In an industry where credentials once decided who got to talk, anyone with a camera and an opinion can claim a seat now, and nobody’s required to answer for it. This episode asks what that shift actually cost.Just in time to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Pardon The Interruption, Michael Wilbon comes in ready to fight about it.

Patti Smith is an icon, a wordsmith, a dreamer. But she would never call herself a musician. Patti joins Dan on South Beach Sessions, explaining why she has always seen herself as a performer, first.
