This edition of the Life of Fitz podcast features host Tim Fitzgerald calling his friend Kelly Stewart in Las Vegas. Kelly was the first person Fitz called when this podcast debuted in March of 2020 and now he ends his second season of Life of Fitz by making Kelly his first and 50th guest to appear. Kelly is a Kansas State graduate who rose to fame as an oddsmaker and sports gambling analyst in a predominately male-dominated profession. She has worked with a number of national media entities through the years, but earlier this year, she was hired by ESPN. That came undone before it started when some online trolls dug up some tweets from 2012 that were long ago deleted. ESPN terminated her before she started and Kelly soon found herself in demand by other sports media entities. Recently, she was hired by Barstool Sports to join their gambling team, and with Barstool known for its no-holds-barred approach to media entertainment, it seems as if Kelly, who is known to be outspoken, has found the right place for herself.
