Discussing Memphis In May and Smokeslam With Doug Scheiding and Ray Sheehan and Author of The Fenway Effect, David Krell

Doug Scheiding and Ray Sheehan are well known to Baseball and BBQ listeners and return to the show, not as guest co-hosts, but as guests.  Doug was at Memphis In May where he conducted demonstrations for Home Depot, cooking on a Traeger grill and Ray was at Smokeslam presenting cooking demonstrations as well.  Doug has a new lineup of rubs and they can be ordered by going to  https://roguecookers.com/  and Ray has his newly branded rubs and sauces and they can be ordered at  https://www.raysheehan.com/     

David Krell is an author and baseball historian.  His latest work is, The Fenway Effect:  A Cultural History of the Boston Red Sox.  As stated on various websites where the book is sold, "To be a part of Red Sox Nation is to be a hopeful romantic who neither betrays loyalty nor surrenders hope in the direst of circumstances. From Bangor to Back Bay, New Englanders endure in baseball matters. And life. The team’s history has intersected with the history of Boston and well beyond it, through the Curse of the Bambino, the military service of Ted Williams during World War II, and the Boston Marathon bombing. The Fenway Effect chronicles these stories and others that have built the incredible saga of the Boston Red Sox.  How did Cheers depict the passion of Boston’s sports fans? Why is Narragansett beer so important to New England?  What did the Boston press really think about Red Sox owner Harry Frazee selling Babe Ruth to the Yankees?  Even Yankees fans will tip their caps to the rich impact of the Red Sox on music, movies, branding, broadcasting, and more. Plus, there’s a chapter focusing on the oral history of Red Sox fans, some of whom share anecdotes that are funny, insightful, and heartwarming."

We conclude the show with the song, Baseball Always Brings You Home from the musician, Dave Dresser and the poet, Shel Krakofsky.
