Nothing says 'historical romance' like pickleball. Enjoy this entertaining and educational tour through the history of this amazing sport – with romance!

Next week's story is a combination of 90’s scary movie and beloved historical drama in “Dr. Giggles, Medicine Woman.”

Also, we are still looking for a sponsor. And according to our market research, up to 60% of our audience uses indoor plumbing, so we will be reaching out to Kohler faucets to see if they will sponsor us. More to follow on our next episodes.
