This episode of the Oral History of the Dan Le Batard Show covers one of the most challenging, but creatively fulfilling times in our history. Dan, Stu, and the rest of the crew are putting together great shows with fun bits and becoming bonafide stars at ESPN. Racial and political tensions in the United States, such as Colin Kaepernick’s national anthem protests and Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, are just on the horizon, though, which leads to conflict between Dan and the executives in Bristol, with Mike Ryan inevitably getting caught in the middle. Would John Skipper’s seal of approval be enough to quell these tensions, or would Dan’s inability to “stick to sports” be too detrimental to overcome? Find out as Dan, Stu, and Mike reminisce about this period. And make sure to hang around for a great super cut featuring our interviews with Trump, the famous afilador conversation, and Stugotz’s shameless restaurant reservations.
