Longtime Meat Loaf drummer John Miceli shares tales of the myth of "Bat Out Of Hell" and the Neverland Express band as the "Celebrating Meat Loaf" group brings a special Halloween show to Rams Head in Annapolis on Saturday afternoon with the music of Jim Steinman with a Rocky Horror twist.

Every time we visit Nashville, the downtown area and vibrancy seems to double. Now with a giant new stadium being erected and Super Bowl coming to the Music City in four years, the locals are wondering if the Tennessee Titans and their stolen colors of the Oilers will catch up to the progress on the field. As Cam Ward attempts to find success and Titans come to Baltimore a double-digit dog, we welcomed legendary Associated Press sportswriter Teresa Walker back to update us on the drip and drabs of waiting on Derrick Henry to steamroll his old franchise on Sunday.

And in the week after a Baltimore Ravens' victory over his beloved Dallas Cowboys, it was time to turn to a one-time WNST radio host when the station began 28 years ago to bring the MLB playoffs and our 28th anniversary music memory bank exploration full circle with a side order of Meat Loaf and Van Halen. And maybe some Tommy Conwell...

We don't play the Tennessee Titans as often as we used to around here but lifer Nashville sportswriter Jim Wyatt returns from the Music City for a realistic and current state of the former Houston Oilers franchise and the debate about those Luv Ya Blue threads they're sporting and selling.

We are still baffled at the direction of the Baltimore Orioles and nothing was more troubling than watching Mike Elias and Craig Albernaz make excuses without accountability (or ownership representation) at a Monday press conference at The Warehouse that their own network, social media and website didn't air live.
