Drew has activated vacation mode so it is a no-guest streak on The Distraction. They start with ski talk and injury talk, and I promise these are unrelated stories. But Nike and Fanatics doing such a terrible job with baseball jerseys leads to a discussion the flattening, joylessless, and enshittification of so much of modern products. Then they give advice to 7th graders about how to make good podcasts and dive into the Funbag, with real questions from real listeners.
Do you want to hear your question answered on the pod? Well, give us a call at 909-726-3720. That is 909-PANERA-0!

About The Show
The Distraction is Defector's flagship podcast about sports (and movies, and art, and sandwiches, and certain coastal states) from longtime writers Drew Magary and David Roth. Every week, Drew and Roth tackle subjects, both serious and impossibly stupid, with a parade of guests from around the world of sports and media joining in the fun! Roth and Drew also field Funbag questions from Defector readers, answer listener voicemails, and get upset about the number of people who use speakerphone while in a public bathroom stall. This is a show where everything matters, because everyone could use a Distraction. Head to defector.com for more info.
