Free Darko: An Interview With Bethlehem Shoals

On today’s episode of “Headphones Are Stethoscopes” I had the chance to chat with one of the authors from FreeDarko.com, a blog about basketball, but so much more than that. It’s about race relations, politics, the pursuit of the aesthetic, philosophy…

Here’s a quick recap of topics discussed:

- Michael Lewis’ Statistical Analysis
- Liberated Fandom
- NBA Stars (and Fake NBA Stars) on Social Networks

References include Milton Friedman, Pi, Facebook, One Hundred Years of Solitude, The River Wild, Jesus Shuttlesworth, William Carlos Williams, Polvo and the Macrophenomenal Pro Basketball Almanac (in stores now!).

If books aren’t you thing, go snag a t-shirt. Wear your art on your sleeve.
