Ep. 229: Should We Even Have Sports on Holidays?

In this episode, Shireen Ahmed, Lindsay Gibbs and Brenda Elsey discuss sports played on holidays. But first they start with a question of superpowers. Then, they dive into the topic of sports on holidays, tackling questions such as: What is the labor history of sports on holidays? Is it fair to athletes and their families? Should we just cancel sports on holidays?
Following the main discussion, you'll hear a preview of Shireen's interview with Asher Hill, figure skating coach and choreographer. Next, they set aflame all the worst of sports this week in The Burn Pile. Then, they celebrate those making sports better, including Torchbearers of the Week the Mexican Women's National Football Team. They wrap up the show with what's good in their lives and what they are watching in sports this week.
