This series has so far focused on the bright spots, the moments that Jewish athletes and storylines have made us proud. But not all stories about Jews in sports are the ones we want splashed in the headlines. On this episode, we confront an uncomfortable subject: Jewish team owners behaving badly. We explore the concept of shondas, and how we feel as Jews when high profile Members of the Tribe embarrass us or bring us shame. .Episode 5 features interviews with Dave McKenna, the former Washington City Paper journalist who went up against Dan Snyder, ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne, who has reported extensively about Don Sterling’s missteps, sports biographer Jane Leavy, reporter Dave Zirin, and baseball writer Jake Mintz.Previous episodes:The Halftime ShowEp. 4: Jewish Sports Nerds and Their Path to the Promised LandEp. 3: Forty Years in the Desert: Jews and the New York MetsEp. 2: Reevaluating ‘Jewish Jordan’ Tamir GoodmanEp. 1: Genesis: Sandy Koufax as Model MinoritySubscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
