Episode 48: Cardinals Preview with Will Leitch
Yeah, I know we just previewed the Cardinals with Bellyscratcher, but if you have the opportunity to have a celebrity blogger like Will Leitch from the Deadspin.com on the show, you take it. I mean, we’re talking about the guy who glogged the Super Bowl!On tonight’s show we talk about how Deadspin began, how it grew to what it is today, and how they get the community to provide most of the content–and that’s just the stuff before we start talking about baseball.

So disappointed. I can’t believe you didn’t ask about how our posters changed his life. Let’s see, he launched in September, 2005. The posters were revealed in September, 2005. He linked to the posters and his site blew up. There is no chance that this is a coincidence.
I also can’t believe that you let it end on his “Go Cardinals.” You’re in charge, you get the last word. Cut his mic!
Cool interview. Will’s a cool dude, for a Cardinals fan. Seems like he’s kept a level head even with all of the overwhelming and immediate success that Deadspin has had. Great job!

I think the CTS edited out the part where I was all like, “hey, remember a year and a half ago when you liked to the posters? That was awesome.” 😛
