Show Notes

Harry Marino led the charge to unionize minor league baseball players, eventually securing massive pay and benefit increases. Now he is turning his attention to a larger project: organizing non-union sports workers from coaches to stadium workers. He joins the show to explain what worked with the minor leagues and how he intends to build on that success with this next project under his new organization, Sports Solidarity.

Plus, the Chiefs, Browns, and Panthers are all seeking public funds for new NFL stadiums or major renovations and JJ Redick could parlay a podcast into a head coaching gig.
