Summary

Jessica, Amira and Lindsay start the show with musings on the NFL draft. Then they dive head first into new technologies in sport: from WTF are NFTs to wearable stat trackers from DarkHorse (maybe) closing recruitment gaps to Metrica Sports' making cutting edge analytics more accessible to women's sport. They wade through the tech gobbledygook to discuss the good, bad and confusing of these new technologies. Next, they burn the awful things in sport of the week. Then they celebrate the Torchbearers bringing light, including Deepika Kumari who won team and recurve individual gold medals at the Guatamala Archery World Championship representing India. Following that, they tease this week's interview with wrestling critic Scarlett Harris, share what's good in their lives and what they're watching in sports this week. And lastly, Amira announces their new merch shop on Bonfire: bonfire.com/store/burn-it-all-down/ This episode was produced by Tressa Versteeg.
