Remembering Bill Walton & A Conversation About Athletes & Their Place In Politics and Social Justice With Richard Deitsch.

Bill Walton, a National Basketball Association Hall of Famer and one of the sport's biggest broadcasters, has died at age 71.

Richard Deitsch joins the show today as the three reflect on Walton’s career in both basketball and broadcasting.

Given Bill’s involvement in social justice issues, Bob, John, and Richard spend some time discussing the social impact an athlete can have. The three wonder whether or not the influence professional athletes have should be used to tackle the world’s issues, and if so, how much weight should these opinions hold?
