Brian Tran, writer, die hard Dodgers and Lakers fan and MFA candidate at Washington University in St. Louis, joins the first episode of Dear Adam Silver to discuss why we both love basketball, critique and analyze some of our favorite(and most famous)players and begin to break down our relationships with representation of athletes (this subject is too big for just one episode, more to come). This episode was produced by Eliseo Casiano, with music by Eliseo Casiano and Aaron Sumpter. Cover art made in collaboration with my grandmother, Edith Grossman.
