Steve interviews Kostya Kennedy (00:22:02) the author of a new book about Paul Revere. Kennedy returns to the show to discuss his new book, The Ride. Kennedy explains the challenges of writing a book that takes place in the 18th century and why he wanted to write a book about someone from history instead of sports. Kennedy also talks about Revere's work as a dentist, his historic ride alerting people of the British coming, and his personal life as a father of sixteen children. Steve and Kostya also talk about Pete Rose and his chances at the Hall of Fame now that he has passed on, Alex Ovechkin chasing Wayne Gretzky's record for career goals, and what Kostya might want to write about for his next book.

Steve starts the show with first things first. The 2025 Braves are in trouble, the Sabres need a goalie, and Italy has one reason for existing in 2025. The book club is loaded with four books. The show ends with one last thing about having Flu B.
