- Terrific podcast
As Todd’s longtime friend and colleague, I always appreciated him as a writer, reporter and interviewer. And his zeal for the work. He brings those powers to this podcast in a wonderful way. He is so well-prepared and has such a knack for asking the right questions to get at the stories behind the stories … and the glue and camaraderie of all that makes sportswriting such a challenging and rewarding life.
