Welcome to 'The Season'

The Season | Sep 10, 2015

The Season is a new weekly podcast from WNYC that will follow Columbia University's football team, the Lions, over their ten-game season.

It's been two years since the Lions had a win. That’s a 21-game losing streak.

But this fall, hopes are high, because Columbia has a new head coach, Al Bagnoli, who is legendary for leading winning teams.

Winning, losing, and what it takes to change the score. This isn’t just a story about football. It’s about what it takes to turn around something that’s been stuck for ages.

Starting September 17, it’s The Season.
