The Fandom ShowThe Fandom Show31: Sneakers (With Yaw Attuah)This week we’re talking to comedian and collector, Yaw Attuah (he/him) about the wearable artform (that some collectors don’t wear); Sneakers! We learn about the sneaker basics like silhouettes and colourways, the major manufacturers and designers, and the difference between a ‘sneakerhead’ and a ‘hypebeast’. We get into the nostalgia that drives sneaker culture, the massive microeconomy behind flipping kicks, how many shoes does the ‘average’ sneakerhead have, and what it means to search for your ‘Grail’. Plus some insight into what it means to wear Yeezys and whether you can enjoy the shoe without supporting his views.  ...2023-02-071h 15The RapcastThe Rapcast#1559 - Heartfelt Homecomings (with Leonard Chan & Yaw Attuah) - Buckets & Tea NBA ShowThis week on Buckets & Tea, host Cathryn Naiker chats with comedians Leonard Chan and Yaw Attuah about:Winning your fantasy basketball league - how much is too much emotional investment in your players?Adam Silver's recent comments about star players skipping games - what changes will we see down the line, if any?The NBA not moving next year's All-Star Weekend out of Utah despite anti LGBTQ+ legislation, the opposite of their response in 2017 when the All-Star Game was moved out of Charlotte.The current playoff picture, featuring a rant by Yaw against a certain MVP candidate.2022-04-081h 05Confederacy of Dunks Basketball Podcast (Archive)Confederacy of Dunks Basketball Podcast (Archive)Episode 9.240: Darren Menezes & Yaw AttuahBig news for the pod!
