We’re waiting for the hurricane bats. A podcast about where pop culture and sports culture collide… inspired by the relationship between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Culture critic and novelist Zan Romanoff and journalist and Scamfluencers senior producer Sarah Enni discuss the chalk-ass end to March Madness; vasectomies!; reckless rumors; dumb dummies with megaphones and mini brains; the saga of Stephen A. and LeBron gets even weirder; and Hallmark begins a long-term relationship with the NFL.
