Interview – Joe Ovies

Listen here.

If you follow sports in the Triangle, you know who Joe Ovies is. Joe was kind enough to stop by to talk about how he got started in sports media, his new podcast with Joe Giglio (which is great), his prior podcasting experience, the outlook for the North Carolina football teams this season and the problems facing the ACC as a whole. We also discuss the brutal schedule Duke has this season. This was a very informative talk that I know you’ll enjoy.

And as if all the sports weren’t enough, we spend a good portion of the interview talking about what we all really care about, Star Wars. SPOILER ALERT – there are plenty of spoilers in our discussion. During our Star Wars discussion, Joe and I have a debate about the greatness of Chopper, the droid from Rebels. If you aren’t familiar with Chopper, he’s the best character from Rebels and arguably the GOAT of Star Wars droids. Seriously, just look at his body count. Look, folks, there was a war on and Chopper got results. To paraphrase Ramsey from The Great Escape, a soldier has a sworn duty to harass the enemy. Chopper did that. And then some.

There’s a little bit for everyone to enjoy in this episode. I mean, I think that. But I’m fairly biased.

Let me know what you think about what we think in the comments, on Mastodon, on Reddit, on Post, on Instagram, or on Twitter.

As always, Go Duke!
