20 DEC 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!

28 APR 2023 · 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.

23 DEC 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!

25 JUN 2022 · 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!

19 MAY 2022 · 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!

27 APR 2022 · 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!

7 APR 2022 · The 2022 Major League Baseball season is here! In this year's season preview edition, we take a look at the Colorado Rockies and how, though we've given up on them ever being a serious baseball franchise, they could once again be entertaining at the very least. From the addition of Kris Bryant to continued growth of players like Ryan McMahon, Brendan Rodgers, and more, the 2022 Rockies may at least be able to smack the ball around a bit. That'll be cool. Hopefully. Plus, we take your #AskPDP queries on everything from the best Food Network personalities to the idea of a salary floor in MLB. All that and more is here on the 2022 season preview edition of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast. Gulp it down in LoDo on Opening Day!

23 MAR 2022 · The lockout is over, and the MLB season is almost here! On the very first edition of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast in 2022, we discuss the Rockies continuing to be the weirdest franchise in baseball by signing Kris Bryant to a monster deal for some reason! The signing is fun! It's also bizarre. KB will smack some monster dongs in Coors Field. That's fun! The Rockies also let Jon Gray and Trevor Story walk for nothing and did very little to improve their pitching staff. That's not. So it'll be a weird year! We discuss the change in mental approach to the Rockies as your favorite team and what these new signings mean about the future for them and for you. All that and more are on the first 2022 edition of the Purple Dinosaur Podcast! Smack it into orbit!

22 DEC 2021 · Another year, another batch of absolutely terrible holiday commercials. The PDP's annual roast of the worst attempts to sell you crap for the holidays is here! While the 2021 contenders seemed thing compared to years past, we still found quite a few pieces of flaming advertising garbage to fill your hearts with holiday cheer. From Old Navy coining a new term to refer to the season to Kate McKinnon annoying the hell out of you while shilling Verizon to the dark and disturbing backstory of the family and the child in that Apple spot with the snowman held hostage in a freezer, it's all here. It's the PDP's annual holiday commercial roast! Put it in your loved ones' stockings!

12 NOV 2021 · In the least surprising development in franchise history, the Rockies just handed the general manager job to the next office down the line by tapping longtime scouting vice president Bill Schmidt to construct and operate a major league roster, something he's never done before. We don't know, man! Maybe it'll work! Probably not! But we discuss that news anyway. At the honoring of Larry Walker and his Hall of Fame induction at Coors Field, Rockies owner Dick Monfort wasn't introduced to the crowd, seemingly deliberately. We discuss what that move says about him and the franchise. Plus, the Rockies didn't put out a qualifying offer to Jon Gray which means they now risk losing one of the most successful pitchers in franchise history for zero return. Seems bad! We dive in. And we're taking your #AskPDP queries on everything from the Jokić brothers to terrible holiday commercials to which historical figure we'd hire to run the Rockies. All that and more is on this week's episode of the PDP! Get into it!
