Ep 376 - Dave Zirin, Sportswriter on the Side of Justice
Update: 2025-06-19
Description
The sports arena is a microscope into our culture, and Dave Zirin is peering through the glass with a thoughtful and searing eye. A longtime sportswriter and commentator, Dave is the sports editor for The Nation, a weekly progressive magazine dedicated to politics and culture. He joins AirGo on this episode to chat about the role of sports as both distraction and prism in a time of fascism, how militarism has coopted sports culture, and his relationship to the sports discourse mainstream.
