Not sure if Kalle Sauerland should be discussing the man's health in this situation.

Why do you say that? I thought Kalle was very measured and sensitive in his comments, as well as making it clear how his family had supported Frenkel. I'd be amazed if anyone listening to the podcast could form a negative impression from his comments.

On a separate note, having devoured the Sauerland and Booth episodes I'm now on the Darren Barker one and it's another absolute cracker. I've read plenty of interviews with Barker and Tris really is doing a fantastic job of securing insights and capturing emotion that really go way beyond what's already out there. Great stuff.

Havent heard this edition but I'm curious to know if Frenkel is happy that his health is out there for public consumption. He might be totally fine with it obviously.
Tris has done a great job with the series so im sure he wouldn't sensationalist it.
The Billy Graham episode is fantastic if you haven't heard it.

If you take a listen fella you'll hear that the notion Frenkel is in a position to make a call either way is sadly not the case :TU:
Will definitely check out the Billy Graham one as well, cheers.

Working my way through these after having read The Road To Nowhere. Absolutely top notch. Tris Dixon is a treasure as far as boxing journalists go.
