Host Chad Millman describes today's guest as "possibly the greatest magazine writer of his generation." He's gushing about his longtime friend and colleague Chris Jones, now the author of a new book titled The Eye Test: A Case for Human Creativity in the Age of Analytics. 

With co-host Simon Hunter off on a well-deserved vacation, Chad and Chris discuss the book and its argument for human inputs of experience and "embodied analysis" in an era where data has been treated as infallible. In a spirited discussion, Chad also applies the book's many lessons and anecdotes to the world of sports and sports betting.
