Although the Transforming Sport podcast is run by and features discussions with academic researchers, our intention is to discuss these kinds of issues in ways which appeal to listeners outside of academia. For listeners who want to engage with deeper theoretical questions, think critically about research methods and so on, we will provide links in each podcast to academic literature to help keep the conversation going. Thank you for listening to this introduction; we hope that your interest has been piqued, and invite you to continue listening.
