BONUS - The Parents Behind the Pod: Meet the Original Support Team of Dinks on Tap
Descripción del Episodio
Ever wonder what your parents would say if they were handed a microphone and asked to review your sports career? Would they praise your hustle… or finally reveal that one time you blamed the wind for a missed shot? In this special bonus episode, an extension of Episode 38, we invite the ultimate behind-the-scenes MVPs onto the mic: our parents.
This isn’t your typical lineup of sports interviews. Instead of talking with pros or coaches, we bring on the original supporters who shaped our journey through youth sports, competitive sports, and into podcasting. Through funny and heartfelt family stories, we reflect on how sports parenting, teamwork, and a strong sports mindset shaped who we are today, on and off the pickleball court.
You’ll hear:
- The hilarious and heartfelt family stories our parents share about raising kids in youth sports and surviving the chaos of early competitive sports
- What sports parenting really looked like from their perspective—from car rides and tournaments to the occasional ref-yelling moment
- How team culture and early lessons in athlete development shaped our confidence, leadership, and love for sports
- The role supportive parents and strong sports families play in building resilience and a lifelong sports mindset
- Why the friendships formed through the pickleball community can last just as long as the sports memories themselves
- How storytelling, laughter, and a little nostalgia make for unforgettable podcast storytelling
Whether you grew up in youth sports, are raising future athletes, or simply love the stories that shape the people behind the paddles, this episode is full of laughs, perspective, and a whole lot of gratitude.
So grab your paddle, pour something refreshing, and join us for a heartfelt episode of our favorite pickleball podcast. And hey… after listening, you might just want to call your parents and thank them for all those early morning rides to practice. Cheers! 🥂🏓
Cheers,
Casie & Lauren

Blunt Force Trauma
By shows
Blunt Force Trauma is a new serialised investigation into the unsolved murder of Faithe Ely, from EchoSpace and host Troy Taylor (from award winning podcast Among The Missing). On March 28, 2021, Faith Ely was found lifeless on the side of a dark Oklahoma highway, her death quickly being ruled a hit and run. But the evidence doesn’t line up. The injuries don’t tell a clear story. And the more you dig, the harder it becomes to make sense of the official narrative. What should be a straightforward accident begins to feel anything but…
