Tomorrow, Friday, we’ll be airing our very first “Podcast” here at dickpurtan.com, something that millions… okay thousands… well, okay… one or two of you have been asking for since I left the airwaves. But seriously dear readers, soon to be listeners, I’ve received a lot of requests for us to “podcast” ever since we started the website and we’re finally ready to give it a go! Hope you “tune-in” right here tomorrow!

My plan is to do our regular print format Monday through Thursday as we have been - and then turn Friday’s entry into a podcast. Hope you’ll join us tomorrow as we begin this new venture!

I was very pleased to be included in the very first group honored. My fellow “inductees” were Al Kaline, Elmore Leonard, Carmen Harlan & Dave Bing. It was a great event despite the 90-some degree heat (we were outside!). The handprints will be permanently placed along the entranceway to the Museum. Next year they will announce the second set of inductees. Below are some pictures from the event.
