From the desolate and forlorn wasteland of Pandemerica, Tender Bloodsport returns with season two because, well, what the hell else are we going to do? And we are kicking it off with a bout of BLEAK versus HOPEFUL. Austin Ray (@austinlouisray) has contributed to Good Beer Hunting, Rolling Stone, the Oxford American, and one terrible gas station periodical. He misses Creative Loafing. He faces off against Steven Williams, an Atlanta native who has written for gutwrench., Naked City, and many other live lit shows. He also plays bass if anyone's interested in starting a band. This episode also features a pep talk from co-producer Dani Herd, because we could all use that right about now.
