If you'll indulge us: We'd like to take one more look back at the Drought Years. So we're asking you to assemble your 2012-21 Phillies All-Drought Team
A rain delay feels like a decent enough time to share some good news. So here you go:

The Phillies, powered by the collective of Weston Wilson, Buddy Kennedy, Cal Stevenson, and Kody Clemens, are mere games away from clinching their first division title in 14 years.

Well. Offseason preview records tomorrow.
We’ll touch on the big topics (Nola, Hoskins, Harper’s position), but if you have questions about what this winter might look like, reply here and we’ll pick a few to go over
After a waste of Zack Wheeler's brilliance in Game 1, the Phils showed up with an instant classic walk-off victory in Game 2. All square headed to New York.

We did not become rich and famous enough in time to bankroll a show trip to London for this weekend. But assuming the sport of baseball, international flights, and the country of England still exist the next time the Phillies go…well then maybe
36 hours hasn't been quite long enough for Paul's voice to fully heal but you know what? It's the postseason, baby. You play through the nagging injuries in the podcast game. Warrior mentality.
New episode shortly
We’ll be live for the start of Sunday morning’s game, around 10am ET. Join us at PhilliesTherapy, and maybe you’ll hear at least one of us do a terrible English accent

I think you were both right on your
@PhilliesTherapy
predictions: Marsh hit a homer, and the game was decided not on a ball in play—it was decided when Arcia activated Vengance Harper.
Hey everyone. Thanks for hanging out with us this season. It feels like we picked a decent time to start a new show, I think.
We’ll be with you during the offseason as things unfold there, too. Enjoy your decompression time, and we’ll be back with you again soon
The World Series starts tonight. Maybe you'll watch, maybe you won't, but as that series plays out, the Phillies are (regrettably) already in their offseason. We take a look ahead:
2023 Offseason Preview (& NLCS Game 7 Recap)
(Thank you as always to everyone who listens. We did those predictions right near the end of this last ep, those are receipts we really appreciate seeing)

joins to discuss her craft of Phillies content collection and creation, why the "fun" element of these Phillies can sometimes go missing, and (of course) the Beefy Boy of the Day
💥NLDS Game 3 Postgame: Worth the Wait💥
The 4,000-day wait for home playoff baseball paid off in some instantly memorable moments, and a 2-1 series lead
We're recording our season preview tomorrow, and it'll be out before first pitch
We want to hear from you, too, so it's predictions time! We'll go over these on the episode tomorrow
NEW!
🔎In Search of Dingers🔎
Paul and Matt recap the Phillies' slow start and home opener festivities, with cheers for the sophomore batters and jeers for any pitcher's ability to throw strikes. Except for José Alvarado. He is precious.
It’s the eve of the dance. Charge those batteries. We’ll be with you tomorrow with a look back at the regular season and a look ahead to the series with the Marlins
Your experience as listeners comes first, and if we were going to take that Next Step, we wanted to make sure you were happy to come along for the ride. Thank you, all of you, as always. We'll be back with a new episode soon ❤️⚾️
Paul and Matt review Cristopher Sánchez's new contract, Taijuan Walker's injury, and fondly remember the Steve Susdorf Game.

Paul and Matt talk about roster fits and flexibility, the reemergence of Bryson Stott, and how to strategize for potential summer trade pickups.

You've waited. And waited. Waited some more. And definitely didn't forget this was a thing.
No more! The Phillies All-Playoff-Drought Team episode hits your feeds tomorrow. Stay tuned.
The Braves bolt out of the gate looking like a regular season power again, while the Phillies scrape together a salvaging Sunday win. Plus some thoughts on how it'll be "still early" for a little while yet
A Series of Statements
The Phillies, fortunate to escape last weekend's series with a split against the Marlins, now set their sights toward a far tougher stretch

We may do some kind of thing (bonus episode? Stream? Don’t know yet) for London this weekend. Also expect to have another special guest in the coming weeks
To confirm, the very end of this episode is like our first MCU-style post-credits scene. Not the Edwin Díaz thing; after that. It’s meant to be there, a reward for our completionist listeners

You can join us on Twitch (PhilliesTherapy on there, this cursed site won’t allow a link in the tweet) for the recording starting around 9:30am ET. Everyone else, business as usual. Seeya there
Hello! Not a whole lot happening in Phillies land lately, and you’ve got a happy distraction going on across the complex. Nothing new from us imminent, but we’ll ramp up as Spring Training gets closer!
Look, we know: The two of us are special guests all on our own. But maybe you’ve wondered how powerful we’d be with *another* special guest. Can’t blame you!
Well, wonder no more. See you next week.
Paul and Matt stop in for one more check-in here in 2023 to talk Harper extension, Hoskins's destination, Pederson's Instagramming, and narrowing the gap between the Phillies and Braves
Offseason Check-In: No Joc-ing Matter
Powered by a tide-turning Kyle Schwarber grand slam and an unlikely cycle from unsung hero Weston Wilson, the Phils have rebuilt their division lead. So just how *back* do we think the Phils really are?

Paul and Matt (briefly) peek back at the glum week that was, brace for the remainder of the west coast trip, and check in on the mood of the team amidst these struggles.

With their third chance in three series to take the first two games on the road coming up, the Phillies look to assert control of the NLCS. Looking ahead to Wednesday's Game 2
