Summary

On this week’s show, the entire Burn It All Down crew is together again. Amira, Lindsay, Shireen, Brenda, and Jessica first discuss the NFL’s new anthem policy and the NBA’s reaction to Sterling Brown being tased by a group of Milwaukee police officers for a parking violation. Then we get in our feelings about the men's Champions League final. Finally, we discuss last week’s congressional hearing in D.C. about the decades-long problem of sexual abuse in US Olympic sports.
