Golden Age of Baseball podcast
 
I apologize if this has already been discussed, but I did a search and could not find it anywhere. I stumbled upon this podcast today and I am totally hooked. On the podcast, Eddie Robinson, the oldest living major leaguer, shares stories of his career which spans the pre-and post war eras. In fact, he spent 65 years in baseball. It is amazing to hear the stories as he tells them and gives great insight into what baseball was like years ago. Definitely worth giving it a listen. I have included a link to the Apple podcast, but I am sure it is available through other podcast services as well. Enjoy

The podcasts are great. He also has a wonderful book called "Lucky Me: My 65 Years in Baseball". If you love baseball stories, you will love this. He was a player, started in 1939 with the Orioles I think. He became a GM of big teams like Braves and Yankees. He is not obscure...I am just surprised he isn't even well known enough to be HOF. Best thing since "Glory of Their Times'".

Got this a month ago. He will be 101 years old in December. His memory is unbelievable. He still sits on his front porch and smokes a cigar every day.
