Mario Lanza on the state of MLB baseball, SNL and Survivor


The Funny 115's Mario Lanza returns to the Jack Vita Show to discuss the strangeness of the 2020 Major League Baseball season.


What did Mario and Jack think of the shortened season, the expanded playoff field, and the sport's rule changes? How has MLB fared in the television ratings department? And what were the major stories of the 2020 season? (0:00 - 1:07:40). In addition to that, Mario shares a Don Mattingly story and talks Chicago-style pizza, Saturday Night Live season 46 (1:07:40 - 1:17:05) and the future of Survivor (1:17:05 - END). Jack and Mario haven't enjoyed Survivor or Saturday Night Live recently. Is there hope for the future of these storied television franchises.


Check out Mario's website, The Funny 115, his podcasts Staff Picks and Survivor Historians, and buy his book, When It Was Worth Playing For.
