The Hispanic reach and Spanish call of Houston Texans international flavor and appeal

Baltimore Positive

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!)

Pastorini: For the glory of Luv Ya Blue and those Houston Oilers

Baltimore Positive

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.

Getting a shot in the arm of baseball knowledge from Kansas City

Baltimore Positive

Three decades of baseball and sports radio friendship with former Royals reliever Jeff Montgomery comes full circle as Nestor checks in with his Kansas City broadcast pal on the eve of another Lamar Jackson visit and talks pitching, young arms and the never-ending MLB labor wars that will be surfacing again next season.

How can we support expectant mothers with real help?

Settling your stomach about acid reflux and GERD

Baltimore Positive

We all know that awful feeling of eating too much or the wrong kinds of foods and the unpleasantness of an upset stomach.

The offseason business of last place and Camden Yards renovations for Orioles

Baltimore Positive

When it’s been as lousy as it has been for as long as it has been, we all realized the Baltimore Orioles rebuild and retool under new ownership could be a “work in progress.” Georgetown sports business professor and one-time leader of the Birdland sales and business operation Marty Conway discusses this tumultuous time in MLB for media, money and labor peace whilst Camden Yards gets renovated and David Rubenstein tries to figure out a baseball franchise presumably with Mike Elias still picking players.

The Bills Mafia fund for Mark Andrews is over $146,624 and you need to meet one of the kids who made it happen

Nestor Aparicio

This will be the best story of “Buffalo” week. Last winter, we met Ryan Patota and Nicholas Howard, who began a Go Fund Me page for juvenile diabetes awareness after Mark Andrews’ infamous drop against the Bills and the online bullying began in the aftermath of a tough playoff loss for the Baltimore Ravens. Nestor welcomes the heroic young Patota back onto the show to tell his special journey in life and why you’ll want to help support this aspiring sports journalist’s efforts for Breakthrough. Watch and be inspired!

David Rubenstein Orioles owner

Dear David Rubenstein: I really believed things were going to be different with “The Next Chapter” of Orioles history – but I was wrong so far

Nestor Aparicio

I’m still “under review” and denied media credentials. You’re still under review by every fan of the Baltimore Orioles and every citizen who chipped in $600 million toward your $1.725 billion asset. Be a better person and a better baseball owner than Peter Angelos. Be the noise for truth, accountability and decency. Make “The Next Chapter” a truly inclusive one, David.

Dear Steve Bisciotti: Ask Chad Steele what he thinks I said about Sage so I can tell Ravens fans why I was really exterminated

Nestor Aparicio

“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.

Sweating the Labor of Maryland

Baltimore Positive

The business of Maryland business is jobs and putting people to work in our state. Portia Wu is the Maryland Department of Labor Secretary and joins Nestor to talk economy, the local workforce and the threat of federal cuts on this side of the DMV, where more citizens serve Washington, D.C. than anywhere else.

Adding wings to more flights and heights in Wicomico County

Baltimore Positive

Adding up the numbers of Maryland Lottery revenue

Baltimore Positive

Every year at the MACo event in Ocean City, John Martin and Seth Elkin of The Maryland Lottery give Nestor a full report and where all of the dough goes through casino and sports wagering and the many streams of revenue and distribution for the state’s gambling agency. It’s more interesting than you think…

Facing I.C.E. and not playing nice with fascists

Baltimore Positive

We always discuss housing and urban development with Councilwoman Odette Ramos but when the I.C.E. folks are randomly targeting Latinos and Trump has taken over Washington D.C. with force, you can expect the only elected Latina in Baltimore City to have a lot of questions for masked federal agents terrorizing our local communities and citizens of color.

A life in MLB ballparks brought to life

Baltimore Positive

When you spent 16 summers in every ballpark chronicling the Pirates and Twins as a local ballpark reporter, you see the innards of every stadium and clubhouse in baseball. Our longtime South Philly pal, who has traveled the regional sports network pathway en route to Pittsburgh, comes back to Baltimore to talk about his first gigs as an in-stadium hype man for the Bowie Baysox and Baltimore Blast. MLB reporter Robby Incmikoski tells Nestor about his newest project and book of photographs and stories about what makes big league baseball diamonds so special to the men who play the game.

Dela Where and Tax What? Dewey stay or Dewey go?

Baltimore Positive

After a recent quick trip to rock out with Tommy Conwell and The Young Rumblers at the Bottle & Cork in Dewey Beach, Delaware opened his eyes to the incredible growth of the “Lower Shore” of our neighboring “tax-free” state, Nestor asked financial advisor Leonard Raskin why he bought a place in Bethany Beach instead of Ocean City – or anywhere on the Maryland side. The taxes don’t lie…

He wrote the book on Ghislaine Maxwell and criminal mind that created The Epstein Files

Baltimore Positive

Forty years ago at The News American in Baltimore, then-sportswriter Barry Levine was a colleague of Nestor and went on to a life of award-winning journalism investigating all sorts of celebrity mysteries and criminals.
