On this week's episode, journalist and author Reyan Ali joins us to discuss his new book -- appropriately titled NBA JAM: THE BOOK. Get an inside look at how one of Midway's most famous games came together, how it helped spark off a renaissance of arcade playtime across the country, how it invigorated a devout fan community of amateur detectives, and how it found its way into the hearts and minds of actual NBA players like SHAQ. Seriously, Shaq has this amazingly touching anecdote. I say this every damn week, but this really was one of the greatest episodes.
