In this episode, we introduced two new Hosts.

Josh, a relatively chill dude with tons of experience in Audio Editing and creative endeavors as our new Chief Creative Officer, Josh is also super into cars and modding them, he's also part of the LGBTQ community.

 We also introduced Sai, who will be taking on our social media and outreach as time goes on, Sai is also our resident fight expert and sports buff.

In this episode, we discussed what should be a sport and why, as we dived in further we noted that most sports, especially in the last 10 years, have involved little to no physical stress. Hence, we introduced eSports as a so-called 'sport'.

We defined a sport as an activity that creates any level of mental or physical duress or effort for the reason of game or entertainment.

We also dived into Nascar, F1 Racing, Rally Car Driving, and other Motorsport to see if we could define that category as a true sport. We spoke a lot about this as it's important as the episode continues. We spoke a lot about the team and individual sports themselves and as a whole based on dynamics.

We then hit MMA, Wrestling and Boxing, compensation, and other things as well as Jake Paul and the revival of a sport, we then got into a heated discussion about Transgender Males fighting in female fights and how that needs to be corrected, and so forth.

We also spoke briefly about bum fights and we made our way into the NFL and the NBA as we discussed the player pay gap, the reasons why the WNBA is not as profitable for the NBA to demand this as of yet, We spoke about the Transgender NBA and how that type of league is developing and how over time it may be a reasonable ask.

We brought up Equestrian sports in that are they truly considered sports or they a game, which we defined as two different things and we did the same with Golf.

We want to emphasize this very clearly, at the OYOTF Podcast our team is completely supportive and seeks to ally the LGBTQIA+ Community as it keeps growing. We recognize that the very age of sports by tradition and as well as by gender and social norms allows us to seek a new way of looking at being human, but in sports, we recognize that gender is often looked at as being a one way street in some cases and you are classified to compete as the gender you are born as and not what you identify as. We at the OYOTF Podcast are committed to seeing a change over time and we recognize this.

We are all about Rainbow Pride and wish to do an episode in the future with some of you who have opinions on that.

Please follow us on Instagram @oyotfpodcast or find us on our discord server,OYOTF Rants.

We hope to see you on our server, but for now please enjoy this episode and comment if you liked it or if you have any other criticisms you'd like us to hear or suggestions you have about future episodes or would like to feature in one.

*So guys, during our six-week long break we decided to take more creative freedom in that now we needed to up the ante and remove our language barrier. We decided to allow cursing in moderation. In this episode, you will hear some beeps and some cursing so if you have a kid or are under the age of 15 we urge you to please listen with discretion.
