Welcome to the first episode of the Petty Talk Podcast! Here, we blend sports, life, and real talk.

I’m Justin Dixon, and along with Kalo Thomas and Jay Santos, kicking things off by sharing how this crazy journey began.

From social media callouts on "petty Monday" to deeper discussions about life changes, entrepreneurship, and community building, we hold nothing back.

You’ll see what it takes to build a team, navigate softball’s wild world of sandbagging and tournament politics, and stay true to yourself while keeping it fun.

Whether you’re a hardcore player, a fan of good trash talk, or someone who enjoys authentic, unfiltered conversation, this episode sets the tone for what’s to come on Petty Talk: real voices, real stories, and raw opinions you won’t find anywhere else.

So get ready to tune in – this is Petty Talk.
