Merri Eckert grew up down the street from Munir and Rob Haddad in Tuckahoe, New York and went on to become an Emmy Award-winning producer for Major League Baseball, the NBA, and the New York Jets, with credits on CBS, NBC, Fox, and ESPN.
She rebooted the legendary "This Week in Baseball". She produced MLB's first-ever high-definition television show. She was on the field for the All-Century Team ceremony at the 1999 All-Star Game -- an assignment she landed almost by accident, two days after the system holding months of her work crashed completely.
On this episode, Merri and the guys talk about growing up bored in a small town (and why that boredom mattered), the mentor who taught her to "handle it with grace" before she ever picked up a camera professionally, the Mariano Rivera shot she still calls one of the best of her career, and why she thinks telling a kid to specialize by third grade is exactly backwards.
Check out this episode's mixtape of songs that remind of a ('80s) high school dance.
