“There’s just something about Kansas City.”™ It may be the most-heard phrase from those who are from here, those who have come here, & those who have chosen to stay.

A sense of zero degrees of separation in a city of champions. For each of us, that “something” is a story crafted through years of experiences, big and small, that have planted the Heart of America so deeply in our own. Join legendary Kansas City sports broadcaster Frank Boal each week for deep, down-to-earth conversations with some of this town’s most legendary residents, both natives and transplants, and hear what it is about Kansas City that just keeps calling them home.

Alex Gordon: Kansas City’s Homerun
  • We’re throwing it back to our conversation with Alex Gordon, one of the greatest players in Kansas City Royals history and a future Royals Hall of Famer. Known for his grit, gold gloves, and iconic leadership during the 2015 World Series Championship run, Alex shares the story behind his legendary career.

    From being labeled the “next George Brett” to struggling early on at third base, Alex’s path was anything but smooth. But a key move to left field changed everything — sparking a career defined by elite defense, hard work, and unshakable determination.

    In this episode, Alex opens up about:

    • His transformation from top prospect to team leader

    • Winning the World Series with the Royals

    • The meaning behind the “Alex Gordon Heart and Hustle Award”

    • His pride in being a Nebraska Cornhusker and College Baseball Hall of Famer

    • How he and his family are now giving back to the Kansas City community

    If you're a fan of baseball, underdog stories, or hometown heroes — this one’s for you.
