From Studio North in Portland, Maine
Willys was born in New York, grew up mostly in Connecticut, and got whatever positive feelings he has about the Giants from Michael Strahan, Tiki Barber, and his grandpas.
Along with Knicks, the Gettleman-Era Giants play a key role in yinyanging his otherwise near-utopian Yankees fandom. Will this change as Joe Schoen takes over the Giants and the Yanks appear stuck in place? Maybe so.
He recently moved back east after living in Northern California for over ten years. He’s now largely relieved of the burden of clarifying that his podcast discusses the New York, rather than San Francisco, Giants.
He loves sports uniform design, burritos, broccoli, and jazz.
In real life, Willys is a professional writer and the co-author of Leadership Is a Relationship: How to Put People First in the Digital World with Michael S. Erwin.
