Will answers some of Green and Gold's listeners questions about the show, UAB football, and college football in general.

FAQ/Q&A

In part two of our look at college athletics as a whole, we look at a couple of case studies of schools UAB might be able to emulate as it continues to grow its football brand.

Chapter Eight: Sense

We take a look inside the world of collegiate athletic fundraising to try and better understand UAB's situation. Part one of two.

Chapter Seven: Dollars

UAB is in crisis, and the students and faculty aren't happy about it. The basketball team provides something to cheer for, but it's what the fans are chanting that's really getting everyone's attention.

Chapter Six: Fire Ray Watts!

Green and Gold talks to Chuck Dietzen, who is a man that wears many hats. He is a doctor, a professor, a pro wrestler, a global health advocate, and most importantly for our purposes, a former UAB Blazer.http://timmyglobalhealth.org/

In the immediate aftermath of UAB cancelling football, tension around the school mounts and emotions are wrecked, while more than 100 players and coaches scramble to figure out their futures.

Chapter Five: Fallout

UAB becomes bowl eligible, but it isn't enough to save the program. All the speculation about the program comes true on UAB's darkest day, when the dream season suddenly turns into a nightmare.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYsOFBJHfUgMusicSong: I DunnoArtist: Grapes

Chapter One: Context

"Green and Gold" tells the story of the UAB football program, from when it began in the late 80's, all the way up until it was cancelled in 2014 and beyond. Will Shingleton hosts.

It was on every channel and radio station  in Birmingham when UAB football went away. Will takes listeners through the fragile beginnings, shutdown, and return of UAB football. Definitely worth a listen to know what really happened. #FIRERAYWATTS isn’t the whole story!

In-depth history lesson of UAB Football

Glad someone took the time to bring up this subject in a media format. Absolutely fantastic!

Michael Sandel explores the philosophical justifications made for national borders. Using a pioneering state-of-the-art studio at the Harvard Business School, Professor Sandel is joined by 60 participants from over 30 countries in a truly global digital space. Is there any moral distinction between a political refugee and an economic migrant? If people have the right to exit a country, why not a right to enter? Do nations have the right to protect the affluence of their citizens? And is there such a thing as a 'national identity'? These are just some of the questions addressed by Professor Sandel in this first edition of The Global Philosopher.Audience producer: Louise ColettaProducer: David EdmondsEditor: Richard Knight(Image taken by Rose Lincoln)
