Episode 6 – Greg Brainos

Oh, Greg Brainos. Where to begin? We’ve known each other for the better part of a decade, and it’s been my privilege to witness his transformation from choir boy to total fucking degenerate. No one does “total fucking degenerate” like Greg Brainos, and I’m proud to call him a friend.

We sat in the stands at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, scene of a couple of our more youthful misadventures, and chatted about his gambling problem, his stand-up comedy, how he’d rather be alone, and how all those things sort of tie together. I really put this guy on the couch. Also, I discover that play-by-play of a baseball game is not as easy as it looks.

(The Bulls defeated the hated Norfolk Tides by a final tally of 11-3.)
