Legacy Building Beyond the Baseball Diamond - A Conversation with Al of “Crimefaces”

Prison To Millions

The crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd—baseball isn't just a game; it's a thread in the fabric of American history. Reggie Jackson's legendary performance is more than a fond family memory for me—it's a gateway to a feisty debate about baseball championships with my co-host, Al of “Crimefaces.” We take a swing at the weighty issues surrounding titles won before the integration of minority players, questioning if these accolades deserve the same place on the mantle of sports legacy as those earned post-integration.

Life throws curveballs, and it's not always on the mound—just ask the guy from Flatbush who went from hauling trash to sitting in the executive suite. We share an inspiring tale of transformation that's anything but garbage, as we're reminded that ambition, a supportive partner, and seizing the opportunities—even during a pandemic—can rewrite the playbook of one's destiny. It's a story that resonates beyond the streets of Brooklyn, challenging us all to consider how we're crafting our own legacies and shaking up the traditional job market for the next generation.

Closing out, I'm passing you the literary equivalent of a secret playbook, "Who Not How" by Ben Hardy and Dan Sullivan. This book isn't just a read; it's a catalyst for change that's had a profound impact on my own journey from the booth to the boardroom. So, to all our listeners from Staten Island to New Jersey, including those of you in the shadow of the mighty Campbell Soup in Camden, here's to finding your "who" and reshaping your "how." And with that, Al drops his signature send-off, capping another episode that's as rich in diversity as it is in dialogue.
