Kristine Leahy, a reporter on NBC’s American Ninja Warrior and the co-host of The Herd on FS1, joins the podcast this week. We discussed:
What time do they get to the office to start prepping The Herd? What does she think is the biggest misconception about Colin Cowherd? How far apart are they in the big studio?
Looking back on her career trajectory, it seems linear, but was there ever a time where she felt unsure about her path?
What’s the craziest athletic thing she’s seen on American Ninja Warrior?
Hope you enjoy!
Disclosure: The Big Lead’s editor-in-chief Jason McIntyre appears with Colin Cowherd on FS1’s Speak for Yourself.
