Episode 224 | January 22, 2026: Huh. They Went Down the PDP Route.
After explicitly warning people not to "go down that PDP route," the Colorado Rockies hired a guy named Paul DePodesta to run baseball operations. Huh! Truly exquisite irony!On the first episode of The Original PDP in 2026, we discuss the hiring of PDP (the other one) as the new President of Baseball Operations, Josh Byrnes as the new Rockies general manager, why these hires could be good, why they might be bad, why they are extremely Rockies in weirdness, and how the franchise managed to actually clear a bar of expectations by not just hiring the next person down the line in their C-suite.But maybe more than that, we discuss a smattering of truly horrible holiday commercials, using the Rockies' groundbreaking new reality of "well, they literally can't get worse, so let's see how this goes" as a vehicle to get to roast more ads.It's the latest edition of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast. Slap a red bow on it and give it to your sweetie at the holidays!

Episode 223 | May 13, 2025: Where Is The Bottom?
For the first time in a year and a half, the Purple Dinosaur Podcast returns. The reason, of course, is the Colorado Rockies' firing of manager Bud Black, the winningest -- and losingest -- skipper in club history.The 2025 Rockies are currently on pace to lose 135 games in a sport that plays 162 in a season. They have what appears to be one of the worst rosters ever assembled under the auspices of being a "major league" sports team. They can't hit nor pitch. Oh, and they can't field. But as anyone who's writing up a story about Black's firing is quick to point out: they're still getting good attendance.On this lengthy PDP, we dive into how this franchise got to this point and if there's any reason to believe that firing Black will suggest any sort of meaningful change to profesisonal sports' most bizarre franchise and its many strange modus operandi.It's a two-hour edition of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast. Hook it to your veins.

Episode 222 | December 20, 2023: Holiday Commercial Roast 2023
Let's face it: there ain't much to discuss with the local Colorado baseball team. They don't care about being relevant or good, so why should you?With that, one of our most (only?) anticipated shows of the year has returned for 2023. It's time to roast some bad TV commercials. This year, we have strong entries from the cell phone carrier market, a prescription medication spot that makes you want to rip your ears off, and surprisingly few contributions from the folks at car companies.It's the 2023 Holiday Commercial Roast Edition of the PDP! Deck the halls with it!

Episode 221 | April 28, 2023: What Are We Doing Here?
The 2023 Colorado Rockies season is nearly a month old and is shaping up to be quiet literally the worst in franchise history. The Rockies are off to their second-worst start in team history through 26 games and show very few signs of anything improving. On that note, the Purple Dinosaur Podcast returns for our first episode since the holidays!This is a different feeling season for a franchise that has always been happy in mediocrity. There isn't a huge wave of prospects on the horizon. There isn't a singular star player worth the price of admission every night. And maybe most concerning for an ownership always bereft of self-awareness or concern is that fans seem to be tuning out. The Rockies' average attendance is down far more than any other team in baseball this season.What does it mean for them, and what does it mean for you? And maybe most importantly, should you care? All that and more on this week's (year's?) episode of the PDP.

Episode 220 | December 23, 2022: Holiday Commercial Roast 2022
We haven't recorded an episode of your favorite neighborhood Colorado Rockies podcast because the Colorado Rockies are an incredibly boring, failure-ridden, non-aspirational franchise with no plan to get better in any measurable context, so...what were we going to talk about?THE GOOD NEWS IS that holiday commercials are somehow even worse than Colorado's baseball team! And we are finally back to discuss some of the worst among them for 2022. Whether you've been enraged by horrible wealthy people giving each other luxury cars for the holidays, moved to tears by irrationally emotional commercials for a grocery store chain, or unable to decipher what Jennifer Coolidge is saying in her "I couldn't possibly have tried less" Old Navy joint, we've got you covered.It's the 2022 Holiday Commercial Roast edition of the PDP! And we're the Antonellis!

Episode 219 | June 24, 2022: Fleeting Glimpses of Positivity
Well...the Rockies started the season 15-10 and have gone 15-30 since, so they're pretty bad. On this week's episode of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast, we talk about some baseball things and why this team is so putrid and why there (Sadly) isn't a lot of promise in the immediate future to keep people involved or interested.But hey, the Avs are in the Stanley Cup Final, and 80% of your #AskPDP questions were Avs-related in some form. So that's cool!All that and more is on the latest edition of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast. Go Avs go!

Episode 218 | May 18, 2021: If You're Going To Be Bad, At Least Be Interesting
Over a month into the 2022 Major League Baseball season, the Colorado Rockies look like what most of us expected: sadly mediocre. Unfortunately, they're also not very interesting, which sucks. With Kris Bryant out, the Rockies' offense has slumped to extremely boring status, and Colorado's pitching staff has not held out, to say the least. What does it mean when Bryant makes his return as soon as next week?Plus, we discuss how little is coming through the Rockies' prospect pipeline, so...really not much in this episode is too optimistic or exciting!It's the 218th edition of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast. Spin it in a centrifuge and inject it into your injured limbs!

Episode 217 | April 27, 2022: The Good, the Bad, and the Weird Baseballs
Nearing the end of April, it's time for an actual baseball-talkin' edition of the old PDP! On this week's (month's?) episode of the show, we discuss the 10-7 start of your, my, and our Colorado Rockies. What's good about it? What's concerning about it? What's the likelihood they'll ever climb above fourth place again? Kris Bryant hasn't hit a dinger, and Kyle Freeland keeps getting rocked. On the other hand, Connor Joe and Chad Kuhl should be Hall of Famers in no time. We discuss.Plus, Major League Baseball continues to make everyone mad with its actual baseballs. What's the situation this year? We break it down.All that and more is on this edition of the PDP! Juice it or deaden it depending on your offensive needs!
