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
[edit]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
[edit]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.
