Today's word of the day is 'Juneteenth' and I need to admit I didn't know what it was. So I did some research and I spoke to a lot of people about this. Let's talk through what I learned and how important it is (0:06). You're not going to believe this, but the MLB and MLBPA have released MORE STATEMENTS! We're a broken record here on Nothing Personal because everyday is the same thing between the two (9:00). Five Philadelphia Phillies players and some staffers have tested positive for covid-19 and this is major. We've been focusing on the economic side of negotiations for MLB, but it's this that could end baseball (18:25). Review - Dead to Me (Season 1 & 2) (24:30). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me about Eugene Melnyk, Ottawa Senators ending relations with the Senators Foundation - an organization I have donated to in the MLBeard Challenge. There are reports that only $5000 of a budgeted $100,000 were contributed to Melnyk's Organ Project. What do I make of this and from my Montreal and Miami experience, could I please explain the key relationship dynamics between a team and its associated charities/foundations (26:48). MLBeard Challenge Day 96: Guitars Over Guns. NBA players will wear rings that could predict if you have coronavirus or not (33:10). The Oura Ring measures temperature, heart rates, and other health factors. Will NBA players wear these? #waittosee
