Did you know that in the early 20th century, it wasn’t just athletes competing for medals at the #Olympics? It was poets and artists as well. @DanaSchwartzzz tells the remarkable story on ‘Very Special Episodes.' share.harkaudio.com/HE5rD2pr…

The 1904 Olympics in St. Louis were not as well-organized as the modern-day Games. On ‘Very Special Episodes,’ @DanaSchwartzzz tells the wild story of the marathon, which involved runners taking naps, using cars and doping using rat poison. share.harkaudio.com/DFu4xk2g…

The biggest Nancy Drew mystery isn’t hidden in the plots of the books. It’s on the cover. “Who is the real Carolyn Keene?” For 50 years, two women laid claim. Finally, in 1980, with help from an amateur detective, the truth came out in court. Listen: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

We couldn’t let February 29th pass without a great moment on it. On @DanaSchwartzzz’s excellent ‘Very Special Episodes,’ she introduces us to Raenell Dawn, a woman who was born on this day - and made celebrating that fact her life’s work. @LeapDayLady share.harkaudio.com/qvzCCWWf…

3rd and 4. 2 minutes left. A Super Bowl hanging in the balance. Trent McDuffie made the play, but Steve Spagnuolo tells me it was Nick Bolton— and Spags’ trust in Bolton— that made the play of the game possible. X’s and O’s talk from the master. Candy for @chiefs fans.

Have you been listening? Well, maybe you should, that is, if you like magazine-style stories of people and culture that somehow feel like mini-movies
They let us record Very Special Episodes from Radio Row at the Super Bowl. This week’s story is about a middle-aged guy, down on his luck, who goes back to school — and is reborn a college football legend. Listen anywhere — link.chtbl.com/veryspecialep…

Mitch Hurwitz and the Russo brothers originally wanted David Cross to play Gob Bluth on “Arrested Development”. Thankfully, he urged them to let him play Tobias Funke. The rest is history…

I can’t say too much just yet, but we’ve got an amazing dark comedy about smoky back rooms coming up later this month: it’s called “Let’s Start A Coup,” and it is EXACTLY what you’re looking for. Stay tuned. CC: @EnglishJason @emiliabrock @MisterAlexFren1

Will be proudly sworn-in to Congress on the U.S. Constitution. Underneath the Constitution will be 3 items that mean a lot to me personally. A photo of my parents who I lost to covid, my citizenship certificate & an original Superman #1 from the @librarycongress. 🇺🇸😊
