    As Marla Hooch yells, “I’ll be back next season!” And we will also be back next season. Rachel and Tierney will be joined by Doris to talk about American Graffiti starting sometime in June 2021. That show will have it’s own feed to suscribe to and its own Facebook group (Mel’s Listeners’ Drive In), but updates will still be posted on other social media under the handle @vcrprivileges. Keep up the content in The Dugout with Dugan! We’re always happy to talk baseball in the offseason. Need another podcast to listen to before next summer? Moviesbyminutes.com has almost 200 shows to check out! If you are finding this show later, welcome and enjoy! If you are a historian researching how people lived during the summer of 2020, good luck on your thesis. “It’s been a thin slice of heaven; so long milkmaids!”

    2020’s Minor League loss is our guest-availability gain as Ashley Stephenson is joins us to talk about the movie A League of Their Own. Usually Ashley is busy as Director of Fan Engagement for the Charlotte Stonecrabs of Florida, but today she is giving us insight into mascot races, why minor league teams have such strange names, and what her heart tells her happened in that last play of the 1943 World Series. We also compare infield management styles of the AAGPBL to modern practices and wax poetic about Doris’s “There are a lot of us” speech on the bus. So long Charlie!

    Pete Mummert does not hold back on the hard-to-answer questions today. What did the leage mean to Dottie? Were we supposed to know Helen Haley was a doctor? How is adult Stillwell Angel handling all this? Why is Kit so late to the reunion? But, as you would expect from Indiana Jones Minute’s carbonite fever dream expert, he also brings some great possible answers. Tune in to hear all this and more, including real players, reunions, and real players’ reunions on screen. (Also, please note this is not actually the last episode. See you next week for the bottom of the 9th!)

    Today we’re joined by the Mayor of Red Sox Nation (Los Angeles Chapter), actress Hilary Barraford! (4:08) A long time baseball and A League of Their Own fan, she anoints Tierney a true Bostonian, declares the TV series to be in good hands, and shares what it was like to have Penny Marshall “whispering” in her ear while working on The United States of Tara. There are plenty of surprises along the way involving Kylie Bunbury, Becky the Icebox, and David Ortiz, as well as important questions like what’s the last great baseball movie? Be sure to check out Ellen Adair’s podcast Take Me in to the Ballgame after listening to our latest episode. Stay tuned for the MVP awards (1:18:04) and some meanderings into the great PSL debate and the changing of the seasons.

    Rockford has made it to the World Series and James Anderson has made it to our podcast. Everyone is here in Racine for Game 7 from Doris’s dad to Dottie Hinson—hey wait a minute! That’s right: Dottie is back and she is in full Terminator mode. We have so much to cover today from real on-screen injuries to the unfairness of Alice being benched, from Mae taking her place as leader to whether Kit ever went home again. Bob, bears, betrayal, Stillwell, signal ignoring, steak dinners, cut off men, and finally that infamous collision! James, Rachel, and Tierney debate how this movie could have ended and enjoy our last moments of the film in 1943. Bring your tissues because somebody will walk out of here champions and somebody else will just walk out of here.

    Erica Ayala writes about women in sports, studies leadership roles, and played Division One softball—which is to say that we’re lucky to have her on today to talk about A League of Their Own. Together we analyze the different roles (and all their associated expectations) that these players faced, and we develop some headcannon about Bob. As a former catcher, Erica brings expert insight into Dottie Hinson, but she also sees right into Kit Keller’s motivations as well. Don’t go 1000% in 100% the wrong direction: listen to this latest episode! 7th Inning Stretch by Josh Kantor (@jtkantor on Twitter) Music by Christopher Dennis di Guardia (@sportattentionspanpiano on Instagram) We’re on social media under our parent podcast series @vcrprivileges.

    Doug Greenberg takes a break from his show Rocky Minute to talk about a different sports movie today. A former catcher, he brings special insight into Jimmy’s speech about what makes baseball great. Doug, Rachel, and Tierney all confront their mortality and it isn’t even in relation to the telegram scene! Tracy Reiner breaks all our hearts, Tom Hanks is very good, and Tierney loves Bill Pullman. All this and gas rationing trivia as well. There’s only one guestion left and it’s WHY AM I THE ONLY PERSON ON THIS BUS?!

    CeCe Pleasants joins the show to help us answer several powerful questions: Is there such a thing as a perfect baseball movie? What makes a gal an All-American? (And how that has changed since the 1940s!) What makes a Coke so powerful? How is Tom Hanks so good? Is Dottie the best big sister ever? Sit back and enjoy as today we dive deep into Dottie’s motivations throughout the movie.
