Pilot Episode - Jacque Talk & MLB Awards

In the pilot episode of Thick Skin, former Major League Baseball players Jacque Jones and LaTroy Hawkins set the tone for the show, taking the audience into the locker room. For the first time, Jacque shares the story of being fired from his role as hitting coach of the Washington Nationals after being accused of revenge porn. As one of Jacque's closest friends since the early days of their professional careers as teammates of the Minnesota Twins, Hawk pulls no punches. Jacque shares the details of the rollercoaster ride of emotions - from his perspective - on how his coaching career in DC came to an abrupt end under friend and manager Dusty Baker. Jacque & Hawk wrap up the show discussing some of the stars of the 2023 MLB season as the award-winners were announced by Major League Baseball. Thick Skin is produced by Next Chapter Podcasts.
