In this episode, Jessica Luther and Amira Rose Davis are together -- in person! -- to breakdown two (of countless) harmful myths in sport. First: that all coaches are altruistic, good and have a strong moral compass (using Urban Meyer as a perfect example of how this is not true). Second, that women's sports exist only to be inspirational. Following this discussion is a preview of Shireen Ahmed's interview with Jashvina Shah and Evan Moore about their book, "Game Misconduct: Hockey's Toxic Culture and How to Fix It." Then, they burn some of the garbage in sports this week on the Burn Pile. Next, they celebrate those shining light in sports, including Torchbearer of the Week pioneering journalist, Claire Smith, who will be the new co-director of the Claire Smith Center for Sports Media at Temple University. They wrap up the show with what's good in their worlds and what they are watching in sports this week. This episode was produced by Tressa Versteeg, with production help from Kelly Jones.
