  • 13. From the Mountains to the Prairies: Baseball’s New Tenor, Part 2
    Never Forget Radio’s Post-9/11 Sports Quadrilogy (9/13/01-4/1/14) concludes with Irish Tenor Ronan Tynan’s rise and fall and rise. A year after the Boston Marathon Bombing, we revisit recycled baseball recovery narratives, regionalist sloganeering, and “God Bless America” (again). Music by fan recordings from stadiums, tributes, and parades, plus Old Table, Cave Cricket, and John Hollahan.
