PFT joins KFC to talk about everything from the early days at Kissing Suzy Kolber, to interviews with Deadspin, to his thoughts on Dave Portnoy. 2AM time slots on college radio. The time SB Nation lowballed him. The time Deadspin interviewed him. Does he have beef with Darren Rovell? Does he secretly hate Barstool? The meteoric rise of PMT. His relationship with Big Cat and Hank. The evolution of his character and launching Macrodosing. The Barstool Van Talk incident. Did ESPN try to hire him? Will he ever drop the shades? The man and the legend, PFT Commenter, on Behind the Blog.

He used to get soooooo mad when someone said his name on air like Smitty did when he just said "Eric". Now that everyone knows his real identify and have seen his wedding pictures when he was new born fawn, dont see the reason for the glasses anymore. Must be annoying to wear all the time too.
