Joining the Time Machine this inning are Mike Allen (from the Knights), Ira Carlson (from the Dukes), and Kevin Sevcik (from both) to reminisce about their own experience and shed some light on both teams' pasts.

    The History of Chip DeMann w/ Trip DeMann & John Radtke (Ep. 30)

    This month’s episode is dedicated to the work, impact, and legacy of late notable Northfielder Chip DeMann, a local history lover who was instrumental in establishing the bank raid reenactment tradition, saving the Northfield depot, and preserving Northfield's overall past. Joining Kosmo to discuss more about Chip's multi-faceted life is his eldest son Trip DeMann and close friend John Radtke, both of whom have participated in their fair amount of raids. (The Northfield History Center's exhibit about Chip DeMann is planned to open in mid-May.)

    The History of Northfield Milling & Distilling w/ Mark Schiller (Ep. 28)

    It’s a rhyming episode this month as Kosmo grabs a beer (a root beer, rather) and sits down with Mark Schiller, co-owner of Loon Liquor and local history buff. The two discuss Northfield’s origin in relation to the prosperous milling business that populated Minnesota in the 19th century; the evolution of local distilling from the temperance movement through Prohibition and today; and how Loon Liquor is continuing these historic traditions and intending to expand the business impact on Northfield as a result.

    President's Day Special w/ Teddy Roosevelt/Adam Lindquist (Ep. 27)

    On this President's Day episode, Kosmo's interview goal of a presidential podcast is finally fulfilled when he's joined by none other than President Theodore Roosevelt (portrayed by Adam Lindquist), who shares the riveting details of his multi-faceted biography, from cowboy expeditions to political escapades to assassination attempts and even more. Plus, Kosmo gets TR to debunk (and affirm) some myths about POTUS' adventures, all while both discover the importance and relevance of past presidents to modern American life.
