Hall of Shame - What Happens in Vegas... (the Suzy Favor Hamilton story)

Rachel wants Rachna to talk about it! Like many people, Suzy Favor Hamilton spent much of her life grappling with mental illness. Unlike most people, Suzy ran track at three consecutive Olympics. Her disordered eating, anxiety, and bipolar disorder were only exacerbated by mistreatment at the hands of coaches and the stress of competitive running, but she suffered largely in silence. After her retirement from running, Suzy had two careers. One, like mental illness, society doesn’t like to talk about much...

What Happens in Vegas... (the Suzy Favor Hamilton story)

And I'm Rechana Frafon and this is Hall of Shame.

I feel like we're all always a little bit in a state of getting our bearings.

I feel like every time I ask somebody that question, their voice goes into that same

Well today, Rechana, before I get into the story today, I want to get real with you.

We've definitely, I think, safe to say, talked about our mental health.

And how we both see therapists, but I think today is a good day to dive into that a little

further because today's story has a lot to do with mental illness and mental health.

And we're all feeling some things right now as we were just talking about.

And I want to have a little bit of a discussion beforehand before we get into the story today

Fox Sports host and comic Rachel Bonnetta (“Lock It In”, “@Buzzer”) and comedy writer Rachna Fruchbom (“Fresh Off the Boat”, “Parks and Recreation”) are here to share their love for two things: sports and DRAMA. Sure, they obsessively root for Cleveland (the Browns and the Cavaliers, respectively), but they get even more excited by those crazy moments in sports that become almost legendary. We all know the sensationalistic scandals about cheating, gambling and sex, but Rachel and Rachna want to discover the humanity behind the headlines. That’s why they started Hall of Shame -- every week Rachel and Rachna will take each other through some of the biggest scandals in sports, from the thrill of Dock Ellis’ acid fueled no-hitter on acid to the agony of Rosie Ruiz’s fake Boston Marathon win. With humor and a healthy dose of perspective, they get to the bottom of what exactly went down, why these stories matter, and how they’re still relevant today. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll feel more invested in sports than you ever thought possible.
