Bad at Sports
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Bad at Sports" is a podcast about art and culture in Chicago. It is currently the only surviving program about the Chicago Art Scene. Previous publications included the New Art Examiner, and the PBS program Art Chicago, but both may be defunct due to the fact that although Chicago is a large city with a robust art scene, it may still be too niche an audience for mainstream broadcast channels. However, as an Internet broadcast, it has been grown a large audience and has been downloaded over 30,000 times. Hosted by Richard Holland, Duncan MacKenzie and Amanda Browder, it provides a ground-level view of the visual arts from the perspective of three emerging artists.
