We're one week out from the Celebration Bowl in Atlanta, GA which will feature our local North Carolina Central Eagles, and on a national level, Deion Sanders and his Jackson State Tigers. Tolly Carr, host of HBCU Gameday joins the show to preview the big game and discuss the importance of what Sanders has done for HBCUs and the Jackson State program.
In this weekly series, Chris Lea (WRAL-TV) and Dennis Cox (99.9 The Fan) interview famed sports figures, entertainers and pop-culture icons about their love of and contributions to the North Carolina sports culture and the state's large, sometimes over-looked, impact on the national sports scene. Culture State instills pride in natives, residents and fans in what’s produced or influenced by our state, while also generating intriguing continuing fan conversations and water-cooler moment laughs.
