    I love your podcasts —— content, quality, guests, humor and really great discussions. Just SO refreshing during a time where the media is mostly just out of control in so many ways. Thank you - Please don’t ever change……some of us older folks really need this open dialog…..and humor. I love the way you work together. Keep going strong!

    Great show with ML. ML was the ultimate team player and pretty decent small forward. Positive role model. A lot of Cs fans don’t realize how important he was to the early successes during the Bird era. Great show!

Stan Grossfeld on UnAnchored Boston with Bob Lobel and Mike Lynch
Q: How did you get started in photojournalism and what drew you to this career?
Stan explains that his father's passing pushed him toward photography as a way to channel passion into a profession, combining love of music and a curiosity about the world into a “front row seat to everything.”
Robert Parish "The Chief" on UnAnchored Boston with Bob Lobel and Mike Lynch
Q: All right, Chief. We all remember John Madden was afraid to fly. So they built him this Madden Cruiser. If you had to pick one person to ride shotgun with you across the country for seven days, who would it be?
Parish chooses his partner (Esther) as the person to share the ride, underscoring the importance of personal support and balance in life.
Rich Hill on UnAnchored Boston with Bob Lobel and Mike Lynch
Q: Do you see a future where you return to pitching at 48 or beyond?
I'd consider it if the right opportunity and conditions align, especially if I could stay healthy and contribute, even if it means coming back in a different capacity or for a special appearance.
Rich Hill on UnAnchored Boston with Bob Lobel and Mike Lynch
Q: What was the turning point that kept you in the majors after multiple team changes?
Taking the out contract opportunities and moving to different organizations allowed me to reinvent myself, transition into starting roles, and eventually return to the big leagues with a broader perspective and renewed motivation.
Bill Speros on UnAnchored Boston with Bob Lobel and Mike Lynch
Q: How has legalized sports betting affected illegal betting?
While legal betting has grown, illegal betting is still prevalent due to issues like credit betting.
