Damn! I can't find the date for this interview, but since it is at Nathans it happened before July 2009, when we closed. Ted Leonsis was a Nathans regular but we didn't know each other. I reached out to him the old-fashioned way, through email. He started right off with his Nathans stories and that was a delight. But he is a sports powerhouse in Washington and that was the thread of the interview. Over the years we've had a lot of sports figures appear for a Q&A Cafe interview: Fred Smith, Dan Snyder, John Riggins, Mark Ein, Stan Kasten, Johnny Holliday, Thom Loverro, Kevin Sheehan, George Michael, to name a few.
Ted is the consummate modern entrepreneur and mogul and, most of all, he came to play. There was no question that would have made him shy. We had fun. You will, too. Please give this interview a watch.
