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.

Subscribe now. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 392 of the Battery Power podcast. I am your host,

Brad Rowland, coming to you on a Monday evening this time around March 27th. We're almost opening day, and I am joined on today's podcast and as usual by Scott Coleman. Hello, sir. Hey, Brad, good to be on with you. Nice to have some real life baseball games right around the corner. And before we start, I actually want to throw you a little bit of curveball. I did not prep you for this. I'm going to put you on the spot, but it's, I think you'll

like the question. Is this the most anticipated brave season this century? Ooh, that is a good question.

And yeah, there was not warning on this. So Scott pulling tricks on me early in the podcast i think that might be true yeah i mean i'll let you

gather your thoughts because i was thinking about a little bit earlier but um clearly this is a

really really good team um they have two legitimate si young candidates they have three maybe

four legitimate MVP candidates in the lineup.

The bullpen might be the best in the game, at least based on the projections. So I was trying

to come up with the team, I guess last year with coming off the World Series. But even then,

there were some questions and it was a team that won 88 games the year before.

So I'm kind of in that camp, but I'm curious to get your take.

Yeah, I think it probably is.

I'm trying not to be revisionist and avoiding old stuff.

You know, you've been a carmast team for a long time.
