Game. Set. Sibling rivalry. This week the Moonlight Graham Show takes the pod on the road to the All Iowa Lawn Tennis Club in Charles City, Iowa. This little-known gem has earned the nickname “The Court of Dreams.” The AILTC might be the only true grass tennis court in the state. It is styled after, and named after, the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, which hosts the iconic Wimbledon Championships tennis tournament. Neil and Tim record while on the road to Charles City and then on the ride home from their match to reflect on their experience.
As a midwest sports podcast with a diehard baseball fan as its host, of course, the Twins have come up on this podcast more than a few times. Tim and the brothers Flattery have loved the Twins for their whole lives. Not only that, but their dad, Moonlighter Dave Flattery is a twin. We’ve even had some twin brothers on the pod over the years. But this week puts a whole new spin on the twin connection in this podcast. Tim and Mrs. Moonlight herself, Tori Flattery, are anxiously awaiting the arrival of their twins.
This week the Moonlight Graham Show goes all the way from A to Z. Matt Adams and Andrew Zellmer that is. These former athletes and sports fans sit down with Tim on a Friday afternoon to talk a little about sports and a lot about Iowa. Matt and Andrew are two of the top dogs for Peoples Company out of Clive. This podcast is an opportunity for buddies to catch up and drain the batteries on the microphones.
How many episodes does it take to land (arguably) the most talented Flattery brother on the podcast? 221 was the magic number to bring in the big lefty, Joe Flattery. Brother Joe stands out from his brothers for a few reasons. He is the tallest, calmest, quietest, and the only lefty of the group. This week, all of the Flattery boys sit down in the family home to share stories about Joe and his career in sports.
At the core of Field of Dreams is a story about a father and son. So what better way to wrap up this season than to focus on Moonlight Tim’s soon to be new job; Dad. Brother Andy and Tom join Tim for a conversation about what it means to be a good dad.
This year, Tim and Neil were not able to attend the big game in Dyersville, so they had to bring in a reliever. Who better to serve as the Moonlight Graham Show’s first unofficial correspondent than one of Iowa’s favorite role players, Moonlighter Nick Collison?
