When you turn on the news in the morning, you're likely going to be hit with nothing but bad news--more Covid-19 cases, more deaths, more events getting cancelled, etc. While it's definitely important to acknowledge those things, it's also important to pay attention to the businesses reimbursing peoples' airline tickets or the hotel chains offering free rooms to frontline workers.

Tia and Meredith devote this week's episode to nothing but good news (which includes updates on the football season) and the silver linings in the midst of all the chaos.

On LGHL’s Outside the Shoe podcast, we talk all things Ohio State athletics that happen outside the confines of the Horseshoe. 

Ohio State celebrated its largest commencement in school history earlier this month, conferring nearly 13,000 degrees at a virtual ceremony. While University President Michael Drake and a small contingent of university officials were present at Ohio Stadium, the rest of the participants at the commencement, including keynote speaker and Apple CEO Tim Cook, participated virtually. 

Among this group of graduates were 172 student athletes from more than 30 varsity sports programs. Among this group are NCAA and Big Ten All-Americans, conference and national champions and Ohio State scholar athletes and academic All-Americans. 

While their futures on the fields, courts, rinks and tracks of Ohio State remains a question, as the NCAA and universities are still working to figure out a return to sports and what eligibility looks like for some of these graduates, we must take a moment to acknowledge their success on and off the field.

Major League Baseball and the players union are in the process of negotiating for what a truncated baseball season could look like in 2020. The league proposed a 50-50 revenue split between the league and players. Obviously with a shortened season, that would result in a pay cut for players. Tia and Meredith discuss their thoughts on this, what they would do if they were the MLB, and finish the show by discussing what their dream team would look like in the MNF booth now that Joe Tessitore and Booger McFarland are gone.

On LGHL’s Outside the Shoe podcast, we talk all things Ohio State athletics that happen outside the confines of the Horseshoe. 

Ohio State tennis has dominated the Big Ten for the last two decades. Before the 2019-20 season was cut short, both the men’s and women’s squads appeared poised to make deep runs in the NCAA Tournament and, possibly, get over the proverbial hump to win their first NCAA titles in program history. Even after losing three of the nation’s top players, the men’s team reloaded with a top-three recruiting class to continue performing at a high level. 

But with tennis being a sport controlled for years by schools like Stanford, USC and UCLA, how did a program like Ohio State get on the scene? And with the sport itself featuring such a competitive professional circuit, how have the Buckeyes continued to recruit such outstanding talent to stay at the top?

Tia and Meredith begin the show by discussing last weekend's NFL draft, what surprised them about the Buckeyes who were drafted, along with a short rant about the concept of the NFL combine.

The second half of the show, they ask each other wacky job interview questions they found from googling "what are some wacky job interview questions." Tia explains what state she would get rid of if she could and Meredith describes, in detail, what she would do if she found a penguin in her freezer.
