Pick a Side
Mainstream sports media is tiring, isn’t it? Hot takes, bland statements, and generalizations have all worked in combination to ruin the viewing experience. Here is where Pick a Side comes in. We are a podcast dedicated to creating genuine conversations about sports. There will be bias included (we all have them), but they will always be backed up by facts. Come join us on our journey to creating the best sports podcast possible. Hosted by Joel Moran, River Brown, Andrew Velez, and Joel Dehls. Become a Paid Subscriber:
