    In The LA Pledge's pilot episode, transit advocates and Los Angeles sports fans Jon Rosen and Carter Rubin articulate their transit advocacy and, despite the pace of Amtrak's Capitol Corridor, praise the Bay Area's public transit network as a model for Los Angeles' expanding infrastructure. Springfield, Mass. native Mike Scully, The Simpsons executive producer, showrunner and writer, joins for an extended conversation about Lisa on Ice, one of the most critically acclaimed episodes of animation history, and how it was influenced by his adolescence as a beloved fan of the AHL's Springfield Kings.
