Our Famous Friday Show features two special guests, beginning with former Phillies catcher Erik Kratz. We chat about his playing days, the challenges (and benefits) of being part of over a dozen organizations, and the craft of being a catcher. Kratz, who currently is part of the Phillies' broadcast team, also shares about how his faith in the Lord has been important both professionally and personally.

Actor Amin (pronounced "AY-men") Joseph also joins the show to talk about the new movie "The Royal" in which he stars. The film is based on the true story of Willie Mays Aikens, the former Kansas City Royals slugger who hit two home runs in two different games in the 1980 World Series (which the Philadelphia Phillies won 4 games to 2, of course :)). Unfortunately, Aikens' life tumbled into drug addiction and being sentenced to the longest prison sentence ever given to a professional athlete in a drug case. "The Royal" details the long journey of Aikens as, against all odds, he seeks to re-enter civilian life and redemption--with God's help--with his estranged family, friends, the game of baseball and with himself.

We cap off our show with yet another rousing rendition of "Now THAT'S Punny!"
