So this may, or may not, come as a shock to you, but growing up, I was never a big fan of sports, either playing, or watching them.  But, it's pretty safe to say that sports have been entwined in our culture and society for over a century at this point, but during the 90s, it was taken to a whole new level.  Not only did you have dominant teams in all of the major professional sports, but you also started seeing athletes in commercials, movies and TV shows, PLUS let's not forget about the HUGE uptick in merchandise.  You had jackets, action figures, video games, you name it.  

On this week's episode of the podcast, Lou Carnevale makes his return, and we're diving a little deeper on the topic of Sports in the 90s, from the players, to the teams, to the merch.  This episode has actually been HIGHLY requested, and I'm so excited we finally got to put it out there.  So grab your favorite beverage and some Totino's pizza rolls, and enjoy two very different perspectives on sports!
