Episode 84: Brendan Marks of The Athletic

I'm pleased to welcome Brendan Marks of The Athletic to the latest edition of the Sports Writers Inc. Podcast.

Brendan joined us from his home in Durham, N.C., to "geek out" about journalism and his recent story about Duke standout Cooper Flagg, who is certain to be the No. 1 pick in the upcoming NBA draft.

During my opening rant, I discussed this article by Harvey Araton of the New York Times. Araton, currently an obituary writer, waxes nostalgic about his days as a sports writer, producing copy on deadline at the Super Bowl.
