Burning Thoughts: Nicole Noren leaves ESPN over their embrace of sports gambling
Our patrons voted and said they wanted us to talk about Nicole Noren, a veteran sports producer and investigative journalist, leaving ESPN because of the company’s embrace of sports betting. Noren talked to recent BIAD guest, Danny Funt, about her decision to leave ESPN: "It was very troubling for me to see the normalization of betting and ESPN’s complete acceptance of that, and finally, they just decided to go all in. It worried me. I knew what gambling addiction could do to families." In this Burning Thoughts, Shireen and Jessica talk about Nicole's decision (solidarity!!!), the industry's reliance on sports gambling money, and where this is all headed. Link: "‘I’m Not Going to Have Blood on My Hands’: Why Nicole Noren, a decorated ESPN producer, quit in protest."

In what's becoming a Burn It All Down tradition, we take a look around the packed fall sports landscape. This time, Lindsay, Brenda, and Shireen share a couple storylines they're following.

Of course, there's plenty to Burn, and they also celebrate a fresh slate of Torchbearers. Thank you, again, to our Executive Producers for today’s episode, Youree and Emily McBride!

Burning Thoughts: Amina Seck and Abolish ICE
Our patrons voted and said they wanted to hear us talk about Kentucky State basketballer, Aminata "Amina" Seck, who was recently released from ICE's custody after spending two months imprisoned by them. Seck is a graduate student, from Senegal, and plays center on the team. She was with her team on the way to a game in New York when ICE thugs arrested her. Seck is not the only international collegiate basketball that ICE has picked up. Mississippi Valley State's Qingfang Pang, who is from China, has been in custody since September 29. In this Burning Thoughts, Lindsay and Jessica discuss these cases, why this is all so infuriating, asks where the universities and the NCAA are, and Jessica tells a story of soccer fans in Austin trying to do something about this in their community.

Ep. 276: The death of sports?
With Ted Cruz featured on College GameDay, multiple universities sending teams abroad, and designer brands popping up on campus for football games, Jessica, Amira, and Lindsay are left asking: is this the death of sports? Amira takes us through the history of how big money entered college sports, and the hosts also discuss the influence of private equity in pro and youth sports. They take a closer look at the so-called "Protect College Sports Act." Meanwhile, a familiar name returns to the Burn Pile. And there's lots to celebrate from the US Open.

Ep. 275: All bets are off: How sports gambling has conquered the world
Amira, Brenda, and Lindsay review how sports betting has seeped into politics and provided the stuff of fantasies for people in dire economic need. Women represent the final frontier for exploitative betting companies, and BIAD asks how we can save women’s sports from such scourge. The hosts consider ways to regulate the industry in order to save sports. They also have plenty to burn (looking at you, Sophie Cunningham) and honor the torchbearers giving them hope.

Hello, Flamethrowers! Here’s a preview of Lindsay's interview from WNBA All-Star Weekend with 3-time WNBA Champion and WNBPA vice president Alysha Clark.

Alysha and Lindsay spoke about her unique career journey, what her expectations were going into this CBA fight, what she’s most proud about and how this all connects to the bigger picture for women in the workplace.
