Longtime and legendary music teacher Calvin Statham schools Nestor on the love of children along with his Holabird Junior High classmate Dr. Ingrid Kohlstadt, who brought out the love for their teacher. Mr. Statham invested in every one of "his children" for five decades at Holabird and Pikesville and beyond.
It took Nestor nearly 31 years to drag his Holabird Junior High music teacher and production leader of the 1982 spring presentation of "My Fair Lady" at Dundalk Middle School onto his show. A beautiful afternoon and discussion with a man who traveled the gospel world and brought joy and the magic of music to thousands of children in Baltimore. The King of Dundalk music Calvin Statham tells Nestor how their paths crossed back in 1979 on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour at The Tasting Room at Drug City.
Fresh off of killing it at the Trifecta Food Truck Festival in Timonium, Chris Sanchirico of the R.E.M. tribute band Dead Letter Office shares his indie music love and the moves of Michael Stipe. He also talks about the passion for his beloved New York Giants. The band is playing along with The Unforgettable Fire at Recher Theatre on Saturday, March 11.
On Radio Row at Super Bowl XXXVII in San Diego in 2003, Nestor got a chance to talk Frankie and The Knockouts with drummer Tico Torres as the Bon Jovi boys were on the road during the "It's My Life" era.
The great Maryland band Of A Revolution was visiting Radio Row at the Miami Super Bowl in 2010 and local music is always better. Anyone who has ever seen O.A.R. on the lawn at Merriweather knows of the magic...
Legendary guitarist Nils Lofgren of the E Street Band joins Nestor for the first of a long series of questions and conversations about the history of Bruce Springsteen and the Super Bowl in Tampa Bay from Radio Row on the eve of their performance at Raymond James Stadium.
We've done a quarter century of Super Bowl weeks and you never know who will drop by the set. Anything Nestor can do to get Gloria Estefan and K.C. and the Sunshine Band into a conversation makes him happy from Miami Beach.
Rarely has Nestor been star struck by a rock star but the greatest voice in rock stopped him in his tracks at Super Bowl Arizona 2008. Free. Bad Company. The Firm. Jimmy Page. Queen. Paul Rodgers is a rock and roll god.
You never know who will appear on Radio Row at the Super Bowl as Nestor has learned over the years. Yanni was there for the fun and had a great sense of humor...
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.
