Jeff also shares his thoughts on how Major League Baseball could improve how they broadcast games through more thoughtful and creative camera angles, better graphics, miking players and giving the viewing audience a more compelling product.

This week we dive into the murky waters of Federal Finance!

Additionally, Terry gets some love from a listener and the guys learn that they got this one thing wrong their whole lives!

In this episode Terry leads a discussion on the origins of a "Pardon" and how it has evolved and been used and misused by US Presidents.
