In this episode, the guys jump into the idea of "fun" in the sport experience being taboo and interfering with "focus." The entire idea of this episode stems from this tweet: https://twitter.com/Rastogi_Aseem/status/1499495420808077313 and the video underneath of the Phoenix Suns enjoying their warmups together as a team singing and dancing to NBA Youngboy's "Nevada."

Part II is more geared toward the on-court/field experience and how we can inject fun into player development, and making the sport experience the "cool" thing to do. Aseem shares stories from his time taking over failing programs and Kyle reflects on the lack of fun while winning - something that most people would trade their current experience for in a heartbeat.
