Baseball Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson surprises Rich with a call on his birthday and recalls hitting one of the most memorable All-Star Game home runs ever when he nearly hit the ball over the Tiger Stadium roof in 1971, his reaction to the current hullabaloo in Major League Baseball over pitchers using foreign substances, and his mindset that night in 1977 when he cemented his “Mr. October” legend by hitting 3 homers on 3 pitches against the Dodgers in Game 6 of the World Series. Actress/comedian Iliza Shlesinger and Rich discuss what it’s been like to resume her stand-up comedy tour after taking a year off because of the Covid-19 lockdown, and the strange-but-true story that happened to her that was the basis of her new Netflix movie ‘Good on Paper.’ Rich’s son Xander dials in and makes his case to for the Rich Eisen Show to start up a Tik Tok page, much to TJ Jefferson’s chagrin.
