Stephen Curry Joins Forces with Audible to Release The Greatest Sports Stories Never Told

Brought to you by Stephen Curry’s Unanimous Media, The Greatest Sports Stories Never Told explores the previously unknown tales behind some of the world’s most fascinating athletes, record-breakers and top competitors.

ABC and ESPN Sports Broadcaster, Joe Tessitore, takes us on a journey beyond baseball diamonds, football fields and hardwood courts to uncover the lives of people who have used sports to break boundaries, fight injustice—and sometimes change the world. 

From a wrongly incarcerated artist who turned paintings of golf courses into freedom, to the forgotten baseball career of a country music legend, these are amazing sports stories that most of the media missed. 

This series features the stories of the following athletes, not limited to: Aaron Taylor (NFL Champion), Waly Green (Table Tennis Pro Athlete), Chiney and Nneka Ogwumik (LA Sparks WNBA Basketball Players), Charley Pride (Memphis Red Sox of Negro American Baseball League), special guests like country music legends Darius Rucker and Jimmie Allen, and more. 

How did Wally Green grow from gang member to ping-pong great? In another life, would Country Music Hall of Famer Charley Pride have been a pro pitcher? Who is Valentino Dixon, and how did paintings of golf courses exonerate him from a murder he didn’t commit?
