He's created a cult following online designed around the unique appeal of sports and pop culture from the 70s and 80s. Ricky Cobb of @Super70sSports joins the Late Night Happy Hour, talking the origin story of his site, why baseball players with glasses seem to be such a fertile ground for excellent Twitter comedy, the reason nostalgia plays so well online, and much more.
He's a sociology professor by trade, so Cobb understands how these sort of communal experiences -- things like Gatorgum! -- can bring people together in ways you wouldn't expect.
Fun conversation with a guy who has carved out a unique space in the online sports moment we're in. And it's a pretty big space, too.
