Mike Vaccaro of the New York Post joins the show to discuss his new book The Bosses of the Bronx and the fascinating legacy of George Steinbrenner. We dive into how Steinbrenner became known as “The Boss,” whether his larger-than-life persona was truly who he was or partly an act, and what most people still get wrong about one of the most polarizing figures in sports history.

We also talk about how quickly he changed from calling himself an absentee owner at his opening press conference to becoming one of the most hands-on owners in sports, how he embraced Yankees success while enjoying Mets struggles, and how he might handle the current landscape with Steve Cohen owning the Mets. Mike shares insight into the origins of the Yankees’ famous beard and hair rules, Steinbrenner’s relationship with the media, and some of his favorite stories from the book—including one that didn’t make the final cut.

We also explore whether George would thrive or clash in today’s social media era, if owners like him still exist, whether the Yankees are fundamentally different now than they were under his leadership, and just how many times Brian Cashman might have been fired if George were still in charge.

Plus... of course we had to dive into a little UConn/St. John's talk with Mike!
