Show notes
This week, Kenneth begins by addressing Naomi Osaka’s pre-Roland Garros comments regarding talking to the media during the tournament (2:00; note: this was recorded prior to Osaka’s withdrawal 5/31). Andrew and Kenneth then discuss recent interactions between athletes and fans (9:20), wondering where the line is for fan behavior (14:20), what might be an underlying cause of these events (17:35), and how athletes are typically put in a no-win situation when this happens (18:20). The two then put it in park by recalling more positive events of their personal sports fandom history (24:21).For more information, go to linktr.ee/fiftyphopodcast
