94 & More Podcast

Sports & Recreation Podcasts

A basketball court might be 94 feet long, but the game’s reach has undeniably transcended the lines of the hardwood and left its mark on art, culture, politics and so much more. On a personal note for us at Bristol Studio, basketball has been an ever-present force in our lives since we could walk; it has shaped who we are, how we think, and given us the gift of lifelong friendships. In this sense, 94 & More is a love-letter to the game that raised us, but also an exploration of what basketball means to people, its place in the world, and how it can be used as a force for good. On this podcast, we bring on guests from all professions – athletes, artists, academics, authors and more – who share our love and respect for the game of basketball. Together we will explore the ways in which basketball has come to shape our lives and in the process impact the greater culture at large.
