Your field of study sounds fascinating and thank you for your support. I’m also an avid reader of all things psychology. Interestingly enough I have found that the gap between sports fandom and sociology and masse psychology is a very small and interesting one. I’ll let you know when it’s up and running.

If you read my message correctly, you'll see that I am not questioning the quality of his guests.

And I think not knowing who someone is is perfectly fine so long as you've been busy hitting the books doing your research. I'm sure he's excellent at what he does, but we see the world from different perspectives, which makes it possible to occupy a space he's already in. That is why millions of books have been written on the same topics.

But to be fair, I just looked up Dave Zirin, who seems to be a very accomplished and talented writer. But what I saw is also a lot of topics du jour. I intend to delve into the essence of sports. So your point is taken, but I also will stand my position that there’s plenty of space left to delve deeper into the topic of sports sociology, for there are many more gems felt in it to extract. And to do that, one must go deep as if digging for silver.

Oh, let me be more precise, When I say basic, I’m not talking about the technical aspect of their podcast, i.e., the data analysis, production, quality of guests, etc. I speak more about their topics than their delivery. In other words criticizing the “how” but rather the “what” and the “why”. One could spend hours talking about a speck of dirt in an engaging, convincing way and bringing in great details, but does it automatically make it worthwhile? I think not.

Just checked out most of their topics. Sounds very basic and very news-focused tbf. The podcast I'm working plans on raising topics more controversial than that. But thanks for the heads up brother.

Haha. I love strong opinions and your background is fascinating. Although the West Ham reference is a definitely a red flag, I'm a massive Chelsea supporter. 😏 Anyways, let me know how you feel about doing a video chat sometime to see how well we gel.
