It’s pilot season. Not so much on TV, where the writers are on strike. But certainly at Sellout Crowd, where we’re premiering a whole bunch of podcasts. “Thundering Herd” is the latest, and the goal is to give you some insight and perspective on the Thunder and to have a good time in the process.

In the first episode, I’ll mostly talk about a subject I’m less comfortable with: Myself. Like any pilot, this is mostly about establishing the characters. I’ll give you a sense of what to expect from the show and the rest of my coverage. We’ll talk about my previous seasons on the Thunder beat, what I’ve been up to since and why the timing was right for a return.
