I like this podcast, and I really don't like sports!

Please read my review

I enjoy listening to Matt and Jonathan discuss history in the context of sports. I've learned a lot of great facts that are prefect little nuggets to drop in a conversation to make people believe I know something about sports. And I now have a whole appreciation for the Rocky movies! (I'm not going to watch them, but could at least discuss them with someone who does.)
