Episode Notes
ESPN writer and bestselling author Seth Wickersham joins the Connecticut Scoreboard Podcast to talk about his new book, Be on That Hill: Stories from the Summits of Sport. Seth takes us behind the scenes of putting together a collection of his best work and how he decided which stories made the cut.
We also dive into what it’s really like to become deeply embedded with the people he covers, and the moments when he’s found himself thinking, “I can’t believe I’m actually here witnessing this.” Seth shares some of the people who surprised him most once he got behind the scenes and explains why he believes readers still crave deeply reported stories in an era of 30-second attention spans.
