The episode features Coche and Patrick Ferrucci, associate professor and associate chair for Graduate Studies in the Department of Journalism at University of Colorado Boulder, discussing the role of sports journalism in shaping social interpretations of gender, place, and the meanings of winning, losing, and leaving it all on the field.
