Kansas City Royals 1st basemen Vinnie Pasquantino joins the boys on Diggin' Deep!
Vinnie shares his journey to the big leagues, from the challenges of injuries that almost derailed his career to the exciting moments that defined his path. He reflects on his high school and college days, including a back injury that led him to rethink his future while balancing a job flipping burgers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Vinnie discusses his first big league camp in 2022 and the unique experiences of playoff baseball. He explains why he's proud of having earned every opportunity he's received and how he applies analytics to elevate his game. Vinnie also talks about his budding friendship with Bobby Witt Jr, who might not be the best at Call of Duty 😂
We'll also explore the Royals' current standing, the importance of team dinners, and Vinnie's role in fostering a positive clubhouse culture. He shares touching moments about teammate support and why these bonds are crucial for success on and off the field.
Vinnie also gives his thoughts on fantasy football, the camaraderie of road trips, and potentially becoming the mic guy!

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
