    Hell froze over: Southern hockey is thriving

    In the 1990s, professional ice hockey was primed for growth. But the NHL had one major problem: geography. In order to expand its footprint, the sport had to move into unlikely warm weather locations with few existing fans. The league eventually expanded to the Sun Belt with mixed early results. But in North Carolina and other Southern states, the NHL has found success with a radical long-term strategy. They've helped build the next generation of hockey fans almost completely from scratch. Featuring:  Ibraheem Khalifa, hockey fan Cory Lavalette, freelance Carolina Hurricanes beat reporter and senior editor at North State Journal Shane Willis, Director of Youth Hockey & Community Outreach for the Carolina Hurricanes Joe Ovies, co-host of the Ovies & Giglio sports podcast Special thanks goes out to the Orange County Sportsplex and Coach Kevin Kamenski of the Carolina Thunder Hockey Club in Hillsborough, NC. Thanks also to WUNC's Josh Sullivan and Mitchell Northam. Links:  You can find a transcript of the episode here. The Broadside is made possible by contributions from listeners like you.

    The hunt for a long-lost musical masterpiece (Revisited)

    To celebrate Black History Month, we're revisiting one of our favorite episodes from last year. Perhaps more than any other artform, the 20th century was shaped by jazz. And piano player and composer Mary Lou Williams was there at nearly every turn. In recent years, historians have documented and dissected her career and its big impact on American music. But the final chapter of her life—spent teaching at Duke University—was shrouded in mystery. Until now. Special thanks to Chris Pattishall for writing and performing the score for this episode. Featuring:  Anthony Kelley, Professor of the Practice of Music at Duke University Verena Mösenbichler-Bryant, Chair of the Music Department at Duke University Tammy Kernodle, Distinguished Professor in the Department of Music at Miami University Chris Pattishall, Grammy-nominated piano player and composer Links:  Watch the Duke Wind Symphony perform Mary Lou Williams’ “History” here.

    Segregation academies and a forgotten migration

    Throughout the South, state legislatures are adopting and expanding school voucher programs designed to allow parents to use public funds to pay for private school tuition. But this modern day push for school choice is connected to a dark past that recalls America’s long and sometimes forgotten history of resisting integration in the classroom.

    That time we almost destroyed the world

    On a chilly evening in 1961, a B-52 crashed in rural eastern North Carolina near the town of Goldsboro. Any plane crash is bad, but this one was particularly dangerous because onboard that bomber were two nuclear weapons. The event was perhaps the closest the United States has ever come to accidentally detonating a nuclear bomb—and kicking off a nuclear war. Featuring: Jay Price, Military and Veterans Affairs reporter at WUNC and The American Homefront Project Stephen Schwartz, independent nuclear weapons expert and author of “Atomic Audit: The Costs and Consequences of U.S. Nuclear Weapons Since 1940” Links: Read Jay's article from 2018 marking the 50th anniversary of the Goldsboro nuclear accident.  View photos of the Mars Bluff Crater left behind by the nuclear accident in Florence, South Carolina.
