The Maryland Crabs is a podcast based in Annapolis Maryland which was launched in September 2016 after, quite literally years of hemming and hawing.  After a few false starts, many aborted concepts, we just took the plunge, whipped out the credit cards and lit Amazon on fire with equipment orders. And here we are!

This podcast is not about interviews. It’s about topics and conversations of interest to Marylanders!

We are not going to shy away from controversy or discomfort. Valuable conversations can emerge from them. We will not be adversarial for the sake of being adversarial, but you can expect some heated exchanges between Tim and John and Guests–or any combination of those.

About Guests–we're going to have plenty of them! Some will be local or regional in nature--others more broad.

And, we may even take this show on the road. Some night, you might find us propped on a bar stool at the Ebb Tide..or worse!

This week, we talk all about the Anne Arundel County Library. WAIT....STOP! We know what you're thinking, what with your finger hovering over the delete icon and all. But this is NOT your father's library we're talking about here, with the big, clunky card catalog and the shushy librarian with her hair in a tight bun. No, it is the next generation of library, and it is spectacular!

John sits down with Skip Auld, the Executive Director of the Anne Arundel County Library, and he brings the Crabs up to speed on all the new features and services that the library offers, including Lynda.com, Kanopy streaming movies, Overdrive for ebooks and audiobooks, Rosetta Stone, Brainfuse, and much, much more. And Skip has news about the new construction and new location at Westfield Annapolis. This is worth the listen, folks!

NOTE: We are now on Spotify!  Check it out!

And hey, check out the Eye On Annapolis Daily News Brief!  Ten minutes every day at noon (soon to be 7am) will bring you up to speed on all the LOCAL issues, sports, weather, events and opinions in Annapolis and  Anne Arundel County.  Here's your link... http://bit.ly/EOA-DNB
