In segment two, Al invites to the program Anthony Ianni, former MSU basketball player, motivational speaker, and the first Division one basketball player with autism, to talk about the upcoming MSU football season and the work that Ianni has done for the autism community in the past year. We close out the show by playing for you an excerpt from WKAR Reporter Scott Pohl's recent sitdown with new MSU President Samuel L. Stanley.
