Episode 8 - Mike Rutherford: Sports As Community & Identity




Eight More Miles - The Louisville Metro District 8 Podcast  show

Summary: Louisville sports is more than just a game; it's an identity, and one that's embedded into Louisville residents from a very young age. Councilman Coan sits down with sports journalist Mike Rutherford, a Louisville native and law school dropout who started Louisville sports blog Card Chronicle, now owned by SB Nation and Vox Media. Together, they talk about the potential of sports - and endeavors like the new Louisville FC stadium - to both build community within our city, as well elevate the status of Kentucky in the eyes of the rest of the world.
