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.

Welcome to The Daily Hammer, your daily news source when it comes to the Atlanta Braves as part of the Talking Chop Podcast Network.

My name is Sean Coleman.

Hope wherever you are, and wherever you're listening, you have an outstanding day starting off.

Listen, the thing about it is we want to talk with you about baseball news, but there's nothing to report. We're starting out the lockout. It's unfortunate.

It's happening. We don't know when an end's going to be in sight, but at the very

least, we've still got content here for you. And I'm excited to start a bit of a podcast

series with one of my favorites when it comes to Braves' Twitter.

He's at Braves Herbert. He was one of the very kind folks that helped me get into talking chop,

and he also is a co-host with Dylan Short on the Platinum Sumbrero podcast. Adam Herbert,

better known as Doc Herbert, has been kind enough to join me for this show of The Daily Hammer.

Doc, how are you, sir?

I am marvelous, Sean.

Thank you so much for having me.

The real question is, how are you doing today?
