Havre de Grace Maritime Museum in Maryland discusses its Underground Railroad exhibit.
BINGO! It has so many meanings. But I am pretty sure the genesis of them all is the gem of chance, "BINGO!" Baltimore used to have many Bingo Halls, but only a few remain. And the OG would be "BINGO World" in Brooklyn Park. 40,000 square feet of real Bingo played on cards, electronic Bingo, and also a Sports Book. Long before casino gaming in Maryland, it was BINGO! In some corners of the gambling world, it is still rocking!
Marty Bass was at Padonia Swim Club to show you the “Doc’s Tactical Rescue Stretcher.” Invented by an EMT, it replaces the cumbersome body boards we are all familiar with as part of swimming pool safety equipment. By floating “The Doc” under someone in the pool in distress, it is very easy for lifeguards to lift them out of the water and onto a stretcher. The device then pulls apart under the patient and off said stretcher for quick and easy EMT transport to get care. This is a game changer, and you are seeing it first.

When WJZ at 9 celebrated its third anniversary, K2 and Marty Bass revisited our top five coolest places we have taken you to, with the exception of one.

At that time MITAGS was rebuilding its multi-million-dollar simulator control room. Today it reopened and we were invited to not only come back but to let you see this upgrade to the best maritime simulator on Earth.
The final day of Ice Cream Truck Week finished up big. Marty Bass paid a visit to Taharka Brothers in Baltimore. In just a couple of years, Taharka Brothers will have been on the scene for 20 years. They have grown from a farmer’s market push cart to retailers coast to coast. Hard work pays off. And we had an interesting discussion about ice cream, sno-balls, and the frozen treat culture in Charm City.

Marty Bass visited the I Scream Truck in Sykesville, Maryland, for Ice Cream Truck Week. The business was started by two couples as a side gig. The location, which Marty calls the Ice Cream Park, has not only a truck but tables, corn hole, games and more. A family setting, if you will. I Scream is another truck that goes out into the community for booked appearances and food truck events!
Day three of Ice Cream Truck Week featured Quinn's Ice. The unique part of this story is that Quinn's is lactose-free. That is a big deal these days. Judging from the menu items they made for us, you would never miss the whole milk part of the frozen treat! Owned by two brothers, Quinn's Ice can be found at food truck events and can be booked for events. You can find them on Instagram for details.
The second day of Ice Cream Truck Week had Marty Bass at the Snack Shack Truck in Maryland. Started by a couple seven years ago, the "SST" makes appearances, through bookings, at events around the area. Featuring hand-dipped ice cream, or soft serve, the Snack Shack truck sells the classics of our youth. Things like Creamsicles, Ice Cream Sandwiches, Drumsticks, and more! What a great niche!

Now with three trucks and brick-and-mortar locations, it's safe to say the idea turned out well.
