Episode 1: Sports Fandom, Arena Tours, and the Philadelphia Flyers with Kristin Riviello

Welcome to the inaugural episode of Culture Coven! To kick off the very first episode, host Leah Jones introduces herself and shares the journey that inspired this new show—from her roots co-hosting She Will Rock You and The Struts Life to creating a dedicated space that honors the special spark of being an unapologetic fan. Then, we dive headfirst into our very first fandom topic: sports, specifically hockey! Leah is joined by her friend Kristin Riviello, the ultimate Philadelphia Flyers fangirl. Kristin is on an epic mission to attend an away Flyers game at every single NHL stadium. Tune in as they discuss: How Kristin's incredible arena-touring journey is going so far. The thrill (and stress!) of the Flyers making the playoffs for the first time in a long time. Everyone's favorite orange menace, Gritty! What it's truly like navigating sports culture through the lens of passionate fandom. Whether you have "no chill" when it comes to your favorite sports team or you're just here for the community, this episode is for you.
