24:07Now PlayingDave Portnoy has written his memoir, “Cancel Me if You Can” because: "ego." His book details his rise from starting a free gambling newspaper he handed out to commuters in Boston to a cultural lightning rod. He details his grudge against Roger Goodell (He'd have dinner with him to squash it). He accuses former Call her Daddy host Sofia Franklyn of orchestrating the Business Insider piece accusing him of sexual misconduct, putting him in a place "as low as I've ever been." He details how his once fraying relationship with fellow Barstool star, Dan "Big Cat" Katz and PFT Commentator was eventually mended after ESPN cancelled the Pardon My Take hosts' show after only one episode.
How is he not cancellable? Because he built his company "brick by brick" as the common man representative. He says Barstool is "The underdog versus the establishment."
