Welcome to ‘The Island’! 

Nora Princiotti talks with a guest about an idea or topic that they feel strongly about, and the guest tries to persuade Nora to agree with them. Our first guest on ‘The Island’ is The Ringer’s Steven Ruiz, who tries to sell Nora on the idea that Trevor Lawrence will be a top-10 quarterback by the end of this NFL season. Will she join him on the island or sail elsewhere?

Steven Ruiz has been an NFL analyst and QB ranker at The Ringer since 2021. He’s a D.C. native who roots for all the local teams except for the Commanders. As a child, he knew enough ball to not pick the team owned by Dan Snyder—but not enough to avoid choosing the Panthers.
