WSUM Sports members Vincent Hesprich and Luke Seruma find creative ways to talk about the biggest events in sports while also shining a spotlight on the intriguing and often unusual stories that quietly fill the sports world.

Shows air live Tuesdays at 5:00 PM CT on WSUM!

Why listen

After Further Review is a college-radio sports hangout with enough structure to keep it moving and enough chaos to feel alive. Vince Hesprich and Luke Seruma bounce between Wisconsin Badgers updates, NBA and NFL arguments, recurring games, strange sports-history detours, and personal campus grievances, so it works for listeners who like sports talk with jokes, bits, and a local Madison flavor. You do not need expert-level sports knowledge to enjoy it, but you will get more out of it if you like opinionated fan debates and niche college-sports side quests.
