Chuck Klosterman

from House of Strauss Hosted by Ethan Strauss

I highly recommend Football, Chuck Klosterman’s latest book. In this podcast, we discuss his trenchant and personal exploration of the sport, along with the following topics… * Are we primarily writers or podcasters? * Many believe that young people are correct about the future, but few think they were smarter as young people * Will opinions change less often now that we are publicly anchored to opinions? * Would Chuck lie if his privacy was violated to procure damning information? * Why do we want coaches to be scary assholes? * Chuck asks me if I scream at my kids * Why Mike Holmgren screamed at Andy Reid * The media driven ego battle between Bill Belichick and Tom Brady * Why television dominates our sports memories for games we saw in person * Do we want football to stay American? * Has history forgotten Roger Staubach? * Chuck has been a closeted Dallas Cowboys fan House of Strauss is a reader-supported publication.
