Blazing Paddles - A Pickleball Podcast
Join us, John and Karen, for a married couple's take on Pickleball. Avoid "Pickleball Divorce," saddle up and have a cocktail, have a laugh, and enjoy guests and influencers in this unbelievable explosion of a sport the likes of which we've never seen.
Let's talk about the impact pickleball is having on our culture. From Boomers to Zoomers, every generation is discovering a new passion. A game that wasn't on the map three years ago now has millionaires playing, billionaires jousting, and people scrambling for some piece of the pickleball pie.
Put your ears on and have a listen, you'll be glad you did.

Why We Don't Trust The Media
Do I dare say it? "Fake News"? It's a term forever tied to our 45th President but it's not a novel concept. There has been a growing distrust of the media that you can trace back to 1972 when you had military leaders actively accusing the venerable Walter Cronkite of biased journalism that undermined the American conflict in Vietnam.
Let's be honest, it goes back even further - one of the more iconic photos of the 20th century is Harry Truman holding up the headlines of the Daily Chicago Tribune which proclaimed "DEWEY DEFEATS TRUMAN".
As long as humans are....human (?) we will have biases that leak into our every being - imagine being a talking head with a vested interest in one side of the story and being tasked with proclaiming the inherent goodness of the other side. Yes it's different for professional journalists, but therein lies a big part of the problem. "Journalists" are a dying breed.
Join me and media watchdog Matt Moseley as we discuss the very real problem of a corrupt media.
