Reggie Lewis tragically passed away 30 years ago (1993) at the age of just 27. This is an updated re-release of episode 27 with my great mate, <a href='https://twitter.com/toddspehr35'>Todd Spehr</a>. We recorded our chat ten years ago to mark the 20th anniversary of Lewis' sudden passing. I’ve added numerous audio clips for greater context, edited our original conversation and improved its sound quality. We discussed the life and times of Reggie - from his days at Dunbar High School, to his tenure at Northeastern University and ultimately, rise from seldom-used NBA rookie to captain of the famed Boston Celtics. Todd mentioned the poem that Reggie’s widow, Donna Harris-Lewis, read to the Boston Garden faithful on Reggie Lewis Night in 1995. Audio of that poignant moment also now features. This is a fresh listening experience even for the most-diehard fan clamoring for a new episode – of which, to be sure – many more are planned for release throughout the rest of 2023. Most of the additional audio in this episode was sourced from <a href='https://youtu.be/sKROLR9dX9k'>TV broadcasts</a> aired at the time of Lewis’ passing. They were thankfully preserved by <a href='https://www.youtube.com/@timtheriault2672'>Tim Theriault</a>.Support: <a href='https://inallairness.com/coffee'>Buy Adam a coffee</a> | Amazon: <a href='https://inallairness.com/AmazonUSA'>USA</a> / <a href='https://inallairness.com/AmazonOz'>Australia</a> | <a href='https://inallairness.com/Audible'>Audible</a> | <a href='https://inallairness.com/PayPal'>PayPal</a> Listen: <a href='https://inallairness.com/Apple'>Apple Podcasts</a> | <a href='https://inallairness.com/Google'>Google Podcasts</a> | <a href='https://inallairness.com/Spotify'>Spotify</a> | <a href='https://inallairness.com/Overcast'>Overcast</a> Follow: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/inallairness.nbahistory.pod/'>Instagram</a> | <a href='https://twitter.com/inallairness'>Twitter</a> | <a href='https://youtube.com/inallairness'>YouTube</a> | <a href='https://www.facebook.com/adamryan2345/'>Facebook</a> Subscribe (free): NBA-history <a href='mailto:inallairness@gmail.com?subject=hoops%20newsletter'>newsletter</a> [as an Amazon Associate, Adam earns from qualifying purchases - you'll be supporting his podcast at no extra cost]
