Jody has a new podcast series! It’s called “Good Sport” and all this week we’re featuring episodes. Be sure to find it wherever you get your podcasts.
Today, we discuss how the deals for new sports stadiums tend to reflect larger political and economic systems.
Sign up for our newsletter! We’ll be sending out links to all the stuff we recommended later this week.
