Basketball: Heart Over Height
from PODKAS Hosted by Podkas Team
From makeshift courts under bridges to the roaring arenas of the PBA, basketball is more than a game in the Philippines: it's a core part of the national identity. In this episode, we explore how an American import became the Filipino soul. Join us as we trace basketball's surprising history as a women's sport, the legendary rivalries that divided families, and the modern challenges facing the professional league. We uncover why "puso" resonates so deeply in basketball, and how the sport itself becomes a symbolic court where Filipinos play out their struggles, dreams, and never-say-die spirit.
