It’s fun, affordable and has become a Baltimore fall tradition for anyone who loves great music. Longtime 24X7 concert promoter Paul Manna gives Nestor the Trifecta Festival lineup for this year at the new Costas Inn in Timonium, right above the infield where the bands and food trucks and music lovers will gather by the thousands to rock to the best tribute bands in the region.
This is another one of the local dishes that Guy Fieri got turned on to by the locals at Slainte in Fell’s Point and now available at Kooper’s North as well. It’s heaven in a bowl. If you love gumbo, run don’t walk…

Bill Blocher and his daughter Katie discussed the evolution of Red Brick Station, which opened in 1997 with seven breweries in Maryland. Bill highlighted the growth to 160 breweries today and the success of their homemade beer. They reminisced about the early days, including Bill’s decision to make his own beer despite skepticism. Katie shared her experience of returning from New York to manage the family business, which includes a wine bar and deli. They also discussed the community’s transformation, the importance of family involvement, and the success of their unique concept, which combines a brewery, restaurant, and now a wine bar.
It’s been almost 30 years since Bill Blocher of Red Brick Station in White Marsh told Nestor that The Avenue would be better than the mall and that craft beers made in local pubs would be the craze of the next century. Like The Fonz, Nestor can always admit when he was wrong. Our Maryland Crab Cake Tour takes us back to our roots and the comfort of home – and family!

Putting cheddar cheese on a crab cake and broiling it over an English muffin?

The offseason “improvement” of the Baltimore Orioles on the field has certainly been nothing to crow about but Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the first signs of the end of The Angelos Error in the stands as Catie Griggs brings cold beer at a reasonable price at Oriole Park at Camden Yards and a new Birdland Value Menu.

As an East Baltimore lifer, Nestor Aparicio loves going to his favorite places owned by old friends. On Day 18, once he heard the Highlandtown aioli was elevated he knew he’d be seeking out his old Berkshire chum Brian Eder for some fried oysters at The Chasseur, high on the Highland Street hill at Foster.
In an effort to continue to find the most creative ways oysters are being done all over Maryland, Nestor rolled to the The Gourmet at Kenilworth – a real oyster headquarters – and found the unique Chincoteague roll with oyster and crab. Winner, winner, sushi dinner in Towson!
On Day 2 of the Maryland Oyster Tour, we stayed as local as our Towson company in paying tribute to a great Tigers player and local seafood champion Randy Bielski at Ocean Pride on York Road with a proper lunchtime shuck and slurp. Old school.

It took a little longer than we thought but the “new” Faidley’s Seafood at Lexington Market is now open.

It was April 3, 2001 and the Baltimore Ravens were the freshly minted Super Bowl XXXV champions and team president David Modell and head coach Brian Billick brought the Lombardi Trophy over to The Barn to talk football, community and how time would not dim the glory of their deeds.
Even though this is further down the list, it might be the greatest thing we’ve ever done. When Jennifer Ford Aparicio was diagnosed with leukemia in March 2014 and survived that summer watching baseball, Nestor was inspired to live out a dream and make it matter. And the 30-30 MLB Give A Spit Tour was born. In June and July of 2015, the couple swabbed for the bone marrow registry in 18 ballparks, swabbing thousands of baseball fans over 30 days and even made it Cooperstown. No rainouts, one passport forgotten, many celebrities and wonderful friends we visited and made along the way on behalf of There Goes My Hero.
On June 28, 2002, Nestor Aparicio led a return to Oriole Park at Camden Yards by the franchise’s biggest fan and larger-than-life Dundalk cab driver “Wild” Bill Hagy, who was an avid WNST listener. The two spent weeks on the air inviting by-then disgruntled Angelos Orioles watchers down to “Pack The Perch” with more than 2,000 our of listeners purchasing tickets in Sections 382-384-386-388 via a special phone number.
