Getting Bradish back to shoving Cy Young stuff

Luke Jones and Nestor discuss two outta three over the pinstripers for the Birds and Bradish back to shoving the ball every fifth day.

A Triumph of magic power and winning the good fight as Emmett (finally) puts the band back on the road

/

It’s been quite a few years of change in tone with our visits with guitarist Rik Emmett, whose Triumph music has lived in the vault of classic rock radio for four decades but the band that last toured in 1993 was brought back together again last summer through hockey and the magic power of the music. Now 72, along with Gil Moore and Mike Levine and some great musicians, they’re back on the road this spring and Nestor has a lot of questions for his Canadian baseball friend and poet about this very unexpected reunion tour.
