Venerable columnist Dan Rodricks returns for a now-annual Maryland Crab Cake Tour stop at Gertrude’s at The Baltimore Museum of Art, the same setting where his amazing play “Baltimore, You Have No Idea” will come back to life this week for one more run before he writes another production with a 1966 baseball and Charm City theme he’s keeping mostly a secret.

Author and baseball historian Lee Kluck joins Nestor to discuss his new book on life and baseball legacy of Harry Dalton, who was instrumental in the Oriole Way of the 1960s in Baltimore before recreating the California Angels and Milwaukee Brewers two decades later.

We always find it rather comical that the Orioles and Angelos family nitpicks with Major League Baseball about the City Connect jerseys. In the modern era, everything the franchise does attempts to “reconnect” with the Baltimore fan base that it spent years alienating and subjugating by pampering to Washington baseball fans with the lack of the hometown city name on the road jerseys. Our radio station, hosts and listeners spent the first decade of our existence as the hometown sports radio station trying to explain to Peter Angelos why “BALTIMORE” across the crests of the visiting grays was not just a marketing ploy or a sales pitch, but a way of life for the home team.
Dick Jerardi joins Nestor to discuss Happy Valley, Terps season, Big 10 hoops and Kentucky Derby hopefuls
Luke Jones and Nestor wax nostalgic about the World Series, the Orioles and the WBC
Spending a March evening in State College waiting on Bruce Springsteen and watching Nittany Lions fans prepare for basketball March Madness, Nestor noticed the wrestling thing and asked the longtime basketball color voice of Happy Valley Dick Jerardi to explain “We Are” and talk Big 10 basketball, Bob Baffert and Kentucky Derby hopefuls.
When Nestor discovered a treasure trove of 1966 World Series heirlooms in the Shrewsbury hometown of his partner Luke Jones, it was time to wax nostalgic about the World Series, the Orioles and the WBC and all that could be once again. Can Adley Rutschman and Gunnar Henderson bring back that old black and orange magic?
Nearly a decade after the death of Orioles Hall of Fame manager Earl Weaver, author John Miller reached to Nestor to discuss the last interview that No. 4 ever granted. Miller outlines his tales and research on the life and times of the greatest skipper the Birds ever had.
So just how did Earl Weaver get into managing and become a baseball legend in Baltimore? Nestor wondered too…so he asked him!
When the legendary Baltimore Orioles outfielder died in 2019, it was hard to find this clip but it made us smile when we did. And this 1992 picture is only one he could find from when the Hall of Famer umpired the “Broadcast vs. Print Media Baseball Game” at Camden Yards.
