So its been a minute! Like any proper lady I don't wanna justjump right into things, lets warm up a little. Get to know each other better, have an appetizer of sorts! In this episode we catch up a little but mostly tell the outrageous story of Burt Pugach and Linda Riss. They were the focus of the 2007 documentary Crazy Love directed by Dan Klores. Watching this documentary always annoyed me because everyone involved, even Linda herself made such light of the situation. I couldn't understand how she could love this man after what he did to her. But after really paying attention to the details and the words from Linda herself it sounds more like a story of a woman with no village. Linda died a prisoner and a warden. It is a wild story that is truly stranger than fiction, I wish I was making this one up.Thank you for the patience during the hiatus! More episodes to come, please stay tuned!!

“‘Basketball: A Love Story’ — directed by filmmaker Dan Klores, who made the 30 for 30 doc ‘Winning Time: Reggie Miller vs. the New York Knicks’ — has been structured in a way to make it consumable in manageable bites. Though [the series] is a mostly male-dominated affair, the parts that cover the women’s game are especially compelling because those stories aren’t told as frequently. Nancy Lieberman, a Basketball Hall of Famer and current assistant coach for the Sacramento Kings, talks about being told to “act like a girl” when she was growing up, and recalls how she ignored that advice, eventually playing as the only women on a men’s professional team in the United States Basketball League.” – Jen Chaney, Vulture.

Jackie MacMullan talks to Basketball: A Love Story's creator Dan Klores about the making of the film, his love for the game of basketball, some of their favorite stories from the project and much more.
It's CREEPTOBER and the pants-pissing fear keeps on truckin' in what might be the scariest CREEPTOBER documentary yet...if you're a Knicks fan like co-host/New Yorker Drew. Bob and Drew knock down another 30 for 30 in the humorous Dan Klores documentary "Winning Time: Reggie Miller vs. the New York Knicks". Humorous to Bob anyway. By the end of this episode Drew was in fetal position. Traumatized by those deep Reggie Miller threes. The frustrations of John Starks. The tears of Patrick Ewing. The cries of classic 90's Knick, Spike Lee. Drew might tell it differently, but he had to be held throughout this tale of early 90's basketball involving this contentious eastern rivalry. You wanted shock and fear in your favorite documentary themed podcast? Well you fucking got it. Keep on Doccin'®
