    This week, we introduce you to Corey (who you may know better by his Twitter handle, @MoronFunctional). Who is Corey? Corey is a man who moved to Minnesota a number of years ago, & during that time, he's been somewhat of a free agent in terms of his fandom. Before the start of the 2021-2022 season however, he announced to the Twitter world that he was going to make a very strange leap: to go all in & become a fan of the Minnesota Timberwolves. Two obvious questions arise from this decision: 1. Why on earth would you make such a decision? 2. How has this experience been for you thus far? This podcast hopefully answers those questions.
