March Madness is in full effect, and the discussion is heavy into hoops on this episode of Let's Talk! First, George Washington's head coach Rick Greene jumps on for a quick interview talking about this year's AAAA state championship team. Then, guest Justin Phillips, Sr., a writer for Black By God: The West Virginian, joins the crew to continue the talk on hoops. WV high school hoops? Looking good. College hoops? Looking good, but maybe with some caveats? The NBA? Just might be the biggest flop in professional sports... How do you fix it?

Let's Talk! With hosts Carl Lee, Lisa Otey, and Hollis Lewis. 

Tune in on Tuesdays and Thursdays for new episodes of Let's Talk with Carl Lee, a space where the lines between the game, the culture around it, and the society we live in are all part of the same essential conversation. Hosted by former NFL All-Pro Carl Lee, this podcast moves beyond simple sports commentary. Alongside co-hosts Lisa Otey and Hollis Lewis, Carl facilitates a dialogue that is as insightful as it is direct, drawing from his own experiences to examine leadership, personal growth, and the broader social issues often reflected in the world of athletics. You'll hear discussions that are grounded in real perspective, where a debate about a team's strategy might naturally lead to a deeper exploration of community influence or educational values. For a different kind of weekly engagement, the conversation also airs every Sunday afternoon at 1:06 PM on 580 WCHS. This isn't just analysis; it's a thoughtful, unfiltered look at how sports and culture continuously shape our lives, making each episode a unique blend of reflection and candid talk.
