BTR Sports
BTR Sports with Sam, Kory and Kristy is a sports show focusing on more than just the results and clichés. Each week we take an in-depth look at a topic from the world of sport from a broader, cultural angle. This week for Social Week we talk even more about the World Cup and try once more to gauge its lasting impact in the US, as well as ask what the most “social” sport is out there.
