David Stearns covered in his postseason press conference, including wanting to add a starting pitcher and retiring the phrase “run prevention.” In our baseball segment this week, we talk about how the American League should be ashamed of itself, why the Reds aren’t the Brewers, and more Sports Betting is a Cancer content. 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.
