Jonah Keri storms the gates with San Francisco Giants play-by-play announcer Dave Flemming over interning for The George Michael Sports Machine (and the SNL George F. Will parody); spontaneity vs. planning in broadcasting; their respective childhoods in sports cars and station wagons; interleague play; Dave’s bachelor’s and master’s degrees in classics; winning the nerdiest of nerdy competitions; career help from Larry Lucchino; calling a no-hitter for his second major league game; Barry Bonds as a polarizing figure; working with the Giants crew of announcers; finding your voice, literally; how some broadcasters make baseball seem boring; Bruce Bochy’s unique managerial style; expansion; and Dave’s Life Tips.
