The Dundalk boys reunite at the bar at Costas Inn for a little rocking around the Christmas tree catch up as John Allen of Stone Horses joins lifer pal Nestor to spread some holiday cheer and music memories from the soul of the neighborhood. The miracle of music, the new heart of our friend Ed Lauer and the beat of seeing The Go-Go’s Gina Schock perform with Cyndi Lauper at the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame induction in Los Angeles. Rock and roll never forgets…
In the spirit of the holiday season, we bring friends and family together. Chesapeake chef extraordinaire and proprietor of Gertrude’s at The BMA John Shields hosts Nestor once again for a Christmas and New Year’s Eve celebration (at an hour we can all appreciate) along with former MLB outfielder Casper Wells for chat about seven fishes, sauerkraut and Pete Alonso.
This stands as a warning to anyone who invites Nestor by their place for the Maryland Crab Cake Tour: you’re an invite and a taste away because he’s en route to meet more great local folks who want to promote their business. Owner Soo Mi Kang of Honey’s in Halethorpe invited us over and must’ve known that offering “Crabby Toast” would invoke the legend of Charles Markwood Eckman. Competitive billiards, great food and the game is always on at this old-school joint on the south side.
Our annual “two old sports guys” holiday visit with longtime communications pro John Maroon came on turf very familiar to all parties: Costas Inn in Dundalk, where no one was crabby but the ramping up of artificial intelligence in the world of public relations, marketing and advertising was spicy on our tongues on the Maryland Crab Cake Tour. Always changing, always evolving…
Bringing the Maryland Crab Cake Tour back to DiPasquale’s for an Italian tour of the holidays, we knew Darren The Sausage King would bring us some seasonal favorites.

It was years in the making, finally getting Torbin Green of St. Francis Community Center to visit for a Faidley’s crab cake for the holidays. Turns out it’s a busy job serving 20,000 folks in West Baltimore with youth programs, family love and food distribution in West Baltimore. Let him tell you about the pride in the work they do and its impact in the neighborhood over generations.

The always fun Ravens scratch-off super prize winners made their way to frosty Cincinnati where even the famous chili was chilly but as Doug Lloyd of The Maryland Lottery tells Nestor, great seats, a big win and a wild adventure with a flat tire made a Cumberland memory. And everyone was a big winner on the flight home with the team from Kentucky.
Reaching back to his Italian heritage in East Baltimore, Nestor returns to DiPasquale’s in Canton to learn about the Feast Of The Seven Fishes and some Highlandtown holiday magic with legendary UMBC soccer coach Pete Caringi and friends of the family.

Yes, Faidley’s is coming to Catonsville very, very soon in the frontage of The Fishmonger’s Daughter on Frederick Road but before then you can still pay a holiday visit to Lexington Market or ship those tasty crab cakes and all of the sides and trimmings anywhere in the country this week.

Sure, we kid our pal Mark Mussina about his lifelong loyalty to the Dallas Cowboys but we’re all guilty of being addicted to a team without consequences or, in some cases, any joy at all. Good times, bad times you know we’ve had our share but our favorite brother of a Hall of Famer returns to discuss poor ownership and the self-inflicted obligation of fan support even when you know it’s hopeless.

It feels like they both have lost a lot to still be sharing first place in the AFC North but one of these two teams is likely to win the division and host a January playoff game and this Sunday’s first of two meetings will determine the fate of a pair of franchises in a strange state of malaise and fan angst. Dennis Koulatsos and Nestor discuss the Steelers and Ravens and Tomlin and Harbaugh as well as modern driver-less transportation dreams.

At one point during the 1-5 start, the Baltimore Ravens defense ranked last in the NFL. With better health, better play and the addition of two veterans by Eric DeCosta, the defense of Zach Orr appears much improved and poised to lead the team while the offense continues to try to find some rhythm behind a gimpy franchise quarterback. Luke Jones and Nestor get defensive about the marked improvement and the emergence of key young players.
