Why Is Gillette Stadium in Foxborough?
About The Episode
It's almost Super Bowl Sunday, and the Patriots are in it to win it. We look at why the hometown stadium is actually out of town, in Foxborough, and the economics of that decision. Edgar talks with Christopher Price, Patriots beat reporter for the Boston Globe, and Victor’ Matheson, sports economist at Holy Cross.
GBH reporter Craig LeMoult brings us a primer on local athletes to watch at the Winter Games, and gets humbled in his attempt to learn how to speed skate at the Commonwealth Skating Club.
And our monthly Stargazer's Guide with astrophysicist Anjali Tripathi.
