Eben Novy-Williams and Michael Barr are joined by longtime Boston radio personality Mike Lynch to discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including this weekend's conference call between President Donald Trump and the commissioners of the country's largest sports leagues. According to the White House and reporting from ESPN, Trump told them he wanted to have fans back in stadiums and arenas around August, and suggested that the NFL season should start on time in September. He also raised the idea of the leagues working together to lobby for entertainment tax incentives that were lost in 2017-18 tax reform. Also talked about is the UFC's plan to host its April 18 event at a secret location yet to be announced, and the NBA 2K Players Tournament, airing on ESPN, in which NBA stars compete against each other in video games.
