Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
He was the quintessential sportswriter. For almost 75 years, Shirley Povich wrote a daily column that mixed sports with sociology and statistics with historical insight, and kept Washington Post’s readers absorbed. We look back at his career, and the influence he had on sports as a whole.
