The Business of Owning a Sports Team (ft. Orioles Owner David Rubenstein)

Episode 259: What does owning a sports team actually involve – and can they be run like regular businesses?

Plus, David discusses his commitment to Baltimore and what he calls “patriotic philanthropy.” Finally, Ann gives more details on her next steps.
