Episode 39 – H.I.G.H. (How I Got Here) Podcast | Ken Crites

Before becoming a familiar name at RotoWire, Ken Crites was simply navigating his own path, long before fantasy sports became what it is today.

This episode is a full rewind of that journey.

We go back to the beginning. The early stages, the environment he came up in, and the moments that gradually pulled him into the world of fantasy sports and content.

This is not about where he is now. It’s about how he got there.

In this episode:

• Life before fantasy sports was mainstream

• Early influences and interests that shaped his path

• How he first got pulled into fantasy sports

• The key decisions and turning points along the way

• The ups and downs that don’t get talked about

• What it takes to stay consistent long enough to build something lasting

Ken’s story is a reminder that success in any industry is rarely immediate. It’s built over time through curiosity, consistency, and sticking with it before it’s obvious to anyone else.
