The Dig - Taking a Leap - Denver Nuggets Season Preview, MPJ expectations, more! Oct 23, 2018

Show notes

The Dig - Taking a Leap (Episode 1) In our first episode we break open the narrative of the Denver Nuggets "taking a leap" this season. We'll look at where the Nuggets have come from, digest quotes from within the organization on their own expectations, and project what the first three games of the season mean for the season's outlook. We're joined later by Ladd of Sephora to dissect the Western conference and where the Nuggets fit within it. And Jeremy turns Nick into a guest on his own show as he interviews him about having had the same surgery that Michael Porter Jr. did and what we can expect from MPJ this season. The Dig is a bi-weekly show, hosted by Nick Hertzog and co-hosted by Jeremy Poley of the Denver Stiffs, that attempts to pull a new single narrative from the Denver Nuggets' season to explore in each episode. They'll be joined by special guests along the way to help expand our idea of that narrative. One week it may be a doctor to explore a narrative of "injuries", the next week it may be a writer to explore the narrative of "narratives". Another week it might even be Nick's grandmother to explore the narrative of "kicking butt and taking names".
