Sports Criminals

This week for the Spotcast Sunday feature, I am reviewing the sport true crime podcast, Sports Criminals. This show debuted in August 2019 and stopped updating in November 2020. There are 83 episodes to listen to on Spotify. The following overview is provided from the Spotify podcast page: They’re sport’s greatest heroes…displaying superhuman-like abilities to overcome intense pressure. But when it comes to the downfalls of fame, money, and ego—they’re far more human than super. Every Thursday, Parcast’s original series Sports Criminals keeps score on the darker side of sports. Each episode chronicles the meteoric rise and fall of some of the sports world’s biggest names. Sports Criminals is a Spotify original from Parcast.

Loved this podcast. The format was fantastic for making each story easy to follow and understand. I knew some of the stories but not all the details provided in the podcast. The stories/scandals I didn’t know about made me understand some of the more modern rules on player behavior and ethics that we hold them to. My only complaint is that I wish that there were more episodes to consume. This podcast is for anyone who is a sports fan and even more so for those who love sports and true crime.

I give this podcast 4 out of 5 stars.

Tomorrow for the Movie Monday feature, I am reviewing the comedic drama, Moxie. Next week for the Spotcast Sunday feature, I am reviewing the literature podcast, Comadres con Libros. Until then keep listening on; Nerd out!
