The Distraction: A Defector Podcast

The NBA Tush Push with Ray Ratto


Listen Later

Defector’s own Ray Ratto joins Drew and Roth to look ahead at the NBA season after a few games. But really, they need Ray to guide them through the harrowing James Harden trade and the incredibly bold colors of these in-season tournament courts. And as always, we dive into the Funbag!

    About The Show

    From Defector Media: Former Deadspin writers Drew Magary and David Roth should really stick to sports. Sure, their new indie sports podcast will break down the week in sports: the Mets grounding into quadruple plays, NBA players getting testy on the court and horny on Instagram, Bill Belichick cutting 80% of his roster just to keep himself interested, horrifying takes from sports talk radio that need to be broken down, etc. But these two men and their guests will have their fair share of off-the-field issues they’ll also have to address: stupid Funbag questions, bad tweets from bad people, pointless food arguments, and even less. Every week is a VERY long week these days. We could all use a little Distraction. Head to defector.com for more info.
