2022 Recap - The Best of HR Hardball
Show Notes

Okay Hardballers, this pushed me to the ends of my editorial bandwidth, but with the help of our eldest son Jack, I think we have put together a fun end-of-year recap episode for your enjoyment. Fresh off the news that our little pod made the top 50% of all podcasts via Buzzsprout, we wanted to offer our current listeners a quick trip down memory lane. And for you future listeners, this should give you the overall vibe of the show.

Two newsworthy items this year for HR Hardball: I added a new co-host and we identified a new flagship sponsor. Full transparency, I'm sleeping with the co-host, but that seems acceptable after 23 years of marriage. The move developed organically as Karen joined me for a few episodes and the chemistry makes for a better show. You'll notice the new trend in our interviews - everyone just loves Karen and her "great questions." I'm becoming 2nd banana on my own show! Our new sponsor, dink.pro, founded just last year, is the first dedicated pickleball apparel company born and bred in the great state of Texas - btw, if you're not on the pickleball train yet, what in the hell are you waiting for?
