In light of the recent deaths of two Redskins greats–Hall of Fame quarterback Sonny Jurgensen and linebacker Monte Coleman–plus the unveiling of new Commanders burgundy and gold uniforms, I appeared on The Chris Russell Show on Sports Talk 980: https://www.audacy.com/podcasts/the_chris_russell_show/episodes/author_and_team_historian_mike-8356746.

In the interview, I also plugged my new book to be released entering the 2026 season, The Washington Pro Football Encyclopedia, a bigger and much better update of my 2007 book The Redskins Encyclopedia. You can pre-order an autographed copy by going to my web site: www.mikerichmanjournalist.com.

Lastly, I encouraged people to sign up for the Bike to the Beach for Autism and Disabilities on Friday, June 19. I’m on the planning committee for the ride, which features 25-, 50-, 70- and 100-mile options. The ride is for a wonderful cause. The past 20 years have seen nearly a 300% increase in the diagnosis of autism cases.

It was a pleasure to appear with Chris, who has become a good friend of mine. Thank you, Mr. Russell!!
