Good journalism can still do what good journalism has always done—speak truth to power—but it requires shame to effect real change. If journalism is radiation, shamelessness is a cape made out of lead.

At my gastroenterologist’s office listening to these bangers with a bunch of people with rotten guts, and I’m going to say “more like super poopers, am I right” when No. 16 comes around. (Currently on S.O.S.) https://t.co/R1tSZaYQUv

Enjoyed this chat with Art about being a dad. For those of you who enjoyed the story about Charley and the Eiffel Tower last week (thank you!), this was recorded before it—like fatherhood itself, I had no idea what was to come.

@BurnleyOfficial @randomhouse 10. That hasn’t always been easy for me. I still get sad sometimes, and I still get angry. But I’ve never been in a better place than I am right now. And my dream reader is someone like you, wanting that and finding that, wherever you might.

@BurnleyOfficial @randomhouse 9. It’s not just a soccer book. Wright Thompson read it and said, “This is the truest book about sports fandom that has been or ever will be written.” He also said, “This is a book about being a human being on planet Earth.”

@BurnleyOfficial 7. You can work harder, you can care more deeply, and you can think differently. It doesn’t matter if your opponent is Man City, or if it’s trauma or anger or grief. If you’re diligent about those three facets of your game, of your life, you give yourself a chanc

@BurnleyOfficial 6. The great Sean Dyche was their manager at the time, and he became an unlikely source of inspiration for me in my quest to be a better man and live a better life. One of his mottos is Legs Hearts Minds—the three ways an underdog can win.

5. I also became seriously, maybe pathologically, invested in a little English soccer team: @BurnleyOfficial. They were my grandfather’s team, and my mum’s team (you might remember her English roast potatoes), and I made them my team.

4. I did some of the usual things. I went to therapy. I worked at being a more engaged father. I tried to push through my anger, and my sadness, by fighting to look at the world through a more optimistic lens. I tried to be gentle and kind.

3. Some of it I brought upon myself. I wasn’t always a good person. I was combative and anxious and insecure. I did more harm than good, at least in certain spaces. When many of you found me, writing those Twitter threads, I was trying to be better.

2. It’s not a collection of those old Twitter threads. It’s a memoir, spanning eight years of my life. Like too many people, like too many of you, I struggled during them. There was a lot of loss and grief, and I had some serious battles with my mental health.

1. Hello friends. It’s been a little while. I hope you’ve been well. I don’t know if you remember me, but I used to tell stories here to try to help people feel better. I’ve written a book, and I hope it does the same. I hope it’s one of the antidotes.
