Hi, I’m Jason Kirk, a writer, editor, and podcaster. I’ve done sports stuff and other stuff. This newsletter’s a sloppy mix of the two.
I’m a senior editor for The Athletic, part of The New York Times Company.
My wife, Emily, and I are podcasting through this wild book called the Bible. People like our show! It has a Patreon!
In 2013, I co-launched the Shutdown Fullcast, the internet’s only CFB podcast.
My debut novel is coming soon. Stay tuned!
Previously in literature: I edited/co-wrote The Sinful Seven: Sci-Fi Western Legends of the NCAA.
I’m on Twitter, Instagram, Goodreads, Letterboxd, or wherever.
Also:
For a decade, I managed Vox Media’s best team-sports editorial group, leading everything from original reporting to multimedia feature packages.
I’ve written for Slate, Penguin Random House’s Hazlitt, Vox Media, USA Today’s For The Win, Atlanta Magazine, AtlantaFalcons.com, Uproxx, etc.
My appearances include This American Life, Reckon South, ESPN, CBS, the NFLPA, the Dan Le Batard Show, PFF, and Cheddar, plus many other shows.
I’ve worked in publishing, copy writing, and English education. “Running a grocery department while getting my English degree” is the part that amuses people.
