Big dinosaurs, big prizes! Seth Elkin of The Maryland Lottery talks Jurassic Park and Mummy Money in addition to the biggest promotion of the year in progress Ravens scratch-off winners appear every day.
After spending two decades together inside and outside the Baltimore Ravens’ organization, it was finally time for former team chiropractor Doug Miller to join Nestor on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour at The Beaumont in his homeland of Catonsville to to discuss moving your body better and what we learn from a life in professional sports.
It’s very personal with Will Hinman, a peer counselor at the Maryland Center of Excellence on Problem Gambling, who shares his personal journey and the high risk of suicide among problem gamblers with Nestor. We all know about the number – and might even know someone who needs to use it – and we explored exactly what happens when someone seeks treatment. Hinman stresses the availability of free counseling and support groups in Maryland to help those struggling with gambling addiction.
In our continuing GBMC local health awareness and education series here at Baltimore Positive, we welcome Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist Allison Ashcraft, who helps Nestor with ways to better assist his wife Jenn, who is a Type 1 diabetic, and to improve lifestyle for those at risk of the complications of the disease.
The Baltimore Ravens are a 7 1/2 point underdog at home against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday and the weather forecast seems frightful. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss this week’s injury report, the Odafe Oweh trade and preview Matt Stafford and Puka Nacua visiting a wet and beleaguered Charm City and staying a while.
As the season gets scarier, The Maryland Lottery is ramping up the Hall-O-Win fun just in time for pumpkin and spice and candy and winning. John Martin of The Maryland Lottery tells Nestor about all of the fall fun ahead as the winners continue to enjoy responsible play and the football season.
With the season on the brink at 1-4 and the defense getting decimated first by injury and then by opposing quarterbacks and running games, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Ravens’ current operation and the job security of Zach Orr and the entire staff. And how will it improve given the current cast of healthy players and injured veterans?
The fans of the Baltimore Ravens sent quite a vivid message on Sunday in leaving the stadium deserted in the fourth quarter of a 44-10 Houston beatdown. Leonard Raskin is a lifer PSL holder and tells Nestor why he left early and why he’ll be back again next Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams.
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh thinks Nestor “hates” him. Actually, we’re here as local media to hold him responsible as the head coach of the team for the pathetic effort in the aftermath of a 44-10 loss and the embarrassment of the stadium emptying out in the 3rd quarter. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the horrific showing – on and off the field in recent years – and all roads lead to the top of the organization.
It was as bad as we’ve ever seen in modern Baltimore football, especially during the John Harbaugh era, but the soul searching that the head coach spoke of in the aftermath of a 44-10 beating at the hands of the Houston Texans leaves many questions about the whole operation. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the lack of fire and what the options are now that this once-Super Bowl promising season is on the brink. “Too many injuries” is not a valid message.
Baltimore’s 34-point loss tied the largest home margin of defeat in the John Harbaugh era on Sunday.
This delicious artisan catfish sandwich won the Governor’s Award this summer and now Damye Hahn of Faidley’s Seafood in Lexington Market is ready to taste test Matt Gallagher of Goldseker Foundation and Nestor at Lexington Market on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour. An invasive Maryland catfish primer and a tasty new local dish are on the menu in Baltimore.
What does it mean for the defense of the Houston Texans that Lamar Jackson won’t be under center on Sunday in Baltimore? We asked longtime Texans voice Marc Vandermeer, who gives Nestor a primer on Houston football history and the leadership strengths of DeMeco Ryans and his defense, as Cooper Rush is set to start for the Ravens amidst an unprecedented flurry of injuries to a 1-3 team suddenly battling for relevance.
Always a pleasure to talk football with Maryland’s own Shawne Merriman, who comes home to discuss his burgeoning Lights Out Fights MMA business and the path of his Chargers and the Ravens with Super Bowl expectations and present realities.
With Lamar Jackson sidelined this week in Owings Mills, it’s time to face the reality of what the Baltimore Ravens offensive potential and pathway to a win over the Houston Texans will be without No. 8 and a huge chunk of the defense. Hard times for #RavensFlock, as Luke Jones and Nestor preview a pair of 1-3 teams fighting for any ugly win available.
Deep in the heart of Texas, the longtime voice of the Houston Texans in espanol tells Nestor about the community engagement in the Hispanic world of American football. Let Enrique Vasquez get you ready for what to expect from C.J. Stroud against a depleted Baltimore Ravens defense on Sunday. (Don’t worry: this one is in English!)
No one is in a rush to see Cooper Rush get behind center but Houston sports media pundit Matt Thomas tells Nestor that the Texans have a lot of experience seeing him throw and Derrick Henry run the ball against them over the years. The Ravens are 8-0 against the horns in Baltimore but lots of injuries for the Ravens presents a big opportunity for C.J. Stroud to excel in a matchup of scuffling playoff hopefuls early in the NFL season.
As the swashbuckling quarterback of the Bum Phillips-era Houston Oilers, Dan Pastorini was Nestor’s favorite football player in his late 1970s childhood. Now, like many former Baltimore Colts here and abandoned by his franchise in Texas, Pastorini catches up on the Oilers uniform revival in Nashville, the pain of the Texans in Houston and how to Be An Angel.
It hasn’t been a great year so for the Baltimore Ravens or the fan base. Longtime Houston football fan and Texas attorney Steph Stradley returns in her best Bum Phillips attire to discuss the state of the Texans and how C.J. Stroud could attack a depleted Ravens defense this week.
This Baltimore Ravens roster held so much promise a month ago. Now, at 1-3 and staring at life without several of the highest paid players on the team, expectations of a Super Bowl seem distant and the next win is the most important one. Leonard Raskin and Nestor dissect the failures and injuries of Ravens as the season turns sour after the 38-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
None of the news has been encouraging out of Owings Mills. The injuries to Lamar Jackson and Ronnie Stanley on the offense and the decimation of the defensive front with Nnamdi Madubuike gone for the year and Roquan Smith, Marlon Humphrey and Nate Wiggins all early exits in Kansas City, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the scorecard you’ll need to identify who will play against the Houston Texans on Sunday.
There’s no better excuse to have Houston sportswriter legend John McClain back on the show than when the Texans are coming to Baltimore. This time, he educates Nestor on the path of head coach DeMeco Ryans, progress of quarterback C.J. Stroud and provides a little history lesson about the Baltimore Colts roots deep in the heart of Texas.
President of baseball operations Mike Elias said interim manager Tony Mansolino remains a candidate for the permanent job.
The entire defensive line of the Baltimore Ravens was ravaged with injury before the game started in Kansas City. Now, with Roquan Smith, Marlon Humphrey and Nate Wiggins added to the injury report, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the defensive deficiencies and obvious depth concerns amidst mass losses and an atrocious 1-3 start to a season with Super Bowl expectations.
The purple sky isn’t falling but it sure feels that way after a 37-20 drubbing at the hands of the Kansas City Chiefs. The Baltimore Ravens have begun the season in a huge hole and are now littered with injuries across both sides of the ball. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss all that ails the men of John Harbaugh and the sputtering offense and ravaged defense.
Head coach John Harbaugh had few answers after Baltimore’s awful showing in Sunday’s defeat to the Chiefs.
It was a bad day in Kansas City for the Baltimore Ravens. Now 1-3 and overwhelmed by a game filled with injuries, Luke Jones and Nestor pick up the ugly pieces of a horrendous loss to Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.
It’s not the heavyweight fight we expected in Kansas City on Sunday as both teams are 1-2 and need to start winning football games. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the high stakes for Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes and the franchises as the Ravens travel to the Chiefs as a dubious 2 1/2-point road favorite at Arrowhead Stadium.
With the arms of Trevor Rogers and Kyle Bradish seeking to play Yankees spoiler in The Bronx on the final weekend of the season, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the end of an awful Orioles campaign and look to next year and wonder where the level of optimism for the fan base should be amidst all of the awfulness – on and off the field for David Rubenstein, Michael Arougheti and Catie Griggs. First up: who is Mike Elias going to hire?
It’s another Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes billed “Game Of The Weekend” in Kansas City but with both teams at 1-2, the stakes and rewards feel different for this early season battle at Arrowhead Stadium. Blair Kerkhoff of The Kansas City Star previews another heavyweight contest and the high stakes for Andy Reid and John Harbaugh, who square off once again as Super Bowl contenders in peril.
When we saw that the winner got four more than one million dollars, we had questions. Seth Elkin of The Maryland Lottery joins Nestor to discuss some odd winning numbers and the fine local art the agency collected in its most recent promotion for a 2026 scratchoff with a Free State theme.
Dylan Beavers hit a walk-off home run after Coby Mayo had tied the game with a two-run shot in the last of the eighth inning.

Another week, another terrible fumble by future Hall of Famer Derrick Henry and another Ravens loss in September. Our defending football champion Dennis Koulatsos returns to discuss the many problems of the Baltimore Ravens with Nestor after the 38-30 loss to the Detroit Lions on Monday Night Football.
It’s not often that the Baltimore Ravens get pushed around in their house. That happened on Monday night against the Detroit Lions and Luke Jones and Nestor are picking up the pieces of an ugly Ravens loss and a short week of prep before heading to Kansas City to face a similarly scuffling Chiefs team and Patrick Mahomes.
It’s three weeks into the season and the Baltimore Ravens are 1-2 and the loser at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City on Sunday evening will be 1-3. Luke Jones and Nestor take a bumpy ride through the league and the fast week ahead for Ravens and Chiefs and licking wounds.
It’s a new season and a new school year at Coppin State University where head coach Larry Stewart is getting a whole new cast of student athletes assembled to play in the MEAC. He joined Nestor at The Beaumount in Catonsville on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour to talk NIL and modern college basketball recruiting realities that are different than when Fang Mitchell brought him to West Baltimore 39 years ago.
There hasn’t been much to provide offseason hope for a last place baseball team but Luke Jones and Nestor agree that the emergence of Trevor Rogers and encouraging return of Kyle Bradish to the top of the Orioles rotation helps ease some pressure on a Birdland offseason of unrest for Mike Elias and a franchise in search of better pitching and awakened, youthful bats next spring.
It’s a rare morning-after where we’re discussing the Baltimore Ravens’ defense getting pushed around at home. Luke Jones and Nestor the many discuss problems the purple men of Zach Orr had in stopping the run, rushing Lions quarterback Jared Goff or defending the pass in a bad 38-30 beat to Detroit on Monday Night Football.
