This week the guest is ESPN commentator Bomani Jones. In the podcast, Jones discusses why he believes 10-1 ET is the best slot in radio, how he prepares for Highly Questionable and his ESPN radio show, how race plays into sports talk, where the line exists on Twitter when debating with colleagues and the public, the impact of his parents (both of whom are college professors and activists in the 1960s), what his ESPN future holds and much more.
