65. Jon Laster Returns: Playing Legacy Ball

When Jon Laster was last on the podcast in the summer of 2020, Mike and Jon talked race relations in America and the relationship between tragedy and comedy. Now Jon returns to discuss his thoughts on what has changed, what has stayed the same, and how his frustration led him to create an app called Blapp, which helps support black-owned businesses. Plus, stories and jokes about Jon’s mother showing up to watch Jon play basketball on a team he wasn’t on, finding a better word for "billionaire," and why Mike doesn't wear a speedo.<br /> <br /> Please consider donating to:<br /> <a href="http://www.joinjara.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">Jara</a> <p>Check out <a href= "https://apps.apple.com/us/app/blapp-black-owned-businesses/id1573799218" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Blapp</a> and help support black-owned businesses.</p>
