Diamonds, Drinks, and Des Moines!

This week on the Stick Lounge Podcast, we’re rolling out the red carpet for a very special episode! 

Joe sits down with Richard Waldron, Vice President of the Des Moines Legacy Foundation, and Ted Pickett, the musical talent headlining this year’s Diamond Ball. 

The guys dig into everything you need to know about the Legacy Foundation’s biggest annual fundraiser — the Diamond Ball, a night packed with silent auctions, paddle raises, great food, drinks, and live entertainment that brings the whole community together. 

This year’s featured performer, Ted Pickett, brings his incredible Neil Diamond tribute to the ballroom with tableside performances and full‑on sing‑along moments that guarantee a good time. And for the first time ever, the Stick Lounge’s own Joe will be stepping onto the stage as the Master of Ceremonies and Auctioneer. 

From behind‑the‑scenes stories to the impact this event has on Des Moines, WA, this episode is full of heart, laughs, and hometown pride. 

Don’t miss this one — the Diamond Ball is shining bright, and we’ve got the inside scoop.
