## Resource

Writer and director Larry J. Sanders joins the show to discuss his upcoming documentary, Shockwave , which explores the legacy of the three-time champion Detroit Shock. We dig into why one of the WNBA's most dominant early dynasties seemed to abruptly vanish from the city — and why their story deserves way more credit in league history. Plus, with a new WNBA franchise set to arrive in Detroit in 2029, we break down what it takes to honor the past while building the future of local sports.
