On this week's filibuster, Jemele wraps up the first season of Spolitics by discussing the many ways in which sports + politics have proven to be important. Jemele is then joined by Donte Stallworth, the former NFL player who has made a name for himself as a political pundit. Donte shares how and why he got into covering politics, and his recollection of hurricane Katrina as someone who played for New Orleans Saints when the hurricane struck 20 years ago. He also discusses what he shares with other football prospects about the impact of his conviction for DUI manslaughter, and how that influenced his playing career.
