This week, Andy invites radio host, journalist, and fellow podcaster, Mike Pesca! Mikes discusses his New York Times Best Selling book "Upon Further Review: The Greatest What-Ifs in Sports History", a book of counterfactual sporting scenarios and the ripple effects that shoulda-coulda-woulda happened. From Muhammed Ali overcoming government conviction, Dwight Clark's "The Catch", Bill Buckner's missed grounder in the '86 World Series, Buster Douglas knocking out Mike Tyson, and the "What-If's?" that didn't make the cut. The two also discuss the current shutdown of sports due to the Coronavirus pandemic, what sports means to society in terms of healing, and what the new future holds for sporting events.
