Yesterday's Sports is part of the Sports History Network - The Headquarters For Sports Yesteryear.YESTERDAY'S SPORTS HOME PAGEEPISODE SUMMARYStep back in time to an era of leather helmets and legendary grit as Mark chronicles the 1940s Chicago Bears, the original "Monsters of the Midway." This decade marked a period of unparalleled dominance where George Halas built a juggernaut that defined professional football. From the historic 73-0 dismantling of the Washington Redskins in the 1940 Championship to the innovative T-formation that revolutionized the game, Mark explores how the Bears captured four NFL titles and appeared in five championship games, cementing their status as the league's premier dynasty.We dive deep into the storied careers of Hall of Famers like Sid Luckman, the quarterback who transformed the passing game, and the versatile George McAfee, whose explosive speed made him a threat every time he touched the ball. Listen as Mark recounts the "Golden Era" stars—from the bruising Bronko Nagurski to the ball-hawking Bulldog Turner—and examine how the team navigated the challenges of World War II, including the emotional backdrop of the Pearl Harbor attack and the player shortages that forced legends out of retirement.This 3-part series is a nostalgic journey through a decade where the Bears averaged nearly nine wins a season and turned Wrigley Field into a fortress of football excellence. Whether it's the fierce rivalry with the Green Bay Packers or the heartbreaking season finales against the cross-town Cardinals, we bring the 1940s back to life with vivid detail. Relive the stats, the stories, and the sheer dominance of a team that ended the decade with a staggering 86-23-3 record, proving they were truly the kings of the gridiron.YESTERDAY'S SPORTS BACKGROUNDHost Mark Morthier grew up in New Jersey just across the river from New York City during the 1970s, a great time for sports in the area.

Paul Halpern recounts how as the Big Bang theory gained acceptance, Gamow sought recognition for his 1940s predictions regarding cosmic radiation before his death in 1968. Conversely, Hoyle faced a controversial Nobel Prize exclusion for his work on stellar elements, leading him toward increasingly eccentric theories — championing "panspermia," suggesting life and diseases arrived via comets, while challenging Darwinian evolution. Halperncharacterizes both protagonists as "seat of the pants" thinkers who prioritized spontaneous intuition over slow, archival scientific development. (4)1930

Cloak and Dagger (1946) is one of the most overlooked spy films ever made — and this episode proves it deserves a second look. Dan and Tom decode this gritty WWII thriller starring Gary Cooper and directed by Fritz Lang. It's raw, tense, and surprisingly realistic. Before James Bond made espionage glamorous, this film showed what it really looked like. No gadgets. No tuxedos. Just survival. A physics professor is yanked from the Manhattan Project and sent to Europe — with no training and no safety net. His mission: find out how close Nazi Germany is to building an atomic bomb. That fear was real. The stakes were enormous. We dig deep into what makes this film stand out: the brutal, visceral staircase fight scene, the film noir cinematography by Sol Polito, and Max Steiner's understated score. We also explore the Hitchcock parallels, the Bond connections, and the censored anti-nuclear ending Fritz Lang never got to film. Episode highlights: ·

Guest Host James Lott Jr talks about the highest paid actors in Hollywood in the 1940s, both Black and White.

I found old newspapers in a recycling bin while moving offices. They were from the 1940s.One article was about Bethlehem Steel. At that moment, it was the future. It made a huge share of the steel that built North America and it helped power the war effort. The plant was massive. The company was “doing everything right.” Efficient. Disciplined. Serious. Business pages love that story.And yet it died.That is the part that still messes with my head.Because it means “doing things right” is not the same as staying alive. It means the world can change under your feet while you are busy polishing the thing you already know how to do.So here is my uncomfortable takeaway.Sometimes the smartest move is to do something that looks wrong at the time. Something weird. Something playful. Something that has no clean logic yet.Not because it will all work. Most of it will not.But because we are terrible at knowing what will matter later. Even the best people, with the best data, get the future wrong.Bethlehem Steel is a graveyard reminder of that.So if you feel stuck chasing “correct,” try one small “incorrect” thing this week. Just one. Not for status. Not for praise. Just because you have a tiny love for it.You might be building your next decade by accident.

Message us ANONYMOUSLYGuest co-host Rachael Fosket ("The Librarians," "Midway" - 2019 ) joins Paul for a little trip to "The Shop Around the Corner" (d. Lubitsch 1940). Starring: Margaret Sullivan, and Jimmy Stewart. Budapest, 3 o'clock in the morning, and were looking for a thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn't go on stage that night. So, Jeff Beck ("Twins") pops his head 'round the door, and mentions there's a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So - we go. And - it's closed. So there's Paul, Rachael, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they've got this bloody great big Bengal tiger. Rachael managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shop owner and his son... that's a different story altogether...nasty business, really. But, sure enough, we got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show. It's really just a nice holiday movie though. 12/9!****A member of the “Review Review,” family is in the fight of her life, you can help! - TAP/CLICK HEREMore with Rachael: Season 3 - Friday the 13thMore holidays:Season 2 - GremlinsSupport the show**All episodes contain explicit language**Artwork - Ben McFaddenReview Review Intro/Outro Theme - Jamie Henwood"What Are We Watching" & "Whatcha been up to?"

Lawrence Swift Noxon was born in March 1943. At five months old, he was diagnosed with what we now call Down syndrome. Three weeks later, on September 22, 1943, baby Lawrence died from electrocution under highly suspicious circumstances. His father, John Franklin Noxon Jr., was soon charged with murdering his infant son in what many considered a “mercy killing.” For this episode, I spoke with author Jim Overmyer, who wrote The Electrocution of Baby Lawrence, the definitive story of Lawrence's murder and the long, complicated legal proceedings that followed. This is the story of a baby boy who deserved to live a lot longer than he did, and a father who some at the time said wasn't punished harshly enough for his son's murder, while others believed that what John did was for the best.This is the tragic story of baby Lawrence Noxon.The Electrocution of Baby Lawrence: A Murder that Shook a New England Town by Jim Overmyer on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Electrocution-Baby-Lawrence-Murder-England/dp/1538181290/ref=sr_1_1 Jim's author website: https://www.jamesovermyer.com/Jim's Facebook author page: https://www.facebook.com/p/James-Overmyer-author-100041727673681/ Jim's Amazon author page: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B081QRYTRM/about?ccs_id=c7fa7aac-e829-4449-9d6a-e61d26b9b8e0 Photos related to today's episode can be viewed on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpod You can also follow the podcast on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@STLCpodMy Linktree is available here: https://linktr.ee/stlcpod Visit the podcast's web page at https://www.sufferthelittlechildrenpod.com. By supporting me on Patreon, you'll also access rewards, including a shout-out by name on the podcast and exclusive rewards.
