Episode 32 Published 2 years, 4 months ago
Description

In this episode, we're learning all about candlepin bowling, the region's scrappy counterpoint to "ten-pin" or "big ball." Tom Giordano has been working at Wakefield Bowladrome for almost 50 years and he has plenty of insight into what makes this local past time endure in the hearts and minds of New Englanders. We chat about the demise of the pin boys, candlepin on local television, and the recent filming of The Holdovers at Wakefield.

Also, here is that promised Malice at the Palace footage.
