With the rush or reluctance to roll out cannabis programs in many states around the country, our chief Cannabis Officer Wendy Bronfein of Curio Wellness discusses how Maryland measures up against other places as her vision and Timonium-based family business moves into Mississippi and Missouri. We always learn when she returns...
The reality of the Pittsburgh Steelers game is that many of the starters will have to play four quarters. Dennis Koulatsos joins Nestor to make the argument that maybe that isn't such a bad thing. As long as No. 8 is ready to go in two weeks, the Ravens can win a Super Bowl.
We're still in the process of trying to recover the actual two-hour interview from Putty Hill Station in November 2004, but we remember this is the night that "Prime" rolled into Parkville with then-backup quarterback Kordell "Slash" Stewart (one-time star of the Pittsburgh Steelers) to make it a Hall of Fame evening for Ravens fans. We'll find the tape. Soon. We hope...
We all love our New Year's resolutions to be more healthier every January. So in the spirit of your future, Quinton Dailey of Planet Fitness joins Nestor to discuss today being the perfect day to start a new health journey. Time to get moving...
Nestor remembers the Pittsburgh hotel manager howling when the Baltimore AM sports radio wackjob guy told her he was gonna bring a thousand people in purple to her fancy corporate wedding ballroom for four hours to drink beer and prepare to eliminate the Steelers from the AFC Championship Game. The game didn't go well in 2009 or 2011 but we threw a helluva party up there with 'yins. Our WNST Roadtrips could affect everything but the outcome for #RavensFlock.
Originally published in 2019, a fond, personal farewell to the "other" No. 5 of Baltimore sports. Time will not dim the glory of his Super Bowl MVP deeds with the Baltimore Ravens. Joe Flacco is cool again in Cleveland so perhaps this is worth another look?
Luke Jones and Nestor preview the realities of this meaningless game against the Pittsburgh Steelers and the wide variety of Pro Bowl standouts named by the NFL this week.

Luke Jones and Nestor debate who sits against Pittsburgh and the Ravens' grand plan for a successful January run at the Super Bowl with lofty expectations.

In an industry that has been famously and dangerously slow to change, the future of the Maryland Jockey Club, Preakness, Pimlico and Laurel is about to change dramtically and forever. Nestor had a lot of questions – and historical perspective – for David Richardson and Alan Foreman, who try to answer all of the mystery surrounding the Stronach family, the local tracks and the future of the second crown of horse racing's Triple Crown at Old Hilltop in Baltimore.
Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Orioles stacking wins against the New York Yankees and beating "Nasty" Nestor Cortes with a great effort from Dean Kremer and a depleted bullpen on Tuesday night at Camden Yards.
