Mike Safo with Shaun Clancy, owner of Foley's

Joined today by the owner of the best baseball bar in the country, Foley’s, Shaun Clancy. Shaun is calling in from sunny Florida and updating us on how he’s been spending his days since having to close the infamous bar due to COVID. He shares his family’s history in the hospitality industry and what famous mob patron gave to his dad as a farewell “gift” before going back to Ireland. Shaun brings us back to Old New York and tells us how the name Foley’s came to be and the creation of the Irish American Baseball Hall of Fame. We discuss the up’s and downs of owning a bar, how the bar business will never be the same after COVID, and how he made sure his staff were all taken care of. From what his dad did with Mickey Mantle’s jersey to trying to get the Pope to sign a baseball. You’re going to hear stories about David Wright, Vin Scully, Joe D and many many more!
