The HOVG Podcast: Bob Kendrick

This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen are joined by president of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, Bob Kendrick.

Bob tells the boys about his special relationship with the late, great Buck O’Neil, the most interesting donation made to the museum (hint…it involves Rush frontman Geddy Lee!) and introduces Lou to “The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings”.
