Bob Edwards Weekend: Hour 2 (Alfred Molina, Kevin Bender, Hansen's Sno-Bliz)
Bob Edwards Weekend, August 30-31, 2014
HOUR TWO:
The new film Love Is Strange stars Alfred Molina and John Lithgow as a long-time gay couple. After spending 39 years together, George and Ben finally get married but they do not get the storybook ending they hoped for. Molina plays George, a Catholic school teacher who is fired after the marriage, sending the newlyweds on a difficult journey. Molina joins Bob to discuss his career and the new movie. Love Is Strange is now in theaters.
Many of us still remember baseball’s good old days: the ballparks, the legendary players, and the unforgettable play-by-play announcers who brought it right into our homes. Bob talks to Kevin Bender about many of those broadcasting Hall of Famers in his documentary Ball Talk: Baseball’s Voices of Summer. It’s available on DVD.
Bob samples a New Orleans delicacy: a snoball from Hansen’s SnoBliz. Ashley Hansen Springgate runs the business started by her grandparents in 1939. In fact she still shaves the blocks of ice on the very same machine her grandfather invented and built decades ago.

Can’t believe he’s not on NPR anymore!
…I still can’t believe it. I grew up with Bob's voice --- so happy his show is podcasting again.
Missing Bob ...
Hm. No new podcasts since 3 September? Has he stopped publishing here...?
