How is your mental health. I'm listening with Michael Phelps and I think for me in 2014 when I found myself in a dark dark place where I didn't want to be alive in those 40s when I was in my room by myself. I wanted to find a different way. I wanted to find a different answer.

I was sick and tired of feeling heartfelt that that's why started to seek help and that's when I checked myself in the treatment center choice for odysseys.

I'm listening to our national mental health conversation Wednesday, September 21 at 6 PM talk saves lives, how is your mental health.

I'm listening with Michael Phelps and I think for me in in 2014 when I found myself in that dark dark place where I didn't want to be alive in those 40s when I was in my room by myself. I wanted to find a different way.

I wanted to find a different answer. I was sick and tired of feeling heartfelt and that that's why started to seek help. In the end, and that's when I checked myself in the treatment center choice for odysseys.

I'm listening to our national mental health conversation Wednesday, September 21 at 6 PM talk saves lives abuse, these after rollers law rings, it finally happened again will filing another homerun. Why get so jacked up about it. Actually I do know why that why I wanted to get to 700 so desperately enter Duane delaying.

I wouldn't say it's running out were not to the point where the hourglass is running out yet but time is dwindling on his opportunities to reach that baseball immortality that rarefied air that is 700 homerun.

I don't know if he does it but I am here to cheer for every step he takes closer to that number and he did take another gigantic step. In fact, had a huge game, along with Nolan Aaron Otto as the St. Louis Cardinals go on the road and for now protect their first place standing atop the NL Central. It's going to be one of those races. I hope that goes down the wire but right now we see the Cardinals and the Brewers switch places multiple times during the season and here we are not quite mid-August. We generally call this mid-August. Can we not yet were dog day unit were taken to the dog dated time baby for a friend and I were just talking about that how you get through challenges, whether it's personal or professional you go one day at a time to look too far ahead.

When I look too far ahead. I trip course if I focus too hard on what's right in front of me. I did, I tripped then to frequently walking into walls and apologizing to the furniture but for purposes of baseball it's okay to take it one dated time was were still into one. This dog day stretch. Not quite to that final month yet, although this time in one month will be hours away from the NFL season opener. Wowsers it's it's strange right into the strange dichotomy of the slow meandering pace of the 162 game baseball season and I do enjoy it. I said to you before, I love the fact that baseball is my soundtrack of summer. But I also know there's some anxiety and now some tension, some increased sense of urgency as we get closer to the first full preseason weekend in the NFL and then on into what's to come for weeks from Thursday you guys for weeks from Thursday at the after hours with Amy Lawrence on CBS sports radio what we started this network. We were on the air. Following the 2012 NFL season, so it is brilliant start to the network because we literally started right as the NFL playoffs are kicking off following the 12 season, but into 2013*are on your date the inception of the network. January 1, 2013 and I remember how cool it was to be able to hop right in to NFL playoffs. I can't believe it's been almost 10 years and once we get through this regular-season wow will be hopping into the 2022 postseason but 2023 look too far ahead. I can't do that. I got a kind of focus on where Yampa Doolittle planning. It's good to have something to look forward to speaking of looking and looking forward. So many of you sent me questions were asking me anything. We did it with a twist during our home show last night and because of that we got a lot of extra questions. I went back and answered a bunch of them on both Twitter and Facebook, but certainly there's some that we might use in weeks moving forward. Although, I gotta tell you, I'd schedule.

I've got coming up next week only one show in this time slot. Instead, I've got to chose to start the week noon to three Pacific 3P to 6P Eastern time Monday and Tuesday so it's the time slot normally well reserved. Normally reserved for Maggie and per lot, but they are on vacation, I believe, and so I'll be hosting their show on Monday and Tuesday which is also on CBS sports network all idea. Not looking forward to that of already started to think about it I think upsets over it a little bit just the whole idea being on TV for three straight hours makes you want to break out in hives but will cross that bridge we come to it. There is one opportunity for me to focus on one dated time this show would stink if I was too busy worrying about next week shows right so Monday Tuesday I'll be doing the Maggie Perloff show but then back here Tuesday night into Wednesday morning for our home show and all the rest the week the weird week.

It really is, but they asked me to fill in the guest host ends up doing that but also had family in town the end of next week so it can be a little bit odd and after producer Jay will have tomorrow night show together and that only one show next week and so we aren't really working together much either, even as we hit one year since he joined the show at the lead producer so you all this a little bit odd, but it keeps marching forward.

Dog days, dog days, dog days, but I am writing to September and football and then, yes, the baseball stretch run.

So there is time for Albert poo holes, but I am feeling a little bit of anxiety over him taken advantage of these opportunities. Maize question lefties all say that we are live from the rocket mortgage Studios. Whether you're looking to purchase a new home or refinance yours. Rocket mortgage can help you get there for home loan solutions that fit your life. Rockets can buy me on Twitter a lot radio love to connect with you there and then also on our Facebook page after hours with Amy Lawrence we put our podcast up every weekday morning. And so you can find that if you don't catch the show live or you don't catch the entire show live.

You can do that after hours Amy Lawrence.com and I do generally share the link on Twitter and Facebook or J shares that when he gets back so there's always opportunities to find their though every single day. People say to me, podcast, or how can I listen to yourself. I don't catch it live OR we lost our affiliate how can I get your show live. So yes were always answering questions about how and when we can connect with you. I don't otherwise but I do have the house and the weapons our phone number, always remain the same for 10 years and yet sometimes I get wrong.

855-212-4227 that's 855-2124 CBS. Are we all set. We good, something I discovered today my radio voice still not loud enough for Patty to hear me.

She's definitely losing her hearing my three girl and so and I'll use the gravy example to talk about what's happening with my dog. Now when I used to speak to Grammy on the phone. Even with my landline so I I have a landline or how to have a landline, because my Grammy couldn't hear me real well on my cell phone their interference with her hearing aids, which were wireless. And so I keep my home phone I use it for other things too, but I have a landline that I use and and the primary reason was to be able to speak to Grammy Helen she still at times couldn't hear what I had to say. So I would yell, which is one reason why I rarely spoke to her in public but sometimes even when I spoke to her in person in her apartment. I would be yelling and if the door was open. I just kinda had to expect that everybody could hear our conversation. That's how I feel about my dog right now were out the neighborhood and less I yelled, the dog cannot hear me when she can still here because I I see her react to some of the things that I say if I'm yelling, so when I yell. Not only can the dog hear me, but all the neighbors can hear me as well. But I'll tell you what that dog is the most popular member of the family. People love the cat to not me though I don't love the cat. My college roommate. She she's the one that went to the baseball game with me in Boston a couple weekends ago. She actually said to me recently. Hey, I'm moving into an apartment where they allow cats all take sugar if you want. Oh I was so tempted because she hears me complain about the cat a lot but I can't. Sugars part of the family. She's like a kid that dad drives you insane, but you can't get rid of the kid because the kids party. So now I didn't give up sugar but anyway I am sure is popular with most other people. The family just not me. Patty is popular all over the neighborhood. It dawned on me today how many people know Penny and we've been walking around the neighborhood now for seven years. They don't know my name, but they know Penny, they probably just associate me with the dog. Amazing how many people in the neighborhood know Penny by name. She gets a ton of attention. They have no idea who I am except that I'm always with her. Her handler if you will. I'm her PR PR what PR coordinator I do her PR have your people get in touch with her people and her people would be me so that cut it dawned on me today was kind of funny because Bob, a lady actually came out of her house just to say hello to my dog and pet her and I was that little kids are going by their bikes.

Oh my gosh Penny. We put Penny sure of course you can. So anyway, yelling along yelling at my grandmother now yelling at my dog.

I guess it's just good practice for when I yell at you on the radio know I don't ever yell at you. I do yell about sport sometimes but I don't yell at you over sports because that's that's just a waste of breath.

No need to be yelling. However, when Albert pools has one of the games that he had on Wednesday nights I couldn't I get little bit of EL try to get some work on the pitch for a single scoring one run across his third single to to pitch Robert Poole who swings it is a high fly ball deep left-center for a little while and this one is stands for a double. Clear the wall number.

As his second hips and I wanted to Poole's plans are so seven. That is the voice of John Rooney Cardinals radio of four hit game for one Albert pools he goes back to back with Noel and Aaron Otto in the sixth inning for his 687th home run and back. He and Nolan combined for seven hits.

So the Cardinals Have Their Way in Colorado at Coors Field, a big win for them to hold off the Brewers who have put together back-to-back victories.

When you think about whatever pools is doing now in historical context. So it's separate really from what the Cardinals are doing as a team, though he obviously contributes on nights like this, others released to Cardinals themes running concurrently making the playoffs winning division that the most important thing, but man it's a lot of fun to see how his teammate like Paul DeJong react to Albert pools and just watching setbacks, sensors of his speeches and speeches by talking to writers meetings, not just rely on him as a leadership role in the system is in the same so don't the Cardinals have now won eight of their last 10 you remember they swept the Yankees over the weekend at Busch Stadium. Now on the road. It was a big deal for them even if they're locked in this pennant race against the Brewers to be able to pick up victories on the road there still below 500 on the road so that's a big piece of when your division is being able to win away from home and certainly can come into play in the postseason so they do not have as good a record on the road as the Brewers deal, but this was a big step in and obviously a big win for them just to mention what a hard working, opportunities no fortitude to take Dan Sue's goats have a great team one to contribute as a secret overall guys bounce back will be like we did last night and for them to come back with some authority in the first_five just shows so is also so sure that is one of the intriguing races going on a major-league baseball. I would say the NL West is an intriguing race. Maybe it's more about how far out in front. The Dodgers get or really, if you're thinking big picture because the goal for a team that stacks its raw started slide up like the Dodgers that goes out and gets pieces repeatedly year after year is to win the World Series right there, not messing around in anything short of a World Series is a disappointment for the Dodgers.

That's what they do. They spend money they try to collect these pieces and they do certainly have a formidable lineup finger pitching is actually been a nice surprise for them this season because they've got Tyler Anderson and Tony gone to Landon who got double figure wins. They've also got already asked who is I think I think he's a double figure wins as will the beach well old and so they got three really strong pictures even as they got them injuries to some of the other guys they expected Clayton Kershaw right now on the IL again.

The Dodgers though are not likely to be pushed other than for the best record in the National League in and right now they also have the best record overall so that the right is a race but it's not like last year where they were little battle tested because they went toe to toe with the Giants all the way to the end of the regular season.

The very last day of the regular season. Now does that mean they're knocking to be as prepared for the playoffs.

Maybe not you got a lot of veterans in this lineup even guys who are part of that 2020 World Series.

But you've also got the new pieces pieces that you're adding I got some young guys who are trying to to break in on a regular basis. I said this about the Yankees earlier in the season. I love the fact that they had posted such a huge lead right out of the gate. Don't think it's good for a team. I think it's better we have to fight and scratch and claw you face of adversity.

It doesn't always come easy to you and that way you know you're prepared for the pressure cooker that is the postseason right now there is anyone stepping up to trip up these Dodgers rights throughout yellow twins are a team with playoff aspirations there above 500. What I talking about a creampuff here, but the Dodgers are able to rally. They get the home runs that you hear from Chris Taylor and Joey Gallo also Max Muncy so LA has the best record in the big leagues and also has a 10 game win streak.

I thought this was interesting. I didn't realize this because the daughters have been so good for so long it seems like first time in five years.

They put together a double-digit win streak.

So there's that. I guess it's after hours air on CBS sports radio Joey Gallo relatively new right end and he's had what shall we say we say he's had a bit of a tumultuous couple of months to be sure, if you look on some of the websites where you can see players bios. He still wearing Yankees, pinstripes and Yankee right so he was dumped essentially by the Yankees and he was really because our CBS portrait headquarters are located in New York. I know this listening to local radio sometimes and listening to some of the Yankees broadcast a lot of people down on him and he wasn't performing with New York and so now he's with the Dodgers and it's like the Midas touch, pinch-hit three run home run for Joey Gallo in his sixth game with LA and also situated for so I know that most athletes will tell you they don't pay attention to the noise they don't listen to the negativity.

But that's probably not true for most of them clearly. Gallo heard it kind of hard to ignore it.

When you're in a market with as passionate fans as what New York has.

There are various regions around the country where sports fans get pretty crazy and can be over the top so gallows thrilled that they're not booing him and he's not the object of derision right now and also for Lord on the such a great organization so they put Gallo in the lineup. Plus, Chris Taylor just came off the injured list. Friday he missed almost a month with broken left foot so the Dodgers seemingly have answers for everything and now up to 77 wins but it's August and so it does mean a whole lot right now we have a lot to get you still on the baseball diamond. The Mets are hot. So they're pushing the Dodgers for best record in the NL Aaron judge has another home run by the Seattle Mariners in the last 44.45 games have the best record in baseball. We talked about that last night they had on another win on Wednesday afternoon. There's a general manager fired in baseball civil, giving the owner's explanation why is hear it straight from the Tigers mouth and of course NFL in the NFL. We've got a move by the Cleveland Browns's even as they await some ruling on the appeal in DeShawn Watson's case.

You can find me on twitter a lot radio also on her Facebook page were just getting started. Just getting warmed up. Maybe it's after hours with Amy Lawrence CBS sports radio you are listening to the after-hours podcast on the set
