About This Podcast

Misery loves company, and there's a sports podcast for that. Join sportswriter Laura Albanese and avid fan Cole Critchell as they break down and recap the latest in sports, with a ton of movie references thrown in, and just the right amount of anguish. Often wrong and barely right, it's about the frenemies and fun you had along the way. (We're all having fun, right??)
