The Last Dance - Extras 3 (Guest: Curt Bloom - Birmingham Barons Radio) - AIR105

The Last Dance - Extras 3 (Guest: Curt Bloom - Birmingham Barons Radio) - AIR105

My guest is long-time Birmingham Barons Radio Broadcaster, Curt Bloom. This is a special episode as it’s the first devoted purely to Michael Jordan’s baseball career. This conversation was recorded after episode eight of the The Last Dance had aired.

Curt talks about first hearing the news that MJ could be headed to Alabama, how Jordan adjusted to life as a Minor League player, his interactions – and later, a special one-on-one interview - with Michael and more.

Plus, Curt gave me the thumbs-up to include audio snippets of some iconic calls he made of various MJ milestones as a Barons player; all unheard for over 25 years.
