Bumpy Roads and Beautiful Places: A (mostly) Baseball Podcast

Join The Ladies Who Like Baseball and Erika to talk about the Fall Classic. We recap the NLCS and the ALCS (did the haunted hotel factor in?!) and then get into all the weird but wonderfully awesome fun facts surrounding this World Series. (Including the Will Smith Factor).

And in non-baseball discussions, we get into current reads and holiday movies. Also, there is a slight tangent about group projects that everyone can relate to.

October 9, 2019: Howie Kendrick hits the GRANDEST of slams and gets the Nationals over the Game 5 curse. Join The Ladies Who Like Baseball & Erika to discuss that moment and all their favorite moments in Nationals history.

(And no, the entire episode is NOT about Howie...The Ladies limited themselves!)

Feel free to share your favorite moments with us too! @LONTDC1 or @UVAHooGirl

The Ladies Who Like Baseball and Erika discuss the 2026 ALDS and NLDS, as well as the upcoming ALCS between the Guardians and Tampa Bay Ray and the NLCS between the Brewers and the Dodgers.

We also discuss a haunted hotel in Milwaukee and the worst post season bracket of all time.

The Ladies Who Like Baseball and Erika discuss the 2026 season, including the best and worst moments. The Ladies also breakdown the actual analytics of the Notting Hill gif used in an effort to help the Nats win games. Also, Erika explains her newly adopted love of European soccer and her new team. Finally, The Ladies attempt to get into Gilmore Girls, while Erika balks at the topic. (No matter, because we're still getting into the debate of which boyfriend was best!).

Welcome everyone! In this first episode, we introduce ourselves and the podcast, giving a brief overview of the plans for this thing. Then we get right into discussing the last series for the 2026 Nationals season. As far as the non-baseball content in this episode: stick around for discussions on books, murderous bugs, and how sometimes friends shouldn't panic because of someone else's vacation.
