I'm Ashley C. Ford, and I host Into the Mix, a Ben & Jerry's podcast about joy and justice produced with Vox Creative.

For the past few years, I've seen a lot of hand-wringing about Governor Ron DeSantis' agenda to end what he calls woke indoctrination.

But we wanted to know, what does that mean?

And how does this agenda actually affect the people living and working there?

Especially those who have benefited from the diversity, equity, and inclusion programs

that DeSantis' policies would uproot.

Check out the latest mini-series on Into the Mix

of Ben and Jerry's podcast.

And welcome to episode 305 of the Talking Chop podcast. I am your host,

Brad Rowland, on a Sunday evening in mid-September, and I'm joined for what I would describe as probably

like a semi-annual visit by Zach Dillard of Ballou Sports South. Is that correct? Is it

Bally-Sport-South, Zach? is that where you are now? Valley Sports South, semi-annual visit.

It all checks out.

That all makes sense.

I decided to give Scott and Eric the night slash week off and Zach.

It was long overdue.

I was saying before we started recording, I haven't seen Zach in a long time, which is a little bit strange.

But we'll fix that in the near future, and it was time to talk about some Braves with stuff with you,

because it's been pretty interesting, all things considered.

Never a dull moment with this team this year.

I guess I'll ask you this, is that sort of track?
