The esports industry has transformed from gamers playing video games as a hobby and student-run clubs into a competitive, collegiate digital playing field as institutions across the country take notice and create their own state-of-the-art esports programs. Boise State University’s Varsity Esports Head Coach, Doc Haskell, returns to our athletics podcast series. We discuss the exponential growth of esports programs on campuses in recent years, how esports awards increase collegiate esports programs’ visibility and boost funding opportunities and how name, image and likeness (NIL) serves as guide to focus on student success.
Doc also reveals what it takes to build a world-class collegiate esports program: put the student first.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
