    Three women. One mission: make sure girls don’t just love baseball — they belong in it.


    In this episode of Unstoppable Podcast, we sit down with leaders from the Minnesota Girls Baseball Association and the Minnesota Twins organization who are helping reshape the future of the game:

    Emma Charlesworth-Seiler — founder of the Minnesota Girls Baseball Association, creating opportunities where none existed.

    Brittany Moore — a lifelong player who refused to walk away from the game, is now helping build national pathways for girls in baseball.

    Chelsey Falzone — Manager of Youth Engagement for the Twins, turning access into action at scale.


    From being the only girl on the field…

    to building teams, programs, and national pipelines…

    This isn’t about potential.

    It’s about progress.

    It’s about access.

    It’s about changing the game—for good.

  • Play With Courage: Angela Lewis on Turning Difference into Strength
    Mar 18 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Former Division I and professional basketball player Angela R. Lewis joins Lori Lewis on Unstoppable Podcast to talk about resilience, identity, and what it means to stand out—on and off the court.

    By the time she was just eleven or twelve years old, Angela was already six-foot-one, a height that made her impossible to overlook. Like many young athletes who grow up different from their peers, she had to learn early how to navigate confidence, visibility, and expectations.

    That difference ultimately led her to the game of basketball—and to a career playing at the highest levels of the sport.

    In this conversation, Angela reflects on:

    • Growing up tall and learning to embrace standing out
    • The mindset that helped her succeed as a Division I and professional basketball player
    • Lessons the game teaches about resilience, leadership, and identity
    • How athletes navigate life during and after competitive sports

    Angela’s story is a powerful reminder that the things that make us feel different early in life can become the very qualities that shape our purpose.

    This episode continues the mission of Unstoppable Podcast, a unique program blending narrative storytelling, immersive sound design, and powerful interviews celebrating women in sports—past and present.

    March is Women’s History Month, and it’s the perfect time to highlight women who are helping shape the future of sports.


    Christina Whitlock is one of them.

    A former standout collegiate athlete and member of the U.S. Women’s National Team, Christina went on to make history as the first uniformed female coach in the St. Louis Cardinals organization.

    But her story is about more than breaking barriers in baseball. In this conversation, Christina also shares the personal tragedies she has faced along the way—and the faith that helped carry her through some of life’s hardest moments.

    It’s an inspiring conversation about resilience, purpose, and finding your path—even when the journey takes unexpected turns.

  • Diamond Dreams: Ila Borders Takes the Mound
    Feb 12 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this powerful episode of Unstoppable Podcast, Lori Lewis sits down with trailblazing pitcher Ila Borders — the first woman to pitch in men’s professional baseball since the Negro Leagues.

    Ila didn’t just dream it. She did it.

    In 1997, she made history with the independent St. Paul Saints — the legendary club co-owned at the time by actor Bill Murray and baseball executive Mike Veeck. (The Saints would later become the Triple-A affiliate of the Minnesota Twins.)

    From facing skepticism and scrutiny to stepping confidently onto the mound in front of thousands, Ila shares what it took — mentally, emotionally, and physically — to compete in a world that never expected her to be there. She reflects on resilience, pressure, purpose, and what it means to open doors for the generations of girls coming behind her.

    For Lori, this conversation is more than an interview. It’s a full-circle moment — speaking with a woman who achieved the very dream she once held as a child practicing in the backyard and playing Little League with the boys.

    This is a story about courage.

    About persistence.

    About belonging on the field.

    And about what happens when a girl refuses to let go of her diamond dreams.

  • Rethinking Performance: Women, Sport, and the Science
    Jan 29 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode of Unstoppable, host Lori Lewis sits down with award-winning journalist and author Christine Yu to explore the often-overlooked science behind women’s sports and performance.


    For decades, training methods, recovery protocols, and even medical research have been built around male bodies—leaving women to adapt, push through pain, or assume they’re the problem. Christine breaks down why that approach fails women, how it affects athletes at every level, and what changes when we begin listening to our bodies instead of overriding them.

    This conversation goes beyond sports. It’s about redefining strength, questioning long-held assumptions, and understanding that progress doesn’t always mean pushing harder—it often means knowing better.

  • Hidden History - with Historian Jean Williams
    Jan 14 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Women’s sports history didn’t disappear by accident — it was hidden.

    In this episode of Unstoppable Podcast, we sit down with Jean Williams one of the foremost historians of women’s sport.

    Jean shares how researching women’s sports history often means working against silence — missing records, dismissed achievements, and narratives written out of official history. The stories exist, but they are scattered, buried, and too often ignored. Recovering them takes persistence, patience, and a refusal to accept that “nothing happened” simply because it wasn’t documented.

    Together, we explore why women’s sporting achievements were hidden in the first place, what it takes to bring those stories back into the light, and why reclaiming this history is essential to understanding today’s fight for equity, recognition, and respect.

    This is a conversation about truth, recovery, and the power of remembering.

    About the women who competed anyway — and the historians who refused to let their stories disappear.

  • Jane Chastain - Changing the Sound of Sports
    Dec 17 2025

    Send us Fan Mail

    Before women were welcomed in sports newsrooms — before audiences could imagine a woman delivering scores, analysis, and authority on air — there was Jane Chastain.

    In this episode of Unstoppable Podcast, we spotlight one of the true pioneers of sports broadcasting. Jane Chastain broke barriers in the 1960s and ’70s, becoming one of the first women in America to appear regularly on television as a sportscaster. At a time when women were often dismissed, sidelined, or outright banned from sports coverage, Jane showed up prepared, confident, and undeniable.

    Our episode opens with a cinematic vignette that places you inside the era—when typewriters clicked in newsrooms, football predictions were considered a man’s domain, and a young woman dared to claim her space on air.

    In my conversation with Jane, we talk about:
    • What it was really like to work in sports television when no roadmap existed
    • The resistance—and resilience—that shaped her career
    • Why visibility matters, even decades later
    • And how her legacy helped open doors for generations of women who followed

    Jane Chastain’s story isn’t just sports history—it’s media history, women’s history, and a reminder that progress often begins with one person brave enough to step forward.
