Draft:Matt McCusker

  • Comment: The issue is not that there is uncited content; what you want to look for is reliable, independent published sources with substantial content about the subject. The only source here that may count for that is the New Yorker piece, though the coverage of McCusker is minimal - Patreon statistics or citations to his podcast appearances don't count here.
