Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Guest Host: Jen Golbeck
Late last year, President Barack Obama maneuvered to begin normalizing diplomatic relations with Cuba for the first time in half a century. The news immediately triggered conversations about how the process would affect professional baseball — one of the few avenues through which the two countries have interacted during that diplomatic freeze. Sports Illustrated Senior Writer S.L. Price joins us to explore how sports have defined the relationship between the two countries for decades, and where things may go from here.
