Why Sports Matter: More Than Just a Game

  • Summary

  • Sports aren’t just for entertainment—they shape culture, community, and even mental health. In this episode, we explore how physical activity does more than boost endorphins; it can heal the brain, alleviate depression, and build resilience. From the scholar-athlete ideal to the unifying power of cheering for a team, sports offer benefits beyond the playing field.

    But when did sports become a battleground for politics? We break down how powerful figures have co-opted sports for their own agendas, from Nazi propaganda to modern-day controversies. Join us for a deep dive into why sports continue to captivate, inspire, and divide us.
