Author: Audioboom Studios February 24, 2025 Duration: 1:12:27
This week, Jason is joined by sports journalist and Summer House personality, West Wilson!
In this episode, West dives into how he defines himself during the current season of Summer House, and reveals what happened the day his severance from Bleacher Report came through. He breaks down the story behind a napkin contract for a podcast idea and shares the key question he asked during a Bleacher Report x NHL call, which ultimately got him banned by the NHL.
West also discusses his work with Complex, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the journalism world, his experience at Bleacher Report, and how he found himself on a dating show with Complex. He opens up about being on three different types of payroll within journalism and reflects on what makes Summer House stand out from other reality TV shows. The episode wraps up with rapid-fire questions about life in the house, business finance, and more.
West reveals all that and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!
