'''Dusty O'Connell''' is the co-founder of [[Norse Code]] and served as
[[Arif Hasan]]'s original co-host from the podcast's launch in 2013 until 2018.

== Role on Norse Code ==
Dusty co-founded Norse Code and hosted it from 2013 until 2018.
In the show's early years he was Arif's primary on-air partner, providing the
everyman fan perspective alongside Arif's analytical approach. James Pogatshnik
initially filled in as interim host when Dusty was unavailable — a
arrangement that eventually became permanent when James took over as full-time
co-host after Dusty's departure.

Despite stepping back from regular duties, Dusty has remained a beloved presence
in the Norse Code universe, returning as a guest for milestone episodes and
special occasions. He appeared for the Episode 400 celebration, and
continues to join Arif and James for the annual Super Bowl prop bet episode —
one of the most anticipated recurring segments of the show's calendar.

== Background ==
From 2010 until 2014, Dusty volunteered at KGNU Public Radio in Boulder,
Colorado as a reporter, producer, and board operator. He is based in Aurora,
Colorado.
