- The Late Nick Mendola podcast, Seas3Ep16, “Interview with Grantland contributor Ben Austen”
On Wednesday afternoon, an article by Grantland writer Ben Austen picked up steam through social media. It touched on more than just the struggling Buffalo Bills franchise -- the 8,000+ word piece examined the direction of the city itself, the growth and passion of the Bills Mafia, the fanatical nature of Bills fans and considerably more. Here's Nick Mendola's interview with the author, so you can glean a behind-the-scenes look at what it took to create this journalistic masterpiece.
