Episode 3: The Truth About College Sport

In this episode, we have the great and highly unlikely pleasure of speaking to Michael Hsu, a Regent at the University of Minnesota since 2015 representing Congressional District 6. As a leader in higher education, he is one of only three Regents in the United States to publicly speak out against the system of compensation in college sport, including in a column he published on Deadspin. This wide-ranging interview delves into labor activism in college sport, recent NIL developments, the surveillance of athletes and faculty, and the unsustainability of football as a cultural practice, among many other subjects.
