    My Block 121 Ep 1 NY Times Best Selling Author Nunyo Demasio

    In this episode, I'll be having a conversation with Nunyo Demasio, a New York Times Best Selling author renowned for his book "A Football Life." We'll delve into Nunyo's remarkable journey, starting from his role as a news office new clerk to his pivotal moment covering Stephon Marbury. This experience paved his path to becoming a beat writer for the Seattle Supersonics, even as he turned down a highly coveted position at the Washington Post. Nunyo's story takes an interesting turn as he finds a second opportunity at the Washington Post, this time covering the Washington Redskins. He openly discusses his clash with Dan Snyder and how he ingeniously transformed that situation into a role with Sports Illustrated. Leveraging his position at Sports Illustrated, Nunyo seized the chance to spend time with Bill Parcells, an experience that ultimately culminated in the creation of his book "A Football Life." We also discussed one of the last interviews between the late NBA Commissioner David Stern and Nunyo.This episode was produced by Anthony B, Rayna Findley and engineered by Kevin Randolph.
