As spring turns to summer, we turn once again to our longtime WNST baseball insider and pal Allen McCallum to reset the Baltimore Orioles expectation and realities as the sub .500 start has required a lot of questions about a lot of departments in Birdland. The post Allen McCallum and Nestor discuss Orioles concerns as June arrives with hope and realities of MLB first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

“Everything I do is an offering to God - that's the truth.” - Alice ColtranePart of the Dolls Pod mission statement is to spotlight a remarkable woman each episode. That description certainly applies to this week's subject. First she was Alice McLeod, a single Black woman working on the jazz circuit in New York, Paris, and her home city of Detroit. Then she was Alice Coltrane, John's muse and partner in free jazz exploration. After John passed at the height of the Summer of Love, Alice was called first to India, then California on a spiritual journey; establishing her own ashram as Swamini Turiyasangitananda. Pursuing just one of these life paths would be remarkable. In just 69 years, Alice somehow pursued all three; transcending all limitations placed on her, internal and external.

Lorsque Kind Of Blue sort en 1959, Miles Davis représente la quintessence du jazz, du cool et du style. Mais comment Miles en est-il arrivé à créer ce chef-d'oeuvre absolu ? Et comment va-t-il faire pour rester au sommet malgré les vents contraires, l'agression par un policier devant le Birdland, son groupe qui se délite et sa vie privée qui rime bien trop souvent avec érance et violence ?  Anatomie d'un succès dans ce quatrième épisode du Roman Noir de Miles Davis, par David Koperhant. Hébergé par Ausha.

There's been plenty of excitement in Birdland with a pair of walkoff homers by Colton Cowser leading the Memorial Day way in extra innings. But as Luke Jones and Nestor moo about a few wins, the Baltimore Orioles still sit far below .500 and have lots of ground to make up with the Tampa Bay Rays and Toronto Blue Jays parked at Camden Yards this week. The post Luke Jones and Nestor moo to another walkoff Orioles win and wonder about Elias future with Birds first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

The losing is unacceptable to the fan base and should be unacceptable to Baltimore Orioles “new” ownership. Luke Jones and Nestor once again discuss a last-place Birdland season on the brink in May as the Orioles return home in the rain after getting swept (again) on the road at the top of the AL East. The alarms should be a lot louder than they are for this wayward, doormat franchise. The post Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Orioles and Mike Elias era circling drain in AL East first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

This is the video of last week's podcast — and another one in the Broadway Drumming 101 Classic Episode Series.This episode takes us back to January 2022 with one of the most respected drummers in both Broadway and jazz, Jared Schonig.Since we recorded this conversation, Jared has moved into the drum chair for Just in Time at Circle in the Square Theatre, but this episode still holds up because Jared drops a lot of real information about what it actually takes to survive in this business.We talked about:* How he went from jazz gigs and working at Apple to Broadway* Subbing on shows like Grease, American Idiot, and Next to Normal* Building Moulin Rouge from the ground up* Getting orchestration credit as a drummer* Broadway pit life, injuries, setups, pressure, and preparation* Why relationships and reputation matter more than people thinkJared has played with artists including Nicholas Payton, Chris Potter, John Patitucci, Cynthia Erivo, Kristin Chenoweth, and many others. He's originated seven Broadway drum books and built one of the most versatile careers out there.One thing I always appreciated about Jared is that he's honest about the work. The preparation. The pressure. The physical demands.

He came to Baltimore 40 years ago and became the venerable columnist at The Sun and then an insider with the Baltimore Ravens but his present passion was rooted in a late 21st century book on the history of Orioles baseball.

Ed, Rob, and Jeremy welcomed MASN's Kevin Brown to Friday's BBMS for a discussion on the O's strong start to Spring Training. Are we watching the start of something great for Birdland in 2026?

Rob, Jeremy, and Joe took some time to share their thoughts on the O's new high-definition scoreboard at Camden Yards. Not all members of Birdland are happy with the changes to the Yard. Are they overreacting?

It's early and the Orioles already have big injuries to Jackson Holliday and Jordan Westburg that will affect the Opening Day roster. Allen McCallum returns for a spring training thaw and Birdland prospectus with perspective for the long MLB season ahead and the pitching it will take to contend in the American League East. The post Allen McCallum returns for a spring training thaw and Orioles prospectus with perspective for long MLB season ahead first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

There are certainly reasons to be optimistic that the Baltimore Orioles won't repeat a last-place performance in the American League East but losing two blue-chip, emerging players before March doesn't lift hope.

Orioles pitchers and catchers will begin reporting to Sarasota as soon as next week. There's a lot going on in Birdland heading into such a pivotal season. Matt Weyrich joined Bob and Vinny to preview all of it.

‘Euphonic Gumbo' is not exactly a “Nawlin's” menu item but instead a tasty musical delight that's the title of of a new album on Club 44 Records from vocalist and Broadway star Julie Benko, featuring a dazzling seven-piece band directed by her pianist-arranger husband, Jason Yeager.   This recording is the result of the collaborating couple's numerous trips to New Orleans where they developed a love for the Crescent City and its rich musical and cultural histories. The album's title comes from Benko's original play ‘Down the Line' that is set in Storyville, New Orlean's former red-light district, and features the legendary pianist Tony Jackson, a mentor to Jelly Roll Morton, as the central character. Eventually, Benko and Yeager were invited by Birdland mainstay Jim Caruso to bring their musical ensemble to the club where their Big Easy-inspired celebrations have become a beloved winter tradition.   All of this led to the development of the recording ‘Euphonic Gumbo', and the story unfolds in my conversation with Julie Benko and Jason Yeager.

Voor veel jazzliefhebbers is jazz bijna synoniem met instrumentale muziek. Onterecht, naam mijn mening. Deze TORcast een aantal jazzklassiekers waarbij de tekst echt een centrale rol speelt — songs waarin het verhaal, de emotie of de poëzie minstens zo belangrijk is als de muzikale uitvoering. Billie Holiday – “Strange Fruit” (1939) Een van de meest aangrijpende jazznummers ooit. De tekst — gebaseerd op een gedicht van Abel Meeropol — beschrijft lynchpartijen in het Amerikaanse zuiden. De woorden maken het nummer; zonder de tekst zou de impact ondenkbaar zijn. Nina Simone – “Mississippi Goddam” (1964) Een scherpe, bijna cabareteske aanklacht tegen racisme en geweld. Simone gebruikt haar stem als politiek instrument, en de tekst draagt de volledige kracht van het nummer. Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong – “Summertime” (1935; jazzinterpretaties jaren '50) Oorspronkelijk uit Porgy and Bess. De tekst is simpel maar poëtisch; de dromerige, bijna wiegende woorden vormen de kern van elke jazzversie. Nat King Cole – “Nature Boy” (1948) Een mystiek, filosofisch verhaaltje in liedvorm. De tekst is poëtisch en tijdloos en draagt vrijwel volledig de melancholieke sfeer. Het nummer werd geschreven door eden ahbez, een excentrieke Amerikaanse songwriter die leefde volgens naturistische en spirituele principes. Hij schreef zijn naam bewust volledig in kleine letters en leefde jarenlang een ascetisch leven in Californië. Volgens biografische informatie ontstond “Nature Boy” terwijl ahbez bijna kluizenaarsachtig leefde in een grot nabij Palm Springs. [en.wikipedia.org] Sarah Vaughan – “Lullaby of Birdland” (1954) Een nummer waarin de tekst perfect de romantiek van jazz en nachtclubs vangt. Veel vocalisten laten hun improvisaties versmelten met de lyrische inhoud. Billie Holiday – “God Bless the Child” (1941) Holiday schreef het zelf. Het gaat over onafhankelijkheid, trots en de harde realiteit van financiële ongelijkheid. De woorden zijn essentieel voor de emotie. Eric Clapton – “Nobody Knows You When You’re Down And Out” (geschreven door Jimmy Cox, 1923) Het lied vertelt over iemand die ooit leefde als een miljonair, vrijgevig was naar vrienden en leefde in luxe. Maar zodra het geld op is, blijft er niets over — geen vrienden, geen middelen, geen status. De beroemde regel: “Nobody knows you when you’re down and out.” verwoordt op pijnlijke wijze de eenzaamheid die kan ontstaan door financiële tegenslag en het opportunisme van relaties die afhankelijk zijn van geld. Carmen McRae – “'Round Midnight” (met tekst van Bernie Hanighen) Oorspronkelijk een instrumentaal stuk van Monk, maar met de tekst krijgt het een totaal andere, intieme dimensie: een verhaal van nachtelijke melancholie. Frank Sinatra – “Angel Eyes” (1958) Een klassieker uit de bebop- en croonertraditie. De tekst vol liefdesverdriet staat centraal; Sinatra's interpretatie is bijna theater. Chet Baker – “My Funny Valentine” (1952) Hoewel vaak zacht en fragiel gezongen, draagt de tekst de hele emotionele lading. Een van de beroemdste jazzstandards waarbij de woorden de complexe liefde weergeven. Abbey Lincoln – “Throw It Away” (1980) Lincoln staat bekend om poëtische, spirituele teksten. In dit nummer zijn de woorden – over loslaten en innerlijke vrijheid – de kern van het stuk. Ella Fitzgerald, The Paul Smith Quartet – Mack The Knife (1960) Tijdens dit concert vergat Ella Fitzgerald de originele tekst van “Mack the Knife” — en in plaats van te stoppen, improviseerde ze ter plekke geheel nieuwe, geestige en ritmisch briljante teksten. Dit moment werd iconisch, omdat het haar ongeëvenaarde spontaniteit, muzikaliteit en humor liet zien. Volgens bronnen is dit optreden een van haar meest geprezen liveperformances ooit. Ze improviseert onder meer regels als dat ze “de tekst kwijt is”, en maakt zelfs grappen over hoe goed ze zichzelf vindt. Het publiek reageert uitzinnig; de performance werd meteen legendarisch.

It's not our money and it made the baseball team better so there will be no complaining about Mike Elias taking the money of David Rubenstein and Michael Arougheti and investing in a legitimate attempt to win.

The guys fire up the livestream to at long last discuss some Orioles baseball following the dawn of a new era at Camden Yards. The 2025 season was one that was unforgettable for all the wrong reasons, from a miserable start in the opening few months, the in-season firing of Brandon Hyde as a result of it, and the painful (and ultimately unsuccessful) attempt at clawing their way back into playoff contention. Since then, the O's saw a division rival once again represent the AL in the World Series in a seven game set that was won by a Dodgers team who look miles ahead of where Baltimore needs to be in just about every facet of the game. They've now hired a new manager in Craig Albernaz who looks and sounds every bit the part of the guy who can get this group of talent back to where they need to be; but as we've learned in Birdland this calendar year, talk is cheap. In Albernaz' opening press conference, he, Mike Elias, and David Rubenstein said all the right things regarding what it will take to turn things around. Can they do it? Only time will tell. As a wise man once said at the end of another extremely difficult Orioles season, "you just... don't... know." Thanks as always for tuning in, and we'll be back at you very soon!
