The Wilson roundtable show with Stafford Slick, the McKibbin Brothers, and Tri Bourne

The idea for this episode of SANDCAST: Beach volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter came, as most do, on a whim.

Tri had been talking to Wilson, our main sponsor of the show and who also sponsors some of the most talented athletes on the AVP. Wilson wanted to know if we could do a roundtable of sorts: All seven Wilson athletes – Tri Bourne, Stafford Slick, Riley McKibbin, Madison McKibbin, Casey Patterson, Kelly Reeves, Sarah Sponcil, Irene Pollock – on a single podcast. Adding in my voice as a host of the show, making it eight in total, seemed crowded. A good idea, but a noisy one.

We decided to cut the number down to four – five, including me, the moderator – and have a debate-style show, not unlike ESPN’s Around the Horn. You’ll have to let us know what you think.

We cover 15 topics, including, but obviously not limited to:

  • Why Stafford Slick, king of the NORCECA tour, thinks Wilson makes the best volleyball
  • Does Ron Von Hagen belong on beach volleyball’s Mount Rushmore?
  • Is the Last Dance the best sports documentary ever?
  • Is Tim Bomgren the best player yet to win an AVP?
  • Why Riley McKibbin thinks there should be a substitution rule in beach volleyball

Let us know what you think. As we mentioned, it’s an experiment, and we have no idea if it was a mess, fun to listen to, or somewhere in between.

SHOOTS!
