2024/08/20

As daughters of fathers, we will defend the right of Mets' star J.D. Martinez to like photos of Sydney Sweeney's butt on Instagram in the days leading up to the birth of his first child, a baby girl. Mets are girl dads!! Mets don't hate women, they support them!!This week on Hits Different, Kaitlyn and guest host Ellen Cushing discuss the Mets fans on Twitter who believe themselves to be psychics, the Mets fans who are actually psychics (us), and what flavor we would make a Mets-themed breakfast

20. The Mets' Nightmare Road Trip is Blissfully Over

2024/08/13

This week on Hits Different, we are joined again by our amazing guest host Ellen Cushing and we somehow find the time to talk about World War II not once but twice. Who will stop us? For the record, David is alive and well and he's issued some corrections on last week's show. We regret the errors. Out of solidarity with the New York Mets and their ridiculously long and upsetting stretch of travel we were actually forced to make this episode almost two hours long...Sadly, the guys didn't fare too

2024/08/07

We're trying something with the episode title this week... some people enjoy a curiosity gap! And for a little insight into the Hits Different Business Operations, our most downloaded episode yet was the one titled "Bryce Harper Spit on WHAT?" We know the Hits Different listeners are not perverts, so we know they weren't clicking because they were titillated. They were clicking because they are intelligent and like to know the answers to questions! I'm sure they can't wait to find out what the

2024/07/31

Hits Different has returned from the All-Star Break with MUCH to discuss. (First of all, I had a dream about Adam Ottavino) This week, we've got a very special guest host ELLEN CUSHING, fresh off of a red-eye flight from Anchorage, Alaska, where she took in a crosstown rival game nearly as thrilling as the two in New York City last week and also heard a little bit about a shocking U.S. government action to secretly replace the sun. Thank you Ellen for your service!!!Thank you as always to Producer

17. Hits Different Draft Based on Names Only

Hits Different ·

2024/07/16

The first half of the Mets' season is over and they're now in a Wild Card spot, leading to rampant speculation by sports writers who may in fact be chatbots that Pete Alonso will NOT be traded at the deadline. Duh!! We never even worried about it. What are we worried about? Hardly anything. Just Gunnar Henderson's Leonardo-DiCaprio-in-Django-Unchained cosplay and the future of Joey "Fuego" Lucchesi who was designated for assignment by the Mets last week and has since cleared waivers. So, he's still

2024/07/09

How many hot dogs did you have on the Fourth of July? Sadly, I (Kaitlyn) only had three. But! One of them was the best hot dog ever made. We discuss this and much else on this week's spicy mid-summer episode of Hits Different. Kodai Senga looked fit as a fiddle playing for the Coney Island Franks (special promotional version of the Brooklyn Cyclones) and on Friday, July 5th (legally still part of July 4th), Jeff McNeil homered off of Paul Skenes??? Nothing else happened in that game as far as anyone

15. Grimace Fever is Sweeping the Nation

Hits Different ·

2024/07/02

How long can this "vibes" thing last? At least until the Mets win the World Series! This week, downtown Buffalo was lit up in Grimace purple and the Seattle Mariners were bumping Mets' star Jose Iglesias' new single "OMG" in their clubhouse. The Mets are worldwide, luv. David and Kaitlyn could not let the wild events of the tail end of Pride Month go unremarked upon, so they struggled through absolutely demonic recording and production issues caused by Kaitlyn's decision to be in Salt Lake City,

14. Bryce Harper Spit on WHAT?

Hits Different ·

2024/06/25

It's hot!! It's sweaty! It's sexy! In Syracuse, they cut their sleeves off! In Arlington, the Gay Mets crushed the Texas Rangers, famously the only team in Major League Baseball that doesn't celebrate Pride Month in any way (God said: "losers"). Then Bryce Harper took out his fist and gave it the old "Hawk Tuah" on national television. Boys!! We're blushing!! This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn discuss the dank parking garage that the New York Yankees play in for some reason and we learn

13. The Gay Mets are Kind of Unstoppable

Hits Different ·

2024/06/18

This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn are tired but wired. Since the beginning of Pride Month, the Mets have been terrorizing the National League and there's NOTHING anybody can do about it. Mets are undefeated since Grimace threw out the first pitch and Harrison Bader warmed up in a pink crop-top. Mets are undefeated since J.D. Martinez hit his first-ever walk-off home run and Jose Iglesias gave him a big smooch on the cheek. Mets are dressed like fancy cowboys getting on their plane to

12. It's a Carnival of Americana

Hits Different ·

2024/06/11

This week on Hits Different, we're talking about our favorite boy band the New York Mets traveling to London for a two-game series! It was, as the MLB put it, a Carnival of Americana. The Mets won the second game in spectacular fashion but please don't let that distract from the fact that Philadelphia Philly Garrett Stubbs must face consequences for his despicable actions.Meanwhile, Kaitlyn traveled to Dallas and saw a different type of Carnival of Americana (7/11 "Lone Star Slice" pizza, JFK murder

11. "I Really Don't Necessarily Know What to Think"

Hits Different ·

2024/06/04

Everybody is talking about the Mets! But it's not an "all publicity is good publicity" situation, necessarily. In the words of Pete Alonso, we really don't necessarily know what to think. This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn apologize to their listeners for declaring Harrison Bader the King of New York. He actually isn't King of New York and he's unable to count. We also give our review of the rainbow cookie egg roll at Citi Field. I forgot to mention that immediately upon purchase, a

Hits Different ·

2024/05/28

At the end of Mets' fifth-straight loss, SNY's Gary Cohen said "the sun will come up tomorrow, as difficult as that may be to realize." And the sun did come up, but we weren't surprised because we never stopped believing. This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn talk about one of the worst, weirdest weeks in the history of baseball—we are an anti-math podcast but this superlative is mathematically PROVEN. Then, of course, we talk about what came at the end of the week: A comeback victory for

9. Let's Go Meadowlarks

Hits Different ·

2024/05/20

This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn have their LAST CONVERSATION about Pete Alonso trade rumors. We're never talking about it again. Most of the rest of the episode is about the Don DeLillo straight-to-DVD movie Game 6 starring Michael Keaton and Robert Downey Jr. I think everyone can agree that the actual baseball we watched this week was not worth discussing.If it ain't broke, don't fix it. But it is broke—that's why the Mets summoned Mark Vientos and Joey Lucchesi from Syracuse in a

2024/05/14

Disclaimer: This week's episode of Hits Different was recorded PRIOR to the tragic events of Monday night aka "Bark at the Park" night at Citi Field, when the Mets lost to the Phillies due to a series of unpredictable horrors. David and Kaitlyn had no idea that was coming. And that's baseball! [Ellie Goulding voice] Anything can happen! This week on Hits Different, we are instead talking about a beautiful Sunday night victory over the Evil Atlanta Braves, in which the sinister ESPN broadcasters

7. Florida!!!

Hits Different ·

2024/05/07

This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn are, unavoidably: forlorn, wistful, unmoored, hungover, etc.! We have that in common with the Mets and with the heroine of Nancy Lemann's 1992 sexy baseball novel Sportsman's Paradise, the first book in the Hits Different sexy baseball novel book club. (I recorded myself reading like three pages of it in the middle of this episode for some reason.) You can guess what else there is to say this week after the Mets dropped three games to the not-very-good

2024/04/29

This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn talk "football stickers" and Bend it Like Beckham, two of the best things about these two Americans' childhoods even though both are incredibly British. The episode goes on forever because it's been two weeks and we have much to say to each other.It's all connected, and here's how: After a four-game set with the Cubs, the Mets will be going to Taylor Swift's "Florida!!!" to play the Rays. Guess who listened to Taylor Swift when he was in high school and

2024/04/23

This week on Hits Different, producer Nathan phones in and fills in for David as a guest co-host. Nathan has been watching baseball at 4 in the morning while in Europe—this has not affected his performance on his work trip!! (Please excuse his audio quality) We talk about Reed Garrett, former Rochester Red Wing, current Mets GUY with the most strikeouts for a relief pitcher in the whole MLB. But why is his Instagram private, preventing us from learning more, more, more? Also: What is wrong with

4. The Evil Atlanta Braves Are Shaking

Hits Different ·

2024/04/16

This week on Hits Different, we are striking an inadvertently ascetic tone—i.e. there's no groovy intro music for this episode because the guy in the booth is on a work trip to Europe and was therefore asleep when I would have liked him to be editing the show. Absence makes the heart grow fonder!! And we press on, as we always do. We were confused by all of the tweets regarding Nick Castellanos and OJ Simpson, but we got to the bottom of it. We were afraid that we weren't going to be inspired by

3. Baseball Will Not Kill Anyone

Hits Different ·

2024/04/09

This week on Hits Different: David was at the office in Manhattan during the rarest of all things, a New York City earthquake. Kaitlyn was in the path of totality of a once-in-a-lifetime solar eclipse. Yet, we knew nothing, and chattered blithely away about baseball cards and "ham-and-eggers" and whether Taylor Swift should have dated Bryce Harper, totally unaware that the Mets were about to win the first game of a four-game series in Atlanta in a very spectacular and frankly unexpected fashion

2. You Can't Lose 'Em All (Unless You Can)

Hits Different ·

2024/04/02

We waited all winter for this. Every time we got swaddled up to stumble down the frigid city streets, we said "baseball will come back, baseball will come back, at least one day baseball will come back." And somewhere, a monkey's paw curled...This week on Hits Different, two fans of the orange and blue New York team talk about a three-game losing streak (which would become four shortly after taping) and exchange groans and bone-deep shudders. The only way things could possibly get worse is if time
