Understanding the Complexities of Sports Talk Radio
Sports talk radio is a popular format with millions of listeners, mostly men aged 25 to 54. While discussions primarily revolve around sports, topics related to masculinity and what it means to be a man frequently arise. The hosts and callers often talk about how to be an admirable guy in today's complicated times, and what not to do. The format allows men to explore these broader issues of masculinity and gender, sometimes discussing topics like domestic violence and social justice that they might not engage with in other settings.
