Listen now
Description
We bring on Alex from Twitter (@AlexxLawson) for an excellent conversation on a variety of Bill Simmons related topics. First, we assess Bill's NFL content and agree that yes, it's fallen off. Why has it, and what can be done about it? What were the better days like? Next we talk how Bill's pod is today for NBA casuals - do we need as intense of NBA discussion as we have now? Why does Bill insist on the hamster wheel content? We then transition to some Bill Simmons subreddit talk. What's the current state of the sub - is it having a moment? Are we on a bender? We then look at some classic sub moments from Alex's Twitter and have a good laugh. We then question when and why we started rooting aggressively against Bill's teams. Then we analyze how Bill is just like Michael Scott, and wonder how much the success of Boston teams played into his career success.
