Luke and Nestor discuss the Orioles best path forward with new ownership at Koco's Pub on "A Cup Of Soup Or Bowl Week" to benefit The Maryland Food Bank. New owners at The Warehouse? What do we expect from a new regime with a first-place team and a wizard front office now armed with resources to win a World Series?
“What did do you do wrong, Nestor?” “Why would the Ravens throw you out?” “Why are you the only one in the local media whom they’ve thrown out?” “Why have they treated you this way?” “WHAT DID YOU DO WRONG!?!” I am fed up with these questions from Baltimore sports fans so I wrote to the owner because these questions are his to answer. Letters to John Harbaugh and Eric DeCosta are also coming soon.
In celebrating our 25th Anniversary at Baltimore Positive and WNST-AM 1570, we are planning our inaugural “Crab Cake Row: A Cup of Soup Or Bowl Week” next week from February 5th through 9th in conjunction with five fantastic local, family restaurants and we’d love for you to come by, participate and be a part of it as we raise awareness for 100 different charities, community groups and raise food and donations for the Maryland Food Bank and local pantries. Live radio and fun from 9a-5p all next week!
WNST and Baltimore Positive founder Nestor Aparicio was invited onto "The You Matter Podcast" by his longtime media friend, Mark "The Blade" Brodinsky. The question: "What can you do to be the very best version of you every day and live the life you were meant to live?" The two most important days in your life are the day you're born and the day you find out why. Let's find out why! Hear Nestor discuss "Crab Cake Row: A Cup Of Soup Or Bowl" and his road as a local entrepreneur and media leader.
In the season and spirit of love, we present our Chief Cannabis Officer Wendy Bronfein of Curio Wellness to discuss the power of the "Oh" for Valentine's Day love as the terpenes and cannabinoids take effect to produce a different sensation this spring.
Bill Cole and Nestor discuss the craziest week of Baltimore sports history – the Ravens' epic collapse and the promise of a new Orioles ownership for Baltimore sports fans in David Rubenstein.
In our never-ending exploration and education behind why it does what it does, our Chief Cannabis Officer Wendy Bronfein of Curio Wellness tells Nestor about the other terps ("terpenes") and how you might get a better night of sleep of sleep by exploring some uniquely new and effective uses of the plant and the science.
Back in 2008 when head coach Brian Billick departed from the Baltimore Ravens and wanted to remain in Maryland, he became our partner at WNST.net on behalf of the Living Classrooms Foundation. As a legacy AM radio station that has now made it a quarter of a century as an enduring and truth-telling multimedia outlet on the strength of our partnerships, relationships and the benevolence of special people who serve to lift the community, we're indebted to Coach Billick for his time, wisdom and integrity. Brian Billick never had any problem telling it like it is – and never lost sight of how important the Baltimore fan base and community were in his success as the Ravens head coach but also as a leader in the city where he brought us a Super Bowl XXXV parade.
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh privately vowed to help Nestor Aparicio with his media credential bullying situation with Chad Steele in any way he could. Weeks later, Aparicio was exterminated. Harbaugh then told him he was unhappy about it but powerless because it wasn't his department in Owings Mills.
The founder of WNST is an old news hound who was trained by the best in the business in the 1980s at The News American and The Baltimore Sun. When the internet became a thing at the turn of the century and texting quickly became ubiquitous, Nestor Aparicio asked his listeners to join the WNST Text Service sponsored by Koons Ford of Security Blvd. No spam! Ever. It's been over 18 years since we launched the most trusted source for breaking sports news in Baltimore. What was the big news that you heard first and where were you when you received the text? (And ask Nestor about the time he purposely launched one in the cafeteria at the Ravens' Liars Luncheon with NFL schedule news to watch everyone in the room reach for their phones!)
Donna Brothers of NBC Sports makes her annual visit to Baltimore Positive, discussing at length the Baffert and Churchill drama and previewing all of the connections and stories of Preakness 149 at Pimlico with Nestor.
If you love old Pimlico or know anything about Maryland horse racing, you know that legendary track announcer Larry Collmus is a Mount St. Joe boy. But, Nestor needed to know the rest of the story and further extended the legend of the great Clem Florio, who rides every race with the Triple Crown voice of the racing gods.
With an emphasis on freedom, money and the American way of life on the line with every election, Leonard Raskin joins Nestor to talk about the real result of this week's election – the incredibly poor turnout of Marylanders at the polls when their uniquely earned right to vote wasn't exercised.
A pleasure to spend time with visiting NBC Sports horse racing insider Kenny Rice, who discusses all aspects of Preakness 149 and where the industry is with Bob Baffert headed back to Baltimore trying to beat the Kentucky Derby champion Mystik Dan.
Frank Vespe of The Racing Biz walks Nestor through all of the changes coming for Maryland horse racing and the future of the Preakness at Pimlico via Laurel.
