Dedicated is expanding. We are now filming our segments. We are doing some slick new video inside

the Sirius XM studios. So if you want to see me fixing the cocktails and having conversations

with our awesome guests, go to YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, or the Sirius XM app, and you can

see us in studio. Welcome to Dedicated with Doug Brunt.

You have just gained access to an exclusive insider's look at the lives and works of some

of your favorite authors and hear conversations with the world's greatest writers as they

discuss their writing lifestyle, creative process, latest work, and behind-the-scenes revelations.

Seth is a senior writer for ESPN, where he began 25 years ago. His investigative journalism

has broken stories in the NFL, including SpyGate Gate and Deflate

He's also a best-selling author. His first book, It's Better to Be Feared, took a close look at

history, and consumption and, like, great insights, too. Thank you, man. Appreciate it. Welcome to the

show. And we're going to have some delicious Johnny Walker Blue Label today. So I'll put that
