Episode 1 • Sep 09, 2019
The Culture
College football is more than just a sport -- it's a cultural phenomenon. To understand the game, you have to understand how much everything around it matters, too -- from the team colors to the uniforms to the bands, the mascots and more.
Episode 2 • Sep 16, 2019
Evolution of the Game
Innovations in the game of college football include better equipment, evolving offensive strategies, defenses trying to keep step with the offensive mindset, strategies of physical conditioning, nutrition and injury recovery.
Episode 3 • Sep 23, 2019
Integration
Integration in college football, though slow in its infusion through the '60s and '70s, not only changed the game itself in many ways, more importantly, it allowed many of the game's biggest stars to emerge.
Episode 4 • Oct 07, 2019
Recruiting
As far back as the 1880's coaches figured out they needed the best players in order to win games. From the "ringers" of the early days to the 24/7, day to day grind of the 21st century, recruiting is essential to the college game.
Episode 5 • Oct 14, 2019
Television
The role of television in the growth of college football cannot be underestimated. From hand-held cameras to instant replay to ESPN and voices like Keith Jackson, all played a role in taking the game from a regional to a national game.
Episode 6 • Oct 21, 2019
Notre Dame
Love them or hate them, Notre Dame set the gold standard for college football in the 1920's, and they remain relevant today because college football fans want them either to win or lose, there's no in between with the Fighting Irish.
Episode 7 • Oct 28, 2019
Rivalries
Some of the greatest rivalries in college football are highlighted: Harvard-Yale, Lehigh-Lafayette, Auburn-Alabama, Ohio State-Michigan, USC-UCLA, Florida-Florida State, Iowa-Iowa State, Army-Navy, Texas-Oklahoma, Southern-Grambling
Episode 8 • Nov 04, 2019
Games of the Century
What defines a "Game of the Century"? What are the necessary criteria? Some of the games highlighted are 1935 Notre Dame-Ohio State, 1966 Notre Dame-Michigan State, and 2006 USC-Texas.
Episode 9 • Nov 11, 2019
Bowls, Polls and Champions
Determining the best college football team each season has always been a controversial discussion. Bowl games and the various polls have played major roles over the decades, and today it has evolved into the College Football Playoff.
Episode 10 • Nov 18, 2019
College Vs Pro
College football and professional football have not always co-existed peacefully. The college game was the country's introduction to the game, so when pro football came along, it was first viewed as not only inferior but as intrusive.
Episode 11 • Dec 11, 2019
The Heisman
The Heisman Trophy, named for famed college football coach, John Heisman, was first awarded in 1935. The coveted award, revered in the world of sports, is given to the most "outstanding player in college football" annually.

Around the globe, poor women of all ages turn to prostitution in order to survive.

In Argentina, after years of oppression, two women and a transgender person bind together to reverse the persistent discrimination against street prostitutes. Over four years and against all odds, they build a strong sense of community, discover unforeseen abilities, and opportunities for a better future. This is their story.
