Peter Schorsch hunkers down with attorney, entrepreneur and community activist Tony DeSisto who specializes in working with municipal governments. DeSisto also co-founded Citizinvestor, a crowdfunding and engagement platform that provides alternative funding for civic projects.
The two spend time chatting about television viewing in the age of hunkering down, including a philosophical discussion of the revived hit The Wire.
That series looks at Baltimore’s narcotics things through the lens of law enforcement and the media and has reemerged as a binge favorite as more and more Americans stick to their living rooms for entertainment.
They also discuss professional sports and contemplate what post-coronavirus fandom might look like. DeSisto makes bold predictions about the NBA, MLB and NFL.
The two also contemplate whether the breather from pro-sports is a potential jumping off point to reimagine how sports are played.
The two also address the controversial topic of school and business re-openings and the long-term effects these closures might have on various industries, including restaurants.
The robust conversation also includes challenges facing working families as they navigate work from home and educating their children.
And how is DeSantis doing? DeSisto offers a balanced analysis.
Special Guest: Tony DeSisto.
