Base on BallsBaseball, pitched by Culture

BASE ON BALLS is one of the most popular and successful baseball podcasts in Germany. Beyond the ballpark and into culture: baseball is more than an overlooked sport in Germany. It is a global cultural phenomenon reflected in streetwear, music videos, fashion, film and communities around the world. Yet while baseball caps and jerseys have become part of everyday culture, the stories and meanings behind them often remain unexplored.
Professional footballer and baseball expert Julian Pollersbeck joins hip-hop journalist Niko Backspin from Innings Magazine to explore the space where baseball meets pop culture. Together, they discuss the sport, its people and its cultural influence – from DBL, MLB and international baseball to identity, heritage, fashion, music and community. At the heart of the podcast is one central question: Why does a game without a clock feel more relevant today than ever?
Episode titles and descriptions are in German only.
