EP - 43 “The Sports Room 04”
Episode 43 of The Slanted Attic Experience brings another high-energy installment of The Sports Room. Host Tyler sits down with Graham, Liam, and D-Mills for a wide-ranging conversation that blends sharp analysis, sideline humor, and plenty of unexpected detours. From Rory’s historic Masters win to a live Kentucky Derby wager shaping their fantasy football draft order, this episode is as unpredictable as sports themselves.
Meet the Guest Panel:
Graham: Born and raised in North Carolina, Graham grew up on Duke basketball in the heart of Tobacco Road before becoming a loyal Hokie at Virginia Tech. He follows U.S. sports closely but now finds his favorite weekends in the EPL, supporting Brighton and Hove Albion.
Liam: A proud Philadelphian and WVU grad, Liam is a die-hard Philly sports fan who grew up with the Phillies World Series run and the Eagles first Super Bowl win. A former lacrosse player, he is now tuned into the rapid rise of the PLL.
D-Mills: Richmond native Daniel “D-Mills” lives for live music, good conversation, and the balance found on the golf course, even if he calls himself very mediocre. With his mix of humor, curiosity, and passion for analytics, he always brings a new angle to the sports room.
