Continuing with Emmy-winning documentary filmmaker Andy Billman. Andy gets into the duality of Dick Allen. He was a great ballplayer but also was a very controversial figure. He was cast as a moody, combative, arrogant individual... but was he? And why did it take so long for Dick Allen to make it into the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Former Chicago Bears safety Cam Worrell returns to the program for his annual preview of the upcoming NFL season. But before Cam and CG get to that, this past summer it was shocking to learn he no longer would be the Fresno State Football sideline reporter. Cam, the former Bulldog who played for Pat Hill, roamed the sidelines for 13 years with mic in hand and the brightest sneaks this side of the sun. There's been a lot of speculation regarding what did or didn't happen. So CG asks the question ---- and Cam lays out the answer very clearly.  The Christopher Gabriel Program ----------------------------------------------------------- Please Like, Comment and Follow 'The Christopher Gabriel Program' on all platforms:  The Christopher Gabriel Program is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts. --- The Christopher Gabriel Program | Website | Facebook | X | Instagram | --- Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Augustine Dimayacyac. Teresita Parrocha. Two of the nicest women you would ever hope to run across in your life. They're sisters. They're twins. And they're rather remarkable nurses at Clovis Community Medical Center. Augustine is pre-op, Teresita is post-op.

Penelope Jane Harriman is a rising young bluegrass artist with exceptional and abundant talent as a singer, a songwriter and a musician. In the first of three segments, Penelope talks about her passion for music, how she progressed from violin and piano to the mandolin (and what prompted her learning to play the mandolin) and perhaps most importantly the bond and love she has with, and for, her equally talented family. She has musical heroes but it all began, and continues, at home.
