In episode one, I sat down with The Stiffs’ EIC, Adam Mares, to discuss his ambitious audio-documentary on Will Barton. Why was Adam compelled to tell Thrill’s story? What did he learn in the process? Will there be a second documentary in the same style?
Plus, Adam reveals his most embarrassing moment as a media member and gets real with me about his biggest fears. -
In this episode, Ryan is joined by Denver Stiffs writer Daniel Lewis. The two discuss Will Barton's injury, the numbers behind Denver's defense thus far, and play Basketball 'Would You Rather.'

The Dig - Taking a Leap (Episode 1)
In our first episode we break open the narrative of the Denver Nuggets "taking a leap" this season. We'll look at where the Nuggets have come from, digest quotes from within the organization on their own expectations, and project what the first three games of the season mean for the season's outlook.
We're joined later by Ladd of Sephora to dissect the Western conference and where the Nuggets fit within it. And Jeremy turns Nick into a guest on his own show as he interviews him about having had the same surgery that Michael Porter Jr. did and what we can expect from MPJ this season.
The Dig is a bi-weekly show, hosted by Nick Hertzog and co-hosted by Jeremy Poley of the Denver Stiffs, that attempts to pull a new single narrative from the Denver Nuggets' season to explore in each episode.
They'll be joined by special guests along the way to help expand our idea of that narrative. One week it may be a doctor to explore a narrative of "injuries", the next week it may be a writer to explore the narrative of "narratives". Another week it might even be Nick's grandmother to explore the narrative of "kicking butt and taking names". -
