    Episode 87: Ryan Glasspiegel, New York Post

    Richard Deitsch unintentionally inspired me to test something out with podcasting production workflow, so after nearly 3 years a podcast. Helping with the test was former regular Ryan Glasspiegel, now a sports/entertainment writer for the New York Post. Topics covered include NBA ratings and USA Network as a big sports channel. And we had an in-depth conversation about Nielsen’s out of home viewing measurement which Ryan actually described as nerdy.... This is a public episode.

    Episode 86: Tony Reali, ESPN

    Tony Reali puts himself out there openly talking about life and dealing with anxiety. And he does it in an amazingly accessible way. I wanted to capture some of that experience on a podcast. Most of the podcast focuses on some of Tony’s struggles and thinking on eating and weight management. But there are stories, a very brief but very solid Wilbon imitation and we finish up with Tony talking... This is a public episode.

    Episode 85: Ben Strauss, The Washington Post

    Great to finally have Ben on the podcast! Ben has reported extensively about ESPN & politics in the aftermath of Dan Le Batard’s comments. The bulk of the podcast is on those topics but we talked about a few other sports media topics (DAZN’s “ChangeUp”, Sunday Ticket and The Athletic) in the last 1/3rd of the podcast. Ben’s recent deep dive on ESPN chief Jimmy Pitaro and ESPN’s policy around... This is a public episode.

    Episode 84, Jonathan Tannenwald, The Philadelphia Inquirer

    With the Women’s World Cup Soccer tournament beginning it was a pleasure to have the soccer beat writer from The Philadelphia Inquirer, Jonathan Tannenwald, back on the podcast. Topics discussed include the state of soccer, the state of MLS, how mostly it’s old white men like Zlatan Ibrahimović moving the MLS TV viewing and not the up and coming young Americans and South Americans, what it would take to get...

    05/27/2019

    Episode 83: Burke Magnus, ESPN

    A pleasure to have ESPN EVP of Programming & Scheduling Burke Magnus back on the podcast. Topics discussed include: will the launch of ACCN mean fewer ACC games on ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN News and ESPNU, the demands of Burke’s job, NBA commissioner Adam Silver’s comments about the NBA games being a TV show, what matters most in NBA finals (more games, not who’s playing), how the rise of OTT services...

    05/20/2019

    Episode 82: Kyle Brandt, NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football”

    It was a blast to talk to “Good Morning Football’s” Kyle Brandt. We talked his “The Real World” beginnings, the NFL draft, and Kyle’s energy level. Kyle notes that never having played in the NFL and having to work with the likes of Nate Burleson and Kurt Warner drives him to always be seeking validation. Kyle talked about the morning makeup of his co-workers (spoiler: according to Kyle, Nate is... This is a public episode.

    Episode 81: Nick Wright, FS1

    It was a pleasure to finally talk FS1’s Nick Wright. We talked about Nick letting his hair grow out (seriously!), what the rising & grinding schedule is like for someone with a 6:30A TV show and a 6P radio show (Nick has a dual-sleep schedule that works for him), NBA vs. NFL, “the ratings don’t matter to your life” (a Bryan Curtis shoutout on my podcast!), the NBA conference finals,...
