Legendary Boston sports photographer Steve Babineau ("Behind the Lens: The World Hockey Association 50 Years Later") joins the pod this week to discuss his new, lovingly-curated collection of largely never-before-seen images of the colorful 1970s challenger hockey league that helped kick-start a life-long love for photography - and a 50+ year career behind the lens shooting some of the game's biggest stars.   A teenaged "Babs" was there at the old Boston Gardens on October 12, 1972, when the inaugural puck was dropped in the history of the New England Whalers (vs. the Philadelphia Blazers, on the second-ever day of WHA action) - unwittingly capturing some of the very first images of the revolutionary circuit that would ultimately give minor-league journeymen, NHL elder statesmen and even fledgling junior hockey phenoms (like a 17-year-old wunderkind named Wayne Gretzky) a chance to not only play, but creatively thrive.   And that guy Gretzky?  Well, we'll let Babs tell you that story!   + + + RUN (DON'T WALK) TO GET Steve's book (co-authored with Brian Codagnone) "Behind the Lens: The World Hockey Association 50 Years Later" from ECW Press NOW!

In this first instalment, we cover Bob’s early life in New Jersey - his parents’ influence on his love of sports, the first column he released as an 11-year old, his transition to grade school and on to Boston College where he’d first meet recently-retired NBA star, Bob Cousy - and a few years hence - the legendary Red Auerbach. Bob chats about calling the Eagles’ basketball games on student-run radio, graduating from BC and transitioning to The Boston Globe. You’ll hear the funny story behind Bob’s assignment to cover the Celtics and his unique experiences working the 1970 NBA Finals, amidst a who’s who of superstars at Madison Square Garden in New York. All that and plenty more – to top it all off, Bob’s recall is stunning.   Sign-up for Adam's FREE monthly newsletter - receive exclusive details on upcoming podcast episodes and future guests to appear on the show.

To celebrate the NYC Marathon this week, today's interview is with the legendary Bill Rodgers, 4X winner of the NYC Marathon, 4X winner of the Boston Marathon, former American record holder, and so much more. It's hard to imagine what the sport of running would be like without Bill Rodgers. Bill started running as a kid, the way most of us do-- naturally, and just for fun. He ran cross country in high school and was "recruited" to Wesleyan University by none other than Amby Burfoot.  While at Wesleyan, Bill's roommate was Jeff Galloway who, as Bill notes was not the Jeff Galloway, at the time.  He was just Jeff Galloway. He also roomed with Burfoot the year that Burfoot won the Boston Marathon. To me this is like the Beatles, Stones and Dylan all living together in college, not realizing what they were creating. Even Bill did not realize it at the time. He didn't foresee that he would someday run in the Boston Marathon, let alone win it 4 times... and win the NYC marathon 4 times... and win an American record... and run in the Olympics.... and continue racing into his seventies... and help lead the running boom that has become what it is today with 40,000 people lining up on Staten Island for the NYC Marathon. In fact, after college, Bill quit running and took up smoking. You'll hear why in our interview. And you'll also hear how Bill found his way back to the sport: with a little help from his friends. And to me, that was my biggest takeaway from this interview. Going into this interview, I was hoping that Bill would share with us his wisdom on winning. Like, what did he learn in all of those victories? What did he find within himself that propelled him to the top?  Was it nutrition? A special training regimen? A special kind of grit? A mantra that he said to himself in the later miles of a race?  What was the secret? Well, without giving too much away, the secret is to run with your friends. It took me a while to pick up on this in the interview. But each time I prodded Bill for some special wisdom, he always answered with some variation on who he was running with. Once he said it for the nth time, I finally realized it.  And it resonated with me so strongly because that's what draws me to the sport too. The camaradarie of an early morning run with your friends.  When it's freezing cold and 6AM, but you gotta get out there because you know they'll be there too. When you're on the Verrazano Bridg with 40,000 other runners who you've never met before, from all over the world. And you're all about to write a special story together. Being part of this amazing Charity Miles community and seeing the photos that you share everyday in our Facebook group and on Instagram. Hearing your stories. That's what it's about for me.  That's what fires me up! So, if you're going to be on the Verrazano with me this weekend, take a look around.  See the story on each person's face. Feel the energy, the spirit.  You're part of something special. If you're not running NYC this weekend, run or walk a few miles with us in spirit.  Even better if you bring a friend.  You too are part of this special community. So thank you for being part of our community.  I know I'll be feeling your energy on Sunday. #EveryMileMatters -Gene P.S. Here's a link to the Bill Rodgers Running Center.  And here's a link to buy Bill's book, Marathon Man, which I highly recommend

In this episode, we politick with Singapore Kane. A rapid rising rap star hailing from Boston, Massachusetts. Singa is of Jamaican decent his father is a Legendary Boston reggae artist,so Singapore was introduced to Music at a early age . Kane started his journey in the fourth grade,when he discovered his ability to write poetry and progressed from the there.Kane holds his own when it comes to the Rap game.Whether spitting on topics regarding the streets or world politics, his rhymes leave you with plenty to envision and contemplate . Singa explains it best, "You don't hear my lyrics, you see em." A list of his musical influences consist of artist like,NAS,KRS-1, N.W.A. and BIG DADDY KANE ,RHAKIM and few others."A protégé of Boston legend and Gang Starr affiliate Big Shug, Mattapans. Singapore Kane might have the smoothest flow in hip-hop. No bullshit. With production from beat kings including DJ Premier and a cross-section of the Boston scene (Singapore plays both sides of the pavement street and underground), his debut full-length should prove that.All too often rap monikers seem entirely arbitrary to the actual content of the music that follows. Ruthlessly bucking this trend of empty promises is Singapore Kane, whose aggressively crisp delivery swats the versatile array of beats featured on his fifth solo project, Wrath of Kane.
