Rose's death was reported on September 30. In honor of this amazing, iconic … but also tragically-cursed athlete, we are replaying our episode from 2021 –

“Forgive Pete Rose? Fall Of A Legend” We re-open the case of Pete Rose, one of the greatest baseball players in history. He has several performance records that may never be broken. But to the surprise of all, he was permanently expelled from baseball in 1989 for gambling on the game – an activity millions of Americans do each day. This expulsion makes Rose ineligible for induction into the Hall Of Fame. Add to that the multiple statutory rape charges and tax evasion. Sympathetic heartbreaking figure? – or scum bag? We dive deep into the REAL truth behind his sudden, catastrophic downfall.

Longtime listeners will recognize our founding co-host, Kassia, on the microphone. Today, Kassia co-hosts a great podcast of her own with her partner Dylan: unburied-books.castos.com/
