As part of the KDKA Turkey Fund partnership, hosts, staff and regular guests from KDKA’s Pittsburgh Today recently visited the Food Bank as part of a volunteer day of service. Two of those guests included John Chamberlin and Rachel Rennebeck from the Pittsburgh-based YaJagoff podcast.

As part of their volunteer day, Chamberlin, Rennebeck, and the entire KDKA team sorted and bagged 4,500 pounds of locally sourced apples (Apple Castle) at the food bank’s repack center. Located in the main warehouse facility in Duquesne, repack volunteers are charged with sorting and repackaging both perishable and non-perishable products.

published in category: Sports Talk Radio on Wednesday, November 20th, 2019 – 12:31 am

Boston Globe reporter and NESN contributor, Alex Speier joins us for the podcast Wednesday. He’s covered the Red Sox since 2002. So he was around for most of Ben Cherington’s time at Fenway Park. Speier wrote a book called “Homegrown” about the 2018 Red Sox World Series team that has Cherington’s fingerprints all over it, even though he left the team back in 2015 amidst a front office overhaul. Anything you want to know about Cherington’s outlook on baseball and his track record, Speier will tell you in this podcast.

published in category: Sports Talk Radio on Sunday, November 17th, 2019 – 11:39 pm

Mark Madden and I discuss the Colin Kaepernick sideshow in this week’s “Madden Monday” podcast. We agree on a lot of fronts there. But Mark and I are on opposite ends when it comes to the “Rudolph should be suspended” debate. Mark and I also kick around the problems facing the Steelers independent of Garrett’s helmet swing. Then we talk about the rise of Dominik Kahun during a split weekend for the Penguins. And we ponder the Pirates’ hire of Ben Cherington as their new general manager. Most importantly, we analyze the final season of “Man in the High Castle.”
