Named a "Best New Podcast" in 2024 by Vulture. A documentary chronicling the 2024 Los Angeles Dodgers baseball season, from start to finish, by writer, documentarian, and lifelong Dodger fan Richard Parks III. For fans, casual fans, and non-fans alike. "Perfectly inside-the-outside." (Aquarium Drunkard) "This is no simple sports-recap podcast. Instead, each episode plays a bit like a dispatch from a foreign land — in this case Dodgers fandom — in which a local correspondent (that would be Pa ...

If you’ve been listening to Transmissions for a while, you've noticed how often host Jason P. Woodbury brings up “time” when talking about music. And while he's certainly apt to talk about music in spiritual or "out there" terms, songs are in some ways literal time machines: they can take you back to your own past or in the case of traditional musi…

From early mystic folk inclinations to more fried and psychedelic work, Ben Chasny's Six Organs of Admittance project has never settled into an easy, definable zone. But 2024 sees the Six Organs sonic universe expanding kaleidoscopically, even by Chasny's prodigious standards. First was Time Is Glass, an album that documented his return to Humboldt…

On Friday night in Arizona, after giving up a homerun to Corbin Carroll, Clayton Kershaw unceremoniously walked off the mound, into the dugout, and disappeared into the darkened tunnel to the visiting clubhouse. And I remember thinking, "I might have just watched Clayton Kershaw throw the last pitch of his Hall of Fame career."…
