Defector’s own Maitreyi Anantharaman joins Drew and Roth to preview the WNBA season! Which team (other than the Fever) should we be excited about? Which team will be meh? What does it mean to “as soon as we can get planes in place?” But Maitreyi has other areas of expertise, including not dying at Detroit Tigers games and rooting for the Vancouver Canucks, so she’ll talk about that too. And as always, they dive into the Funbag, answering 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.
