The World Of Sports Photography (PST Show #316)

Nothing captures a moment in time like a photo. We've seen iconic images of the Super Bowl trophy being raised in Philly in recent years. We've seen a quick and violent slap shot from Claude Giroux head straight past a goalie and into the net. These moments in time are priceless. So this week, we talked to our friend of the pod, Kate Frese, credentialed Flyers/NHL/AHL and photojournalist for The Athletic, about the world of sports photography and what has been happening with the industry.But first, we got into some listener feedback and discussed Donovan McNabb's claim that he should be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. (3:45)From there we responded to listener email about the pitching and batting performance that Rick Wise gave Phillies fans in 1971. (10:45)We then dove into what Andrew McCutchen's injury means for the Phillies moving forward. How will Jay Bruce, Adam Haseley, and even Roman Quinn help keep the Phils momentum moving forward? (13:00)After the Flyers made a deal with the Jets to acquire the rights to Kevin Hayes, we certainly needed to discuss what this first offseason step means to this team. (21:15)This week on the Highbrow Segment, we discussed what a 2021 NFL lockout would look like and mean to the football world. (25:30)Then on the Lowbrow Segment, we talked about why hot takes suck. (32:40)What we're throwing down on the Table this week is an in-depth interview with sports photographer Kate Frese who has been giving us Flyers and Phantoms fans countless and amazing looking images on yearly basis. We talked about photo piracy and what can/cannot be done to prevent it. We also discussed how fans' attitudes change, and how she's treated overall as a woman based on how well or terrible the Flyers are doing. How does she get a fantastic and one-of-a-kind shot when the game on the ice is so fast paced? All of this and much more talk about sports photography with Kate this week! (39:50)
