It would be amazing if Sportsnet would put together a weekly podcast of all of Friedman's radio and TV appearances (though perhaps less relevant now). Sure, there would be a fair bit of repetition as he'd likely address some of the same league-wide topics several times, but I would eat up as much content from EF as possible. Hell, just get an intern to read his 30 thoughts aloud too.
Better yet, I'd love Friedman to do a podcast of sorts; of course the priority for SN is to generate content for the radio, but they could build structure it can be easily used by various affiliates. With the right partner/interviewer to take him through his 30 thoughts and any other hot topics of the week, I think you've got a can't miss 1 hour program to slot into each station's weekly schedule. It would be nice in place of Pinder's 9-10am hour once a week.
It would solve a lot of problems, including helping EF's schedule. It's probably best done live (for a certain timeslot in Toronto), but it doesn't have to be, which could offer a little bit more control and leave 'Malkin' situations on the cutting room floor.
Anyone know what other cities have sportsnet radio and use EF for these kinds of interviews?
