Episode 196 – Beat The Level

Someone had to set the bar first before there were any attempts at raising it.

On this week’s episode, Wall $t. calls upon Taylor Rodriguez, Community | Brand Leader at streetwear retailer SNIPESUSA, to succeed at exceeding during their chat on women of colour in the industry, the explosion of women’s sports on the landscape and how this surge can grow and be sustained.

Along the way, we talk kicks, FC21 All World Final and FC21CA’s dominance in it, the WNBA expansion plans, free agency, collective bargaining agreements, Clara Tsai, Whoopi Goldberg, Unrivaled and vegan food on the Lower East Side of Manhattan!

We also see who measured up in the NCAA as we approach Feast Week, laud incredible milestones in Storrs and Denver, review a possible Eastern Conference Finals matchup, check ever-changing power rankings on both the collegiate and professional sides and get a surprise leader atop the NBA’s Rookie Ladder!
