Why Losing Hurts New Zealanders So Badly ft. Distracted Sports

I was joined by Tony O'Sullivan from the 'Two Cents Gets Distracted' podcast to get the Kiwi angle on the New Zealand All Black's defeat to the Springboks of South African in Rugby's Greatest Rivalry tour.

We dove into how the loss has affected the psyche of All Blacks fans back in New Zealand and what the ramifications might be. Tony doesn't hold back in sharing his pain!
