Show notes

Our next installment comes out on Thursday, and it’s all about baseball, but don’t worry — it’s not as boring as it sounds. We tell the tale of an elderly ex-ballplayer whose son helps him fulfill his dying wish to attend a game at every major league ballpark.

Emphasis on “dying wish,” because the poor old guy dies pretty early on in the trip, and that’s only the first terrible thing that happens.
