In this episode, Farouk Ramzan talks with Prof. Garnett Slatton, the former CEO of the Washington Wizards who is responsible for reviving the franchise from chronic unprofitability and making basketball cool again in D.C. Slatton talks about the flaws of the NBA today, finding God in the midst of suffering, Orlando frat parties, and how “it is more important to have a life of significance than a life of success.”
