Summary

Dave Zirin of The Nation joins Howard Bryant and Kate Fagan on this episode of The Meadowlarkers. Howard, Kate and Dave take a good, hard look at the Super Bowl and what the event says about our society. They discuss the all women flyover and the message the NFL and military are trying to send, the exploitation of Pat Tillman, how Super Bowl advertising captures where our country is as a society, the raising of our collective entertainment quotient and the spectacle growing over the years, Damar Hamlin's near-death experience being spun into a win for the NFL, and much more.
