Everyone is Stupid Except Me

In this episode, I welcome my good friend and fellow baseball writer Jared Wyllys as my guest. Jared has been on an interesting journey the last few years, going from posting on a baseball message board to the BBWAA. We talked about that, his biggest mistake as a credentialed reporter, his wife's amazing cooking, and their decision to foster and adopt their four children. There was so much for us to chat about, we could probably follow up with another episode!

After a short hiatus, I return with episode six of Everyone is Stupid Except Me. With me as my guest is Tommy Stokke, the former director of content for the now-defunct sports media network, FanRag Sports. Tommy and I discuss how he gave me my first paying writing job, what happened at FanRag, his new job at Bet Chicago, New Girl, gambling, and more.

Scheduling conflicts delayed this episode, but it's worth the wait! My friend Larry Scott, a co-host on a previous podcast of mine, joined me to rank the top-10 episodes of our favorite show, The Simpsons. I even cut in some hilariously cromulent clips to embiggen your listening experience.

For this episode, Russ Dorsey joined me to chat about his career and a wide array of other topics. Russ is a reporter in Chicago for MLB.com and one of the best young writers in the business. But there's always more to know, so I asked him about Chicago food, his favorite Disney movies, learning Spanish, music, and plenty more.
