    2024 NYE State of the Site with D.J. and Ralph

    2024 NYE State of the Site with D.J. and Ralph

    It's been well over a year since the last episode of Stadium Scene's Main Event. In this special edition we talk about what's been up, officially welcome our long-time friend Ralph Schudel to the team, and go over the direction of Stadium Scene in 2024 and beyond.

    Initially, we talked about 2023 and how the law known as "Section 230" and the formal end of the COVID-19 pandemic shifted our strategy. Had the US Supreme Court overturned Section 230, it likely would have resulted in us having to shut down. We go into why.

    The big changes for 2024 include:
    - No longer taking on new blog partners (our current blog partners will be supported as long as they continue to run their blogs)
    - Rebranding of our podcast section to Stadium Scene Radio which includes a plan to introduce live radio in late 2024
    - Continued growth of the Stadium Scene TV channel with sports talk shows, Wednesday Night Dash, and a new IndyCar-themed iRacing league that will debut in February as long as the iRacing/IndyCar licensing issues are resolved by then.

    In part two of the episode, Ralph and D.J. play True/False with sports stories that could happen in 2024. Does Messi "slow down", do the Las Vegas Aces repeat as WNBA champions, and much more!

    Thank you again for your ongoing support of Stadium Scene and we look forward to serving you with new content in 2024!

    Ten Minutes With... Joshua & Trevor From The Two Pointers Podcast

    Ten Minutes With... Joshua & Trevor From The Two Pointers Podcast

    Yes indeed, we still record this show!  Kate had a scheduling conflict, but D.J. runs the show (long as usual when he is by himself) and is joined by Joshua Gupton and Trevor Everette of The Two Pointers Podcast!  The Two Pointers Podcast is the latest member of the Stadium Scene Network and they have easily a top five epic story about how the two of them met dating back to elementary school.  It's very clear their love for all things college and pro basketball led to the creation and the success of this show, which is about to reach the 100-episode milestone.

    We talk about how they were a "Pandemic Podcast", although they started much later than the usual podcasts, some early luck with the pilot episode that is the exception to the rule, and how they kept things going after most of the podcasts created at the start of the pandemic shut down and were never heard from again.

    We close out the show talking about a really good piece of advice that they wish they knew when they were starting their show.

    Be sure to check out this new episode and don't forget to check out The Two Pointers Podcast where you download your favorite podcasts.

    Ten Minutes With... Gianna Belcastro of Women's Sports Matter Podcast

    Ten Minutes With... Gianna Belcastro of Women's Sports Matter Podcast

    D.J. and Kate are back with the second "Ten Minutes With..." episode of 2022.  Yes, we know the episode is 24 minutes long.  Just like the Big Ten Conference, we cannot count either.  

    Today we are joined by Gianna Belcastro, host of "Women's Sports Matter Podcast".  Gianna is another "pandemic created podcast" that has continued on even after most of the pandemic created podcasts have ended.  They feature some of the top women and women's sports leagues in the world along with interview coaches, players, and other important people in the sports.  

    In addition, we discuss the challenges of being a woman/non-binary person in sports and the importance of discussing and bringing to light scandals such as the NWSL player abuse scandal and how they went for so long without the general public being aware.    Gianna also discusses being invited to podcast row of the United Soccer Coaches Convention and performing a live audience broadcast at a convention just outside of Chicago.  A very packed 24 minutes with some incredible deep discussion.

    Play x Play - Discussing "Lucky Bastard" by Joe Buck

    Play x Play - Discussing "Lucky Bastard" by Joe Buck

    In our next episode of "Play x Play," Kate and D.J. discuss "Lucky Bastard" by Joe Buck.  Pretty much all of us have seen Joe Buck call either an NFL or MLB game for FOX at some point in the last 30 years and he is often one of the more criticized announcers of our generation.  That being said, we discuss the book and overall thought it was very open, honest, and entertaining to the point that when it was released in 2016, several people had a change of heart about him.  

    In the episode, we go over some of our favorite chapters of the book, comment on his footnotes, his relationship with his famous father, Jack Buck, how a cheap plastic batting helmet may have saved his life, and talk about his unusual family situation growing up.  For September, we will be reading "It's Game Time Folks - The Quest for 30" by our good friend Mark Darden.  Be sure to check out both books on Amazon by clicking the links below.  

    Your purchase will pay us a small commission that helps keep Stadium Scene TV running and allows us to continue to grow and expand our operation.
