As Mike Elias prepares another “we failed again but I’m keeping my job” press conference at The Warehouse to discuss the future of a sport that doesn’t feel like it’ll even hit the field next April, Nestor Aparicio pens a “Dear Mike Elias” #ColumnNes missive before the MLB playoff games begin and you lose interest in the Baltimore Orioles and their treacherous offseason of nothingness.
Any win is a good one but the Baltimore Ravens needed to survive an onside kick late after another defensive meltdown in a game that Lamar Jackson left early with an ankle problem and a limp. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the concerns after a too-narrow-for-confidence 24-18 win over the lowly Tennessee Titans.
Longtime Meat Loaf drummer John Miceli shares tales of the myth of “Bat Out Of Hell” and the Neverland Express band as the “Celebrating Meat Loaf” group brings a special Halloween show to Rams Head in Annapolis on Saturday afternoon with the music of Jim Steinman with a Rocky Horror twist. And, finally, Nestor gets to tell the “Paradise By The Dashboard Light” Phil Rizzuto story at Merriweather Post Pavilion to the drummer who didn’t miss a beat on that fateful day in 1996.
D.C. Hip-Hop legend Priest Da Nomad educates Nestor about some Washington and Baltimore club and music history and his featured film “I Was The Weirdo” for the International Black Film Festival coming to the Pikes on October 10th.

Three decades ago when Mike Mussina was toeing the rubber at Camden Yards, his younger Mark struck up a friendship with Nestor that has lasted a lifetime. And in the week after a Baltimore Ravens’ victory over his beloved Dallas Cowboys, it was time to turn to a one-time WNST radio host when the station began 28 years ago to bring the MLB playoffs and our 28th anniversary music memory bank exploration full circle with a side order of Meat Loaf and Van Halen. And maybe some Tommy Conwell…
As the Home Run Riches seasons winds up and the Ravens scratch-off season kicks into full gear, Senior Advisor John Martin of The Maryland Lottery brings Nestor into October ready to win and learn about some new games and ways to win.
This recent gathering of old music tickets, artifacts and memories would not be complete without reaching to the guy Nestor met as a 14-year old camping out for concert tickets at the old Hecht’s at Reistertown Road Plaza. Our old Live Aid and lifer pal Richard Abrahams brings the rock and roll music memory bank to State Fare in Catonsville on the Maryland Crab Tour, adding huge contributions with tales of U2, The Alarm and The Smithereens to our 28 bands of significance as we count ’em down. Oh, and that time we camped out at The Spectrum for Rush tickets in the dead of winter of 1984…
Edgewood native and now-Nashville-based actor Johnathon Schaech returns to discuss the recent success of his Amazon series “Blue Ridge” and talk Baltimore sports with Nestor as the seasons change and the wait continues for Orioles fans everywhere.
Part biography, part civic documentary, this film uncovers the uncompromising journey of Nestor Aparicio—journalist, truth-teller, and founder of Baltimore Positive. Through battles with institutions, personal setbacks, and a stubborn commitment to his hometown, “No One Listens; Everyone Hears” shows what happens when one person refuses to stop believing in Baltimore.
We are still baffled at the direction of the Baltimore Orioles and nothing was more troubling than watching Mike Elias and Craig Albernaz make excuses without accountability (or ownership representation) at a Monday press conference at The Warehouse that their own network, social media and website didn’t air live. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the future of the franchise and the tumultuous offseason ahead for MLB as the rest of baseball watches the postseason.

Every time we visit Nashville, the downtown area and vibrancy seems to double. Now with a giant new stadium being erected and Super Bowl coming to the Music City in four years, the locals are wondering if the Tennessee Titans and their stolen colors of the Oilers will catch up to the progress on the field. As Cam Ward attempts to find success and Titans come to Baltimore a double-digit dog, we welcomed legendary Associated Press sportswriter Teresa Walker back to update us on the drip and drabs of waiting on Derrick Henry to steamroll his old franchise on Sunday.
Sure, the Baltimore Ravens should whip the hapless Tennessee Titans at home on Sunday but as Luke Jones and Nestor point out, finding a real and effective offensive line combination must be at the front of concerns as Lamar Jackson, Derrick Henry and Zay Flowers look to produce points in the coming weeks. It’s less than ideal. Just ask Eric DeCosta…
There is no one on earth better equipped to tell the story of the Houston Oilers becoming the Tennessee Titans than NFL historian and five-decade Houston Chronicle reporter John McClain, who always makes time to talk football and Hall of Fame worthiness with us. The General provides a full preview and review of how those LuvYaBlue uniforms wound up on Cam Ward on Sunday. Oh, and why the Texans stink so far…

We don’t play the Tennessee Titans as often as we used to around here but lifer Nashville sportswriter Jim Wyatt returns from the Music City for a realistic and current state of the former Houston Oilers franchise and the debate about those Luv Ya Blue threads they’re sporting and selling. But, about the winning…

While all four teams in the AFC ended Week 3 with a 2-1 mark, we’re not so sure that the surge of the Browns and resolve of the Steelers will stand the test of time or the standings. But, for now, the Ravens certainly haven’t looked the part of the dominant outfit we expected a month ago. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the center of the purple concerns on the offensive line and prepare for Titans on Sunday in Baltimore.
It’s always fun to talk baseball in October with folks who live and love the game. Former MLB outfielder Casper Wells and our trusted sponsor with The Comfort Guys, Zach Dermer join Nestor for a state of baseball and the Orioles offseason from State Fare in Catonsville on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour. We promise not to drop the ball…

The Dallas Cowboys had four chances on the 1-yard line in the final minute and still lost the game. Fans of the franchise of Jerry Jones are familiar with bad beats but so are Luke Jones and Nestor, who kick up all of the issues the Baltimore Ravens will need to resolve after their miraculous win over America’s Team in South America.

The run to Rio de Janeiro ended with an interesting Loop. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss all aspects of the Baltimore Ravens 34-31 win over the Dallas Cowboys on the foot of the kicker whose burden has been heavy since last season’s exit miss in Pittsburgh. This time, it was 56 yards and “good” on a day when the field, the play, the tackling and the run game weren’t always good enough. The guys in purple return to America from South America at 2-1. That’ll work…

Anytime we can bring our favorite baseball folks together to discuss the state of the game in the fall as the playoffs begin and the leaves change, we’re thrilled. We loved having former MLB outfielder and Towson Tigers alum Casper Wells talking seams with our longtime baseball insider Allen McCallum to debate the Orioles state of the franchise and another gloomy MLB offseason labor mess at State Fare on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour.
This week, the Maryland Lottery drew three big winners for the VIP trip to Charlotte with the Baltimore Ravens and Seth Elkin joins Nestor to get caught up on all of the current games and the season of football and fun.This week, the Maryland Lottery drew it’s three big winners for the VIP trip to Charlotte with the Baltimore Ravens and Seth Elkin joins Nestor to get caught up on all of the current games and the season of football and fun.

We don’t think much about this Baltimore Orioles “program” is working as intended. After another season where most things went
It feels like that mesh point scramble that helped propel Lamar Jackson to being a two-time MVP candidate with his wheels has been put in the shop by new Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Declan Doyle. Luke Jones and Nestor get ready for Ravens and Cowboys in Rio and talk about when No. 8 becomes a true second running threat in a game that feels like it’ll have a lot of Derrick Henry on the turf at Maracana.
Max Weiss and Ron Cassie of Baltimore Magazine return to the Maryland Crab Cake Tour at Koco’s Pub with a long-form chat about the reinvention of “Nasty Nestor” as well as their “magazine” brand and their annual selection, soiree and salute to the “Best of Baltimore” businesses, ideas and what makes the Charm City go and evolve.
