This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen go inside the head of Mr. Met (literally) with author and former professional mascot AJ Mass.
On the docket…the ups and downs of wearing a gigantic baseball as a head, breaking down Jeff Kent and John Rocker as contestants on “Survivor” and, yeah, that time the Secret Service threatened to kill him.
