You Don't Need Credentials to Care
Fans Without Credentials is a Michigan-focused sports podcast built for casual fans who love their teams but don’t pretend to be experts. Hosted by two proudly unqualified, non-athletic fans, the show pokes elitist gatekeeping, overcooked analytics culture, and anyone who thinks fandom requires credentials.
The Aim
To create a Michigan sports podcast where casual fans feel welcome, elitist gatekeeping is mocked, and nobody has to lie about having played at a high level.
Talent(ish)
