Live from PC Richard & Son in Astoria, Queens — Vito Calise & Jonathan Baron sit down with Mets Hall of Famer and longtime PR chief Jay Horwitz for an absolute masterclass in Mets lore. Jay goes deep on the brawl culture of the 1986 Mets (Eric Davis vs. Ray Knight!), why Mike Tyson loved that team, and why “nobody fights anymore.” He shares never-before-told David Wright clubhouse stories (cookies, pranks, leadership), the 2015 comeback, the emotional 2018 farewell, and what made Davey Johnson “analytics before analytics.” We also preview the alumni game (managers, competitiveness, and a “point spread”), remember the Mets-Phillies rivalry of ’07–’08, and talk about ownership honoring franchise history.
Stick around for Jay’s takes on Brandon Nimmo’s leadership, scoreboard mishaps, classic card-pull stories (Howard Johnson, Terry Leach), and the enduring spirit of the Mets alumni family.
Presented by PC Richard & Son.
