Host Beto Duran welcomes Sports & Culture columnist LZ Granderson to discuss a wide range of topics. The conversation starts with Granderson's recent story on Alex Cora's White House snub. As LZ often explores the territory beyond the X's and O's of sports that impacts culture, the conversation goes on a natural progression to where Beto and LZ cover many topics of the day and explore the history that brought us here. Later in the show, LZ and Beto examine what motivates Granderson to strive to be the journalist he is, when there are clearly easier routes to take and not speak up on the issues that Granderson seeks to explore.
