Bonus Episode: Corona DELUXE

Back at it from the safety of our homes with more from the ushers! On this episode of Grandstand we’re joined by our political correspondent, Dan One Time Tex, coming down from space and dropping in on us live from Geneva, Switzerland; and from Chiraq, Illinois, Grandstand’s very own artist, lover and preservationist of the human experience, Skitch Bourbon comes in with sirens blazing. We discuss the current pandemic’s implications on interaction, surveillance, and our willingness to reimagine what it means to spectate the sporting spectacle. Perhaps we’re realizing what Michel Foucault meant when he said “Our society is not one of spectacle, but of surveillance” and maybe Chi-Town legends Skitch and Harry Caray can help us understand that. So grab your toilet paper and wipe up for another quarantined episode from the Grandstand!
