Participation Trophy Podcast: Episode #15
In our world you’re not 2nd place, you’re first runner-up! Join Abdullah, Jamal, Joe, Neil, and Zain as we school you on sports, media, public shame, and everything else in between. You didn’t get ‘em this time. But at least you tried.
Zain kicks off the show by reading the results of our best Christmas song listener poll. (Hint: you probably heard it this week). In Open Gym, there may or may not be trouble brewing in Washington, but only for the Football Team. We’re optimistic about the Wizards going into this season. In Theater, Jamal discusses the excellent Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom and the really bizarre Baby God. Finally, Tyrese makes his first (and certainly not last) appearance in Detention.
