Brett McMurphy spent many years in the newspaper business, and before the Internet took hold his deadlines were once a day.
Now there's a deadline every minute when your job is breaking news in the ultra-competitive world of national college football media.
One summer a few years ago, there was supposedly nothing going on and McMurphy thought he scheduled a good time to play golf at the iconic Pebble Beach.
Turned out not so much.
The bombshell of USC and UCLA joining the Big Ten came out of nowhere, and McMurphy found himself playing the Pebble Beach Par 3 course with a phone glued to one ear.
He ended up typing out his story on his phone while sitting on a bench before he played the 18-hole course.
McMurphy, part of the On3 Network, joins the podcast to talk the life of always being plugged in and always trying to find the next scoop.
