Ep. 36 Guilty on the Court
Description
In this solo episode, Shannon discusses the current controversy that's rising in the sports world: Steven van de Velde, the beach volleyball player convicted of raping a child, is set to compete in the Paris Olympic Games this year.
Should Olympic athletes be celebrated solely for their physical capabilities? Should someone with a history of heinous crimes be allowed to represent the pinnacle of sportsmanship and national pride? Stand up, do some jumping jacks, and get ready for a passionate rant filled with questions, opinions, and controversy. Cheers!
