Episode 163: Gaza and Global Sport

We are finally back! After a very long hiatus, the podcast returns with a lengthy recap from Derek and Nathan of some of what has transpired since we last recorded in the United State and Canada, but with a particular emphasis on the ongoing genocidal atrocities in Gaza, with a focus on the so-called aid sites.Then, Nathan has the pleasure of welcoming Irish Sport for Palestine leader and former Ireland basketball captain Rebecca O'Keeffe on for a discussion of global athlete responsibilities in the face of the genocide. Rebecca talks us through the efforts in Ireland to boycott basketball games against Israel, while Nathan raises the possibility of similar protests in relation to Canada's upcoming Davis Cup tennis match against Israel in Halifax.
