Jeff and Carl welcome guest Joshua Robinson of the Wall Street Journal, co-author of The Club: How the English Premier League Became the Wildest, Richest, Most Disruptive Force in Sports. We run the gamut of Covid-in-sports topics, including the fate of the 2020/21 Tokyo Olympics, the outlook for athletes who want to jump the vaccine queue, the miraculously completed Tour de France, how Wimbledon's response to the pandemic might have been the best of all, and what to expect in international sports once vaccines are widely available. We also touch on a few non-Covid questions, like what Slovenian sports can teach the rest of the world, and what Josh thinks about the underhand serve. We close with a few words about our departed friend and colleague, Tom Perrotta.
