Ballpark Drama: Karen vs. Kid (Hour 1)

In a lively episode, John and Gordy dive into a heartwarming baseball saga turned viral sensation. A young Phillies fan's birthday was nearly spoiled when a woman, dubbed 'Karen,' snatched a home run ball from him, igniting outrage and memes online. The Marlins and Phillies teams, along with Milwaukee's Marcus Lemonis, stepped up, showering the kid with gifts, a signed bat, and even a World Series trip plus an RV. Conversations also veered into civil war speculations, voter machine tampering scandals, and China-US infrastructure disparities. All wrapped in humor and local charm, this episode is a rollercoaster of emotions and insights.
