Big Screen Sports - The Sports Movie Podcast
Hosted by Kyle Bandujo, Big Screen Sports is a weekly film review podcast discussing the best and worst in the sports movie universe. The on-screen sports action, big chill moments, actors that may or may not look like athletes, and everything that worked or didn't work about your favorite and least favorite sports movies.
Episodes
One future Oscar winner and four future Oscar nominees star in an absolutely terrible college football movie.
