Sports Without Borders: Global Sports Talk
Sports Without Borders
Welcome to Sports Without Borders, where passion meets perspective and sports know no boundaries.
Hosted by Karla Vazquez, a Gen Z sports journalist with a love for every sport under the sun, and Mark Mancini, a seasoned broadcasting pro with decades behind the mic, this podcast bridges generations, continents, and cultures — one game at a time.
Whether it’s football (both kinds), hoops, cricket, combat sports, or the headlines shaping the sports world, Kendal and Mark bring fresh takes, classic insights, and plenty of banter. They don’t always agree — and that’s half the fun.
