A very special guest graced us with his presence ahead of his upcoming book release.
Jon Finkel is a respected author who’s written several sports and family oriented books. He’s also a certified hoops junkie.
I actually just stumbled upon his Twitter profile and immediately knew I had to invite him on the Kentucky Dad Podcast and cross my fingers I’d hear back.
Not only did I hear back, but quickly discovered that his new book — 1996: A Biography — includes a chapter dedicated solely to Rick Pitino and his ‘96 National Championship team.
Jon, a die-hard Boston Celtics fan, obviously had some passionate takes on Pitino and all the ‘96 guys who somehow ended up playing in Beantown.
