It's been a minute since we've written anything about our old pal Jenni Carlson.
Back in the old TLO Brah Stool days, she and her mind-numbingly boring sports columns at The Oklahoman were frequent targets of our well-deserved lampooning and criticism, but over the years, as her relevance and visibility – thanks, social media algorithms! – has withered away like The Oklahoman reader base, our interest has left with it.
Knowing that, I was a bit surprised but not surprised when I discovered yesterday that Jenni's expanding her role with the new and improved Oklahoman, and now covering a beat that's more her style – writing vague and meandering pieces about old chunks of concrete found in historic Oklahoma City neighborhoods.
