  • The Goalie Who Disappeared

    The Goalie Who Disappeared
    May 1 2025
    Jerce Reyes Barrios was a pro soccer player in Venezuela — an underdog living a sports-movie dream. Then he became an immigrant to Trump's America: The administration accused Jerce of being a gang member. ICE flew him to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. And his family hasn't spoken to him since. All of this... for a tattoo about his favorite football club. Paola Ramos reports on how Jerce escaped one dictator, only to be trapped by another, thanks to the very collapse of American democracy itself. • Read Paola Ramos' book, "Defectors: The Rise of the Latino Far Right and What It Means for America" https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/741645/defectors-by-paola-ramos/ Learn more about your ad choices.

    The Sporting Class: Welcome to Football Coachella
    Apr 29 2025
    The NFL Draft is such a tediously fascinating test of power that it's near impossible to turn off. John Skipper and David Samson help Pablo find the entertainment magic in the gathering — and examine the collusion theory of Shedeur Sanders' fall (especially now that the White House is taking credit for stopping it). Plus: the case for a neutral-site World Series, table integrity, kowtowing, apricity, Sweet on the Road... and OnlyGoys.

  • Fowl Shots: We Investigated an NBA Conspiracy

    Fowl Shots: We Investigated an NBA Conspiracy
    Apr 24 2025
    The most brilliant promotion in sports seems simple: If a visiting NBA player misses two straight free throws in the fourth quarter, every fan in the arena gets free chicken. But the untold story of Brickin' for Chicken is a tale of psychology, philanthropy and unintended consequences — and nobody wants to admit the truth. So we teamed up with Oddball's Amin Elhassan to reveal hidden evidence, pointing to a new theory about this quid-pro-bird. And then we (literally) chased down The Robin Hood of Wings: no less than Giannis Antetokounmpo himself. • Subscribe to Oddball with Amin Elhassan and Izzy Gutierrez https://www.youtube.com/@OddballHoops • Subscribe to Thanalysis https://thanalysis.podbean.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

    This (Independent) Senator Has a Warning. Who Will Listen?
    Apr 22 2025
    Angus King, the U.S. Senator from Maine (and former quarterback), is neither a Democrat nor a Republican. So we should listen very closely as he takes PTFO inside what he deems an unprecedented constitutional crisis — from tariffs and mass deportations to trans athletes and DOGE — by way of the ancient Romans, a vegetable slicer and Bill Belichick. And he explains exactly why his colleagues in Congress must stop handing their power to Donald Trump... before it's too late. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • The Great Once

    The Great Once
    Apr 17 2025
    As history was made this month, The Great One sat in a luxury box with the NHL commissioner and... the conspiracy-theorist director of the FBI. Has Wayne Gretzky become a political Mr. Magoo? Or legitimate friends with an American president who's trying to make the GOAT’s homeland his 51st state? Bruce Arthur, the Toronto Star columnist and conscience of Canada, says our neighbors are "incandescently angry.” And we investigate the world of Kash Patel and the Congressional Hockey Caucus. Further reading: Alex Ovechkin breaks Wayne Gretzky's unbreakable record, but his greatness is only part of the story https://www.thestar.com/sports/nhl/alex-ovechkin-breaks-wayne-gretzkys-unbreakable-record-but-his-greatness-is-only-part-of-the/article_aadfb162-f387-4289-b144-ebe18e4c3002.html Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Jaw & Order: The Case of the Stolen Dinosaur Bones (and Nicolas Cage)

    Jaw & Order: The Case of the Stolen Dinosaur Bones (and Nicolas Cage)
    Apr 15 2025
    How did a federal prosecutor named Martin Bell end up suing a 70-million-year-old tyrannosaurus, looted from the rocky sands of the Gobi Desert? By teaming up with The Babe Ruth of Forfeiture and a personal injury lawyer representing the president of Mongolia, naturally. What followed was a matter of international diplomacy and Florida men — of a narc at the museum and a conspicuous crate, all leading to Pablo's high school, The Graveyard of the Oviraptor... and, of course, Nicolas Cage.
