2 Dummies That Just Watch: A Sports Podcast Between Friends

Will Hernandez and LeeJay Parrilla
Tired of analytics dominating sports talk? Well, the 2 Dummies That Just Watch like to use their eyes to evaluate things and that's what we're mostly doing with this weekly sports podcast hosted by lifelong friends Will and LeeJay. Not only do we bring 35 years of friendship to the show, we've been watching sports for longer than that. In fact, Will used to be a sportswriter in a different life.Not only are we chatting about the New York City sports scene, we're also diving into the hot-button issues that are making headlines, offering unique takes from our true Brooklyn selves. And because life isn't just about sports, we sprinkle in plenty of laughs and lighthearted moments as we joke around about everyday life. From hilarious personal anecdotes to quirky debates, our off-the-cuff style means there are few dull moments.
