Description

In this episode of "Talking with..." Daniel sits down with Zito Madu.
They discuss Zito's football journey. From Nigeria to the United States, finding places to play in Detroit and surrounding areas. Giving up football to spite his father, walking on his university's team, playing professionally in Turkey, then joining SB Nation to write about the game. That led to a conversation on writing, reading, and the fun of being a writer. We touch on his love for Arsenal, AC Milan, and Marseille, then some Nigeria banter before the quick-fire round.
