Description
Larry Krueger, proprietor of The Krueg Show, and former Bay Area radio mainstay, might know a thing or two about succeeding locally. A couple years ago he was pushed out of his role at KNBR, at which point he started building his 49ers-centric Youtube channel. It’s been a big success, currently at over 40,000 subscribers and rapidly gaining. As a fan of his channel, I wanted insight into the comeback story behind it and Larry’s overall perspective on media. Pod discussion includes, but is not limited to: * How advice from comedian Al Madrigal helped Larry build The Krueg Show * Larry is so granular with his analysis and yet it works on a big scale * The massive gap between America’s passion for football and actual knowledge * Why people feel comfortable second guessing football coaches vs. other sports * Larry’s disagreement with Grant Cohn * Larry’s since resolved fight with “The Coach” * We both object to a Dan Patrick take on Kyle Shanahan in the Super Bowl * How the Warriors handle the media * Larry gives us his take for dream 49ers 1st round pick and realistic 1st round pick House of Strauss is a reader-supported publication.
