Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Nationals Park
Every year, the best players and fan favorites from Major League Baseball play an exhibition game to mark the midway point for the season. This year, the game is in Washington, D.C. for the fifth time in the game’s history. We take a look at how baseball has changed in the years since 1969 when the All-Star Game was last in Washington. Plus, we pose the existential question: Is D.C. still a baseball town?
