Gist: Uncle Verne Pulls Up a Chair

from Slate Magazine Daily Podcast

On The Gist, “violent,” “vicious,” and “terrible.” These are a few of Trump’s favorite words. In the interview, Verne Lundquist announced sports games for decades. But in retirement, he has more time for classical music than whatever game is on TV. “I'm not a passionate sports fan,” he says. “I've got X number of years to live in this life—let's experience as much of it as we can." Lundquist is the author of Play by Play: Calling the Wildest Games in Sports-From SEC Football to College Basketball, The Masters, and More. In the Spiel, there are four kinds of presidents. Trump’s the worst kind. This episode is brought to you by the following advertisers:  Exchanges, a podcast from Goldman Sachs. Listen today wherever you get your podcasts. Merrill Lynch.
