Warren "Gurn Jr." Matthews
Producer. Creator. Nashville resident. Small-town Alabama kid who built a daily digital show from scratch and hasn't stopped since.
Raised in small-town Alabama, navigated the strictures of boarding school in Virginia, played D-III noseguard, coached, and eventually landed in Nashville — usually seen wearing one of his interesting ball caps.
He convinced two 60-something sports shock jocks to leave their paying radio gig and join a daily live digital show. Built the platform from scratch, launched it quickly, and has since produced 400+ episodes of Longshore & McKnight — and counting.
Dedicated and loyal to a fault. Quirkily creative. Known by friends and family as the kid with "great ideas" — some of which have been screw-off faux Fabergé eggs with a middle finger inside gifted to stand-up comedians.
Highest calling? The Barstool Sports Production team. His track record? Pretty compelling evidence he'd fit right in.
