Jeremy Schaap is one of ESPN&#39;s most decorated journalists. An 11-time Emmy award winner for his groundbreaking reporting, Schaap joined the Press Pass Podcast to walk us through the early days of his media career, which started very early indeed at the desk of his father, Dick Schaap. Schaap discusses the past, present, and future of Outside the Lines and the E:60 series, both of which will be a part of his notable legacy at the Worldwide Leader of Sports, and explains why he considers the reporting he did on the plight of migrant laborers in Qatar to be among the most important of his career. An experienced sports journalist who has (literally) been all over and written about some of the most important stories of this century, Schaap has plenty to ruminate on and a lot to say about it all.

Dom Cosentino is an NFL senior features writer for theScore. He joined the Press Pass podcast to discuss his journey through sports media and how he ended up at theScore starting all the way back in Pittsburgh, when he&#39;d publish a sports newsletter out of his parents&#39; basement as a kid. After taking a job with a videoconferencing company out of college, Dom broke into the industry on a local township beat and wrote articles about the town&#39;s favorite pig dying. He moved on to the high school beat for a decade before deciding to try his hand at the online media industry, joining Deadspin as an editorial assistant. From there, he transitioned to covering the Jets as a full-time beat writer before ending up back at Deadspin, and was part of the staff that quite en masse after editor-in-chief Barry Petchesky was fired. Now he&#39;s at theScore.
