In this episode, my dad and I recall some of our favorite memories as sports fans.

If you’re a sports fan yourself, that’s great, but even if you’re not, I think you’ll benefit from listening to this one, as many English idioms and other vocabulary were born out of the world of sports.

Otherwise, listening to this episode should give you a sense of what being a sports fan in America is like, because it’s unique compared to sporting culture in most other countries.
