Miracle: Why We Wait a Lifetime for One | Sportuality Ep. 2

Liner notes

Can a basketball game be a religious miracle? After 53 years, the Knicks finally found out.

Gotham Chopra and Varun Soni are two true, irrational, diehard sports fans coming at the same question from opposite directions. Gotham is the filmmaker and Religion of Sports co-founder who has been in the room with the GOATs, from Kobe to Brady to Serena. Varun is the Dean of Religious Life at USC, one of the most spiritually diverse campuses on the planet. Where sports and spirituality collide, that is Sportuality.

In Episode 2, the Knicks have done the impossible: a championship after 53 years, sealed by a comeback from 29 points down that ESPN put at 1 in 237,000. Gotham and Varun break down the math behind the miracle, the David and Goliath story of a 6'2" Jalen Brunson against a 7'4" Victor Wembanyama, and the tip-in that decided it all. Then they get to the real question: is God actually picking favorites, or is the miracle just the joy of sticking around long enough to witness one? Lifelong Knicks fan Dave Birnbaum calls in to testify.
