NOW, TRUMP MUST BE PROSECUTED FOR ESPIONAGE A BLOCK (1:30) The New York Times' blockbuster and a stunning Trump leak of a letter from the National Archives makes it inevitable (2:15) There is no prosecutorial discretion here: if you've stolen MORE THAN 300 CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS THEY HAVE TO PROSECUTE YOU (2:43) And if some are the highest level of classification, you must be prosecuted FOR ESPIONAGE (3:00) The Times also implied there's video of people actually mishandling these documents (3:41) DOJ also isn't sure Trump isn't hiding MORE classified docs at Mar-a-Lago (5:08) None of the crimes mentioned on the search warrant are affected even if Trump somehow DID declassify the papers he stole (5:27) You also don't want to be Christina Bobb right now (6:47) Trump's motion to have a 'Special Master' review everything seized is described as 'Alice In Wonderland' (7:22) and incredibly it contains Trump boasting of how he got a threat relayed to Attorney General Garland (8:37) Judge Reinhart also seems to be leaning against unsealing the search warrant affidavit - in part for Trump's physical safety (9:55) Trump flunky Kash Patel is blaming the Government Services Administration because they haven't gotten around to blaming the moving company yet (10:05) Early Tuesday somebody connected to Trump LEAKED A NATIONAL ARCHIVES LETTER TO TRUMP'S LAWYER and ex-journalist John Solomon posted it (10:30) Archivist Debra Wall has detailed all of Trump's efforts to keep the stolen documents through the first five months of this year (11:07) Wall says Trump tried to claim executive privilege over them! The Biden White House finally agreed to waive any executive privilege (11:49) But Solomon (and presumably Trump) think the mere mention of Biden in the letter will let them paint this as Biden politically attacking Trump (12:09) without realizing that the letter confirms Trump DELIBERATELY held on to the documents and cannot claim some kind of mistake (12:39) And Wall even notes some documents were "Special Access Program materials" - bureaucratic speak of ultra-secret Black Ops programs. Trump is in twice as much trouble as he was before Solomon posted (15:20) They won't listen, but this would be a good time for his supporters to bail out on Trump because it's all indictments from here on in. B BLOCK (19:05) Every Dog Has Its Day: Roxy (20:33) Postscripts To The News: there's a Trump Electoral Fraud scandal too. The Your-Kraken-Is-Showing crowd seems to have illegally disseminated election data to people like friends of Sean Hannity (21:59) Why did The New York Times run a Trump Op-Ed by Rich Lowry when (23:13) it could've just reprinted his self-gratifying assessment of Sarah Palin's wink from 2008? (24:47) Sports: Tom Brady's back. The Masked Singer? Refilled his consecrated ground? (25:17) Bryce Harper's minor league rehab is...SPONSORED? (27:40) Trump, Tim Michels and Russia Ron Johnson compete for Worst Persons honors, with Ron insisting he was only involved in the coup for just "seconds." C BLOCK (32:00) My career stories - Things I Promised Not To Tell - focuses in this episode on the most talented (and most self-destructive) person I've ever worked with. He was a New York and Los Angeles radio news anchor and TV news reporter named Will Spens. He was a genius, but his ability to do what others would not try, eventually destroyed him.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Nats ended their six game skid by topping Philadelphia 3-2 on the road. Mark (Live from Philly) & Al have plenty of praise for the pitching staff as Josiah Gray set a career high with 11 strikeouts in what might have been his best outing yet. The "A" bullpen came up big as well, including Tanner Rainey who notched the save. (15:03) Juan Soto and his calf returned to the starting lineup after being on the bench the past few games. It is nice to have him back, but why is he bunting in the top of the 4th? Keibert Ruiz scored the game winning run despite running through Gary DiSarcina's stop sign. What exactly happened there? Ruiz however continued to impress as he threw out another runner to complete a "Strike 'Em Out/ Throw 'Em Out" double play.

What is it really like working in Minor League Baseball? Kurt Landes, Lehigh Valley IronPigs President and General Manager joins the Work In Sports podcast to share his experience in MiLB.Hey, everybody, I'm Brian Clapp VP of Content and Engaged Learning at WorkInSports.com and this is the Work in Sports podcast…ESPN had it right when they named their network in 1979. While most of us hear ESPN and immediately associate it as a sports brand, the actual name stands for Entertainment and Sports Programming Network.Sports is entertainment - the overarching theme of attending a movie or going to a sports event is the same -- you want to be entertained. Nowhere is this concept of sports as entertainment taken more seriously than in Minor League Baseball. 176 teams, often in smaller cities like Eugene, Biloxi and Lake Elsinore, unifying under a perspective that to get people to buy tickets, merchandise and concessions means they need to be entertained by more than the game itself. This is the platform every night in Minor League baseball -- what can we do tonight that will make people see value in the money they spent, a sense of community and just have a good time?!How do we create an environment where fans say, man, I had so much fun at the game last night. It's the perfect calculus between affordable tickets, food and concessions, creative marketing and entertainment… and sponsorships. In minor league baseball, everything has to be seen as a sales opportunity.  And that is where the role of President and General Manager in minor league baseball differs from the majors. In major league baseball GM's are in charge of player development, the roster, coaches and more  -- in minor league baseball it's all about the business of entertainment, and turning a good time into revenue for the operation. In my mind, there is no better training ground to work in the business of sports than minor league baseball -- the opportunities to learn all angles of the business, how decisions relate to revenue creation and gain experience are without parallel. But even more, to understand the importance of entertainment and keeping the fans happy, because without fans there is no product. No one knows this better than today's guest Kurt Landes, President and GM of the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, winners of the 2019 Larry MacPhail award given to the top promotional team in minor league baseball…Questions for Kurt Landes, Lehigh Valley IronPigs President and General Manager1:  I have so many questions to ask about minor league baseball and your role as president-general manager of the IronPigs – but before we get into all of that, let's get into your background a little.You've been in minor league baseball since 1995, starting out in community relations for the Toledo Mud Hens and never looking back. Of all the sports, all the leagues and all the roles available in the sports industry – why baseball, and why the minors?2: So many people I've interviewed for this show have jumped sports, or changed from team to media, or team to an agency – but you've been rather consistent. What benefit has it provided you to focus solely on the business of baseball?3: There is no denying the baseball season is a grind. Long seasons, long road trips, games every night – after 25 years in baseball you are an expert on surviving the grind, what advice would you give people starting out in baseball to survive the day-in and day-out?4: The role of a general manager in the minors is much different from that of an MLB general manager – you've been GM and Team President of the IronPigs since the team inception -- can you explain a little of your role and expectations as President and GM of the team and how that differs from an MLB GM?5: Let's talk about branding and overall creativity – minor league baseball as a whole is incredibly gifted at branding. The IronPigs have incredible merchandise, gear, bacon-themed nights, giveaways and so much more.

Let’s go behind the scenes with 15-year Minor League Baseball Veteran, Lindsey Knupp, former Vice President of Marketing & Entertainment for the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, Triple-A Affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies. This episode is filled with industry advice, real-world work stories, and sport office shenanigans that will leave you understanding just why everyone wants to work in sports. Under Lindsey’s direction, the IronPigs' forward-thinking and unique promotions have won multiple awards and have been highlighted in numerous national publications, including The Wall Street Journal, USA Today and Sports Illustrated. Lindsey was the recipient of the 39th MiLB Rawlings Woman Executive of the Year Award, presented annually to a woman who has made outstanding contributions to her club or league, or to baseball. Lindsey currently serves on the Living Sport Advisory Board.

The Phillies farm system has been unique to us hardcore fans for many years. We've seen high and low level prospects move through the system, and now that talent, to an extent, is rather depleted. This week, we wanted to discuss how important the Phillies farm system is to the organization overall, in the future, and how the Lehigh Valley IronPigs are playing a prevalent role as a minor league club. Joining us this week is Kurt Landes, General Manger of the IronPigs who has taken minor league baseball and its experience for fans to another level. Also joining us this week to talk prospects within the farm system as well as what we can expect from the Phillies for the remainder of the 2019 season is Tim Kelly from Phillies Nation and the Locked on Phillies podcast. Lots of Phillies baseball talk this week!But first, we got into whether or not this 2019 Phillies team reminds us of the 2011 Eagles "Dream Team". (approx. 5:30)We then discussed and gave our thoughts on the Eagles backup quarterback position. Will it be Nate Sudfeld or Josh McCown who backs up Carson Wentz when Sudfeld is cleared to play? (approx. 13:00)This week on the Highbrow Segment, we examined and talked about the overarching consequences of Jay-Z, Roc Nation and the NFL coming together in a partnership, and how that recent "marriage" will affect social justice issues that have been raised with NFL players over the years. (approx. 20:30)Then on the Lowbrow Segment, we discussed our new top-3 list: our favorite sports toys growing up as kids. (approx. 37:30)What we're throwing down on the Table this week are two interviews. The first is with Kurt Landes, GM of the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, the Phillies AAA affiliate. We dove into how important the IronPigs have been for minor league baseball, the fan base, and how the 'Pigs brand has grown over the years. (approx. 51:00)Then we spoke to Tim Kelly, Editorial Director for PhilliesNation.com and host of the Locked on Phillies podcast. We dove into the Phillies farm system, and what we can expect from the remainder of this 2019 Phillies season. (approx. 1:09:10)

The Phillies Farm System Up Close (PST Show #310)While the Philadelphia Phillies are having an exciting and interesting start to their season, we cannot forget about their farm system and the talent brewing there. To get into some of the farm system talent and storylines, we brought our friend of the show, Mike Ventola, Manager of Media Relations with the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, onto the show this week. We discussed which talent might and might not be rising up the ranks and what the system means to this Phillies organization in the future.But first, we got into a discussion about the upcoming NFL and Eagles Draft, talent and positions the Birds should be looking to acquire within the first two days. (3:45)Then we dove into how Brett Brown is coaching this Sixers team throughout the playoffs and how he's essentially taken on a more pivotal role as the season has progressed. (12:40)This week on the Highbrow Segment, we reflected on an article written by ESPN's Jeremy Fowler about how many NFL Draft prospects and their prospective agents are spending tens of thousands of dollars in the months leading up to draft day. (23:25)On our Lowbrow Segment this week, it's part two of our best pre-corporate sports stadiums and arenas list. (33:30)What we're throwing down on the Table this week is an in-depth interview with Mike Ventola, who has been a fixture within the Phillies minor league system for years, where we talked about minor league prospects and how the farm looks here in 2019. We first discussed how the Phillies system has grown over the year, and then we dove into the farm system talent where we discussed Adonis Medina, Mickey Moniak and Alec Bohm. We also talked about what Nick Pivetta will need to do in Lehigh Valley to make his way back to Philly. Plus, much more minor league and farm system talk this week. It's a great interview you won't want to miss! (52:10)
