Dave Nemetz is the founder of digital publications Bleacher Report and Inverse, both of which have been acquired. He's also a father to two kids he adores more than anything and got to spend way more time with during the pandemic than he might have bargained for. He even drove across the country with his family twice, though he admits his kids' nap time and modified screen time (on approved apps) are definitely sacred and very much needed. You can follow Dave on Twitter @davenemetz or read his essays and subscribe at davenemetz.con.
