Champaign Room Podcast with Special Guest Will Leitch.

Yes, that Will Leitch, him of Deadspin and New York Magazine, the New York Times, and once, the Daily Illini. Leitch is probably exhibit A in how the internet changed sports journalism, and the success story that everyone at today's DI strives for. He is also still a rabid and very knowledgeable Fighting Illini fan, and having him on to talk a half hour of hoops is probably the closest this blog will ever be to legitimacy. (First time I have ever interviewed anyone with their own Wikipedia article, for example.)

Leitch is here to calm everyone down on the whole "run Bruce out of town" meme, an argument that was given quite a boost by Illinois upsetting No. 5 Ohio State Tuesday night. So sit back and listen as we talk downstate inferiority complex, Andy Kaufman, and where Illinois is in the grand scheme of things.

Thanks again to Mr. Leitch for doing this, it was great, great fun.
