Kyle Scott and Kyle Pagan discuss the industry's reaction to The Savannah Bananas' "new frontier", youth baseball and speculate what that launch will entail. They then talk about Joon Lee's video, "The $40 Billion Industry Built on 8-Year Olds" breaking down the impact of private equity on youth sports and discuss the narratives the media sometimes cherrypicks while acknowledging the challenges parents face to give their kids the best opportunities and experiences possible.
