FanGraphs Audio: Patrick Dubuque, The Weeping Sportswriter

Episode 309
Guest Patrick Dubuque is like Greek philosopher Heraclitus insofar as both possess (or possessed, as the case may be) a melancholy temperament. One way they differ is that Heraclitus contracted dropsy, covered himself in manure, and then died like that — pastimes with which Dubuque is barely even on nodding terms.
