What a night! In this episode, we recap our unforgettable experience sitting in the Padres CEO seats, where we had the chance to connect on future PR opportunities and meet Michael King’s amazing family. We break down the Padres’ sweep of the Giants, preview the upcoming Dodgers series, and dive into the rising stardom of Michael King. A pitcher who’s quickly becoming one of our absolute favorites.

From his inspiring journey to the big leagues to the joy of meeting his sweet family (yes, we’re already planning a playdate!), we highlight why Michael King is truly the “King of the Hill.”

If you’re a Padres fan or just love baseball stories with heart, you won’t want to miss this one.

Episode 11: X-Man
Life has been chaotic and we were running on fumes for this one, but the Padres bats are still red-hot! We celebrate a string of wins, Laureano’s clutch walk-off, and the new guys stepping up as we battle for first place in the NL West. Plus, we highlight Xander Bogaerts’ inspiring comeback, his fascinating background, and the fun fact that he has a twin and speaks four languages. Baseball, laughs, and a little life chaos, all in one episode.

Episode 10: Steph’s Open Letter to Díaz – Trades, Sweeping the Mets, and More!

In this milestone 10th episode, Steph gets real with a heartfelt open letter to Edwin Díaz—yes, that Díaz—apologizing for all the past slander (well… most of it). We also dive into the latest trade deadline chaos, celebrate sweeping the Mets, and hand out another round of superlatives with our signature blend of chaos and insight.

Episode 9: Slams, Superlatives & Surprise Packages
Jackson Merrill’s journey from teen prodigy to Padres starter gets the spotlight this week, along with back-to-back grand slams from Manny Machado and Xander Bogaerts. We talk trade deadline rumors, hand out midseason superlatives, and unbox some unexpected PR packages—because apparently we’re on someone’s list.

It’s baseball, parenting, and a little bit of influencer chaos. Hit play, hit follow, and let’s ride.

The All-Star break is over and your girls are back—and so are the Padres. We’re recapping the dramatic walk-off home run to close out the first half, celebrating our return to the Top 10 in the power rankings, and sharing why (for once) we’re both feeling optimistic.

We also look ahead to the trade deadline and what the Padres need to make a serious push. Plus, we dive into the emotional and powerful story of Adrián Morejón, from defecting from Cuba as a teenager to becoming a key part of the Padres bullpen. It’s heartbreaking, it’s inspiring, and it’s the kind of story that reminds us why we love this game.

The Midsummer Classic is almost here and we’re breaking it all down—Padres style. We celebrate our All-Stars heading to Arlington (spoiler: we’re proud moms), dive into MLB’s collective bargaining drama (salary caps & floors), and discuss the league-wide baby boom—yes, everyone’s having babies and we’re not mad about it. Plus: what even is a sac bunt?

It's baseball, parenting, chaos, and All-Star energy wrapped into one episode. Let’s gooo!

Episode 6 is jam-packed like a bases-loaded bottom of the 9th. We recap the last four series—including the latest chapter of Padres-Dodgers chaos—with Shildt and Roberts both getting the boot and Jomboy giving it the full voiceover treatment. We gush over our boy José Iglesias, who’s officially in his superstar era (yes, that José Iglesias—you might want to check Spotify). Plus, we break down his wild ride to the bigs, his off-field talent, and why the vibes around the Padres—and MLB in general—have us cautiously hopeful.

In Week 5 of Padres & Playdates, we break down the recent series against the Giants, Brewers, and—you guessed it—the “not our rivals” Dodgers. We talk stolen bases, blowouts, and that first NL series loss at Petco. Plus, we dive into the unspoken (and very real) beef with LA, from spring training to social media smack. Padres fans, this one's for you—unless you’re still pretending it’s “just another team.”

This week on Padres & Playdates, we’re lighting it up like it's the Fourth of July:

🔥 Manny Machado gets his flowers after a clutch week
🎸 Jose Iglesias is literally playing like he's on tour
😡 Anais goes OFF about pitchers not being penalized for hitting batters
