‘Love & Basketball’ with Jordan Robinson
Episode 9
Four quarters, two players, one game for your heart. No movie in this sports-romance series creates team chemistry between the “sports” and “romance” genres quite like LOVE & BASKETBALL.
Podcaster, sports journalist, and former college hooper Jordan Robinson joins the program to discuss the movie’s on-court realism, athlete couples, the enormous pressures on college basketball players, and the LOVE & BASKETBALL character she finally feels bad for two decades later.
Listen to Jordan’s WNBA podcast, Queens of the Court, with basketball legend Sheryl Swoopes.
Read her 2020 remembrance of Love & Basketball, featuring countless great interviews.

Movie Reviews & Reappraisals
Be Reel is a movie reviewing & reappraising podcast hosted by Chance Solem-Pfeifer and Noah Ballard.
Each time out, we select three movies based around a genre and call up guests ranging from submarine captains to Oscar winners. Then, we rate the movies, weighing both technical quality and entertainment.
Noah and Chance are old friends who mostly respect each other’s opinions. Even though Chance is a fool and a traitor. Find their show presented at ThePlaylist.Net and follow them on Twitter for the latest on Noah’s literary agenting and Chance’s work in the Portland arts scene.
