1. The Day (most) Sports Stood Still - a podcast by Andrew, Ed, and Zak

On the season three premier of the Bill Bradley Collective, the hosts examine protest in sports within the broader context of the national movement. As the NBA, followed by the NHL and select MLB teams, withheld their professional services following the police shooting of Jacob Blake, the panel discusses the actions of these athletes, how their response was covered by the sports and mainstream media, their role in the national protest movement for racial equality and social justice, and most importantly, what comes next. But first the rants, where Zak implores the “anonymous” sources leaking out the many Trump improprieties to own their truth and put name to tape, Ed challenges the professional and personal merits of latest Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient and self-believed paragon of Catholic virtue Lou Holtz, and Andrew reflects on the legacy of the late Tom Seaver and how Mets ownership deserves neither legends of his stature nor the voices for social reform occupying their clubhouse today. Come for the conversation, enjoy the rants, but stick around as one host is officially set to pop his tattoo cherry, while the others engage in some truly horrific karaoke.
