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.

Drew and Roth are chopping it up without a guest, so it’s a hearty stuff of whatever is on their minds right now: the SF real estate market, stories about LA, and inside jokes about their marriages.

The Athletic’s Alex Lewis joins Drew and Roth! The first half they wrestle with the rational idea that trading back for more picks is the best draft strategy. What percent crazy are you for wanting your team to trade up for the first draft picks or is it just human nature? In the second half, they apply that theory to practice by discussing what teams are going to trade up, trade back, or stay at the top of the 2024 draft. And as always, they dive into the Funbag, answering real questions from real listeners.

We’re giving you the classics on this two-man episode: leading off with Drew vomiting and how weird are the fans of the teams in the college football finals. Then our favorite football guys are truly being their best self at the turn of the year: Dan Campbell going for two many times in a row, the Broncos performing publicly ridiculous management malpractice, and the Jets committed to circling the drain with the exact same cast this year as last year.

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.
