Description

This week on A Waste of Time with ItsTheReal, we finally welcome former publisher of Grantland and The Awl, as well as our great friend, David Cho to the podcast! David talks being in the studio with Justin Timberlake, Pharrell and Timbaland, listening to Kanye complain about his dentist, playing Jenga with Jay Z, and going to dinner at Tyrese's personal backyard Benihana. David discusses growing up as a Korean child in Tennessee, meeting CollegeHumor founder Ricky Van Veen in college and moving to NYC, starting Gawker competitor The Awl with no financial backing, building the network, and right when it started to turn a profit, leaving for a dream job: building Bill Simmons' sports and pop culture site with ESPN, Grantland. All that plus getting confused with the artist David Choe, awkward handshakes, Pepsi's Kendall Jenner commercial, throwing yourself a birthday party, and much more!
