Another edition of the Fang’s Bites podcast. This one we do a little differently.
The first guest is Gail Sideman of Publiside, a public relations firm that coaches clients on the use of PR and social media. Among the topics we discuss:
- The proper use of social media
- Why some athletes still don’t use their brains before they tweet.
- How not to make the situation worse.
- The proper way to apologize.
- Why some coaches don’t seem to get Twitter.
- Some of the best tools for athletes to reach their fans.
Then I speak with Peter Schrager of Fox Sports. He was formerly the senior NFL writer for FoxSports.com. Now he’s a general assignment reporter for Fox Sports 1. Here’s are some of the issues we talked about:
- How he joined Fox Sports 1.
- The transition from being a print guy to becoming a TV reporter.
- The difference in covering the NFL as a writer and a TV reporter.
- His experiences in Sochi covering the Olympics for Fox Sports 1.
- His thoughts in covering the Phil Jackson/New York Knicks press conference.
- And his appearance this week on Crowd Goes Wild.
Overall, a fun podcast and a shorter version compared to last week. Find the podcast by doing a search for “Fang’s Bites” on iTunes. You can also find it on Podcast Garden where the podcast is hosted. You can also listen right now by clicking here.
