A 12-episode series from the gang at Redleg Nation Radio

The off-season is here, so we are happy to present you with our original series, Building the Machine. Over the next 4 weeks, we're going to bring you the story of the Big Red Machine, Cincinnati’s baseball dynasty that changed the game forever. Day by day, year by year, you’ll see how the Machine was constructed, all the highs and lows, and the legacy that remains.

If you missed the show when it first aired, here's what you can expect: Each week, we’ll be bringing you two episodes, each focusing on a single year, from 1969 to 1979. If you didn’t get to experience the Big Red Machine as they were dominating baseball, you’re going to enjoy the chance to experience the story as if you were there, and learn more about the names and events that were so important in shaping the narrative around the Cincinnati Reds.

If you were fortunate enough to watch the Machine live, this will be a fun blast from the past.

Here is Episode 4 of Building the Machine: Welcome to Cincinnati, Joe Morgan
