Sports Without Borders: an All Sports Podcast
Sports Without Borders
Welcome to Sports Without Borders, where passion meets perspective and sports know no boundaries.
Hosted by Alexxa Riley, a Gen Z college student 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, Alexxa and Mark bring fresh takes, classic insights, and plenty of banter. They don’t always agree — and that’s half the fun.
