    The Opposite of Love

    When a woman suddenly stops showing up for work, a welfare check at her home raises more questions than answers. Detective Sergeant Laura arrives to find a guarded husband whose account is filled with inconsistencies. As the missing person investigation deepens, Laura must trust her instincts, keep a potential suspect talking, and carefully piece together what really happened in a case that shocked a small, tight-knit community. Laura Price spent her law enforcement career asking questions, following clues, and discovering that on a small island, things are rarely as simple as they first appear. Her 23-year career began as a reserve deputy and took her through corrections, patrol, investigations, and supervision before retiring from the Island County Sheriff’s Office in 2022. Laura spent much of her investigative career working child abuse and sex crimes, but in a small agency, detectives rarely have the luxury of staying in one lane. When a homicide or other major case came along, everyone rolled up their sleeves and went to work. Along the way, she learned to always look in the corners for the clues. These days, Laura has traded the radio and badge for a somewhat quieter life—although she still has a natural curiosity, a tendency to ask a lot of questions, and an appreciation for a good story. https://quince.com/small Get the best deals on Ember at https://ember.com/small and let them know Small Town Dicks sent you.

    Guard the Yard: Akil Baddoo of the Milwaukee Brewers

    Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Akil Baddoo joins Yeardley Smith for a candid and joyful conversation about confidence, resilience, and learning how to stay grounded through the inevitable highs and lows of professional baseball. Akil traces his love of the game back to hitting baseballs with his dad in the backyard, breaking a window before he was even old enough for Little League, and hitting his first home run at five years old. He talks about the confidence his mother instilled in him, knowing from a young age that he wanted to play professionally, and why he never believed in having a backup plan. He also opens up about the setbacks that tested that confidence, including Tommy John surgery, a grueling rehabilitation, the loss of his brother, and the uncertainty of what would come next. Akil shares how journaling, meditation, and learning to control his thoughts helped him through those moments and prepared him for an unforgettable start to his Major League career: a home run on the first pitch he saw, followed by a grand slam and a walk-off hit in his first three games. They also talk about handling failure in a sport where even the best players fail most of the time, staying connected to the joy that made him love baseball in the first place, and the importance of family, community, and his Ghanaian and Trinidadian roots. Plus, Akil shares why he opened The Fade Lounge in Atlanta, his plans to give back to his former high school, and his lesser-known talent for roller skating. Then Akil takes on the Last At-Bat, answering rapid-fire questions about his favorite Beyoncé song, the toughest pitcher he has ever faced, the career he might have pursued outside of baseball, his 200-pair sneaker collection, and the person he trusts most in the world.
