HWTP SPORTS TALK

Guest Mike Pesca: author of Upon Further Review, host of the Slate daily podcast The Gist; he also contributes reports and commentary to NPR. Excerpts from his discussion with David Weinstein... ‘what-if’ “One of the last things I did as editor was I went through the entire book and I searched for the phrase ‘butterfly effect'...I wanted to use it no more than three times, so I had to cross a couple out.” On a chapter written by former NPR host Robert Siegel that imagines an alternate universe in which the Dodgers had never left Brooklyn…‘what-if’ "Just to hear Robert Seagull pretend that the Dodgers were still in Brooklyn...He spends 30 years building up his credibility and ruins it with this one story." "The best ‘what-if’ happened after the book went to publisher, which is what if the US had qualified for this World Cup?" Join the conversation!
