    62. Spring Check-In, It's Almost Time!

    Our long national nightmare is nearly over, and the next season of the Mets is almost HERE. Ellen, David, and Kait got together this week to talk a little bit about spring training, but mostly about a cursed video the Mets put out in which almost everyone on the team revealed that they have never seen a movie specifically created for adult viewers. (Exception: Brett!) We're very excited to get back to Citi Field, as you can tell, though that doesn't mean we forgive and that doesn't mean we forget. On that note, thank god that our sweet friend Pete Alonso isn't involved in the World Baseball Classic, am I right? Team USA has not been acquitting itself very well and he's too good for it. You may have seen that they are obsessed with rejecting friendly hand-shakes, talking incessantly about their duty to dominate on the world stage, and reportedly "blaring" a psychotic Toby Keith song about starting a war in the Middle East. Sorry. We didn't actually talk about that in this episode, but I forget what we did talk about!! Thank you Producer Nathan for editing this a mere four days after we recorded it and for correcting the notable error. I got confused because I personally don't intend to be in New York City on September 14, 15, or 16 and will instead be off the grid somewhere, ears and eyes covered.

    61. We're Putting Together An Extremely Hot Team

    Hello New York, are you okay? The city is about to go Day After Tomorrow, there's no snow day on Monday according to our NEW MAYOR, our baseball team was completely overhauled in the span of a week and is now staffed by STRANGERS. This week on Hits Different, David, Ellen, and Kait talk about David Stearns's plan to make the Mets as hot as possible and whether we forgive him for what he's done previously (no fucking chance). Yet, we're warming up to some ideas here... like a new season of baseball... sun in the sky over a baseball field... We might almost say... it can't come fast enough. One could even say Let's Go Mets... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    59. Season Finale, RIP and LGM

    This episode starts with a 10-minute discussion of the film Rookie of the Year, which some may call "cope." Alas, the 2025 New York Mets were bad. Isn't that more interesting than them being good? (That's cope.) Ellen, David, and Kait talk about who they would most like to see in the World Series and come to an identical conclusion which is likely to shock you: We don't want the Philadelphia Phillies, Los Angeles Dodgers, or New York Yankees to be in it. Otherwise it's all gravy. (I'm sorry for saying I don't really root for the Cubs—I will because my Aunt Karen likes them so much and this video of Seiya Suzuki's son was so cute.) We distribute one last batch of King of New York awards to some of the most deserving and sweetest. Once again we ask Pete Alonso not to break our hearts. Write to us during the winter!

    58. End of Summer, Stayin' Alive!

    Dom Hamel we hardly knew you!! Hope you clear waivers, bud. You will always be the MLB-record-breaking 46th pitcher the New York Mets were forced to use in a single season due to a series of ailments and flaws. This week on Hits Different, we are just trucking along. We are just doing our best! Poor Ellen was not upright for a lot of this. I showed everyone my heinous and tragic prize from the Mets Memorabilia Store "mystery grab bag" experience. Lest you forget, Pete hit a walk-off home run and went bubble gum bucket to the head. Katia Lindor is the most glamorous woman in New York. 30,000 people got ready to fight a probably nice and normal San Diego pitcher because he hit Francisco Alvarez our ANGEL!!! with a baseball!!! those things are hard!!!!! Brett is on the flag now. Everyone keeps saying "piggy-back." Send questions to hitsdiffpodcast@gmail.com. Let's go Mets! Stayin' alive! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    57. The Week the Mets Almost Blew It

    Uploading this AFTER Pete Alonso single-handedly saved the Mets season. Pete Alonso Met for life. Pete Alonso greatest Met of all time. Sorry for the delay. This week on Hits Different, we're talking about what some are calling the most cursed week of baseball in history. After a spectacular NOBLETIGER situation in which Edwin Diaz took his shoes off on the mound and then destroyed the Cincinnati Reds, the Mets went 1-6 in devastating fashion. Dear lord. We're talking about the "extremophiles" living in the Gowanus Canal, Harrison Bader's horrific heel-turn, the President's visit to Yankee Stadium, and whether it's better to watch your team flop so hard that the end of the season is chill and silly or whether it's better to CLING TO HOPE until the bitter end. Official Hits Different ruling: Ya gotta believe! Send questions to hitsdiffpodcast@gmail.com. We still love the Mets! It's all about the Mets baby, let's go Mets! Hosted on Acast.

    56. Can the Mets Win a World Series With a Pitching Staff of Children?

    David is on vacation, Ellen is back from vacation! She tells us all about her new favorite ballpark (omg) and another ballpark she went to last week that she also liked but not as much. We spent more time than we felt good about trying to figure out when Pete and Haley Alonso are having their baby. Sorry, it was girl talk! This isn't a Larry Stylinson, Babygate situation, we're just excited. Longgggggg episode this week. Girl talk! I'm posting this right after the Mets lost the series to the Reds, so I feel vindicated in having been a bit of a bummer on mic a couple days ago. I had been thinking "that was wrong of me." No. Always right! Producer Nathan and I will be going to Yankee Stadium on 9/11. If any Yankees fans listen to this (eek!!) please let us know what the best snacks are. As you know, I can't have anything with ketchup because your stadium does not provide Heinz. Let's go Mets! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    55. Phillies Fans Accuse Mets of Cheating (Sweet!)

    Francisco Alvarez is sort of like the Joker if he was nice. He wears the craziest suits I've ever seen and after he breaks a bone or tears a ligament in half it's a matter of days until he is back to peak physical performance. Also he kind of growls wordlessly sometimes. This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn discuss the head injury that Kaitlyn suffered last week, compelling her to sleep through podcast recording time and then to yell at Mr. Met in a crowded subway station. That was awful and resulted in the Mets losing two out of three to the Nationals. But now we're ok and the Mets are back! This episode was recorded before the debut of the wonderful Canadian infant Jonah Tong and we also didn't yet know that he was going to select the #21, previously worn by Max Scherzer. Producer Nathan can potentially just have some letters swapped out on the jersey that's been gathering dust in the closet. It's Tong Time! The Phillies are terrified of the Mets? The World Series is back on? When Ellen comes back from California and we can ask her, then we will know for sure. Let's go Mets! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
