ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
The only podcast to proudly originate from the basement of sports bloggers, The Big Weekend explores the stories other websites deem too silly to cover. And some serious ones as well. A rotating cast of writers from The Big Lead bring their aversion to needless hot takes and willingness to laugh every Monday and Thursday. A major name from the world of sports media may pop their head in every once in awhile to talk about the industry or to simply have their time wasted with arbitrary lists and general nonsense.
