Finding The Amazing
My “Leaving Cancer” reprise road trip has checked every box. After four days with lots to come, I’m just checking in a little bit about the sports weekend….and the delights of the Black Hills, small towns, and life’s little moments in this on the road mini-pod. Enjoy!
Perseverance, Professionalism, and Panache
A revealing, emotional, and inspiring conversation with Easton President Joe Speicher. My good friend and Thirsty compatriot is a true American success story, overcoming a challenging upbringing in tiny Inman, Kansas, working many odd jobs and graduating from KU, settling into a career in the roofing business, and starting his own company in 2014. A decade later the company is one of the area's top enterprises. Riveting, engaging, and enjoyable!
Listing and Listening
Eclectic and entertaining as always, the guys focus on a couple of KC music organizations, health challenges and passings, and intersting lists. In focus Morgan Wallen, Folly Theater, Billboard charts, Billy Joel, Tom Petty, The Red Clay Strays, Bill Murray, Paul McCartney, Rick Derringer, and many others. Join in!
Anticipating, Dominating, Sublimating, and Ruminating
As I get set to head for the hills, literally, David Lesky from “Inside the Crown” chats Royals, Cags, and more. Also my weekly baseball roundup, Scheffler's continued dominance, NHL and NBA Finals looming, great KU and KSU baseball seasons end, SKC is warmish, and more. Soak up the info and fun!
Camping and Champing
The weekly banter battle is in high gear with a key Royals weekend series and their struggling offense, Chief’s OTA’s and contract futures, trivia fun, and the usual enjoyable detours. Come on along!
Winding Roads and Fairways
An engaging and inspiring conversation with Kansas City area golf course designer Chuck Ermisch, who has worn all hats in the golf industry, and whose latest design projects and business plan have a strong humanitarian side. Great stories filled with some of the biggest names and locations in the game!
Holiday Excellence and Smiles
The couple's view of life comes after a very busy and enjoyable holiday weekend, which included things to recommend, and revel in. Fun topics are our upcoming anniversary, my decade after road trip reprise, Yacht Rock doc, under the radar fine films, cool books, and other cool stuff. Join the fun!
Salvaging and Celebrating
A busy holiday weekend to assess with the Royals in Sunday Salvage mode, our weekly baseball roundup, mostly successful soccer weekend, NBA, and NHL, and with the Chiefs starting OTA's, a healthy slice of Chiefs with Stan Weber. A full plate to devour!
Offensive Searching and Roster Building
The banter boys are energized and opinionated diving into the youth of the Chiefs roster building, the Royals trying to conjure up more offense, a little NBA, trivia fun, and other enjoyable detours. Always a blast!
Restoration and Invigoration
A fascinating conversation with Jeffrey Calkins, one of the owners of the historic Aztec Theater in Shawnee, whose near century-long history and recent renovation have been a major part of the lively revitilization of the downtown area. A great personal and business story!
