PODCAST: ON THE DL

 
 

Michael Wilbon joins the show in a special episode. 


We talk about his career writing for the Washington Post and working with ESPN’s PTI and NBA coverage and how he’s been able to balance that with his new job - dad.


We chat about his first pitch at the Cubs game and if he ever thought he’d be as big a celebrity as he’s become. 


We also talk about where he sees the future of journalism and if he feels pressure being one of the prominent black voices in the nation.


We get into an interesting debate about the validity of sports blogs, and dovetail that into his recent activity on said blogs, including his photos with porn stars and his ‘scandal’ about wearing no pants at PTI.


We talk about Kornheiser, and their relationship and actually get into a little sports, including Brett Favre and the Olympics.


We close with a report on Wilbon’s health, how his lifestyle has changed and his responsibility as a black father in America in the wake of his recent heart attack.
