Jason begins by discussing the dysfunctional White Sox and the state of their culture. He then talks with New York Times bestselling author Jeff Pearlman to discuss Season 2 of ‘Winning Time’ on HBO, which is an adaptation of his book ‘Showtime: Magic, Kareem, Riley, and the Los Angeles Lakers Dynasty of the 1980s.' Pearlman delves into his process as a biographer and tells stories about showing up unannounced at Isaiah Rider’s house and a plumbing incident at Spencer Haywood’s house (16:22).
