Andy Greenwald


This week Sam sits down with cult-critic Andy Greenwald. Andy is best known for his writing at Grantland–however he has done a plethora of work outside of this, including his writing for Spin and being a published author. In this interview, Sam and Andy talk about his work while also delving into the personal. They talk about how he met his best friend Chris Ryan, reading TV Guide as a kid, and the act of constantly reevaluating one’s life.

Show notes: 

  • Listen to Andy and Chris Ryan on The Watch over at The Ringer.
  • Legion, which Andy helped write, premieres Wednesday, February 8th on FX. More info.
