Ok y’all, also… just a heads up in case it doesn’t sound as super crystal clear as one would like. I got a new microphone, but I didn’t know how to use it that well when I interviewed Sandro (I had it sitting in the wrong spot).  Hopefully I don’t sound too ridiculous, especially since I interviewed a guy whose job is to make people sound good. Oh, if y’all can recommend some good headphones, that’d be hella fly.  Tweet @ me. Anyyyyywayyyyy…

Alright, and with that… here’s my conversation with Sandro Anello.

28 Oct 2022Get Real Episode 63: Austin Thompson01:18:14

Welcome back to another episode of Get Real with Kacey Kasem - the podcast that takes a look behind the scenes of the fantasy football industry through interviews with analysts and content creators in the space.  On this episode, I chatted with Austin Thompson, someone you know from his work with Eat. Sleep. Fantasy. where he is an editor (while also putting out his own content).  We talked about a ton of stuff in this one including being mistaken for Darrius Rucker, wanting to have a stat associated with his name someday, watching cooking shows, liking AJ McCarron, search engine optimization, why he decided to start putting out content, plus much more.  Check Austin out on Twitter @AustinWroteThat.  You should also follow me on Twitter @thekaceykasem and the podcast @GetReal_Pod.  This podcast is a proud member of the DAP Network.  You can subscribe to the Dynasty Addicts Podcast Network on whatever podcast platform you use to get all the brilliant DAP shows (including this one) in one convenient spot.    Thank you again for all the support you have given this podcast.

Oh yeah — I meant to mention this as well — I can’t believe I’ve recorded this many podcasts without addressing it before — but I have three dogs.  So yes, they will show up in the background of this episode.  They show up in almost every episode.  It’s not a real podcast until a dog starts barking.  Anyway…with that out of the way… here is my conversation with Austin Thompson.

Support the show - if you’d be down to help support the show, I’d be forever grateful.  I don’t get paid to put this show out; I just really want to provide great resources for others in the space.  If you’ve found this pod to be helpful at all, feel free to support monetarily, but if you can’t do that at the moment — if you’d just share the podcast with others, it’d be appreciated so so so much!  Thank you, and stay rad!

18 May 2022Get Real Episode 52: Chris Allen01:31:29

Hello all! Welcome to a new episode of Get Real with Kacey Kasem.  This episode features Chris Allen, a contributor for 4for4 Fantasy Football, Football Guys, and NBC Sports Edge.  He’s a writer, podcaster, and weather guru.  It was a blast talking with Chris about homebrewing, being a Bengals fan, coming from a year-round sports family, being a minority in the fantasy football space, who he’d want as a celebrity co-host, and much more.  You can follow Chris on Twitter @ChrisAllenFFWX.  Feel free to follow me on Twitter @thekaceykasem as well as the podcast @GetReal_Pod.  This podcast is a proud member of the DAP Network.  A little housekeeping before we head into this episode — you know, this podcast is a few episodes in, and there is no monetization of this pod at all.  Mostly, that lies on me since I can barely put a show out… let alone find sponsors.  So, for now, if you could just help spread the word on this podcast by sharing on social media, I would be more appreciative than you even know. And with that out of the way, here’s my conversation with Chris Allen.

27 Mar 2023Get Real Episode 79: Don't Pour My Milk (Kat & O)01:05:22

Hey everyone, welcome back to another episode of Get Real with Kacey Kasem.  It’s the podcast taking a look behind the scenes of the fantasy sports industry through interviews with some of your faves in the business.  I was really excited to sit down with my guests — yes, plural — for this one.  The guests on this episode are Kat and O from the Don’t Pour My Milk podcast.  I met Kat at The Fantasy Football Expo in 2022, and when he showed me the podcast — my jaw dropped.  It is so good that I immediately told Kat they’d have to join the show.  So I hope y’all have as great a time learning about these two guys as I did.  We talked about a ton of stuff on this episode — including the meaning behind the name “Don’t Pour My Milk”, setting themselves apart from other podcasts, who is the better fantasy football player, loopholes in leagues, why they started playing fantasy football together, plus a lot more.

Please make sure to give O and Kat a follow on YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok @dontpourmymilk. https://www.youtube.com/@DontPourMyMilk You can follow me on Twitter @thekaceykasem and the podcast @GetReal_Pod.  Feel free to contact me on Twitter to let me know you’re listening.  I’d love to interact more with the listeners. Get Real is a proud member of the Dynasty Addicts Podcast Network (the DAP Network, if you will).

To all of you listeners who have been nothing but supportive throughout the last few years, I appreciate you.  This podcast is doing things I never thought possible, and one of my favorite things in the entire world is knowing that it helps others.  Believe me, I talk to anyone and everyone who will listen to me talk about this podcast because it means so much to me.  I love getting to learn more about people in this space, and it feels great to be able to talk with so many cool people.  Just wanted to say thanks again because I don’t think I say it enough.  And also, thank you for all the support during the FSWA Awards.  Although Get Real didn’t end up winning, a huge shout out to former guest Pat Mayo for taking home the honors.  

And with all of that out of the way… here’s my conversation with Kat and O from Don’t Pour My Milk on Get Real with Kacey Kasem.

This is long. I'm sorry! But wanted to let y'all know that I was having a bit of internet trouble for a brief period of time1. I got it all fixed up… But I have subpar editing skills.

23 Feb 2021Get Real Episode 14: Matthew Berry01:57:36

Hey there cool kids! I am extremely upset I haven't been able to put out an episode of Get Real with Kacey Kasem in a while.  There's been a lot going on here with my computer being in the shop for a month and counting as well as the crazy Texas winter storm that hit last week.  

Now I am super happy to announce this week's episode features the face of ESPN Fantasy Football, Matthew Berry (@TheMatthewBerry on Twitter).  TMR stopped by to talk about all kinds of topics including his rise in the industry, advice to those just starting out, athletes and their opinions on fantasy football, his New York Times best-selling book, and much much more.  You'll want to listen to the whole thing because we had a blast.
