Bill Plunkett is an award-winning sportswriter who covers the Los Angeles Dodgers beat for the Orange County Register, and has written about baseball in Southern California for nearly 25 years, including a separate stint on the Los Angeles Angels beat. He is a Hall of Fame voter whose work has appeared in Baseball America and Baseball Digest and he is a frequent guest on the MLB Network, ESPN, and SportsNet LA.  His new book is L.A. Story:  Shohei Ohtani, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and a Season for the Ages.  It is an in-depth look at the 2024 season which had drama, records, magic, and ended with a World Series Championship for the Dodgers.

Tearl Dunlap is the TD behind the extremely popular award-winning sauces and rubs of TD's Brew and BBQ.   Wonderful products, an incredible work ethic, and an uncanny ability to sell have combined to make him a leader in the food industry in New Mexico and the surrounding area.  His goal is to grow his brand and become a household name across the country.  Barbecue is not his only passion as he is also a rabid Atlanta Braves fan and he enjoys dishing out some good trash talk.  For more information on TD's Brew & BBQ and to order their products go to https://tdsbrewandbbq.com/
