  Merri Eckert: Why "Pick One Thing By Third Grade" Is Bad Advice

  Aug 17, 202645 minS1

  Merri Eckert grew up down the street from Munir and Rob Haddad in Tuckahoe, New York and went on to become an Emmy Award-winning producer for Major League Baseball, the NBA, and the New York Jets, with credits on CBS, NBC, Fox, and ESPN. She rebooted the legendary "This Week in Baseball". She produced MLB's first-ever high-definition television show. She was on the field for the All-Century Team ceremony at the 1999 All-Star Game -- an assignment she landed almost by accident, two days after the system holding months of her work crashed completely. On this episode, Merri and the guys talk about growing up bored in a small town (and why that boredom mattered), the mentor who taught her to "handle it with grace" before she ever picked up a camera professionally, the Mariano Rivera shot she still calls one of the best of her career, and why she thinks telling a kid to specialize by third grade is exactly backwards. Check out this episode's mixtape of songs that remind of a ('80s) high school dance .

  What If The Players Said No? — Uncertainty | Ep. 47

  Aug 3, 202647 minS1

  The docuseries was green-lit. Showtime was in. The Giants were six weeks off their first World Series parade. And Rob still didn't have the one signature that mattered: the MLB Players Association. This week Rob and Munir sit down with uncertainty on purpose. Rob tells the story of walking into a Scottsdale clubhouse meeting in February — spring training looming, no leverage, twelve years of relationships as his only anchor — to ask a room of professional baseball players to let cameras follow them all season. Some wanted more. Some wanted the crew nowhere near them. "The Franchise: A Season With the San Francisco Giants" won an Emmy for Best Edited Series. Munir goes back to a Dartmouth 3D design studio and a professor — a world-renowned artist who carved working typewriters out of wood — who kept refusing to let him start cutting. "Why does your clay model look the way it does? What's your reason?" Munir couldn't answer. "Not ready yet." He's been defending the why ever since. Also in this one: uncertainty as a gift rather than a threat, per Maggie Jackson ("To be in the suspense of uncertainty is one of the greatest gifts we can give each other"). Why "you're only uncertain until you make a choice." The cost of turning the thing you love into the thing that pays you. Rob's 2000-era flip phone as a fidget device. And a mixtape: Tom Petty, Springsteen, India.Arie, O.C., Marvin Gaye, George Benson, and Wilco. Chapters (00:00) "What if the players said no?"

  Ep 46: Sondra Bernstein — Who Am I Without The Girl & The Fig?

  Jul 27, 202659 minS1

  Sondra Bernstein spent nearly 30 years building The Girl & The Fig into one of Sonoma's most beloved restaurants. Then she walked away to become an artist — at 60. She went back to the fine arts photography degree she earned at 22, dove into AI and digital art, and now creates as 4EverKurious. Her work has shown on the billboards of Times Square, at the NFC Conference in Lisbon, and in galleries in Paris. Her digital gallery, PROTO.logue, just opened inside Dead Letter in Sonoma. She tells Rob and Munir about the six months of tears it took to leave, why she refused to keep being "the brand," being the worst server in TGI Fridays history before becoming the best, months spent silently lurking on Clubhouse, the day Beeple walked into a room having just sold a JPEG for $69 million, the hate mail she got for hanging her own AI work in her own restaurant, and why winemaking and making art with AI are the same act: curation. "Don't doubt yourself. If it appeals to you, it'll appeal to somebody else — if you care." The Mixtape this week is Songs for the Kurious. Sondra picked Gil Scott-Heron, The Tragically Hip, U2 and CSN. Rob picked Slick Rick, The Who and The Jackson 5. Munir picked Jack Johnson, Bowie and Daft Punk.

  Alfonso Pozzo: 5 Emmys, 5 World Cups, and the Making of a Sports Storyteller

  Jul 20, 20261h 4mS1

  "Is your name Alfonso?" — a stranger returns a lost World Cup ticket, and a career built on hustle, identity, and storytelling comes full circle. This week, the happiest guys on the internet welcome 5-time Emmy winner Alfonso Pozzo — director, showrunner, and founder of Juxtapozz Films, with 18 years at MLB Productions and MLB Network. Alfonso and Rob first crossed paths in an MLB edit bay in 1999, and this conversation catches up on everything in between: growing up between Spain, Honduras, Cuba, and Miami, a wall of rejection letters before the big break, building MLB's Spanish-language show Sabor from scratch, and why singing his country's national anthem in a packed stadium — thousands of miles from home — is the moment he keeps chasing. Plus: five World Cups ranked, and a mixtape of the songs that sound like football. Yo Munir! is a weekly conversation celebrating creativity and practice, hosted by brothers Rob and Munir Haddad.
