Ace New York politics reporter, all around culture writer and crazed baseball fan Ross Barkan objected to my “Is Baseball Dying?” article. Naturally I had him here to say his piece and boy did we hit on a range of other topics.
* Contra conventional wisdom, is baseball more international than basketball?
* Why might baseball survive the future?
* Pete Rose was insanely famous in the 1970s, and we’ve forgotten
* Is household name sports celebrity over, post LeBron James and Steph Curry?
* Is Patrick Mahomes anywhere near as famous as prime Tom Brady was?

* Will Swift exist outside her time?
* Travis Kelce’s obvious bid for fame
* Tucker Carlson vs. Bari Weiss on Israel
* Campus fight over Israel
