On the eve of the United States' Semisesquicentennial, Richard brings you this special ep. He eulogizes three recently-closed Echo Park eateries with strong associations with Dodger Stadium: The Brite Spot, Taix, and Burrito King. He breaks down the All Star Game, and the Dodgers connections thereto. And he proffers an interpretation of Dave Roberts' successful managerial methods, with Doc logging his 1000th victory as manager of the Dodgers. (The quickest ever to get there.)

During the Dodgers 4-3 win over the Minnesota Twins on Wednesday, Dodgers backup catcher, rookie Dalton Rushing, had what must have been one of the worst games of his life, including going 0-4, with three strikeouts, and having some significant miscommunications with his battery-mate, starting pitcher (and global superstar) Shohei Ohtani, who is vying to win a Cy Young Award this year. The game has become the talk of the baseball world. Richard breaks it down for you.

With a monsoon rolling through the ballpark in Pittsburgh, a group of rowdy Pirate fans in the right field stands removed their shirts, and taunted Shohei Ohtani, as he stepped into the batters box for his fourth at-bat of the day. And then, the baseball gods intervened on behalf of the Dodgers, who went on to score 10 runs in their biggest single inning of offense in almost a decade. Then, as the rain cleared, a double rainbow filled the sky, framing the bright yellow Roberto Clemente Bridge and the downtown skyline. Also: Freddie Freeman's 2,500th hit! And: LGBTQ+ night at Dodger Stadium.

Richard and Chef Wes meet up in Griffith Park to co-raw-dog an ep about this week's Dodgers vs. Padres series, that rivalry, fandom in general, and much more, in this mega-chill ep. Richard also reports on the fires on Santa Rosa Island, off the coast. This one is chill and different, folks. Be well.

The Dodgers have been slumping. But with the help of key players like Shohei Ohtani (and the co-hosts of DBD, of course) that could be changing... in the midst of a historic Dodgers losing streak, Richard and Chef Wes cruise the streets of L.A. in Wes' 1979 C10 pickup truck, "The Mamalona," and stop in for tacos at Birrieria Nochistlan in Boyle Heights, to eat their feelings -- and to discuss Dem Bums' team-wide slump, which is hopefully ending, after a 4-game losing streak skid, losing to the rival Giants, no less.

He calls opposing players names... He slides hard into second base... which is disallowed in today's game. He gets drilled in the ribs by fastballs... and when he does, he hardly blinks.
Is Dalton Rushing the most hated man in baseball?
Dalton Rushing, the Dodgers backup catcher, is off to a historically great start to the 2026 season, offensively speaking. At the same time, he's attracting even more attention than that merits, going "viral" on baseball social media viral for some allegedly untoward comments and epithets hurled at opposing players.
Richard dives in, breaks it down, gets into the backstory, and all that good stuff.

In this quasi-"Raw Dog" live-produced ep, Richard seamlessly weaves narratives from the last week of Dodgers baseball into the story of Game 3 of the Giants-Dodgers series, riffing and producing live, during Thursday's ballgame, with the Dodgers in the crosshairs, in danger of getting swept by their rivals to the North. This episode also covers: Shohei Ohtani's 53-game on-base streak, pitching pro's and cons, and "the sky is falling" thoughts from your host.

This last week, we saw a 2025 World Series re-match, with the Dodgers taking two out of three games in a series against the Blue Jays in Toronto. Sadly, Dodgers infielder (and 2025 World Series hero) Miguel Rojas lost his father while the Dodgers were in Toronto. And Blue Jays manager John Schneider blew his top over a ticky-tack balk call, and was ejected, in a classic display of Baseball Theatre. Richard delivers these headlines, in DBD style.
