"Breaking In with Kevin Fishbain" Episode 8 Guest: @mirinfader.bsky.social Learn how the author of “Giannis” and “Dream” got her start in sports media

On the last chapter Mirin Fader’s Olajuwon Biography Dream and it’s an incredible read if you are a Rockets fan or just a fan of the NBA in general.

My favorite thing I've read this year, Mirin is the 🐐

In case you wanted to learn more about Hakeem Olajuwon, I recently wrote a book on him 🙏🏼: bookshop.org/p/books/drea...

We got a special pod for the Ball-Knowers today. Joining us is @mirinfader.bsky.social of @theringer.com.web.brid.gy to break down the art of writing a feature, stories from Lithuania covering the Ball family and the evolution of women's sports coverage.

Giannis has the most incredible story. This book by @mirinfader.bsky.social made me obsessed with the guy mirinfader.com/book/

Congrats, @courtmcox.bsky.social! Everyone go support this incredible book and wonderful author 💜: www.press.uillinois.edu/books/?id=p0...

Always great. Love that the post-LeBron Cavs are very much back.

Kenny Atkinson has long been my fav coach in the NBA. He seems incredible at team building and creating the right energy for NBA players to maximize their ceilings. Brooklyn dropping him and Jarrett Allen were major moments when I quit caring about the Nets’ potential to mean anything in BK.

“It’s like a brotherhood, like a grown-man AAU team type of vibe." I profiled Darius Garland and the Cavs' journey into the postseason for The Ringer. A story about leadership, resilience, transformation, and TEAM: www.theringer.com/2025/04/23/n...

When @chadfinn.bsky.social visited in October for our event with him and @mirinfader.bsky.social, he had a request to personalize his book with predictions for Boston's 2024-2025 season. As you can see in the picture, he predicted the C's would go 61-21. And guess what? The C's went 61-21!!!!!!!

As Hakeem Olajuwon is interviewed on ESPN, please buy & read the book “Dream” by @mirinfader.bsky.social about his inspirational life and career

If you want to learn more about University of Houston’s GOAT Hakeem Olajuwon, I recently wrote a book about him— and covered those early UH Final Four teams: bookshop.org/p/books/drea...

Fantastic article and this is one of the quotes that'll stick with me for a while...Go Bruins.

I’m currently reading DREAM by @mirinfader.bsky.social and watching old tape of Hakeem, realizing that he’s one of the most unique / impossible-to-replicate players ever.

🚨NEW @mirinfader.bsky.social ALERT 🚨

Very, very excited for my lunchtime reading from the wonderful @mirinfader.bsky.social www.theringer.com/2025/02/27/n...

"You don’t have to allow what people think of you or what is creeping through your mind to control who you really are." I profiled Cade Cunningham @ringernba.bsky.social A story about all he has endured, and the joy and wisdom he has gained through it all: www.theringer.com/2025/02/27/n...

New On the Bleachers! @zanopticon.bsky.social & I revive Baseball Pants Watch & retire Witchcraft Watch; Traylor happy being losers together; 4 Nation hockey/boxing match; & we talk to @theringer.com.web.brid.gy's @mirinfader.bsky.social ! 🔶Apple Podcasts: bit.ly/4igqb13 🔶Spotify: bit.ly/4gTVGNd

"I fought through a tough time in college where I was hurt. I was a backup. I got to the NFL, I had to wait my turn." Eagles inside linebacker Zack Baun’s sudden stardom is a lesson in patience. My newest story at The Ringer about waiting, working, adapting: theringer.com/2025/02/05/n...

Reading the Giannis biography by @mirinfader.bsky.social. Good read. Learned the Bucks jumped in and drafted him ahead of the Hawks, for whom that remains a sore subject. That's just 40-year-old karma. Payback for the Hawks, who signed Dr. J in 1972 even though the Bucks had drafted him.

@mirinfader.bsky.social did it again! I loved her latest book DREAM: The Life and Legacy of Hakeem Olajuwon. You can read my full review from Goodreads: www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

When I reached out to 2 of my favorite writers (@mirinfader.bsky.social and @mjpmke.bsky.social) to read an advanced version of my upcoming book, I couldn't have been more flattered by what they had to say. Pre-order Building the Milwaukee Bucks here! mcfarlandbooks.com/product/buil...

Gregg Popovich turns 76 today. Coach Pop is, by far, my dream profile/interview. I try every season to reach out to PR and haven’t had luck yet but maybe someday. Dream book subject, too. Manifesting here! 🤞🏼

This is beautiful. A great read

Five years. I wrote this because I wanted people to know and cherish Gigi’s story, too: bleacherreport.com/articles/287...

👀👀👀

@mirinfader.bsky.social's bio of #HakeemOlajuwon sets the standard for bios of famous athletes! It weaves UH and Rockets games and stories I remember with Dream's faith, relationships, and motivations, showing how transformative he has been in b-ball history. www.amazon.com/Dream-Life-L... #Rockets

Toni Morrison is my favorite writer/ author of all time so I was so excited to see this journal from Kindred Stories bookstore. Support local 💜💜

Always read @mirinfader.bsky.social
