Greg Olear wades into sports, where he discusses the appalling contract given by the Cleveland Browns to quarterback Deshaun Watson, who is being sued by 22 massage therapists for sexual misconduct. Then he brings on the investigative journalist David de Jong to talk about de Jong’s fascinating new book, “Nazi Billionaires: The Dark History of Germany’s Wealthiest Families.” Plus: a lost track from Billy Joel’s Russia album.
