#texasrangers

Woo Woo Woo! On this week's episode we:

• Congratulate our 2023 World Series Champions the Texas Rangers! How exciting! #wentandtookit
• say RIP to Matthew Perry. As of now, there is no suspected foul play, but we know he struggled with addiction and he stated that he didn't just want to be known for Friends, but as someone who struggled with and overcome addiction and that help was available. Please reach out for help if you need it. You aren't alone. 
• Keith Lee, a TikTok famous food critique, makes headlines about restaurant culture. Even Cardi B is talking about it so you know we had to also!
• We break down the list circulating about places you aren't allowed to take someone on a first date. It is very clear that neither of us need to be making dating choices at this moment in time. 
• We're going to our first event! We're checking out friend of the podcast, local artist, Myloh Remora at the Cozy Luxe Experiement on 11/18/23 at Vitruvian Park Tavern in Addison TX. Be there or be square!
• Our Triple Dipper this week is our Top 3 Lessons Learned as a Chilihead! Tune in for some tasty little life tidbits. 

Thanks so much for joining us! Make sure you follow us on FB, IG and TikTok and head on over to our Spotify where we ask what the best lesson you've learned at a job is. We'd love to hear from you! See y'all next week.

Woo Woo Woo!

Episode #117 features two incredibly entertaining, returning guests, Bobby Valentine and Emily Detwiler. 

Bobby Valentine or as most people call him, Bobby V is one of the most loved, well known, respected, colorful, and celebrated ambassadors of the game.  His life has been an incredible journey filled with wonderful stories which he shares in astonishing detail in the book, Valentine's Way: My Adventurous Life and Times, coauthored with Peter Golenbock.  Bobby V is a former Major League Baseball player and manager, managing teams in both the United States and Japan.  Many people know him for one game in which he was ejected for speaking his mind and then sitting in the dugout wearing a disguise, but that is a mere drop in a very large bucket of a life filled with special people and events.  He has worked for a future United States President, been a restaurateur, a champion ballroom dancer, an ESPN baseball analyst, and managed the New York Mets in the 2000 Subway Series against the crosstown rival New York Yankees.    

Emily Detwiler is the CEO of the Kansas City Barbeque Society (KCBS) and a baseball fan, especially of any team on which her brother-in-law, pitcher, Ross Detwiler is playing.  The past couple of years have not been easy for an organization that relies heavily on barbecue competitions in the United States as well as throughout the world and yet, Emily has managed to elevate the KCBS back to the lofty success level it once achieved.  We are joined by our friend, Doug Scheiding as we discuss barbecue with a small amount of baseball thrown in.

We recommend you go to Fifth & Cherry, https://fifthandcherry.com for wonderful cutting boards and http://www.baseballbbq.com for grill tools and clothing for barbecue and baseball fans and the Pandemic Baseball Book Club, https://www.pbbclub.com  to find many of the wonderful books we have featured as well as some additional swag.

We conclude the show with the beautiful song, "Ace and Bobo" from the musician, Dave Dresser and the poet, Shel Krakofsky.

We truly appreciate our listeners and hope that all of you are staying safe.
