Big – and positive – changes are happening here at Baltimore Positive this month as we begin our amazing merger of three decades of WNST.net with our new brand this fall and you’re going to love what is about to happen to this website.

We’re about to bring forward a wide variety of guests and thought leaders and topics as we navigate all of the aspects of life during a pandemic and what it means to vote in our country. Because we haven’t been able to sit down and eat a proper crab cake at Faidley’s at Lexington Market or have some chicken and waffles at State Fare in Catonsville with our guests, we have been doing one longish episode rather than our customary three shorter blocks of conversation.

The most important message we want to send to all of our friends and listeners is to exercise your right as an American citizen and vote this November.

Eric Costello is Nestor’s councilman in the 11th district that encompasses much of downtown – and as we learned in this segment, which includes the baseball part of Camden Yards but not the Ravens football side. We spent a long stretch of this one discussing the coming massive tax shortfalls of 2020 and COVID.

Lots of issues about crime and spending and policing in this one as well.

Clearly, we voted in June. And we hope you are ready to vote again in November!

We are all in this together and this is a time to educate, unite and keep each other safe. But we also have some extra time to read and learn and educate ourselves in many ways.

We will continue to produce high-quality, intelligent conversations with wisdom from wise leaders as our citizens try to readjust to this pandemic during the summer at Baltimore Positive.

Please subscribe to Baltimore Positive and stay with us.

We’ll try to keep you cool.

Right Now in Baltimore

The Misters Robinson of Baltimore and our fractured city in 1966

The Misters Robinson of Baltimore and our fractured city in 1966

His next stage production at The BMA begins on March 5th and Dan Rodricks returns to Gertrude's for the holidays to take Nestor back to his Aparicio roots with the 1966 Baltimore Orioles winning the World Series – and the realities of the city, race, politics and a colorful upcoming show "No Mean City: Baltimore 1966."
What could two Dundalk teachers with 105 years of experience possibly still teach us about science and music?

It didn't even seem possible that colleagues Calvin Statham (59 years) and George Scheulen (46 years). who once taught Nestor at Holabird Junior High School in 1979, could still be teaching him about the important things in life beyond chorus and physics all these years later. Two beloved Baltimore County educators continue trying to tame their rambunctious student for the holidays with music and love (and crab cakes) at Costas Inn in Dundalk.

Johnny O on the lack of progress and Trump chaos and chicanery in Washington

We're all fed up and should be. Congressman Johnny Olszewski joined Nestor to discuss the lack of focus and progress on Capitol Hill and potential solutions for health care, transparency in government and the use of Trump's absurd pardons as a grifting tool.
