The Maryland Crabs Podcast: Recent Episodes
The Maryland Crabs
Did the Governor pull a boneheaded move? Does a new national policy affect you? What are the best things to do in Annapolis? Who can stir the pot and who can calm it down? Tune into The Maryland Crabs and find out. Maryland's ESSENTIAL Podcast!
We've got three months to go before we vote for a new governor. And subsequent to the big-party primaries in July, most Marylanders are thinking that they face a stark choice limited to Democratic and Republican candidates who represent the very best or the very worst of the two parties, depending on how you look at it. But there ARE other voices out there. In this podcast, Tim sits with two of the more interesting voices out there, 1) Jerome Segal, who is founder of Bread & Roses Socialism, ran for Governor in the Democratic primary, and is now running for President against Joe Biden, and 2) David Lashar, the Libertarian Party candidate for Maryland Governor this fall. It was a good coversation between three people with different political views but a common passion for civil debate on both general philosophy and specific issues.
We've entered election season with just slightly over three months until we vote for a new governor. We're a solid-blue state that does not shy away from electing moderate Republicans. So the two major parties generally suck the air out of the room, leaving little for other candidates. That means that we rarely get to hear new ideas and perspectives. Tim sat down a couple of days before the primaries to chat with two gubanatorial cadidates...Jerome Segal, a Socialist who ran on the Democratic ticket (and is now running for President of the United States) and David Lashar, a Libertarian who ran for Congress during the last election. It was a good conversation between three people with different perspectives on politics who may agree here and there.
This is a Crabcake from The Maryland Crabs! What is a Crabcake? Well, it's a very short snippet of something you need to know. It might be 5 minutes long..or it might be 20....we don't have any kind of plan. In any event, enjoy your Maryland Crabcake!
It's not the Christmas season until Paula Poundstone comes to Rams Head on Stage ! This year, she will be in town for two shows on December 18. Tim and Paula are now best friends (probably) since they chat around this time every year. This time, we covered surviving the COVID lockdown, kids and social media, Twitter, cats (which is de rigueur at this point), and the release of her new album, "Paula Goes to College (for one night only)." We also talk more about her hilarious weekly podcast, No One Listens to Paula Poundstone.

The transition to civilian life is not easy, and it can be daunting when considering a complete career change. Chow is a nonprofit designed to provide services for military veterans through cooking therapy, cookware donations, culinary education, and business advice for anyone from home chefs to aspiring food truck or restaurant owners. In this episode, Tim talks with Jordan Foley, a Naval Academy graduate, still on active duty, who founded Chow and completely eschews sleep.
When you are tired of Zoom podcasts and the weather is beautiful and there is a big picnic table outside--you get together in PERSON and record a beercast!
This week, Cassie, Lauren and Bill from Katcef Brothers Inc. are in the flesh and we relish getting socially distant together!
What's on tap this month? Football, seltzers and the warning that there will be peppermint and gingerbread flavored ones on the horizon (yuk). Bud Light Platinum now has a seltzer too along with an alcohol free Bud Zero.
We also touch base on the Golden Goat Ultimate Bud Light Tailgate Giveaway. Details are right here and the odds are good!
Despite the lack of events, there is a lot going on in the world of beer. And speaking of events--the Military Bowl tells us that they are planning to move forward so ... stay tuned!
Just because our local Oktoberfests have been cancelled along wth the real Oktoberfest is no reason that we can't start thinking about the delicious fall beers and the team at Katcef Brothers Inc teases us a little bit with a Spaten-Devils Backbone collaboration.
We also hit on Cutwater's international tequila award and marvel at how well Bud LIght Seltzer contines to do with the intro of three nw flavors--pineapple, cranberry, and grapefruit.
September 18th is Global Beer Responsibility Day and I am searching Hallmark for a card... but locally, you want to stay tuned to Eye On Annapolis and Katcef Brothers for a fun promotion this fall that could score you a wild tailgate party....when we can do that again! :(
Enjoy and cheers!
Sing Second Sports popped on my radar about 2 months ago and after two episodes I was hooked! These guys have found a great way to dig deep into Navy Athletics. From football to baseball to basketball to water polo to intramural soccer.
Academy grads, Ward Carroll and Chris Servello are joined by former USNA PAO John Schofield to bring it all to you with a fan's ardor and an insider's connection.
We sit down, and talk about the podcast, the sports (had no idea there were THAT many), their past guests, and future hopefuls. Oh and we crystal ball the Navy Vs Notre Dame game scheduled for Labor Day weekend!

Travis Pastrana never rests.
If he is not racing, jumping, building a stunt, or chasing down his two daughters, you can probably be sure he's working on something new. And we caught up with him to find out!
Enter Circuit 199 in Sudlersville. It's a state of the art racing facility to train top drivers and to teach the new batch. It's a Progression Park where FMX, BMX, and skateboarders can hone their skills and take them to the next level. And it's a Pump Track and skills course to promote fitness to youth using the track for bicycles, skateboards, or scooters. And of course there is plenty of other entertainment planned as well.
When Travis brought Nitro Circus here in 2017 it meant the world to him to finally perform at home. And now he wants to continue giving back to Maryland--his home.
Circuit 199 could open as early as next spring, but the target is to be open by 2022.
Have a listen and get excited!

The Class of 2020 is ending their high school or college life in a weird time. The job market is questionable. The stock market is questionable. And we are in the midst of a pandemic. Without a doubt, it is a tough time; but also without a doubt, our young adults graduating this year will overcome this and thrive--we're counting on it. And today we have some help.
Sarah Ryan is the Head of Community Outreach for SECU (formerly known as the State Employee's Credit Union) and she has perhaps the greatest gift we can give our graduates--some financial thoughts to savings and the future. We talk about the work SECU is doing in the community and for their members (it's pretty easy to be a member); but she gives some solid suggestions for gifts for today's graduates that will change their financial world!

Last September, we spoke with Larry Bradshaw who is the CEO of National Lutheran Communities & Services and the man behind the project now known as The Village at Providence Point in Annapolis. A lot has happened since then and today, we check in with Bradshaw as the project seems to be headed into the final stretch of the approval process.
Today we learned that they has submitted their plans to the City of Annapolis after working with the Stop Crystal Springs (opposition group) and the City to address most of the concerns. There are two remaining concerns that are still undecided as it is a decision (guidance) that needs to be provided by the City. If all goes well, Bradshaw thinks that construction might be able to start in the early part of 2022.
While on the same property, this is NOT anywhere close to the same project as Crystal Springs. Along with a change of names to The Village at Providence Point, this project has been downsized in the number of residents and in the general footprint of the project.

When you hear the term "cyber security" you immediately think of large companies and governments. But if you own, or are involved with, a small business or organization you need to consider it as well.
Ardalyst is cyber defense firm in West Annapolis who works with various government agencies and many small businesses to make sure their business or organization is never crippled by the very technology you depend on to keep you up and running.
Have a listen, you might be surprised where the vulnerabilities lie--I was.
We've been stuck in our houses for the past five years now...or at least it feels like it. As every possible commercial has mentioned in the past few weeks, "we are in uncertain times." We're sick of hearing that. Of course, we're sick of a lot of stuff right now. So how do you fight through the negativity and make the whole situation manageable and, dare we say it....enjoyable? Tim talks with Dr. Tom Muha, founder of the Propel Institute and weekly columnist for the Capital for the past thirty years, about how to change your frame of mind to meet this unprecedented challenge.

If you ever told me that we'd do a podcast about the importance of the 2020 Census and somehow it morphed into a discussion about the Rocky Horror Picture Show and Philly Cheesesteaks, I'd have never believed you! But it happened!

For two months in a row, we are off the rails, but with good reason! First, there's a pandemic! Second, this was all recorded from a Zoom call. And third, most all of what we wanted to talk about has been canceled or postponed! So, we punted and talks about coping, about what Budweiser is doing from a corporate level to help out America. And what Katcef Brothers is doing to help out our own community. Let's just say that Betsy Ross has NOTHING on these guys!
Please have a listen!
We are all in this together! As businesses are (for the most part) shuttered, we wanted to catch up with Steve Samaras from Zachary's Jewelers to talk about a video series he has created and to find out how Zachary's is doing during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
If there ever was a man who sees the positive in a tough situation it is Steve who was burned out of his store 15 years ago the day after Thanksgiving, survived the recession of 2008 and now the COVID-19 virus.
Aside from keeping all of his employees working, to cutting Constance Polamalu (who joined us on the call) loose to develop a new e-commerce business model with virtual appointments, while maintaining the Zachary's model of customer service.
But more importantly, with some time on his hands, Steve and his wife Challie have been visiting their favorite places around town and explaining why there is such love--a One Love for Annapolis.
If you are a bit down about this pandemic, have a listen, and be sure to check out the videos on Steve's Facebook Page --the link is below!

We are in uncharted waters, folks. Between cable news and social media, there is an avalanche of information, innuendo, and speculation coming in. It's exhausting and scary. So John and Tim decided to practice some social distancing and call a bunch of people to talk about what's going on over Facebook Live. It was a busy one. Go to All Annapolis on Facebook to watch Saturday's broadcast.
We started with Maryland Comptroller Peter Franchot to see what the state has been doing up to this point and what is planned next. Steuart Pittman, Anne Arundel County Executive, was up next to talk about business assistance as well as public safety, followed by Annapolis Mayor Gavin Buckley who let us know what this this means to our tourism-based business community.
Katie Redmiles of Maryland Hall for the Performing Arts introduced "Pay It Forward to the Arts" to help both businesses affected, as well as our arts community. Monica Alvarado, owner of Bread and Butter Kitchen in Eastport, talked about what they are doing to help the community and their employees during this business shutdown. Heritage Baptist Church, on Forest Drive, has always been front and center when it comes to meeting the needs of the community, and this time is no exception. Pastor Scott Shelton talks about their food pantry and the best way people can contribute.
What does this mean for businesses? Jared Littman, owner of K&B True Value and former Ward 5 Alderman, talks about what they are doing to serve the community as an essential business and what he is doing to protect employees. Small business owners are being hit particularly hard. Denise Pearson, owner and proprietor of Paradise Float Spa in Eastport, has shut down completely until this crisis ends. What does this mean to people in her shoes? Jeff Jacobs, owner of the iconic family business, Carrol's Creek, has also shut down restaurant for the duration. Some of his employees have been with him for decades, and wait until what you hear what is doing for them! And finally, we end on a positive note when we chat with Kimario Ballyntine, a server at 49 West, located in Inner West Street. Yes, he's out of work amidst a global pandemic, but he is incredibly upbeat and positive, and his attitude is infectious! In a good way.

We're talking weed again! Caroline Phillips joins us for the fourth time (even though we said third when recording) to talk about the National Cannabis Festival coming to RFK on April 18th.
Now in it's 5th year, the festival has grown from a single day with 5,000 attendees to a two day affair with a FREE policy summit on the Friday April 17th to the festival on the 18th expected to draw more than 25,000 advocates, educators, legislators, and those just looking to learn a lot more.
Yes it is a fun time, but as the push for legal cannabis moves across the US, there are more and more questions and a greater need for education!
We also hop on the phone with two industry experts....Lucas Hale from Curaleaf, a national company that is involved with every step of marijuana from growing to dispensing to distributing. And also, Warren Lemley from Peake Releaf which is a locally owned dispensary in Rockville, MD. Both were a wealth of information and both will be at the festival on April 18th!
As to the festival, this year you can expect more advocacy, more education, more music, more vendors, more food, and pretty much more of everything.
Have a listen and get all of your information on the National Cannabis Festival website!
Note to self: The cannabis industry is very punny!

Joining us is Cassie Mabery from Katcef Brothers (Budweiser distributor) and Dave Thomas who is the Hitch Director for the world famous Budweiser Clydesdales.
We plopped down at Heroes Pub for a beer and a bite and talked about the matchup between North Carolina and Temple on Friday December 27th at noon; but we also hit on Military Bowl Eve and the Miracle on Annapolis Street, a wine walk, pub crawl, and scavenger hunt!
We talked about the parade, the best spots to see the clydesdales and the 8 Medal of Honor recipients who will be in town and of course the free tailgate being held at Navy Marine Corps Memorial Stadium . We even learned the names of the ten clydesdales that will be visiting us.
And finally, your last chance to nominate a hero and possibly win a VIP experience at the game is happening on Friday December 20th at the Boatyard Bar & Grill from 5pm to 7pm.

Heroes Pub was busy (as it always is) so there is some background noise--tried to reduce it as much as we can, but you are an understanding group!
25 years and going strong! Lights on the Bay--brought to you by the SPCA of Anne Arundel County.
We sat down with Kelly Brown who is the President and Executive Director for the SPCA of Anne Arundel County to talk about the magic that happens at Sandy Point State Park between Thanksgiving and New Years.
We rambled on about the history, what's involved in setting it up, what to expect, and of course we talked about puppies, kittens and more!
Shawn Noratel, the Creative Director (and Co-Founder) of Liquified Creative, was also on hand and he is the brain behind the incredible ads you have seen and for the show. We talked a bit about Liquified and how they became one of the leading sponsors for Lights on the Bay, and really what drives them to get involved with so many area non-profits! (Spoiler: Stay tuned, we are working with Liquified Creative on a cool new project for 2020)
Lights on the Bay is $20 per carload and there are a number of special nights and discount coupons out there--and we talk about all that as well.

When it comes to health insurance, Tim is an idiot. In fact, let's face it, a lot of people are. Everyone has a strong opinion about the Affordable Care Act, but few could actually explain what it means. That's where the Maryland Health Benefit Exchange comes in. Tim sits down with Executive Director, Michelle Eberle, who patiently explains what the MHBE does and what it means to your healthcare as a Marylander.

Today, we continue our monthly series (no set schedule other than monthly) about beer. We have a huge distributer of beer right here in Annapolis--Katcef Brothers Inc. and they have a ton of experts on hand to de-mystify beer for us. Now, full disclosure--I like beer! I like beer a lot! But, I am not a beer snob and a Bud Light will suit me just fine.
This month is not so much about beer. Well, OK Budweiser Black Lager, but... it is all about heroes. Once again, Katcef Brothers and the Military Bowl have teamed up and want to know who your hero is so you can have a shot at a VIP experience at the Military Bowl. See below for dates and locations!
But we also talk to a real hero today. Rocky Sickmann was a Marine who spent 444 days in captivity in Tehran in the Iranian Hostage Crisis back in 1979. Today, he is retired from a civilian life with Budweiser and spearheads the company's relationship to Folds of Honor which provides scholarships to to the millions of military dependents affected by war.As Rocky says-- Freedom is not free.
Rocky will be at the Navy SMU game this Saturday where he along with Katcef Brothers will present a check to Folds of Honor!

Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream. And so did Tee Adams! And in January, on Dr. King's birthday, that dream will become a reality with the performance of an original musical at Maryland Hall-- The Other Side of King: A Musical.
Adams and playwright Kevin Smith have put together a musical snapshot of the Dr. King few know--the man at home, at church, and at the barber shop. All accompanied by a 50 voice choir!
The performance is FREE at Maryland Hall on January 15, 2020. Tickets are not yet available, so keep your ears open.
But, their other venture is coming up at Maryland Hall-- An Open Mic Night -- A Tribute to 90s R&B featuring Tao Soprano from Dru Hill! Tickets are available now for the November 21st evening at the Bowen Theater at Maryland Hall.
As for this crabcake--have a listen as we speak with two of the visionaries that are working with the community to bring Art For All!
And... if you are planning an event and need some lighting.... check out the magic that Mama Tee does with lights at Light It Up With Triple A!
And Kevin aside from writing this musical, he handles artist and music management for various music artists with his company Project 1440.
Do we live in dangerous times or are we just being scared by a constant stream of stories and images by a ubiquitous mass media, bent on ratings? Either way, you don't want to take any chances. You need to be aware of your surroundings at all times and be ready to defend yourself.
John and Tim sit down with Todd Rosenthal, a security expert currently working as security director for a multinational government contractor, who has been trained in all aspects of personal security. We talk about what you can do to keep you and your family safe at home, at work, and while out and about. Do you think you know what to do in a crisis? You'd better.

City Dock in Annapolis has been studied to death. About the only thing that everyone can agree upon is that a parking lot is not the best use.
Last year, after a political firestorm placed City Dock on an endangered watchlist by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, the parties came together. The City of Annapolis, the non-profit Historic Annapolis, and all of the various constituents (92 of them) have been working for nearly a year to re-imagine the area and are about to release that plan for adoption and implementation.
This plan has a great chance of working for a number of reasons. Have a listen as we talk about it with Eileen Fogarty and Bill Kardash who are the co-chairs of the City Dock Action Committee!

Have you noticed? The Annapolis Towne Centre is changing! More live music...pop up shops...art exhibitions...a car show...a Fall Fest...a Fire & Ice Winter Festival...and a new Santa's Workshop.

We all have bucket lists. Tim wants to find proper New York pizza in Maryland. John would love to find a podcasting partner who isn't allergic to work. We can all dream. But "100 Things to Do in Annapolis and the Eastern Shore Before You Die" by Susan Moynihan is the ultimate Maryland bucket list!
Susan moved to Annapolis when she was 13, and her best coming-of-age memories are here. She moved to NYC after college, but Annapolis was always home, albeit for shorter bits of time: Christmas break, two weeks in summer, spring or fall weekends as work and life allowed.
In 2018 she moved back to Annapolis, and found her hometown familiar, but different. She wanted to get to know it on a deeper level, so she went to her go-to: writing. She spent six months researching this book, driving all over Annapolis and the Eastern Shore, talking to old friends and making new ones, revisiting longtime favorites and searching out surprises.

It's controversial. The HPV vaccine. Some say it will prevent cancer. Others are not so sure. In the summer of 2018 (41 episodes ago) we spoke with Josh Mazer, an Annapolis resident, who questions the vaccine's effectiveness, the studies behind it, and the manner in which it is marketed.
His episode was controversial to say the least.
We were contacted by the producers of the 2014 film, Someone You Love: The HPV Epidemic refuting much of what Mazer said. We offered to do an additional podcast from their point of view; yet never received a reply.
But there are two sides to each story. So here we are!
In the past year, Mazer has continued his research and has more doubts and questions. We brought in Dr. Michael Freedman from Evolve Medical Clinics to balance it out and offer a medical perspective.
This episode, is a little ok, who are we kidding, it's a LOT long, but compelling as the two confront and rebuke each other.
In the end, the controversy continues and the general consensus is that the HPV shot (like any vaccine) should be a decision made by parents and their children's doctors.
One important takeaway is that we all agree that pharmaceutical companies should NOT be incentivizing medical practitioners to sell their drugs!
Sit back, and have a listen--we brought the mud and oil!

He's a keyboard legend and he picked Maryland Hall to start his North American Grumpy Old Rock Star Tour! Rick Wakeman, keyboardist for Yes, author, writer, and yes--comedian chats with me before he hops on a plane over the pond.
The show is Saturday, September 21st at Maryland Hall at 8pm.
What to expect? Something completely different and beautiful musically; mixed in with some irreverence and talk about the humor in his life. Today we learn that he will probably have a new couch when he returns and what makes him the Grumpy Old Rock Star!
And disappointingly, I suggested he do an intimate performance in my living room--and he politely declined!

In May of 2017 we spoke with Larry Bradshaw who is the CEO of National Lutheran Communities & Services and the man behind the project now known as The Village at Providence Point in Annapolis. Today, we check in with Bradshaw as the project starts to gel up and move through the approval process.
Today we learned that they are accepting deposits (more than 100 so far) and construction could begin in early 2021. They have addressed the four main issues their opponents have cited--traffic, environment, drainage, and tree canopy. And they have been working with the City to address their most recent submission and the comments surrounding it.
While on the same property, this is NOT anywhere close to the same project as Crystal Springs. Along with a change of names to The Village at Providence Point, this project has been downsized in the number of residents and in the general footprint of the project.

The new Annapolis Police Chief Edward Jackson might be new in town, but he is a seasoned veteran when it comes to law enforcement, as he spent twenty years in the Baltimore Police Department, working his way up from a officer walking the beat to colonel. Chief Jackson marks a change in tack by Mayor Gavin Buckley who wanted a chief who could connect with the community and identify the subtleties of policing a town as diverse and unique as Annapolis.
John and Tim sat down with Chief Jackson to talk about where he came from and what he sees as his role as Annapolis' top cop. How will his strategy be different from his predecessors? What does community policing look like under his leadership? Why would he agree to sit down with us, considering The Curse of the Maryland Crabs in regards to police chiefs? Can Tim hold his gun? We answer all of these questions and more!

This is a Crabcake from The Maryland Crabs! What is a Crabcake? Well, it's a very short snippet of something you need to know. It might be 5 minutes long..or it might be 20....or longer in this case, because..well...beer! In any event, enjoy your Maryland Crabcake!
Today, we continue our monthly series (no set schedule other than monthly) about beer. We have a huge distributer of beer right here in Annapolis--Katcef Brothers Inc. and they have a ton of experts on hand to de-mystify beer for us. Now, full disclosure--I like beer! I like beer a lot! But, I am not a beer snob and a Bud Light will suit me just fine.
This month, the team at Katcef is only giving up a taste of the fall beers--they will come out in force next month. But we do try Devil's Backbone O'Fest and Victory's Fest Bier.We broke some news about the Clydesdales and this year's Military Bowl, but we also talked about a bunch of festivals you need to put on your calendar to really experience the fall beer scene! And in chronological order....
- Bud Light and Navy Football's Golden Ticket Giveaway *
- The Annapolis Maritime Museum's Boatyard Beach Bash
- Annapolis Market Space Fall Fest
- West Annapolis Oktoberfest
-
Annapolis Sail Boat Show Block Party
-
Friday, September 13 at Buffalo Wild Wings. 5pm to 7pm. The Bud Light Brigade will be there with swag, giveaways, and your chance to win FOUR tickets to see Navy Football take on ECU on Saturday! And, it includes parking. Bud Light will be around town every Friday before a Navy home game looking to give away the Bud Light Golden Tickets! Keep your eyes peeled for them!
It sounds a bit like a device you might see advertised on late night television-- Lifeline 100. Might even be a new hospital reality show. But it is anything but that.
Now in its sixth year, Lifeline 100 is the brainchild of Bike AAA and Anne Arundel County Recreation and Parks Department. It is a 100 mile bike ride that covers all corners of the county. But for those (me) not even close to being in shape to ride 100 miles, there are shorter routes--60 miles, 30 miles, 15 miles, and for the kids a bike rodeo! It is a fundraiser for several non-profits and many local businesses get in on the game. It all get started at Kinder Farm Park on Sunday, October 6th!
We talked with Colleen Joseph from the Recreation and Parks Department and get the scoop.
Looking to ride with a group? Join ours! Send me an email message at info@themarylandcrabs.com. We're doing the ALL TRAIL 30 mile ride and likely the additional 10 mile BWI trail for a total of 40. Start about 8am, guaranteed to be having beers by 1pm. Join us on Sunday, October 67th for Lifeline 100?

OK, right up front, this is not an upbeat crabcake. Not by a long shot! But it is a conversation we need to have. Suicide rates are on the increase at alarming rates and treating the mental issues that cause suicide need to be enhanced.
This week is National Suicide Prevention Week.
We sat down with Kat Olbrich who is the Area Director for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and Dean D'Camera, a local businessman whose brother committed died by suicide fourteen years ago. We talk about the problem, what is currently being done, and what still remains. We learn what YOU can do when you suspect someone may be in trouble.
And we learn how you can help. The easiest way it to come out to the Annual Out of the Darkness Walk on September 21st at the Navy Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. If you can, form a team and raise some much needed funds. If you can't, please come out and support and walk with 2000 others that have been impacted by suicide. As Dean says in the podcast, Kevin Bacon has six degrees of separation--suicide has one!

It's happening again! Anne Arundel County Recreation and Parks is sponsoring a full-on festival at Quiet Waters Park complete with bands, artists, food trucks, vendors, and... wait for it... Maryland Wines and Maryland Craft Beer! It's Twist and Stout!
What's so unusual is that large events with alcohol are usually prohibited. And to make it more unusual, most festivals never have access to the beauty that is Quiet Waters Park. Join us as we talk with Colleen Joseph from the County about the festival, what they learned last year, and what's in store for this year!
Save the date-- Saturday, September 28, 2019 from Noon to 6pm at Quiet Waters Park in Annapolis --- Twist and Stout!

Transportation is changing. We are hearing talks about autonomous vehicles fifty years down the road; but in the here and now, we have electric vehicles.
Elvia Thompson the founder of Annapolis Green joins us with Divesh Gupta who is the Director of Strategy | Utility of the Future for BGE.
Annapolis Green is bringing more than 70 electric vehicles to City Dock in Annapolis on June 14th for the 7th Annual Electric Vehicle Showcase. This is your chance to kick the tires and batteries of today's electric vehicles. Chat up the owners and get all those doubts out of your head!
There will be sport cars, family cars, motorcycles, police cars and even a bus from BGE.
And speaking of BGE, Divesh discusses the newest initiative from BGE--installing 500 charging stations in their service area. The first one was just installed last week at the Pip Moyer Recreation Center right here in Annapolis.
Have a listen. See how easy (and affordable) owning an electric vehicle can be, and then make sure you head on down to the Annapolis City Dock on June 14th from 11am to 5pm!
For a moment, imagine that you are hearing the phone ring and dreading another telemarketer call. Now imagine that same phone ringing tomorrow--but you cannot hear it!
That happened to Annapolis resident, Jacob Landis, at age 9. With no answers as to why he went deaf, his family embarked on a journey that ended with Jacob betting a cochlear implant to regain his hearing.
But Jacob's journey continued. He wanted to give this gift to others and six years ago embarked on a fund raising bike ride to all MLB stadiums to raise money for implants for others. He raised $180,000.
But his journey continues today. After three more cross country rides, Jacob and his foundation, Jacob's Ride have funded cochlear implants for 16 individuals. But there are 12 on the waiting list and he can use your help.
You can share his story. You can attend the Celebration by the Bay on September 21st, or you can simply donate. Imagine how beautiful the sound of a telemarketer calling truly is.
Please listen as we speak with Jacob (and for a minute, his father Randy) about his loss of hearing and how a kid from Admiral Heights is making a difference in the lives of many!

This is a Crabcake from The Maryland Crabs! What is a Crabcake? Well, it's a very short snippet of something you need to know. It might be 5 minutes long..or it might be 20....or longer in this case, because..well...beer! In any event, enjoy your Maryland Crabcake!
Today, Tim is on the phone with John Shields, who is been called the "Culinary Ambassador of the Chesapeake Bay." Aside from being the owner of Gertrude's Chesapeake Kitchen at the Baltimore Museum of Art, John has written multiple cookbooks on the cuisine of the Chesapeake region. The host of PBS’s "Chesapeake Bay Cooking" and "Coastal Cooking with John Shields", his work has appeared in The New York Times, the Washington Post, Coastal Living, and Southern Living. He is a frequent guest on WYPR radio, local TV and at public events.
John's newest book, The New Chesapeake Kitchen was released in October, 2018. Here, John’s decades of exploring and championing the Chesapeake region are presented in a volume that articulates his essential philosophy, as well as his commitment to, and love for the Chesapeake—its land and waters, its people, its history, and its food traditions.
Thank you to Ann Alsina, principal at Covington-Alsina in Annapolis, for allowing Tim to take over your conference room for a couple of hours. And we apologize in advance, because he plans on making a habit out of it.
Infertility. It is a problem that many people face for any number of reasons. There are a number of ways to deal with it including adoption and In Vitro Fertilization. But what about surrogacy?
This week, John speaks with Becky Morgan and Perla Piekutowski from the Center for Surrogate Parenting right here in Annapolis. What does it take to be a surrogate, and more importantly, what to expect when you are looking to start a family by surrogacy. The process is complex, but in the end worth it.

- Security
- Beer and BBQ (yes you can buy beer in the stadium)

Today, we continue our monthly series (no set schedule other than monthly) about beer. We have a huge distributer of beer right here in Annapolis--Katcef Brothers Inc. and they have a ton of experts on hand to de-mystify beer for us. Now, full disclosure--I like beer! I like beer a lot! But, I am not a beer snob and a Bud Light will suit me just fine.
Summer is waning! But we're not letting go just yet! This month we talk about a flavorless spiked seltzer (let that sink in for a minute)-- Bon & Viv Spiked Seltzer Classic. And it truly is flavorless! We talk about our favorite summer brews (Devil's Backbone and Troegs) and wrap it up with just a taste of fall with a brand new cider from Bold Rock--their seasonal Harvest Haze! Mixed in we scratch our heads on the success of Naturdays and the new Natural Light spiked seltzer! And Bill spills the beans on Capit-Ale--a new collaboration with Devil's Backbone and the Washington Capitals!

The cannabis wave is sweeping the country with medical marijuana being legalized state by state, seemingly by the day. Can recreational weed be next? But here's the catch-22...although growers, processors, and distributors are making money hand over fist, banking that money is extraordinarily difficult due to onerous and vague federal regulations. That's where Solvent comes in.
John and Tim sit down with Brian Meyer and Tony Richards, two of the five cofounders of this Annapolis financial tech startup that is determined to simplify and revolutionize the banking aspect of the cannabis industry using proprietary tools and processes. We did not get high. Unfortunately.

Today, Beth Nielsen Chapman joins John on the phone to talk about her upcoming show at the Rams Head On Stage in Annapolis along with what it is like being a Nashville Hall of Fame Songwriter, working with some of the biggest names in music and why she likes the train!
We also hit on some personal stuff...the death of her husband from cancer in 1994 and her own battle with breast cancer in 2000. But as she pulls into the train station (didn't want to make her miss her stop) we get some tips on being a grandmom, and her favorite Elton John song--besides the one she wrote for him!
Catch Beth's show on Saturday, August 10, 2019 at Rams Head On Stage. Show is at 8pm, doors open at 7pm!

Discovering a good recipe for a festival is tough. How many festivals are one and done? How many lose their mojo after a year or two? Well, Kegs & Corks Craft Beer and Maryland Wine Festival seems to have found the answer as they are preparing to bring the 8th Annual Kegs and Corks Festival to the Anne Arundel County Fairgrounds on August 17, 2019.
This week, we sit down with Ashlee and Sharon to see how they do it. The answer is simple--keep it fresh. And fresh this year is The Amish Outlaws! They will be headlining and we speak with Ezekiel at the 23:30 mark.
So, if you are a beer or wine or music fan--this is the festival for you. Listen up as we talk music, vendors, and of course the beer and wine that will be coming on August 17th!

Today, we ventured to Killarney House to speak with Jeff Gunhus, who is a local author of more than a dozen books ranging from children's books (to jump start his son's interest in reading) to horror to thriller including one that is set here in Annapolis (Killer Within).
Jeff has published most of his books through Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing which is a new technology that is upending the traditional publishing business. We talk about what it takes to write a book, and how easy it now has become to get published.
Up next for Jeff--another thriller set in DC.

Last time, Nina and Sarah said they were close! Now they nailed it! The Scenic Rivers Land Trust now has more than 3000 acres in Anne Arundel County under a land trust easement! Congrats! Is a land trust in your future? Maybe your neighbors? They are having 2 workshops-- July 18 (2-3pm at the Edgewater Library) and August 13 (6-7pm at the Crofton Library)--both are free. Come out and learn what a land trust can do! They do ask that you reserve a spot just so they know how many to plan for!

Today we speak with Glenn Fueston who is the Executive Director for the Governor's Office of Crime Prevention & Control or GOCCP. Acronyms and big names aside, this is the office that tracks crime statewide and doles out millions of dollars to help fund the programs that aid victims of crime in Maryland and implement programs that help to bring it down! While the podcast is fantastic (my mom said to say that), take a look at their website, and in particular their reporting information and statistics--fascinating!

John sent Tim, unaccompanied, to The Guinness Open Gate Brewery and Barrel House in Halethorpe to have a pint or two with Ryan Wagner, Brewery Ambassador. Alone. Without any supervision. To a place with Guinness.
When you think Guinness, you think Extra Stout, right? You're not wrong, but you need to hear about what the exquisite, new experimental beers coming out of the new Guinness Brewery right near BWI Airport. This brewery has a bar with it's own two-floor museum of the history of Guinness. Ryan Wagner, takes Tim out of his comfort zone of Miller Lite to sample the newest offering from the old sod.

Unless you've been under a total media blackout over the past few weeks, you have to have noticed that women's soccer is white-hot right now. So who better to talk to right now than local soccer maven Sarah Sample?
Sarah is one of the pros behind Seleção Futebol, a soccer program for girls by women. So what do they promise to do for young women with dreams of the pitch? "We're gonna make you better." That's it in a nutshell. Today, Tim sits down with Sarah to talk about her philosophy about coaching and how their program produces strong-minded players who have the confidence to make split-second decisions both on and off the field.
The Seleção Futebol program runs August 5-9 at the Indian Creek Upper School. Click here to register.

This month, not so much beer; but more of the events where you can drink some beer! Budweiser is a lead sponsor for the Chesapeake Bayhawks and will be hosting Hawk-Hours at various locations around town on Fridays before home games--first one is THIS Friday at Federal House! They are all in on the Outlaw Jam toward the end of July. Budweiser and Babe will be prominent in the Inaugural Annapolis Pride Parade and Festival and of course everywhere for your Fourth of July celebrations!
OK, OK, so we did have some beer. In honor of the anniversary of the Apollo 11 lunar landing 50 years ago---The new Budweiser Discovery Reserve Red Lager (man that will be a tough one to order...let's go with "Bud, double R, L") in the stubby bottle! And in keeping with giving back, Budweiser is donating up to $100K to Folds of Honor. Spoiler: I am not a fan of the darker beers, but this one was on point!

Hands down--the most fun I have had recording a podcast ever! I mean really--sitting in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay IN the Thomas Point Light House...how could it be anything else?
Today, we talk with John Potvin who is a local resident that happens to be the Preservation Foreman for the US Lighthouse Society who is in charge of basically making sure the iconic landmark is in top shape!
We discuss how you can get out and INTO the lighthouse yourself (go to the Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park), the history of the lighthouse from the light keepers to the Coast Guard to today, the financial needs of the lighthouse which are many (there is a GoFund Me along with a generous matching donor), and the great group of volunteers from the Annapolis Woodworking Guild that put in more than 2000 volunteer hours every year to make sure that the lighthouse remains true to its origins.

Leadership Anne Arundel is having a big year. Not only are they celebrating twenty-five years of service this June, but they have welcomed Kris Valerio Shock as their new President and CEO.
Thousands of local elected officials, business owners, entrepreneurs, and community leaders have graduated from the highly-esteemed Leadership Anne Arundel program over the past quarter century, and Kris sits down with the Crabs to talk about where the organization has been, where it is now, and where it is going.

Tim quit Twitter. And it's killing him.
This special episode has been a long time in the making. Last year, the Key School was rocked with allegations of sexual abuse by faculty over a period that spanned decades. They hired a firm to look into it and issue a report.
Today, we speak with two alumni who experienced abuse (in different decades) to present their stories. We hear why they feel the report is only scratching the surface of the problem, what the school must do moving forward, and how they are coping.
NOTE: After release, there was one minor edit. At the 32:00 mark a characterization was made about the funeral and was followed by a comment stating that she was not there. We removed the characterization.

In 1997, James Borchelt had an idea. Gather 4 local bands. Have them play a street festival for free and give away the money. Seemed reasonable. And THAT was the start of Eastport A Rockin. Maybe 700 people attended to hear The Kelly Bell Band, The Eastport Oyster Boys, Jepetto and Non-Fiction.
Fast forward to THIS WEEKEND--- June 22nd!
Now, 23 years later, it's grown ever so slightly under the tutelage of Borchelt, and successive organizers and literally thousands of volunteers. This year...this Saturday...there will be 40 bands on 4 stages. And crowds can still dance to The Kelly Bell Band and The Eastport Oyster Boys...along with Skribe, Sweet Leda, Sean Hetrick & the Leftovers, the Naptown Brass Band and the tunes of DJ Folly! PLUS, you can enjoy the cool breezes off Back Creek at the Annapolis Maritime Museum.
Listen in as we talk about this year's Eastport A Rockin with Director Jessica Pachler and Music Director Christina Willharm who have put together one fantastic Saturday! Volunteers are ALWAYS welcome (free admission) and tickets are available online and in advance. Save $5 with advance tickets which go off sale at midnight on Friday!
Have a listen!

June is LBGTQ Month and Annapolis is gearing up for its first LGBTQ Pride Parade & Festival on Saturday, June 29th. To gear up for this momentous event, we present an encore presentation of our interview earlier this spring with organizer and Board Chair of Annapolis Pride, Jeremy Browning.
Annapolis Pride! It's a relatively new organization that has burst on the scene in a big way. Last year they had a Pride March for the LBGTQ community. And this year there will be a Pride Parade and Festival in Annapolis. Look for a Pride Night at the Bowie Baysox and many more events and gatherings.
We're proud (pardon the pun) to have the Annapolis Pride magnet on the back of our car and to support ALL of our neighbors.
Have a listen as we talk to the man behind the organization-- Jeremy Browning!

Today, we continue our monthly series (no set schedule other than monthly) about beer. We have a huge distributer of beer right here in Annapolis--Katcef Brothers Inc. and they have a ton of experts on hand to de-mystify beer for us. Now, full disclosure--I like beer! I like beer a lot! But, I am not a beer snob and a Bud Light will suit me just fine.
This month, it is all about the summer beers of which many don't really seem to be beers at all! As for the beer... on tap (pun intended) is the line up of Stella, Floyds, Innis and Gunn, New Belgium, and Troegs! Warning, we go off topic quite a bit, but as Lauren said...have a great summer but "drink wiser" and be safe! Have a listen as this episode unfolds.
A quick note on the sound-- we screwed up and forgot a critical piece to the recording process--the memory card. So this was recorded using Plan B--which we always have!

This week, John and Tim sit down with producer and director, R. Todd Stevens, creator of "Crownsville Hospital: From Lunacy to Legacy" , a feature-length documentary film highlighting the history of the Crownsville State Mental Hospital in Crownsville, MD. Drawing on many documentary works such as “The Thin Blue Line” and “Night and Fog” for inspiration, the film utilizes archival footage, animation and original music to unfold the story and evoke a mood.
Both exterior and interior present-day footage and photos have been combined with exterior/interior archival footage and photos to capture the changes to the hospital through its 96-year lifespan. In addition, interviews with historians and former hospital workers as well as patients help to round out the experience.

And on April 27th, they are hosting several guided hikes in this incredible spot. It is free, but they do ask you to sign up.

Twice a year, Dr. Dan Nataf, the Director of the Center for the Study of Local Issues at Anne Arundel Community College takes the pulse of the community.

It's been almost a year and a half since he left the Mayor's Office, but Mike Pantelides is back with The Maryland Crabs and he has a lot to say about the last election, his term as mayor, and the current city administration. Is he going to run for office again in the city or does he have designs on higher office? John and Tim tactlessly badger him about his future plans.

It happens every year...well at least for the past seven years! The Annapolis Film Festival is bringing more than 70 films to Annapolis March 21st to 24th!
We sit down to talk to the producers of "Aleppo", a short film that attempts to change the narrative of how Syrians are depicted in the media, and ultimately change minds. By telling a story about one doctor's experience in Aleppo, they hope to shed light on the critical work of all doctors and victims of the war as it continues.
The film is about Hanan, a successful young Syrian-American doctor, who returns to Syria to help victims of war. When the hospital where she works is bombed, she suffers a traumatic brain injury that leaves her face blind. Unable to recognize the faces of even those closest to her, Hanan’s world has been turned upside down and her identity lost.
Now home in New York, Hanan has difficulty coming to terms with how her life has changed following the attack. Haunted by her trauma and struggling to adjust to her condition, Hanan must confront her fear of navigating the world, putting her identity, and her future as a doctor, in doubt.
Solace screens at 2:45pm on Sunday, March 24, 2019 at St. Johns College Key Auditorium!
And when you are done listening to this--go buy your passes and mark your calendars for the Annapolis Film Festival 2019!

It happens every year...well at least for the past seven years! The Annapolis Film Festival is bringing more than 70 films to Annapolis March 21st to 24th and we sat down with the founders once again to see what was in store for their seventh go around of this fantastic event that has brought millions to the area economy!
Tchaico Omawale is the writer, producer, and director of Solace. We spoke a little bit about the film and how real the characters are, the struggles they face and how they mimic some of her own as she was growing up as the child of a UN employee living across the globe. Solace is about a 17-year old girl, Sole, who is sent to live with her grandmother after her father's death. The relationship is toxic and the film examines the struggles between the two as Sole tries to find her way and her crew. It has been banded as a coming of age movie, but deep down, this is so much more! Omawale will be present at the screening and will be hosting a Q&A afterwards!
Solace screens at 2:45pm on Sunday, March 24, 2019 at St. Johns College Key Auditorium!
