Evan welcomes fellow Tufts Jumbo Daniel Barbarisi to SOCIALLY AWKWARD. Now a full-time author, Dan has a new book out about fantasy sports called Dueling with Kings. Hear how he saw the fantasy sports explosion before it happens. Plus, hear how he ended up as the beat reporter for the New York Yankees at the Wall Street Journal for five seasons. How did he get there? Did his role at The Tufts Daily play a part? And did Evan and Dan ever meet in college? All those questions will be answered and then Dan will ask one question of Evan. Awkward guaranteed!

With the help of Facebook friend/sister Wendy Wecksell, Evan interviews his dad. What does Donald Trump have to do to win his Republican dad’s vote? (4:30) Who’s on his Mount Rushmore of Republicans? (7:29) We also get his take of world affairs, Brexit, his disdain for GPSes and meeting Mike & The Mad Dog. (10:14)

Evan also asks Dad for his opinions on texting, Lady Gaga and Charlie Rose while uncovering his surprising gambling history! Evan also coaxes his dad to rank his kids in order, or at least as drivers. (23:03) And what is his dad’s concept of Uber? We then wrap up with why he is so fascinated with World War II, and what is his advice to millenials?

The awkward was definitely at a modest boil throughout. Enjoy!
