I have hated the primary digital museums (see the emigration museum in dublin, which feels like it could be anywhere), but small things to participate (the typewriters at the american writers museum) do a bunch.

1 hour ago1 hr Author Oh - so back on topic a bit.Maybe I missed it, but I looked it up and didn't see much.Ed Farmer deserved a bigger dedication. He passed during the covid years. I can't hear St. Rita without thinking of him. Gave the best call of my sox life with the paul konerko slam. He deserves a bigger day to celebrate him.

Make it interactive, how stuff for people to do and learn.I hear you can talk to Teddy there, how was your conversation?

Benetti's humor i liked but it was more 'I understand you are being humorous', while Farmer and DJ are genuinely weird dudes and it would kill me.
1 hour ago1 hr Farmer was the best bad announcer of all time. He had a great voice for radio and would go off on tangents instead of calling the game but he was easy on the ears in a way a lot of rambling announcers are not.

That just ended up being a funny situation. DJ and Farmer were way better than Stone and Schriffen for sure.
