Rusillo is going to end up being richer than Van Pelt and all the Espn execs who used to treat him like a special needs kid with a weekend gig.

I don't know. If it weren't involving his company, Simmons would say the addition of Zach Lowe to the Ringer market corrected Russillo.

This one hurts for Simmons, but his Barstool stuff should be ok.

I hope he still does the “Life Advice” segment. Always good stuff.

SVP & Russillo was the best.

Ive since listened to him off and on. I did enjoy his sunday spots with BS. They were good together on football and basketball.

Ive never listened to anything Barstool other than pizza reviews.

It "kind of" sucks, but I honestly had stopped listening to his regular pod a long time ago. I liked him and Simmons during the NBA season and when he would occasionally show up on the Rewatchables, but that's about it. Good luck to him.

I remember him saying he moved to L.A. to work on being a screenwriter. Not sure if that will ever happen, but hearing what he's going to be doing with Barstool, he still wants to be more than a podcaster.

I could see Ceruti going.

Kyle probably isn't leaving the Ringer.

Ryen needs to talk way less about the NBA for his old fans from the SVP days to listen.

But he can’t help it because he loves basketball too much.

Damn I really liked him and Simmons, but I guess Lowe will fill that roll.

Sounds like RR will have his own company where he can do a podcast that is licensed by barstool as well as other media stuff that he’s been trying to do. I’ll still listen
