Named a "Best New Podcast" in 2024 by Audible and Vulture. "This is no simple sports-recap podcast. Instead, each episode plays a bit like a dispatch from a foreign land — in this case Dodgers fandom — in which a local correspondent (that would be Parks) walks you through present concerns." (Vulture) Noted for its storytelling, sound design, and original music. A love letter to baseball and radio by a born-and-raised Angeleno.

    "The Complaint Against Ippei"
    Nov 28 2025

    With illegal gambling back in baseball's news this month — with two MLB players allegedly aiding in an illegal gambling fix worth hundreds of thousands of dollars — we revisit the Ippei Mizuhara gambling scandal that dominated the news in Dodgerland (and beyond) back in the Spring of 2024, when the first episodes of Dodger Blue Dream were publishing. The first of two episodes, "The Talented Mr. Ippei," was published on the feed last week. Start with that episode, and then move onto this one: "The Complain Against Ippei."

    A 37-page federal criminal complaint answers questions about how Ippei Mizuhara, Shohei Ohtani's former interpreter, allegedly stole $16 million from Ohtani to pay debts Mizuhara had accrued with an allegedly illegal bookmaker.

It's worth listening even if your aren't a Dodger fan. Honestly you don't even need to like baseball. Richard Parks puts more work into a single episode of this (and his other show, Richard's Famous Food Podcast) than most others put into an entire season, possibly their whole careers.
