<p>I don't talk about data science enough on this show. To remedy that, I brought in a remarkable analytics and data science expert - <a href="https://twitter.com/nickwan">Nick Wan</a>, who is a director of analytics for the Cincinnati Reds. Yes - the baseball team. We chat about his track from academia to working for a sports team, and how to build a career outside your typical FAANG (or is it MANGA) scaffolding.</p>
