OUR FIRST PODCAST IS LIVE and We’re Starting With Glove Care

This is it. The very first Dingerz Nation Podcast is officially live.

We’ve been talking about this for a long time, and we wanted our first episode to do two things:

Introduce what Dingerz Nation is becoming
Share something useful that every baseball player actually needs

So we’re starting with glove care.

Why Glove Care Matters

Your glove isn’t just gear. It’s part of how you play.

A broken-in glove that’s taken care of properly can make catches cleaner, throws smoother, and confidence higher on the field. A glove that’s ignored, over-oiled, or mistreated can fall apart fast and actually hurt your game.

No hype. No shortcuts. Just real advice from a youth player who actually uses his glove every day.

Why We Chose This as Episode One

Dingerz Nation is shifting from a magazine to a youth baseball media platform and community resource. The podcast is led by a real youth player, and that matters.

Glove care is something:

Every player deals with
Almost every player learns the wrong way
Coaches expect kids to know but rarely explain fully

This episode sets the tone for what’s coming next. Baseball topics explained clearly, honestly, and from a kid’s perspective.

What’s Coming Next

Future episodes will cover:

Training and conditioning for youth players
Tryouts and team expectations
Confidence, mindset, and pressure
Equipment reviews
Interviews with coaches, trainers, and local baseball businesses
Community spotlights across the Houston area and beyond

We’re also building out the Dingerz Nation directory, where families can find trusted baseball resources and businesses that support youth players.
