Show Notes
South Side Sox Podcast 23 is our first-time crossover event, as the boys from Sharing Sox wander over to the mothership podcast to chat on some coverage esoterica.
- The role that entertainment plays in sportswriting
- How the White Sox see their fans, and the media that covers the team
- The insular nature of how the White Sox approach anyone outside of 35th & Shields
- Jerry Reinsdorf’s disinterest in the fan base
- How the conservative nature (personal conservatism, not political) of the White Sox office limits the team’s popularity
- Is negative attention better than no attention at all (at least I would argue, yes)
- We’ve had house pet delays and even recording dropouts, but look for the first “sunset delay” in this podcast
